At least there has been some progress to moving forward to this next chapter! I found out a few days ago that the British Embassy has gotten my paperwork and they say they will have it processed within the next 5-15 working days. (But my lawyer says they typically move very quick so I should hear something pretty quick...With all hope!) I'm trying not to get my hopes up every day when I check the mail! (Especially since it's waaayyy to early to get anything anyways!) But it's hard because I'm so anxious!

Tomorrow morning I have the movers coming to re-pack my items and take to ship off (they needed to be re-packed anyways as I had packed them using clothes and towels as padding, so it would be good to have them packed a little more professionally). Funny enough, the process was insane, it's like I have to push myself on these companies to get them to work with me! LOL! I originally called 4 different companies to get quotes. 3 out of 4 actually responded back, never heard from the 4th one! 2 out of the three companies came back with a quote by last Friday, I FINALLY heard from the 3rd company yesterday (and they were $1,000 more than everyone else! LOL!). But I boiled it down to the cheapest company that will pack, ship, clear customs for me, then deliver it to my door within 60-90 days for around $1,485.00 which is a lot better than I had anticipated and it's nice that they are willing to start the process so fast (tomorrow!) which means that I will have less waiting time for my stuff when I get there! :)

Other than that, I'm pretty boring! I spend most of my days talking to the fiancee, working out, playing around on my laptop and doing things with my sisters. It'll be fun to start reporting on my experiences in England when I starting living there! I will try to make it more interesting and post pictures and stuff for you guys to see! :D So now if a good time to tell me what kind of stuff you want to see and know about! Feel free to message ideas to me!

Till we meet again...Live, Laugh, Love!!

"The Lead of Love"...

"Looking back at the road so far The journey's left it's share of scars. Mostly from leaving the narrow and straight. Looking back it is clear to me, that a man is more than the sum of his deeds, And how you make good of this mess I've made is a profound mystery. Looking back you know you had to bring me through all that I was so afraid of though I questioned the sky now I see why...Had to walk the rocks to see the mountain view looking back I see the lead of love Looking back I can finally see how failures bring humility(I'd rather have wisdom and pain) Brings me to my knees (Than be a comfortable old fool)Helps me see my need for thee..." - "The Lead of Love" from Caedmon's Call. I have really been working on putting the pieces of my life back together and I think that one of the things that have been missing in my life is my spiritual growth. It's something I've been thinking and missing for some time now and think that maybe ...

Facing Fears Head On

We all get scared from time to time. It's not unusual, it's not a feeling only subjected to specific individuals, it can influence anyone. The trick is to admit your scared, figure out why, and face it straight on. I think this is something that I've been facing daily since my divorce (and definitely before but it's been more prominently noticeable since my divorce), back then it was "how will I do this on my own?", "will anyone ever love me or am I even capable of loving someone back?" and maybe the funniest of the bunch: "Am I going to become one of those 'spinsters' with 20 cats?!!?" (I don't even really like cats that much! LOL! I much prefer a dog!) But I think this experience here has been the scariest of all experiences. These are new fears like fitting in, adjusting to the culture, acceptance, being able to work and make a good living, driving, etc. It plays on my mind everyday. I know I can do this, I know that 6 mo...

These Small Hours...

"Our lives are made in these small hours, these little wonders,these twists & turns of fate. Time falls away, but these small hours,These small hours still remain..." I love this song from Rob Thomas, I think it fully embraces one of my favorite things in life: know knowing and appreciating the little things in life. I really feel that a lot of times, it's the small things that can make the biggest impact in one's life, and sadly enough, it's often the things we take for granted the most. When I was in Boise and things felt rough or those "twists and turns of fate" would throw blows at me, I used to drive up to table rock (or area's by that also over-looked the city) when the sun was setting and stars were coming out to think and put things back into perspective. I remember being just in awe of the sight as the sun slowly dipped into the earth and the night city would come alive with the stars making their twinkly appearance above. As I sat the...
