Another Day
Last night was spent trying to help Ryan get all of her stuff packed for her regional track meet (they leave @ 9am today and won't be back til midnight on Saturday) and trying to get all my own stuff set so I can pack for our trip tomorrow. Then a pretty big storm blew in and power was in and out through the evening. We got so much rain that the water was about halfway through the garage. My mom had brought a big gift bag full of books and they were sitting in the garage so there were some on the bottom that got ruined.
Because of the storm our satellite was out so I was shocked when I got online this morning and saw that Carly Smithson had been eliminated from Americ@n Idol. Wow... I thought she was amazing.
Craig was so sweet last night when he came home. He was in such a good mood! He came in talking about what he was doing "about that time 10 years ago" and it was so cute to see him talk about how nervous he was and how convinced he was that he'd screwed up. They'd had a storm blow in and it was snowing in the mountains so at the last minute he had to try and find snow chains so that he could get to Tahoe. He knew what flight I was on but when I look back at all that happened I really can't believe we didn't prepare better. I was smack dab in the middle of my divorce and was BROKE so I sent the money that I had for the trip to Craig ahead of time and it never dawned on me what would happen if for some reason he backed out. It literally never crossed my mind. The hotel was in my name because it was all part of the package I bought but when I look back at all of this I am surpised that something didn't go wrong. I'd never do something like that... or at least I didn't THINK I would. But here I am, 10 years later pretty freakin' happy about the whole thing!
Happy Anniversary, Craig!!

Isn't it funny? I did the same thing when I first met my husband. I invited him home with me! Had never done that before (of course I was pretty young, but still). Almost 26 years later....

Sometimes you leap and the net appears, right?
This guy that I barely knew, and didn't like very much came to a party at my apartment and never left. That was 17 years ago.
