New Journey, New Life.

Whew! It's been a whirl-wind these last few days! Where to start?

So my flight to England had me up bright and early at 4:45 a.m. Saturday morning. I went to the airport with my parents, drank coffee and said my goodbyes and made it through the gate a little early because be had noticed that my flight was showing a delay. I get to the gate and talked with the desk attendant and she assures me that the flight will only be 7 minutes late and EVERYONE will make their connections! So what ends up happening? The plane ends up being 40 minutes late, my connecting flight is clear on the OTHER side of the airport and I miss my flight after running from one end to the other!

From that point, I ended up playing the run-around game back and forth between terminal 1 and 3 (in San Francisco by the way!). The lady with my flight wanted to book me on a flight that would go out the next day which meant I would have to cover my own hotel and get meal vouchers from them. I said no and her informed me my only other option was to run to their sister company and see if they would help out. A total of 5 laps around the airport and trying to get booked to a different flight, then trying to get my luggage, etc. and after going through security four times, I manage to get, run, and make it to my re-booked flight with a mere 4 minutes to spare! Phew! I felt awful for the two guys sitting next to me because at this point I am completely hot and sweaty from running around with my two heavy carry-on bags, but we made it through okay!

The flight I was booked on was a 10 hour flight to Frankfurt Germany (which goes past England), then I had to jump a 2nd flight back to Manchester England. So, after a long 24 hours of traveling, I was tire, sore, stinky and about in tears when I saw my man!

He stood there at the gate, smiling at me humorously watching me try to maneuver my bags awkwardly until I reached a point where he was able to help. It was SOOOO wonderful to see him! He had this adorable grin on his face, gave me a huge hug and kiss and walked with me out of the airport eagerly wanting to hear what happened with my travels. He took me home where we ran a quick errand then got Chinese take-out. I completely crash and sleep for 13 hours and then the next day he showed me around town, we went grocery shopping and got a few things for the apartment!

Today (Tuesday) I'm tired but have so much to do! My 2nd night of sleep wasn't as good as my first (maybe about 5 hours broken up from 9a.m.-4:00a.m. then I gave up and got up at 4 a.m. and having been just hanging around ever since!) I need to do some cleaning and some re-organizing and it's just me here as my hunny has to work so I'm home alone in the house till Saturday afternoon! So, I think most of today will be spent doing that. Tonight I think I will go back to the sleeping pills for maybe a few nights just to help me get back on schedule. I've debated the idea of taking a nap, but I don't know...We will see! :)

I can tell you for sure I am so glad to be here! One look at my Brit and I was just so excited and had that feeling of just pure bliss! I can't wait to take pictures and post them for you all to see!! Hopefully I will make friends pretty quick too! Stay tuned! I promise I will try to get something up for you soon!

Live, Laugh, Love!

Do you think I'm a fool?

Its funny that certain people always thought I would be just a pee on. Well, it's nice for once to see you sweating the bullets! You see, I hate being peed on, but I also know what goes around comes around and with a little bit of hard work and some good karma, all the sudden I don't seem so weak! I love how you think you can play the emotional cards on me such as "Leaving the love of family and close friends!"...What you don't realize is that I don't care...It's not that I don't care about the love of family and close friends mind you, because I do, it's that all my family and friends are completely supportive and excited for me about this, so trying to use them against me is pointless because I already have "their blessings". I've got the love and support from the people I CARE about! It's just that you think I'm impressionable and naive, but what it has come down to is that I say anything just to shut you up! You think your...

Annual Update!

So I am the queen at updating this blog once a year! I don't mean to neglect, but it's just been so busy for me! Life certainly keeps me on my toes these days! Big events that are worth noting for the past year: -Bought a house! It's a lovely three bedroom detached house that I can call my own, hide in to get away from the world. Decorate any way I want and fill with love! I couldn't be happier here and have really settled in well! -Got a dog! He's a year old now and named Mack. Mack is a gorgeous black lab puppy with the most loving personality and the energy of 20 kids hyped up on sugar! He is the sweetest and most exhausting little guy, but he is my baby! Here is my warning for when you visit: Beware of dog, he does not hold licker well! Haha! I love that he makes me a more active person. I walk him daily and play with him when I would probably otherwise just sit on my backside and watch TV. So he's awesome all around. -I am officially a UK CITIZEN!!! Wh...

Mi Swing Es Tropical...Part 2

Okay!! Back in Boise and doing well...figured I shouldn't leave you all hanging! (all two of my fans..ha!) So where was I?...I had just found out that the Brit wasn't with these other girls...that they were just friends. So yeah, we talked for a LONG time! Till like 3:30 in the morning...He said some of the sweetest things ever...I had never had a guy be soo sweet! Thing like "How I took his heart and disappeared" and he's been looking for both since that night...Lol! It was a really good time...The man is an AMAZING kisser! I don't know if it's the accent but WOW! I melted! I suppose it could have been the romantic atmosphere...Ocean, beach, night sky and twinkle lights...But I was smitten! So, yeah...The next day I went on an adventure (all day) with my friends and all I could think of is how I would rather be at the hotel talking and hanging out with him...THEN when we got back to the hotel, I run to my room, pack really quick and then work feverishl...
