I will drink champagne and relax with my darling tonight. (Mmmm.) To a new year, and to my first marathon. (I can't stop thinking about it!)

I can't believe the summer is almost over.

We found a beautiful place on a tree lined street. We have a huge backyard, with plenty of room for gardening and grilling. (Outdoor space, finally!!)

I am excited to leave this city behind and to reconnect with the people who are most important to me. Beauty, love, and light.

In seven hours, I am flying west. To get my head together, get myself straight. Sunshine, I'm coming for you. Arizona, California!

As pathetic as it sounds, I am going to miss Gene so much. Ten days away from him are going to be torture; but oh how sweet it will be to come home to him. I always want to come home to him, for the rest of my life.

I'm going west to visit Joelle, Jackson, and Kenji. Those kids make my heart sing, I love and miss them so much. Knowing that I get to go see them soon is what gets me through the day. (That, and Gene.)

Come June, we will be west. California, California, California ( Read more... )

I am scheduled to get my wisdom teeth out Monday morning at 7:50. I am nervous!

I am also happy. I am still waiting for a few things to fall in line, but it will happen. Patience, child, patience.

Love, love, love!
