well, as many know we have been talking about house-hunting for quite some time. And, quite frankly, you've probably started to think "yah..whatever"... Well... it's now official. We looked at four houses on Sunday and really liked the one. Now, had I been typing this yesterday I would have just said "liked"...but today it's "really liked"... so who knows what tomorrow may bring.
On one hand, my logical brain says...you've only looked at four... on the other, my living heart says go for the one you liked... unfortunately (?) I have more logic in me...lol. There's a lot of other things going into it... many of my friends and family have lent encouragement, question, faces of "wow...good for you guys" and faces of "oooo...gee....are ya sure ya want to do that without a ring on your hand...or 'way over' there?". Don't get me wrong...I cherish each and every one of you--even those that don't speak anything aloud, but the look on the face says it all.
So, what is the purpose of this blog tonight... I dont know really. I'd say mainly to share where JOhn & I are in our life...in our relationship... His passion for looking for a house to SHARE with me... to start a life with me.... to eventually have more of a family than just 'us' just amazes me. Never did I truly believe I would find this guy--the guy that is there for me, through laughter and tears... through discussions of things that anyone else would have me committed for... the guy that when I say "wow....this is going fast" says... "it's ok.. no rush... this is for US..." I never had the flutters and visions of little hearts circling my head... but as I see us moving from our tiny temporary apartment to a more fixed place... a place of OUR own.. the feelings start to flutter.. and it amazes me.
So... for those wonderful caring and loving friends and family going "woooo...are you sure...."... Thank you for your love. Thank you for caring. But, know, we do not step lightly into this next chapter of our lives together--no, it may not be 'traditional' as society tells us it should be... but, it's what it is for us... our life... our love... our family. And, that, my dear friends is what's good and right... as if it were between you and your beloved, it would be--regardless of what I think.
So... keep those comments and signs of love coming... and hopefully soon we will all be rejoicing at a housewarming... at a wedding... and... of course my pending graduation (party planned for May 16 by the way)... and... that may not be the order of things... stay tuned!
