Coming to an end
Elena's visit stateside that is. I'll be sad to see her go, but I know she has to go back and finish what she started. Hopefully the time will fly by and she'll be back again real soon, for good. All in all I have to say it was an amazing time, and its still not over, I have 48 more hours or so of her on American soil.
It was a little bumpy the first week she was back, mainly because of the feelings I had that needed to get out and also because she was here for a whole week and I barely saw her. But ever since my party on the 20th of December we basically saw each other non-stop.
She got sick and I helped take care of her as best I could, Christmas was great to spend with her and her family. New Years was calm, just a quiet evening at home, but thats OK. All the time off from work in between was nice, especially all the time Elena spent at my house. She basically moved in for a week and a half, leaving only to go home and go to work, and then coming back as soon as she could.
It sucked to have to go back to work on Monday because I knew that at the end of the work week she'd be leaving to go back to England, but I think we'll be OK. I think we have a great shot to make it through this and still be together if thats what we really want, and I think we both do, and thats a comforting feeling.
She's hanging out with some coworkers of hers tonight and tomorrow night we're hanging out with her cousin who lives right around the corner from me, so we'll see each other tomorrow and Friday before she leaves. Nothing more I can do. Its all good though. I had a blast.
