ill be talking about it today and tomorrow, so deal with it.
i had a going away party last night that was bittersweet. I'll miss everyone, but I think a lot of family will visit.
my brother is coming over with his kids tomorrow. I'll miss them the most.
im so excited, but it still doesn't feel like it'll be permanent. Like, after a week I'll feel,like I should be getting a flight home, but I get to stay.
So excited for you to go! I'm glad we got to meet and I hope you have a lovely new life in Edinborough.
Thanks! I'm glad we met too, and your sweet little girl.
you're also forever part of family lore as the woman who pulled through and saved the day by fixing my zipper lol.
also, when I got my hair done the woman who was doing it was terrible. Like, did not know what to do with it. Another stylist came to my rescue and her name was April. I may have to name our first child that.
I can only imagine the range of emotions you'll be feeling in the next few days & weeks! What a roller coaster! Savor every moment, the highs and the lows.
I'm so excited for you to finally get to move to the next chapter in your life!

I'm so excited for you. I can't even imagine how amazing it's going to feel to be together with your H every day! And knowing that you don't have to leave him after a few weeks.

I've picked up bits and pieces and know you were put through paperwork hell to get married, but don't know your story. How did you meet? I would love to hear your love story

I moved to Scotland six years ago on a working holiday visa. I was there for two years. With 7 months left I met a guy, and we had a great time. When My visa expired I kind of figured he would take the easy way out and end things. Instead he came home for Christmas with me. Met much of my family, and when he went back to Scotland we agreed to give it a shot long distance.this was in 2011. We got engaged in May 2014 (only saw each other 3-4 times a year for a week or so). We were meant to get married in August 2015 but he ran into visa troubles (he's Nigerian living in Scotland). So we had to postpone indefinitely. At the end of July we got the paperwork we need so rescheduled for October. We had a perfect wedding day and after a long wait time for our marriage certificate I was able to apply for my visa. I had hoped to get there for Christmas, but I got the next best thing which was getting my via returned to me on Christmas Eve. I leave tomorrow to go live in Scotland with him, after four years apart.
