say what?

i think i may have accidentally glossed over something in my last blog that is... kind of a big deal.

my boyfriend is picking up his life, quitting a job that he enjoys and lets him spend every day with his best friend, leaving the football team he has been working with for years, leaving his friends and family, and moving hundreds of miles away to this deserted sink hole (for the record, that's about two steps up from a God-forsaken hell hole).

don't get me wrong, i am starting to get used to tucson, and even enjoy it at times. but it definitely cannot compare to a place that offers all of the comforts of home and family - and of course disneyland! i know that my boyfriend is glad to move here to be close to me and start to resume a somewhat-normal dating life again. and i know he is excited for so many new adventures: a new job, new place to live, new friends (hopefully!)...

but i know (and need to keep remembering) that he is making a lot of sacrifices for me - for us. and i need to remember to be appreciative and thank him!

things are happening

i definitely needed a blogging break, but i didn't expect it to last quite this long.

things have been incredibly busy over the past few weeks. i have been swamped at work (largely because of my own delays - more on that later), and have had visitors or been out of town every weekend since halloween. it has been a long few weeks, and yet a fast few weeks, all at the same time.

anyways, i have been a lucky girl in the past 6 weeks. i am getting some additional responsibility at work, which is great. and, my boyfriend has found a job and an apartment in the same town as me, and he will be moving out here in two weeks! this is really exciting, and i am totally looking forward to it! we haven't lived within 30 miles of each other for a year and a half, so i'm sure it will take some getting used to. in a good way.
