Me and my Boo!

It's been a little rough here in my world.  The Boo and I hit a rough patch and it was not pretty.  A huge part of it was probably me.  I tend to internalize things a lot, overthink things and stress out about things as well.  And I'm not very good at communicating how I am feeling, which doesn't make things easier.  So I bottle all these feelings deep inside of me, until they explode to uncontrollable levels and I lash out.  It's not pretty, and I feel awful about doing so.  I have promised to be better about this.  Thankfully, the Boo is understanding and can forgive these outbursts.  He has his faults as well and we just have to be better at working on them.

We went to a wedding this weekend and had made up.  We had a great time and it was like the past few days hadn't even happened.  That's what I love about him, his ability to let go of things.  I really need to learn how he does it.  Below are some fun pictures of us.

He's so freaking tall!  And I'm so freaking short.

Same picture but with the barn behind us instead.

He can never take a nice picture!

Even worse picture!

Finally a nice picture of us!

His impression of putting his head on my shoulder.

Wedding Fun

Even though Jimney Cricket had a collapsed lung, he still wanted to participate in his good friend's wedding over the weekend.  The wedding was a lot of fun.  The groom was handsome and the bride was beautiful, and we all had a great time.  Here are some of my favorite pics from the wedding:

As grooms men's gifts, the boys got samurai swords!  Jimney was very excited.

The stain-glassed windows in the church.

The happy couple at the altar.

The reception hall had stunnig views of the city.

The handsome boys.

Us again.

Beautiful sunset.

Night views of the city that came out blurry, but thought looked really neat.

My Poor Jimney Cricket

Sorry I have been MIA.  This past week was absolutely nutso.  BFE and Jimney Cricket were both in the hospital!  BFE, I knew would be in the hospital, but was not expecting Jimney to be in there and during the same week as her.  He was admitted on Monday for a collapsed lung!  Crazy!  And I thought it was just gas, opps, my bad.  She was in the hospital to remove a tumor from her brain!  Again, crazy.  Thankfully, both are doing so much better and both are at home and resting (well BFE is resting, Jimney is up and at 'em).  Seriously though, these two are my better halves (or would that be thirds?), and I don't know what I would do without either of them.  It was such a long, stressful week, but I am so glad that both are well again.

Here are some pics of Jimney:

After his surgery in the ER.  He had to have a chest tube inserted to suck out the air in his lung cavity and to inflate his lung.  He said the chest tube going in was extremely painful, and he didn't once scream or cry out.  What a trooper!

All smiles!  I think he's heavily medicated at this point.

I had to saran wrap him so he could take a shower.  He wasn't allowed to get the wound wet right away.

Here's the side view.

He's Just Great

After I got some upsetting news from my Best Friend (she'll be known from here on out as BFE, Best Friend Ever), I texted my boyfriend letting him know how much I love him and how glad I am that he's in my life.  He replies back with this:

He's just awesome and he too is the best thing that has ever happened to me.  I'm so lucky!

Smiles

My boyfriend (gotta think of a good nickname for him), is currently away at a company trade show.  I dropped him off at the airport early Monday morning and when we said goodbye, both of us forgot to say, "I love you."  I didn't even realize it until I got to work and checked my phone.  He sent me this text.

I love him so much!
