Hello everyone!!
Today is our 2 year wedding anniversary!! We are not doing anything special. Just spending the day together. Nick has found out he will be going to a different ship in March, and will be underway for 4-5 months starting in March. Nothing is really happening with us this month. We got new neighbors upstairs who insist on leaving their dogs out on the balcony 24/7. So their dogs are peeing and pooping out there. And now we can not go out on our balcony without worrying about getting peed on, and that is if you can stand the smell. I did not think that after 3 days of that, it would smell as bad as it does. We have went to the front office about it 2 times. The first time they sent them a letter and we were the second people to complain about their dogs. The last time they sent someone to talk to them and check everything out. I don't think the person has visited them yet because nothing has changed. This week is full of nice sunny days, where I can open up windows and the sliding door. But now I can't unless I want the whole apartment to smell of dog pee.
We found out that a friend of ours is going to have a baby. Which is a surprise because he had always said marriage was for crazy people but then he got married. Now 2-3 months later, they are having a baby. I can not see this guy as a father, but he will be a great father.
Other than that not much else is happening. I'll update next month.
Made for the family and friends of Nicholas and Sarah Dean. Keep up with them and know what's going on in their life. Sarah will try to update it as much as possible.

Happy New Year's
Hello everyone!
As you all know we went to Ohio for New Year's. We got back last night, so today will be spent unpacking and sitting up all our new gifts. We had told our families not to send us our Christmas gifts, we would open them there. His parents got us the attachments to make our PS3 and PS3 move. We also got some video games for it, picture frames, PJ's, and clothes. My parents got us some new towels for the bathroom and kitchen, some measuring cups for the kitchen, a pillow pet, and a snuggie. Poor Nick, ended up with 2 snuggies. My mom got him one then his parents got him one. We got gifts for those who told us what they wanted. My mom got Donkey Kong Country Returns for the wii, my sister a 25 dollar gift card, his mother got a necklace, sister-in-law got a purse, his brother got a LED flashlight/lighter key chain and a "I support zombies" magnet, we got their daughter a pillow pet, and for his dad we got him some camo mittens.
We had a good time. I got to see my best friend/cousin who I haven't seen since graduation, because every time I'm in town she's at school and she knows how I am. School comes first. I also got to see my aunt who I hadn't seen since May 2009. Other than that I seen the same people I always do. Nick however, seen the same people just less than usually. His one friend who is over at his parents like every day when we are in town, is moving into his own house so when he wasn't working he was packing or cleaning. His other friend came over twice, and bought his 3 year old daughter with him every time, but that did not stop him for walking her in then walking out. Without even asking if me or my mother-in-law would watch her. However, he works two jobs so he wasn't able to come over as often. It just upsets me that his family and friends, who have kids think that because we are in town and don't have kids of our own, that means we or just myself will watch their kid anytime of any day. If we say no we are bad friends, if we say yes we can't go do what we want.
Well I am going to get off of here and try to fix my hair then unpack and stuff.

Christmas
Hello All!
I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas. Nick&I did not decorate our apartment or get a Christmas tree. We even decided not to get each other anything, since we get each other a lot of stuff throughout the year. Also, because we are going back to Ohio on the 30th we decided not to have any of our Christmas gifts sent here, so that our family and friends could see us open their gifts, and we could see them open the gifts we got for them. Don't worry though, it wasn't sad around here. We cooked some holiday treats, and we took time to remember that Christmas isn't about the gifts, it's about spending time with loved ones&remembering that Christmas is Jesus Christs birth day.
For those of you thinking, wait you have PCOS&need to be careful about what you eat. Don't worry. We used, low fat, fat free, sugar substitutes, ect. So they are all healthy, and guess what, no one could taste the difference. Today, the day after Christmas we are being hit by a nice snow storm. The Norfolk area is expected to get 10-15 inches, and the Virginia Beach area 5-10 inches.
Well that is all for now! I will write again after New Years!

Thanksgiving
This Thanksgiving I decided to make my first turkey and it turned out great! We had Nicks friend Mark Cornish over. Mark has been over every weekend for 3 weeks now. He is new to the ship and lives on it. Nick and I are considering asking him to live with us. Of course since he is not getting BAH we will only ask him for money to do his laundry, money for groceries,and that he pick up after himself some. He is a real nice guy and very clean. I don't see the problem, it's just bringing it up.
I had some blood tests done for PCOS. They came back showing what my doctor called "Per-PCOS". So I have an appointment the 1st to talk to my OBGYN about this more. I just want to make sure I understand all this, and that the course of action I've picked is the right one.
Today was the big Ohio State Michigan game. I am Ohio State all the way, and Nick is Michigan. Of course Ohio won! I wish I had pictures to show of our Thanksgiving. I took some but our camera decided not to save them to our memory card. We will be going to see the Holiday lights at the beach soon. Other than that nothing much is happening. I'm still looking for a job and Nick still feels the same about ship life.

November 15, 2010
Sorry it's been so long. We have been pretty busy and time just seemed to fly by. My in-laws came to visit for a few days during the summer. We went to see the Old Cape Henry Light House, and did a lot of shopping. Then the following week my mom, dad, grandma, and sister came down for a few days. We took them to see the Light House as well. My sister stayed with us for a week because she had a dance competition here. She did a good job and I'm so proud of her. My husband finished C-school in October so we went back to Ohio for a while. While we were in Ohio I went to see my dentist and I have to get my bottom two wisdom teeth taken out. We came back 2 days before he had to report to his ship. He seems to be liking it on the ship, he says the only problem is the beds. He says he might as well be sleeping in a cardboard box. It's too little for him.
Shortly after getting back from Ohio I went to see my doctor. I had been having some pretty intense pelvic pains, they were so bad I was crying and couldn't walk. The doctor did his thing and told me it sounds and feels like a cyst on my ovary's. So he sent me to get two pelvic ultrasounds, then sent me to see an OB/GYN. There the doctor examined me again, then told me to get dressed and wait in his office because "We need to talk." Needless to say I was thinking "Oh Crap!" It's never good when a man says those four words, it's even worse when it comes from a doctor. He told me that both of my ovary's are enlarged with multiple cysts, and that after seeing the ultrasounds and blood work, he believes I have Polycystic Ovary Disease or PCOS. So now I am trying to lose at least 10 pounds, I am being put on a new birth control pill, and I have to start eating better. My doctor said there is really nothing I can do. I'll always have PCOS so all I can do is manage the side effects.
Let's see what else. Oh! I transferred from Liberty University Online to Ashford University Online. My current GPA there is 3.85. We tried to adopt a dog but within 5 minutes our cat, Allie had him bleeding in 3 different places. She didn't even have to see him before she started hissing.
Right now I am waiting to hear about a teacher's assistant job at a school called La Petite Academy. Other than that not much else is going on. I'll upload some picture from the summer.

Hey, hope everyone had a good and safe Memorial Day weekend. I know I did! We spent time by the pool, and time together. We went to a cook-out Monday with a few people he worked with. My husband starts the check-in process for C-school today. Have some school work to do, luckily one of them aren't due for another few weeks. The only problem is now to force myself to read this long boring article and write a review over it. My grandma said a few things that, well upset me. All I want to do now is lay in bed and cry. She said that she thinks all these issues my parents have now, and my sister being mouthy and getting in trouble is all because I left. She also said they only reason her and my sister aren't getting the help or things they want or need is because I'm not there. It really hurt. My husband said I shouldn't feel bad, that it isn't my job to take care of them or babysit my parents.

Thursday May 27,2010
Well it is 9:19 am and about an hour ago my husband called me. He passed his exam and will become an IT3 in June or July. All I have to say about that is thank heavens I don't have to worry about that anymore. Yesterday, we received mail for someone who lives in the building next to us and because no one answered when I went to drop it off, I took it to the front office. While in the front office I told them that it has been 2 weeks since someone came to fix out toilet but no one has came back to re-cock it, and that the light in the kitchen has stopped working the night before. They said they would send someone out today, so we will see. Usually someone comes out by 11:30 am. I really hope someone does, I have tried being nice to get someone to come finish the toilet, I have tried everything but being a hateful bitch. I don't like when I have to be a hateful bitch. But before I do that I will let my husband take a try at getting someone to come out.
I have all my school work for the week finished. My bathing suite should be here today, but the book I forgot to order for one of my classes wont be here until at least June 2. I got a sunburn yesterday, its not the worst I've ever had but it still hurts. Last night my husband put his arm under my arm and neck and of course our arms got stuck together so when I went to pull away it was worse than pulling a band aid off. Then we found a flea on our cat Allie. So now we have planned to give Allie a flea bath, wash all the sheets on our bed and our guest bed, then find something we can use to get rid of fleas and their eggs without sending chemicals to the upstairs apartments. Well I'll be back later.
