Once again I'm a horrible blogger and can't keep up with life. Another month flew by so fast. This whole school has been chaotic and tested me a multiple ways. Only a month until the end of school. So much to teach my kids in so little time!
We had last Thursday, Friday and Monday off for Easter Break. I took a 6 hour long trip to Vermillion, SD to meet up with a guy that I've been dating. He works as an engineer out there for now but really wants to move back to work on the farm where he grew up. I spent a couple days out there with Brady in Vermillion and then we went to Bloomfield, NE to the farm. Talk about the life of a farmer! I went into their machinery shed and literally stopped in my tracks. Everything was so much bigger then I ever imagined! I got to sit in the combine (massive I might add) and helped him use the disc thrower to till part of their fields. He said if I could drive a bus then I could drive a tractor. Theoretically....
Even thought it's only been a few months since we've known each other it's already the healthiest the relationship I've been in for a number of years. He makes me feel protected and needed. We both work hard at the relationship and give the same amount. Brady cooked me breakfast every day that I was there. He makes me laugh until my stomach hurts. We both have Crohn's and he knows what it feels like to "have a bad day". We have so many similarities it still makes me nervous. I know though that things work out for a reason and I can use what I learned from my past to make this relationship work. Coming out here to SD has helped form me into the person I want to be and I did that being single. I feel secure enough in myself now to feel comfortable in a relationship. I'm lucky to have a guy in my life like Brady. It's crazy how much life can change in a year isn't it?
