It’s late.. *Edit*

I should be in bed, but I’ve been napping in the afternoon and it’s screwing up my whole sleep cycle. I think the bug I had Sunday and Monday still has me worn out.

I’m really starting to think more about this move. I keep thinking about being away from my parents and that makes me sad, but then I think of how great it’s going to be in BC. I really hope one day my parents decide to move there too. It would be the best of both worlds then, you know? I’m still worried about some stuff, but Dave keeps reassuring me everything will be ok. I don’t know what I would do without him, seriously. He’s my rock. I sometimes forget how lucky I am to have Dave. I was reminded of this when I talked to my friend Ty the other day. She told me her and her husband are getting separated. I feel so bad. She told me things have been rough for a while and she’s going to go live with her parents. Her husband had a lot of issues and I think she just came to realize he wasn’t going to change.  I told her she’ll be ok and I’m here if she needs me. I told her she has to look at the positives- She’s going to be done with school this August. She’ll be able to have a career and she knows her daughter will be taken care of while she’s at work.  Her parents are being very supportive too, which will help make this easier on her and her daughter.  I just wish he would straighten himself up because I know she wanted to make this work.  She’s a strong person and I know she’ll get through this.
Cutting this short because now I’m tired and I’m going to go to bed.

*****Edit*****
KPMG sent Dave a formal offer through an email (through an attachment). We read it through last night and Dave is getting a pretty plum deal. He gets from Christmas through New Year’s paid time off. Isn’t that awesome? That’s not even including the three weeks paid off a year. So if we wanted to go see my parents for Christmas we wouldn’t even have to use any of his other vacation time.   They’re going to be paying for our medical insurance (we’ll have to be on private insurance for at least three months until all the papers go through) until we get on the BC medical card. They pay for Dave to join a gym. They’re paying for our moving expenses, plane tickets, and Dave gets a week paid "settling in" period too. July and August he only has to work four day weeks.  That means weekends on Vancouver Island!!! Yay!!!   I really think this job is going to be great for Dave and for our family because we’ll have more time to spend together.  Ok my mom’s on the phone- Gotta go!

night night! i am so excited to hear how your move goes. i keep telling ben what you’re up to – we’d love to move to BC but it looks like it’ll be a while off yet… xx

i will say when i first moved from my family it was much harder than i anticipated…so expect there to be a little bit of time when all you want to do is go back to family. it does get easier though, and you will start to enjoy it.
