DJ and I are doing fantastic! Our 3 year anniversary is next week and I'll be going down to GA to spend a few days with him and I absolutely can't wait. The distance sucks, but I feel like I should thank it for existing and making us have to work so hard for what we have. It's hard but it's totally worth it and makes me appreciate him a million times more.
He's gotten the okay from his therapist to increase his T, so I think his plan is to do that starting in December. He just bought a new suit and is getting more and more comfortable (and cocky) with himself and looking more and more handsome every single time I look at his face and see the confidence just pouring from him. It all just makes me realize how extremely lucky I am to have him and makes me more certain that he's my soul mate and the one I'm going to spend the rest of forever with. Plus, I'm one lucky woman to have such a good looking man by my side.
The wedding planning has kind of come to a stand still, currently. My full time job got cut into a part time job and money is far too tight right now for planning a wedding that I'm paying for. So, for right now we're leaning towards the eloping side and having a reception at a later date when we can afford to pay for all of it. We're thinking a small ceremony on the beach with our parents, brothers, sisters, and our two closest friends. Something small, quiet, and a little more symbolic of joining our two families then just going to the court house to sign the papers.
So, despite all the challenges we've over come, the constant thoughts running through my head, and the distance, we're doing pretty fantastic. I've gotten a lot better at speaking up when I feel the pressure of keeping all of this in and he's a fantastic listener and we work through all of it.
I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving (Here in the states) and I only wish you the Merriest of Christmases and very Happy Hanukkahs to those who celebrate it. (And all the other holidays in between.)
