Hello, its been a lonnnng time! But, I'm going to try and weasel my way back into writing every few days or so. With that said, so much to update, I don't really know where to start. I'll ramble and it will all come to me eventually. Currently, I have myself so deep into the Twilight series, I'm forgetting what day of the week it is. ;0) Its so good, and probably is feeding a void with Drew gone, reading the romantic parts of it anyway. I dream of being able to ride in the car and talk with Drew like Bella and Edward. OK, I'm weird...moving on. I had our builder come to the house today to see about finishing our bonus room, and found myself so intrigued with his story. He's 34 and in a wheelchair....and for someone to be "handicapped" as we all place conditions on people, he blew me away with his spirit for life. He was such a happy individual and I am so blessed I was in his presence. It made me look at life in a different way and I agreed with him as he talked about the unknowing of what lies tomorrow as he stared at Drew's army pictures on the wall. At that moment, I felt a small piece of what his underlying meaning may have been, and I became a little teary-eyed and he quickly changed the subject. On a different note, he was a very nice guy and we will more than likely use his services to complete our house, as he knows it better than anyone.
Drew is doing really well, back and forth from the base to other locations, and he always manages to call me and reassure he is well. I wait, and jump for every phone call as each day passes in hoping to hear his sweet, inviting voice. Its almost over, and now were talking more and more about our future plans. It makes me happy in a very deep place where I haven't felt happiness in quite sometime. I will gladly make the 10 hour drive to bring him home in the coming months. Its something I hadn't given much thought to until lately as the time grows near. I can't even imagine the emotions we will share once we are reunited...it gives me chills just thinking. Being in his presence is such a happy place for me, as you all can imagine. I can finally fulfill this dream that's been lurking for a while, seeing him for the first time, and hugging him, and of course receiving a juicy kiss! ;0) OK, enough about that.
Everything with the house is exceptionally well and I'm still loving it. We are blessed with amazing neighbors who would do anything for us. It's truly a great neighborhood and I feel so welcome here. I can't wait for Drew to have the same feelings. That's all I can chalk up tonight...'till next time!
