Loving You Till I Melt

Something I've been meaning to post but never felt it was the right moment till now. I really love my boyfriend.

We have something I have never really felt before. A great feeling of passion and love fills up every inch of my soul. How wonderful it is to be with you. I love you.

A meaningful day

I don't believe in getting expensive things for someone on one specific day or buying something fuzzy. Unless it's from the heart and meaningful. On any day.

I was woken up by Nathan at 7:45am, something I was not too happy about since I went to bed at 1am after studying. We left the apartment shortly after and he took me to Cracker Barrel for breakfast. Something we never really do and I know he did it because he had to be at work at noon. I know he did it because he loves me. We didn't get each other anything but our time together this morning awesome.

The other day I told him I wanted a sunflower and not roses (if he wanted to get something). He told me he went to four stores looking for sunflowers. since they are a late summer flower they were hard to find and when found they were $10 a piece. At Cracker Barrel I found a a big fake on for about $5. I showed it to him and well he didn't get it. Sigh it's cool. I'll get one next time.

our relationship is a blooming flower that keeps getting bigger and bigger.

barf.

No but really. This morning was special and I loved every minute of it.

southern comfort.

One of my favorite things is to walk around the square when all the stores are about to close and the parking spaces are always empty. I go back to the time before Murfreesboro became so busy and how I wish I could have lived in it a little bit more longer then what it is today.





However, with this change brings business and jobs. General Electric has been gone for who knows how long and all the other empty factories are either standing alone or have been torn down for strip malls. Their are only a few left remaining.



My dad worked at a place called Tridon. I'm not sure if they still do what he used to perform but I do remember the smell of oil and metal. Each time he came home I would bury my nose in his work shirt because I loved the smell so much. On one occasion my mom and I went up to see him for my birthday. His buddies bought me a pack of oreo's, tall glass of milk, and dad got me my first Barbie doll. I remember that day because I was so happy.





I still have his work shirt.

I'm trying to come up with some good date ideas. Nathan and I go on movie dates and we recently saw Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs in 3D at the Malco-Roxy in Smryna. AWESOME movie. I loved it so much.

But going to see movies on every date can be kind of boring. I love just walking around on the Greenway, taking pictures, or when we used to go out on his motorcycle. Since school started and he works 40hrs+ a week, I'm stuck at our home, hanging out with my mom, or off to see my sister. He recently told me that he's trying to promote a guy. This means he will have Tuesdays off till his next semester! I'm so excited and I pray that it happens.

I miss him so much, even if I live with him. The only time I see him is in the morning in uniform, coming home from work, going off to school and then coming back. He's always tired, not like last year. How I do miss those first few months. BUT... I'm whipping up something.

1) Taking my camera where ever we go and lock lips. Then make a collage together.

2) Drive-in movie teater in Woodbury.

3) Picnic on a baseball field

4) Silly string

5) Go camping again and again and again and again (we got a tent!)
