Beginning of the End

Well, it's been quite a while since I've written, and so much has happened! This was probably the busiest summer I've ever had. I quit the company I worked for since I graduated college, moved to another state, started working as a contractor, got married, watched the little one graduate, saw my friend get married, all while getting used to my new job and flying across the country five times. Oh, and I went to my very first major league baseball game. Now I am home one more time before another big change in my life. My husband (*giggle* that will never get old!) and I are packing up, getting ready to take the little one to college then he and I will be driving across the country to start the next stage of our lives together! That's right, after two long, hard years, we will finally be living together again! This time on the other side of the country. For the first time in our relationship we will be closer to my family than his. He's never even lived outside the state he was born in, so this might be more of an adventure for him.

I'm sure he'd be the first to say I worry too much, but he's never been very far from his family, I worry that it'll be more of a shock than he expects, moving to the other side of the country from everything he knows. I've done it before, so I know what it's like. Although when I did it, I didn't know anybody within 2,000 miles of where I moved to, and he'll at least have me, but still. Of course I'm also worried about him finding a job, and we'll be looking for a house probably soonish. And before all that, I'm worrying about getting packed in time and the four day drive across the country with the pup in the car...

Other than being a total worry-wort, I'm very excited that I'm no longer alone. This "adventure" has been quite a lot longer than I expected in the beginning. And harder too. It's hard to believe that it's finally over! We have lots of plans for the future, and now we can actually work on making them happen. My husband *giggle* wants to get into backyard farming. I think it sounds interesting, but pretty much I'm happy as long as he's by my side.

Well, I'll try to at least take pictures of the trip for those of you still reading, no promises on how much blogging I'll be doing as we cross the country though! Maybe when we start our little farm I'll blog about that :)
