Crush was crushed about Memphis, but he totally understood and supports me. He knows that I gave him a ton of my focus and time this past year (which led to a few of my firings....going out of town often was the direct culprit) and that I need to finish work here with an absolute bang! Then, all of a sudden, there was a very unexpected death in his family and he wouldn't have been able to go himself anyway. It was a sign. I just don't think Memphis is meant to be for us for now.....we have tried twice and haven't made it, so we decided that Savannah is the next city that we will visit together for a quick weekend trip. Bonus that it is driving distance from my new apartment.
Meant To Be: I will be in my new city in less than 30 days. My awesome parents are joining me on my drive cross country, as retirees they have the time and I am honored to have them for the first leg of my journey. Crush told me that he wants to speak to my Dad in person once we arrive and is hoping that they can spend some time together alone for lunch, made it clear that it would just be the two of them. Eeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkk! I know my boyfriend and I know that he is very inclusive......I have my suspicions that he is going to ask my Dad for my hand in marriage like the good ole' Southern boy he is and I AM OVER THE MOON EXCITED! Cross those fingers!
In an odd coincidence, my very first weekend down South, the same weekend I believe my hand may be given to Crush forever......
Awful Ex-Boyfriend will be married for the second time just slightly North of the US border.
Life goes on.
Having the parents there to help out on your move is a great thing! I moved from Utah to California alone. My step dad helped me get my bed on the top of my old Explorer, and that was pretty much it. I was glad to leave though.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have good support structures all around!
You are so sweet! The bonus is that the place I am renting is fully furnished and my Crush is going to carry all of my things I am bringing up the stairs! I think my folks will be off sightseeing and relaxing which is as good a reason as any to join me. I am lucky about my support structures. I know that even though there is some bad in my life, my support is something that is very very good and I am really lucky to have them.
DeleteAn odd coincidence, indeed! And so, so, so exciting. Yay!
ReplyDeleteThank you and YAY!
DeleteCongratulations on the impending move, I can tell you're getting very excited! :) Gotta love new beginnings.
ReplyDeleteNew beginnings are BEST! I am very excited.....all the way around!
DeleteSorry it didn't work out for you in Memphis. Can't for the life of me figure out what you do for a living? Will you ever tell us. So excited for your move and your Dad's talk with crush.
ReplyDeleteI will indeed tell you. I am excited to share about my my new life in a bit more detail than I can now. Thank you! Can't wait for the talk, too. I have decided that it is time for me to relax a bit and just let the good times roll!
