Update, I guess.

Wow, it's been since April since I wrote in here. Obviously, it's October 17 and so much has happened. Let me just run it all down for you...

I got married! I am now Tiffany Livingston and am loving married life- it's not too much different than it was before but its nice to sign my new name on all my paperwork.

My parents got one of the New York puppies and his name is Sirocco. They are over-the-moon happy and so is this little pup...



I passed my LCSW exam and am officially a licensed social worker. No pic for that, though.

Yesterday I had six years clean and will be celebrating on Saturday. Woot!

Here is probably the most exciting wonderful news... I am getting a therapy dog who will be my pet and will work with me in attempt to reach the boys I work with. His name is Rowan and he's from a fantastic organization called NEADS. Here he is:
I will go to NEADS for a week beginning on October 29 (11 days but who's couting??) and will train with him and learn how to use him in therapy.

Thank you HP for all these gifts. My life has never been so full!

Hello to you too!


 What a cute little guy, right?

I'm at school right now, and I am getting really tired!!! Last night I was awake from 3:30 am - 5:30 am. At one point, around 5 am, I thought to myself: Maybe I should just stay awake, because it is going to be so hard to wake up in the morning. But eventually, I went to sleep. And was wide awake when I woke up this morning. I felt a little bad for waking up Jason so many times.

I've been feeling really anxious lately. I have been eating less, and I think that is adding to the anxiety. I almost feel like eating calms the jitters, like- physically. Is that bizarre? Yesterday I drank coffee and it was awful. I don't know if this is just all in my head? Maybe writing about it will take some of its power away. The other option is to hold it all in and be anxious about being anxious. Boo.

Part of this anxiety is surely the wedding- More specifically, the crazy woman who is in charge of planning events at my venue. They changed the package, which makes it not really a package anymore. Everything was included before - cake, flowers, etc. Now, there's just basics, like water and bread. The woman in charge is so unorganized- After discussing my old package, for which I signed a contract, we had worked out a plan that she would credit me for certain items- cake, flowers, etc. She emailed me yesterday saying she had no idea about my having the other package, because she is not the one who made the reservation for me. So, what the heck?! <-- Credit to Katie for inspiring me to fix up my foul language.

There are a few other bumps in the road that I have encountered on my journey to being a Livingston, but I don't want to give it away all at once. Stay tuned, friends. Or Friend. Or just Katie!
