Livin' it up in PA (or my BLOG with a mention of Chris)

Hello Blog people!


I am here in PA - FINALLY!  The road was long, but I am here and somewhat in a sound mind.  Things are hard but, things are right too.


The kids are great... same as I remember.... crazy as I remember.


The hotel I am staying in is CRAP - but - oh well.... right (keep telling me that).


The wedding plans are coming along nicely... and he still wants to marry me... even if I do cry to him a lot... he says that is in the "Good Husband Handbook".  I say good -- I've held in the tears for 25 years -- FINALLY someone I've roped into sticking around while I let my emotions actually show!!!


And lastly.... Chris (the aformentioned above - lest you get confused), my beloved (my mom will get that joke) is amazing... he's the one above who listens to me cry -- stop reading now if you dont want to puke from the sappiness of the next few sentances....


Chris is amazing.  He called me EVERY day while I was on the road (did I mention it was LONG -- how do people live in Nebraska????) most of the time he called 2 or 3 times to see that I was okay and to talk.  Sunday, when I took my mom and sister to the airport -- he called at the very minute I was going to pull off the road and call him.... and he said several time -- just cry jamie... you let it all out.  Which is something I am not used to hearing... but am growing to love.  I never imagined I could love someone the way I love him.... I am a lucky girl....


So there you go.... my life in a nutshell... all-be-it a sappy one ;)  Life is alright... I love my nanny family, I LOVE my amazing family back home -- who I miss more than I'd ever admit - and I love Chris (this blogs for you).

A Romantic Story in 3 Sentences....

We were overlooking the River Thames late Friday Night.


He got down on one knee and said, "Will You Marry Me?"


I said, "Yes, of course."
