Home doesn't feel so much like Home anymore...

Hi everyone,

So I am back from Texas and it has been a harrowing journey back home. Tomorrow I'll tell you about it. Suffice to say, it's been a long trip back in more ways than one.

So the trip was more than I could have ever imagined. Manda is truly the girl of my dreams. She is so perfect it's daunting to believe she's even real. She's beautiful, she's smart, totally sexy, absolutely hilarious and she has an amazingly beautiful soul. I spent the majority of the flight today trying to figure out how a homely not so smart guy like myself could be so lucky...I still don't have an answer for it...

So anyway, I'll write more tomorrow morning. I just wanted everyone (even Tam) to know how much I love and appreciate them. You are all extraordinary people, and I am so happy to call you all family. Thank you for your many prayers and encouragement. You'll never know how much it has meant to both Manda and I.

Good Night Family.

-J:heart:

    I'm sure Manda has a different outlook on how you speak of yourself.
    I find it hard to believe your not as fantasitc! :happy:
    It sounds like you two make a great pair that balance each other out.
    Hope the time is short until your back together. Thanks for sharing with us.

    Aww J, welcome back, I'm glad you had such a great time. I can honestly say I know how it is to finally find that one and have to watch them get on a plane and leave, or be the one leaving. When hubby and I met for the first time and he flew to Tennessee to visit for a week it was SO hard, I also think in that moment when I seen his plane take off and I burst into tears and the entire airport was lookin at me like I was a loon, I realized how much I loved him and needed him. I started making arrangements for my move to Canada that day lol. I wish you and Manda the best, and know you'll be together again soon :flowerforyou:
