Merry Chistmakwanzahanakkuh!!

Today is my last day at work for a week and a half!  WOOHOO!  Today is our 3rd to last day in Virginia Beach.  We will be living in DC as of December 31st.  I can't believe I moved out here 2 years ago to be with Brian.  I couldn't have asked for a better outcome to my life.  He is all I expected and more in a partner.  Moving out here was one of the best decisions I've ever made.  I know I worried my friends and family by picking up my life and moving out here on a hunch, but I hope you all can see the happiness it’s brought me.  (Not to say there weren’t many tough times too, but I like to think it made me stronger in the end.)

OK – enough sappy talk. :)

Brian’s orders are IN.  We get home from TX on December 28th and the Qatar movers are coming to pack our things on December 30th.  Then we are off to DC to spend New Year’s with our close friends, Mark & Kledia.  I can’t wait to live in DC.  It’s a fabulous town and I’m looking forward to experiencing all I can while I’m there…pending snow storms.  I also plan on working out like a fiend to look decent in my wedding dress.  I have 4 months to ship shape up, so I’m sure it will work out.

We are having some friends over tonight to make dinner and have some libations.  It’s not a going-away party.  It’s more like a I-will-see-you-in-a-few-years party.  :)

We are beyond excited to get to Qatar, but I’m even more excited to get to TX and see our friends and family.  Our time is stretched thin, so for those of you we don’t make it to see, I apologize.  We have this problem every year trying to make everyone happy with visiting, but our trip is short and sweet and we aren’t going to stress ourselves out trying to make everyone happy.  Sorry to be a bunghole, but that’s how it is – so don’t get grumpy with us is all I’m trying to say!  :)

That’s all for now.  I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
