Hello World!
Here I am!
I had an uneventful, but long, journey. All my boardings, disembarkings, take-offs and landings went quite nicely though. No problems at all. Just sitting on the plane for 7-8 hours for the transatlantic flight was a pain. Ugh.
I am so completely happy. I cannot believe I live here now. This is it. Here I am. It is amazing. I'm with my David, my darling love of my life David, and just so happy. It's so surreal to be working on changing everything I once knew. I have to get used to new ways of money, traffic, dealing with rubbish--literally, etc. So much!! I'm so excited though.
It was hard to leave the home I knew. I watched the Rocky Mountains in the window for as long as I could while we took off. The stupid plane windows were really low on that flight... my breasts had a great view however. In the second plane from Chicago to London the windows were in a good position. And we flew over Canada so I got to say hello and goodbye to Canada. :-) I watched the sunset over Canada.
This journey was not as difficult as the last one. I'm acclimating more like I expected on the last trip. I know that it was my first time for a lot of things, such as first time on a long transatlantic flight, first time in a new country, etc. But I always felt unbalanced the last time I was here. Disoriented. And I never could really regain my composure. This time... I have barely any jet lag at all. When David and I came home I did take a 2 hour nap... and then we went out to get some stuff... came home and I took another 20 minute nap, and that was it. I was mostly fine the entire day. I fell asleep at night, with David, and awoke this morning with David.
At the Colorado Springs airport I realised "Oh bloody hell" I had packed a whole bunch of toiletries into my carry-on bag. So I went to the restroom and threw out most of it. Which I was very sad to do because everything was new and hardly used. I lamented about this on the phone with David and he tried to cheer me up by saying we'll go out and buy new stuff when I arrive, which is what we did yesterday. I was still upset though, because I said "But I don't know exactly where to find this stuff in England!" But we managed yesterday. There's just two more things I need to find to replace and that will be easy enough. I replaced most of it yesterday. And dear sweetheart David went out and bought me some lotion while I was still on my journey to him... and guess what? He found the exact right stuff I needed!
He met me at the airport with a bottle of water and some pistachios. Awwwwww. What a darling. I love him so much. I'll never forget his smile as I walked out of the international gate at Heathrow. I'll never forget being in his arms. I'll never forget the feeling of "I don't ever have to leave again. I'll never leave from Heathrow without David and I'll never have to leave David." It's so amazing, awesome and surreal. I cannot believe I live here now! With my David!!!
My plans for today are to get ready, probably take a shower, and then mum will be picking me up to take me to a tube station so I can go meet David for lunch. Then I'm going to check out some jewellry stores for my/our rings. :-) David won't be able to be with me the entire time so I'll just browse and make notes of what I really like and show him later. It's going to take me some time, I think, to find the rings I want since I am so damn picky. But he and I both will decide on the final rings.
I cannot believe I live here with my beloved!!!!
I am so happy.
