My Oh My

This weekend was eventful to say the least. I just wanted to say that and leave it there, as Jenna's business is nobody else's, but my oh my if it wasn't stressful and dramatic.

The visit with my mother was AMAZING. I really do miss her, and as I come to understand her more, I really do just love her so much. I finally got to make-up with my Texas Melissa, and it was so amazing I nearly cried. I have missed her so much, and it was just like nothing changed. Of everything that happened this weekend, I can say with confidence I am most grateful for her and I making up. I got to spend a night dancing with Philip (and all of the gays in Houston for that matter), and it was great to see my boo/first husband. I ran into a few old friends that I didn't expect to see, and that was also wonderful.

After seeing Jenna's 120,000.00 BRAND NEW and beautiful house with 5 bedrooms/3 FULL bathrooms....I am thoroughly convinced that if we are going to buy real estate, PDX may not be the place. However, it is a whole other world down there, and it is so funny how I constantly remember the values but forget the feel...if we do move to Texas we're going to have to move to Austin. Still the Country of Texas, but more a feel of home.

I did not get to study at all, but fortunately my Bio teacher is going to let me take a make-up exam for a penalty of 10%, which is far better than the F I was sure to get without a make-up. I arrived home thoroughly exhausted, after about 4 hours of sleep each night, to the most tender and caring husband on the planet. I will have to post pictures of what he did at the airport, but later tonight.....seriously-I have always wanted someone to do what he did for me, and I nearly cried and peed with pure joy. (nice combo, yes?)

I miss my home friends. I do. And while I love Texas, what would I do without Melissa, Julia, Liz, and Rachael?....I have loved having them around the corner. I don't know what the future holds, but as long as it holds all my people-I'm not really concerned.

Loves.

P.S. Don't forget-you HAVE to see what Andrew did for me at the airport. ;)
