Home Again

I am so happy to be finally home! Last week I was in Bellevue, WA learning how to use a program to help me develop and maintain the Tribe's website. It was a lot of information to take in, but I think I've got a good grasp on how to do it. My room was awesome. It was a very posh business suite with two flat screen TVs, a couch, a kitchen with the works, king size bed, huge bathroom. It was really nice. I even got to spend some much needed time with my very good girlfriend Elie. We had such a great time catching up. Brad and I missed each other so much that he stayed the night with my at the hotel and drove all the way to work the next morning. He is so good to me.

This week I was in Leavenworth, WA for a Transporation Safety Confrence held by the Washington State Department of Transportation. I shared a room with my coworker who is an archeologist. To get to my room I had to climb up a latter, really weird. I had no tv, no cell reception, and barely any internet connection. It was rough. It really started to get to me how much I missed being away from Brad. I couldn't call him, email him, or see him....it was horrible. We found ways around it....he called my room, I texted him from the street since I got a little reception out there in the freezing cold, I also wrote him a letter with old fashioned paper and pen. Last night Brad and I spent some time together on our couch and watched tv. I missed the simple things, like spending time with him. I relaly can't imagine my life without him and I hope I never have to. He is my everything.
