A beginning to a middle

So it's been a few days since my boyfriend left to work in Manitoba. Knowing when he was going was probably the oddest part. I started missing him before he was even gone. The day he left every moment felt like a goodbye. It was almost a relief when the final goodbye came at the airport although it was hard to let go of him knowing I wouldn't hold him again for months to come. A good friend of ours drove us to the airport and then drove me home afterwards. I had a few cries throughout the day but ultimately now accept that this is the stage of the game we're in now. Just waiting. I already picture the day he'll be home. I really shouldn't do that as it's months yet, but I can't help it. It makes me happy. He will be reading this while he's gone to get a glimpse of my summer. Of course we talk on the phone but his location has made communications limited so this will help us stay connected and see each others mini adventures (or grand adventures?). I haven't much to say thus far. I don't know how interesting this blog will be, especially being coupled with my laziness and the large list of goals I wish to achieve before the boys return, but I'll just do it anyway.
I will be making a picassa account so I can post some pictures here.

Key points at home today

It's been 2 days since I chewed my nails (a new record?)

The dogs are back from their camping trip

I've had the song Beetlebum by Blur in my head all day and had a lovely time making supper while playing it on repeat. Not sure why I love that song so much but the sounds in all respects make me so happy.

I discovered "soundhound" is an awesome ap on android. I heard a song playing in a seperate store while waiting at the post office that I wanted to know the name of. I could barely hear the song but in a few seconds, despite noisey people and machines surrounding me soundhound guessed the song correctly!

Apparently the Canucks won.
