Bill has been home for a week now and he's just as wonderful in person as over the phone. The first weekend he was home we went back to Timbuktu and sat in the beer garden and talked for hours. I don't know why I was so nervous about seeing him for the first time. It really feels like we've know each other for years when we are together.
I had a busy week with training in Lincoln. It was nice to get to hang out with Sara (even if it was only for a little bit!). I've missed my friends from CO. If I could move them to FHCH it would be perfect!!!
Friday I had the day off for a couple doctor's appointments. I thought I found a new lump and by the end of the day I found out I have several more I couldn't feel myself. I meet with the surgeon on 9/25 so I can discuss this whole mess with him. I really don't want to mess with all of this again! :( After my depressing doctor's appointment I got to have lunch with my friends Stacey, Jenn and Melissa. It was so wonderful spending time with them!! I haven't seen them in months so we had lots to catch up on. I really needed to laugh after all the bad news and they kept me laughing for a couple hours. I can't wait to see them again!!!!
Friday night I met Bill back and Timbuktu for a band he really likes. We spent the first half of the evening alone then Laura, Randel, Jill and Erika decided to join us. It was nice sitting in the beer garden with all them getting to know Bill. Erika had was trying to play the protective sister and asked him tons of questions. We had a nice time and Bill said he really liked all of them. Jill sent me a text on the way home that they all liked him. I didn't want him to feel out numbered but he can talk to anyone and it went great.
Saturday we went to the Illini football game with Daren and Rachel. I was so excited for them to meet Bill and show off my babies. Sam was a little shy with Bill but warmed up pretty quick. Daren and Rach were in such a good mood we had an awesome time. They were cracking us up all day. Bill and Daren and both "Good Ole Boys" so they got along great. The three of them had quite the time making fun of me all morning. We met up with Amy and Ryan and a couple of their friends before the game. We sat around drinking, eating snacks, and taking stupid pictures.
Saturday night we were so tired after the game we relaxed at home and I cooked dinner. We then went to the Pub to hang out with Brandi for a little bit. It was a mellow night at the Pub so we didn't make it out all night.
I had an amazing weekend. I was with Bill from 8 pm on Friday until 8 am on Sunday and loved every minute of it. I was very worried about having someone in my house for more than a couple hours but everything with him is so relaxed it was just fine. He loves my dogs and was not afraid to step in and let them out or just play with them. Who knew I would be this happy with such a wonderful man!!
