The Big Day…

He pulled out of his driveway for the last time at 1:00 p.m. his time.  He’s an hour behind my time (2pm).  He called before he left telling me he was on his way.  I could tell by the tone of his voice that he was stressed and full of anxiety even before he mentioned it.  I wonder how easily he gets stressed out? There are a lot of things I don’t know about him…

I think it takes a lot of strength (or crazy) to just decide to quit your job, pack your stuff and drive five states across the U.S.A. with the hope and intent of making a life with a girl you hardly know, now that 31 years have passed between the two of you.  But apparently the “girl” is just as crazy because she’s all in and has agreed to the whole thing as well.

And now it’s real!  And he’s on his way… So here we go!  I have so much to learn and discover about him in the next nine days that I’m away from work.  ~A
