I just read my last blog from July 12 of last year. I am now married and am about to move to Orlando with my husband, brother, brother in law, sister in law, and mother and father in law. It's amazing that only a year has gone by.
I went to my mom's house for dinner tonight. We all talked about where we all were a year ago. I was in Portland, Jon was here looking for work, Drena (my sister in law) had just moved here with her husband, David (my husband) was in Orlando packing to move here, and Mom was recently divorced from her husband of 18 years. It was such a spectacular question (where were you this time a year ago?) that we all had to sit in silence contemplating the significance of it. In a year's time, Drena's husband died of Cystic Fibrosis, David moved here, I moved here, Jon met the love of his life, Mom became a realter, I moved to Texas, David and I fell madly in love and were married. Did I mention that my husband's sister and my brother are now "an item?" Oh yeah. They are. And they are an amazing priceless item at that. They hooked up at David and I's bachelor/bachelorrette party in Port A the weekend of our wedding. It was very cool. Unfortunately for some (my best friend Darlene), Jon chose who he wished his heart to belong to.
Did I mention my brother and my best friend had a fling? Oh no, I didn't. Well, they did, and Jon picked the person he was in love with rather the person he wanted to fuck. Sorry Darlene. Oh! And did I mention that Darlene and I are no longer friends? Well we aren't. She acted like a total ass at my wedding and was completely against us getting married and I haven't talked to her since. No offense but she can go fuck herself.
.... ANYWAY... The year has been very strange and severely life changing for all of us. I'm lucky to have my husband- damn lucky. and I wouldn't give up the hardships of the year for all the money in the world.
