our wedding party

lighting the unity candle
Yesterday was our one year anniversary. I would like to say that we did something “special” for it, but we didn’t.
We didn’t do anything for our anniversary, but we are going to Glamis at the end of this week, so that surely makes up for it.
I can’t believe that I have been married to George for one year. It seems small compared to the eight years that we have been together, but considering that we got married and VERY soon after got pregnant, I think it was an eventful year. I am happy that we made it to our first year. I am happy that I am still in love with George as much as when I first met him. I happy that our relationship is so solid now, that I feel like he is my rock. I am happy that we have a family. I am happy that he is the only one that completes me.
Glamis is on my brain non-stop it seems. I can’t wait until Sunday when we load up the trailer and head out. A few people will be out there before us to reserve a spot. I can’t wait for Georgie to have his first camping experience. It may seem weird that at 2 months he is going camping but hey mama like son, what can I say.
We will leave on Sunday morning and come back Friday evening before the “crazies” get out there. I don’t feel like exposing my son to a bunch of wild women and drunk drivers. It can get pretty bad out there. So, I am begining to pack up his “stuff”, for his first vacation. I hope he can learn to be a light packer in life, because mama certainley has no clue to pack lightly.

George and I in Glamis, November 2007.
This last week I admit that I have been in a “funk”. I am sad because I have to go back to work. On December 1st, I will drive Georgie to our friends house and there he will be taken care of while I spend my day thinking about him.
I always thought I would be off for 6 weeks and want to go back to work, that I would be “bored”. That is SO not the case. I love being at home with him and I afraid he and I will both suffer when I go back to work. I already feel the bond that I have with him and I don’t want anything to happen to that. Everyday is a new experience to him and me and I don’t want to miss anything.
I also got my first cycle since having him and I forgot what it was like to have it. It’s horrible and I am extremely emotional. Everything make me want to cry, especially the Braveheart theme song that I am listening to. I am overwhelmed easily this week. George told me to take care of the insurance for the trailer and meet someone to pick up our flag pole within 2 hours of each other and I almost had a nervous break-down. I felt like I couldn’t handle it all. I know this will pass, but it is just a crappy week and I really need a vacation. I am excited for Glamis, but I know it will be the end of my Maternity leave and that is just depressing to me, especially since I have to go back to work at a job that I hate.
