    Happy Anniversary to us

    Two years ago I became a Mrs. It may not have been the typical storybook happily-ever-after but it doesn’t mean our story doesn’t count. It doesn’t mean I haven’t enjoyed every minute of it. Looking back I’ve enjoyed going through these ups and downs together (well enjoyed isn’t the right term because I would have rathered of not had to go through it all). Most of the things have been out of our control but still we faced them, got through them and are still here to talk about it. We may not have had it easy but that’s just fine by me. We will get where we want to…

    The day is upon us…

    So it’s about 8:30 and John is in the shower and I’m just sitting here with this knot in my stomach. My eyes welling up. It’ll be fine but suck at the same time. I’m a crier. I’m not good with goodbyes no matter who it is or how long it’ll be until I see them again. I hate this part of the journey. I don’t feel ready. But is one ever ready?! It’s about the apprehension of it all. He’s going and I’m going to miss him. I don’t sleep alone very well. But this also forces me to face the fact that I am going to be moving…

    If I don’t get out of bed, can I avoid tomorrows?

    So the hub-bub of the last few weeks has died down and now I wish it hadn’t. It forces me to realize that there are only a few short days (1.5 actually) left to spend with my husband before he’s gone. 1.5 months until I see him again. I can no longer pretend the move isn’t happening or that it is far off in the distance. I haven’t been able to focus on the moving and leaving me behind in a place I don’t really want to be since we’ve been so busy. But now, it’s all encompassing. It’s all I can think about. It’s all I dread. If I…

    May 29, 2008

    I had all intentions of blogging on that day or for that day but instead I worked half a day, came home & took John to the SUB, got dressed, drove John’s family to the grad, went to dinner, unpacked the van, drove Jerry to the Northside to go canoeing, and then packed into all hours of the night. So better late than never it is. This was a day many years in the making and I couldn’t believe it was time to see John walk across that stage. Once we saw his name on the grad list, Saturday the 24th, it became all the more real. It gaveus something…

    What does this look like to you?!

    To me it looks like a 3.3 GPA and confirmation that J is officially out of UNB!!! That’s it. The final mark has appeared and confirmed what we already knew, J is officially an EIT now. So that’s it folks, it’s time to congratulate J on a job well done. The hard work has paid off and he know has an awesome job lined up…just too bad it’s not around here, eh?! It’s been quite the weekend…
