Jaime just left my place after being here for a week. While it was AWESOME seeing her, I know she’s much better off now. She’s left to go on a cross country road trip, landing wherever her heart takes her.
Hearing her excitement is making me SUPER NOSTALGIC for when I used to do that. On the same note though, it feels nice to a routine going on.
While Jaime was here, she gave me a book that she created for my birthday. The book was freaking AMAZING… so I made a video where I read it to you.
And like I said, other friends gave me ridiculously heartfelt and awesome things as well. I know I already blogged about it but you guys didn’t get to SEE it. :) In alphabetical order:
Brian sent me a beautiful bouquet of roses.
Joshua surprised me by putting this swoonworthy poem in my screen door:
And Otto gave me this AWESOME framed letter that made me positively melt:
I know you can’t read the picture, so I typed everything out that it says:
