You have to record the happy moments just as much as getting advice on the sad ones
Quite possibly a boring entry, but I need something to wake me up. It’s been a long week!
Work is just getting better and better. I really like Betsy, and we seem to get along just great. She actually said I was a good writer. If you know my past, especially my past with Tina, I really had issues and self confidence issues with it. It feels good to be complimented at work. Sounds small, but the museum and all that happened there really did scar me. So if feels good now to be going uphill again. Plus we just got word that we are indeed doing my favorites event this year. It’s going to be completely different this go around also, which makes it even more exciting. Of course it’s going to happen in Feb, and we’re just now getting on it, so it will be busy, but a good busy!
Ryan and I are doing amazing. I honestly don’t know how I got so lucky. He got home last night, and it was so nice to be back in his arms and to talk to him. He did take his test on Tuesday, called me right after. To pass you need a 5.25, he got a 5.20, and I couldn’t believe it when I heard it. He is going to reapply again in November. Which is nice. Gives us more time to really get to know each other, than I can move to London or Morocco with him. We did have a talk last night, I guess now we’re official? He does refer to me as his girlfriend. Does it speak true to a commitment issue, if I have a hard time saying that back? My boyfriend, hmm… has a good ring to it. I do like it; just have a hard time saying it out loud. But I am very happy. He calls me beautiful, says I’m intelligent, all those things, all those little things I never experienced in the past. Little things that I love, and make me feel as though I’m floating on the clouds. We even talked about meeting the parents. I’m meeting his sister and best friend next week, and he’s meeting my two girls tonight and tomorrow. I have no qualms though about it. We do fit perfectly together. Two peas in a pod. Things couldn’t really be going any better (hopefully now I don’t jinx it!) Plus, if I can be so shallow, I completely love the way he dresses. Very few ripped jeans and tee-shirts. Haha
The kidney infection thank god has almost gone away. Only a couple more days of the antibiotics and then I’m cured! Took a while this time though for them to kick in, last time it was almost immediately, and this time it took a couple of days. I’m just glad it’s almost gone. I hate it!
So life in some ways is rather mundane and boring, but on the other hand it’s so exciting to meet someone like him. Someone I feel this connected to. I love my little existence in this world right now. I’m very thankful and know just how blessed I am. I can’t wait for the next couple of months, and years with him and with my success here.
