Eighteen weeks is a long time. I find I am a pathetic blogger. Good thing no one reads this thing.
In 18 weeks my life has moved from uncertainty to a level of certainty I've never felt before. It would seem that I've settled into a life I didn't actually know existed. And it's good.
I can't tell why the change has occurred (although I'm certain that a change in prescription hormones has played more than an important role), but whatever the catalyst, I'm pleasantly surprised and happy.
Top Ways You Know You Have an Awesome Boyfriend:
1) He makes the bed...like everyday
2) When an elderly man is having a heart attack in Safeway he steps up like a trooper and handles the 911 call with confidence and grace.
3) He not only picks up the new furniture you bought, he builds it for you before you get home from work.
4) He puts up with all your emotional craziness with faith that the "normal" version of you will return one day.
5) He has a family that is not only kind, but brilliant! His grandpa is a member of MENSA
6) He listens to your concerns about the future. Doesn't claim to have answers to it all but promises to make it the best future he can.
7) He makes posters, cuts out laminating and offers to help with report cards.
8) He has a job. Like a real grown-up one.
9) He just shows up with a pumpkin spice latte every now and again
10) You say "ugh! I NEED to go back on Weight Watchers!" and he says "I'll do it with you, if it will help"
11) He goes fantasy show home shopping with you on weekends...and likes it.
Now that's love.
I didn't know that before.
