Jackson bought me a house for Christmas. How freaking unreal is that? I knew something was up because he was all fidgety and smiling and stuff and totally reminded me of my dad whenever he had a secret surprise for my mom. It must be a guy thing. They do something incredibly romantic and they can't handle waiting to show off the gesture.
The house is gorgeous. Perfect. Unbelievably perfect and I can't stop smiling and tearing up. My life has changed so much over the last year and it's been for the good. Moving to Sunnydale was the best decision I ever could have made and that sounds so weird to say considering we faced an apocalypse, but it's true. I really feel like Sunnydale is home for me. I've made some amazing friends and found a way to make peace with Sean. My family is finally at a place where they see me as an adult and respect and support my choices.
I'm married to the most amazing man in the world and we're expecting a baby. It's just mind boggling when I think of all the good things that have happened.
I haven't forgot those that didn't make it. We buried so many people after the apocalypse and I pray for their souls and hope that their families are handling the first holidays without them as best they can. I can't stop thinking about Paige. I hope there is an afterlife, and tend to believe there has to be considering all the things I've seen in this world. In that afterlife I hope Paige is insanely happy and loved and that maybe she realizes how much she is still loved and missed down here.
I've been going to the church on the way to work and lighting a candle for her.
There is so much that needs to be finished up. We're having a painting party today and there are a lot of people coming by to hang out, eat, have a couple of beers and paint our house. Jackson Elder arrived safely and he's gotten settled at the Inn in town. Maddy told Jack his grandfather could stay with her and Xander, but he must have known she planned to get ammunition against him, because he insisted his grandfather would prefer the Inn. Heh.
Our goal is to move in on New Year's day. I've got to convince Trick to move into the apartment at the house, but I don't think he'll hold out for too long. I've got to check our lease and see what it would take to break it early. Wow. So much to do. I still need to finish wrapping Christmas presents. I'm exhausted just thinking about it.
