FIRST off.....We leave for America in 10 days. Up until tonight, as I have blogged, I haven't been overly excited. Don't get me wrong, I'm so thrilled to see my friends and family that I just can't stand it. Just a few fears I had. However, tonight we had dinner with my very dear friend, Mary and her hubby Graham. Mary is an American married to an Aussie. She is from Indiana. We get along very well and I reallllly enjoy her company. Her hubby is just as awesome. I wish we actually got to get together more than we do, but life is crazy. However, I think we will just have to make it happen more often. ANYWHO, tonight we had dinner at Tony Romas (yum) and she said some things that really made me feel better about the trip and so now I'm becoming excited!!!!! We are getting to see my folks and their new home in Florida. All my friends and BEST FRIENDS in Lexington... more friends, more weddings, then a week out west in Vegas and California. I've never had a vacation this long, and this is actually our first vacation AWAY together! In the past our vacations have been going to visit the other person. We get to travel together, and did I mention 1st class lounge access???? The lounge is Sydney includes a massage parlor!! (note to self... book that tomorrow!)
Secondly, there are some possible changes at work coming up. I won't go into it all here, but that's mostly because so much of it are details that *I* don't even know yet. OH!!! AND.....My visa came through a week ago!!! So I'm now a resident of Australia. How. Freakin. Cool. Nearly 2 years ago I sat in tears talking to my Aussie about how in the HELL we would be able to make this distance thing work. I attempted some online visa research, which only seemed like I was reading a foreign language and made me even more overwhelmed and stressed. To look back at all of that and see where I am now (oh, and actually doing Immigration for newer coworkers for my office.. lol) it's just such a good feeling.
Thirdly... well, I can't really go into, but for my own purposes (since I look back on this from time to time) I wanted to mention that some things are in progress.. basically, I HAVE A SECRET!!! (and, no, I'm not pregnant!!) I'm so excited about what the future holds. Once I can post further, I will!
Gotta love suspense, right??? hehehe
So I sit here tonight, fixing to head to bed to begin a very long and busy week. Wayne is home all this week, so he won't be away with work until after we return from our trip. It's one of those evenings where I just feel so loved, I just can't imagine my life any different. And what is amazing is to think that the all the changes and plans we have for the future are only going to enhance this awesome life. I love ya babe!
And America.. brace yourselves!! lol
Until next time...
