3:15 AM...not a very happy thought....

Here it is ten minutes to 11:00 pm. I'm sitting on the couch bemoaning the time of the morning our plane departs for Kansas. 6:00 am is too early for flights....especially in our post- 9/11 world. But what a wonderful thought to see family, Karen's graduation, and time away from work! The thing I am really looking forward to is a Starbucks during our layover before flying into Kansas and traveling with my best friend and boyfriend, John.
I reached a goal last night. I found a new hairdresser. Small, I know. But it is part of my phasing in plan of moving here. It was December when I realized I had not officially moved to Virginia Beach. I didn't have a Dentist, Doctor, Beautician, place to buy products, Mary Kay lady, etc. I have just about marked them all of the list- almost officially moved in - a year later. Talk about a slow adjuster.

Moving to a new place is HUGE...adjustment takes time...give yourself a break! ;o) You're doing great!

Wow, Beth! I guess I never realized all that's really involved in moving in to a place. I mean, shoot, most guys don't even have 2/3 of those people on their list - that is if they even have a list at all. :) I'm glad you're getting settled in and feeling more at home. And thanks for opening your place to us so many times to save us on all the back-and-forth driving.

Hang in there, Bethany! Little by little, you will make your home with John a place that really feels like home! I'm glad your found a hair dresser! One step up! I'm proud of you for being willing to face so many major changes in your life with the marriage, the move, John's schooling, your job, a new church, the Varner clan! Wow! We love you, Bethany. It was great having you and John here for Karen's graduation.
Love,
Mom Varner

Bethany,

I just found your blog; very nice! I will agree with you, the litle things make a big diffrence! I also appreciate it when Russell makes the bed, does the dishes, etc. Trust you are well. Lets get together soon. We are moving in June, but will be in the area for 6 months to a year before moving to Chicago. :) Take care.
