I don't have a choice but I'd still choose you.

 

My goodness. It has been a very long time since I have sat down to write. I missed the whole month of December, or rather, whilst in the thick of it, I forgot to write it all down.

2012 was absolutely beautiful, granted, with a few pulls at the heart along the way. Christmas was lovely, a whirlwind of family and him, that amazing, incredible boy that has become my oxygen. It rained on Christmas Day, but it was lovely still, sitting cozy by the fireplace and watching the rain fall from the sky softly, like it was taking its time.
He is finally back from up north, and I am so glad. It's funny how I thought I was doing fine without him until that moment I saw him for the first time in a week, and suddenly I realized how not-okay I was, and how much I truly need him. It's terrifying, really, but it's absolutely amazing at the same time.
I got a second job recently, doing paperwork and scanning for an auto shop in town. It has been nice to work elsewhere, as well as in the little ice cream shop. My employers have a cat that is quite possibly one of the sweetest creatures I have ever seen; charcoal coloured with big dark eyes. She sits on my lap when I work, keeps me company.
Otherwise, not much has been happening; working, and prepping for India and Nepal. I am so, so excited; I have been having very colorful dreams about our future travels. I can't wait.

Happy January!

Love,
