Honey, I’m about 10 days shy of jumpin this ship

Life has been busy. And I’ve been procrastinating.

I keep waiting to post until I can put of pictures of our completed bathroom and basement. But that may never happen. the basement is at about 82%-95% depending of who you ask, and if husb is around. He seriously worked SO hard on it! I’m so proud of him! Plus he puts with my crazy. What an amazing human being. So far he is 1 of 2 people that can and will put with me on a 24/7 basis.

The other pair of that duo is my sweet, dear and amazing best friend who I gladly share with Sheila.

Her name is Cora.

 

She is coming here in about 15 days. HERE. To Canada. For me. I am overwhelmed at the prospect that she would willing submit herself to putting up with crazy, and for loving me. We’ve been friends for a long time and walked a long road together. I can’t wait. I seriously can’t contain myself.

Things I love about Cora.

1. She’s hilarious. No one can make me laugh like she can.

2. She gets me. My soul…

3. She knows about as much as anyone (who isn’t husb) about me and she still loves me. It’s awesome and terrifies me.

4. She is wise. So wise.

5. She is creative and whimsical and thought provoking and I don’t think she realizes it.

6. She makes people want to be better versions of themselves so they can be worthy of her affection. It’s crazy and she doesn’t mean to, but it just happens.

7. She’s wonderfully, brilliantly complex.

8. She’s an athlete and she has been one of my #1 inspirations and motivators in the body/life overhaul. She just ran a half marathon and looks better than I’ve ever seen her look in our almost decade long friendship. I’m so proud of her!

9. She makes an effort. Usually this just makes me feel like I’m the worst friend ever, but it’s not even like that with her. She just lets you be who you are with no expectations.

10. She has a heart the size of Texas, maybe bigger.

 

I love her. I can’t wait.

 

I don’t know what this title has to do with the fact that she’s coming, but it’s a lyric I had written on a napkin so I threw it in there.
