It has been one long hard week...
Yesterday was a rough day for me being my Mom's birthday. I don't know why but that day is typically harder than the day that she actually passed away. Anyway, Wednesday night I was having a crying fit and I actually haven't cried about it in a long time. I felt bad for Craig, he had to listen to me.
Well, yesterday I worked at SOMI and my boss gave me an hour lunch break so I went to his place, Gary watched Layla, and he took me out for lunch. Lunch was so great, I was already feeling like I was having an alright day- but he made it even better. We talked, we laughed, and he asked me random questions trying to know more about me... Cute right? ;)
Well, I got back to work around 1 and my boss needed me to drop off our payroll at the UC, and she wanted me to talk to financial aid & employment services because of something to do with my work study. Well, I headed over there, thinking that I should call Craig and make him go (because he needs to and keeps putting it off!) Well, I don't call him bc I figure he'll be like, I'll go tmr, so I head over there and come back maybe an hour later. As I park in my spot, I look to the next parking lot and I see who I think is Gary, standing next to Craig's car. I'm like, thats funny they wouldn't be here. So I get out and walk towards the building. Then I hear GARY say something so I stop and turn around... It was them. I was surprised and confused so I headed over there. Well, Craig had gotten me flowers and a card and was going to deliver them to me at work... But I ruined it. It made me laugh and I thought it was cute anyway. SO- how sweet is he!
Well, as if that wasn't enough to make my day go well, later that night he shows up at my apartment with his guitar (I told him I missed him playing fo me). So I was pretty happy. I hadn't been having that rough of a day so I was all smiles. Well, he said he had a song he wanted to play for me... It was "When I Look to the Sky" by Train. For some reason, ever since my mom's death I have associated that song with her. I cried when I heard it the first time so it just stuck. I made that picture frame collage of her and the chorus lyrics are in the center... I couldn't believe he remembered, because he only saw the picture once (I haven't hung it yet). I started crying, not because of missing my mom but because that was the sweetest thing in the entire world... How much does that say about him?! He'd already gone out of his way to make sure I had a happy day, then pays enough attention to remember a little detail like that, and to know how important it was to me...I was so shocked... It made me feel so loved. Michelle had messaged me during the day because she knew what day it was, and Jill had remembered too. But wow, to know I have friends that are there for me on days like that, without having to go to them. *Priceless*
I am so lucky to have you guys in my life, so I just wanted to say thank you. It means so much to me, and I don't know what I'd do without you guys. That really shows me a lot... So, thanks... I love you guys. :) *happy tear*

And tell me, can't you see- you're everything to me.
