Well, it happened. Yes, it did. David proposed last Sunday. Yes. And I am finally coming down from cloud 9.... It wasn't a total surprise because we had talked about it but it still hit me as a lighting. Oh, my God... I never thought that I was going to be so shocked. Well, it wasn't exactly shocking but I really don't know what word to use. It was tremendous joy and excitment and emotion, etc., etc., etc.... I wish I could have better words to describe the experience. It was just extremely sweet and we are very happy. David is an amazing man and since I started dating him I knew he was going to be my husband. I knew that we were going to spend our lives together. It was so different than other relationships... and believe me, we are not both perfect but we are good together. And it just feels right. We both are quite happy.
Anyway, first thing I did with my ring in my hand was, naturally, to call my parents. They were just thrilled, as you can imagine. We then called David's mom who was also quite happy. I called my brothers as well and then we were just happy.... very happy, and we drank champagne ( a lot) and we hugged, and kissed, etc., etc. It was very sweet...
On Monday at work, well, I didn't get a lot accomplished. I just couldn't concentrate! And I was suprised with my reaction -- I thought I was going to take it more relax but I just couldn't do anything.... Tuesday was a little bit better and I guess I was able to send a couple of emails and get some things ready for a huge workshop that I was presenting Wednesday and Thursday. Today, at the workshop, I realized that I really needed to get down to Earth because work-related things need to get done. So, I was able to forget about it for a while. Not long, though.
Maybe I didn't get things done at work but I got things done back at home. A date has been set and place for the reception has been chosen. It will all take place on September 29th back at home. My mom and my sister-in-law (who is more excited than I am, I believe) will be helping me with all that stuff. I really don't know what to do --- but I am sure they know.
I am excited -- really excited. And I am very happy... life is good ;-)
