If we have to live thousands of miles away from our family and friends - at least we can do so in a age that makes communication just a little easier.
Last night we were able to Skype with Mike's parents - which was a total blast and I was able to pseudo-skype with Renee. We (Renee and I) encountered a few technical difficulties while trying to skype earlier in the night, but none the less - it was so nice to talk with her and get to hear her voice, and hopefully see her beautiful face sooner rather than later!
I am now on a mission to get all of our friends and family on Skype...up first - SHARON!
Today is a big day - and I couldn't be happier that it is finally here. My best friend and college room-mate gets into town this evening around 11 p.m. and gets to spend the whole weekend (well until Sunday morning) with me!!!!! What a wonderful treat and I just want to thank her amazing and wonderful husband one more time for getting her such a totally thoughtful and awesome gift for Christmas - something that is truly a gift for not just her but for me too! No idea what we will do this weekend - but I am not worried about us finding things to fill the time - we are pretty good at being together!
This is exactly what I need right now - I love my husband dearly and wake up every morning excited to spend the rest of my life with him - but I miss my best friends more than anything right now and it makes it so hard to focus on why we are out here doing what we are doing when we are so far away from family and friends.
I know that it will be hard to say goodbye to her on Sunday - it always is - and as Ney says, its always after we say goodbye that we are truly reminded of how much we miss that person - but the time that I get to spend will make the goodbye worth it!
I hope that everyone is as blessed as I am to have amazing, wonderful and caring friends in their life!
Have a wonderful day - I know I will!
