San Antonio

As you may already know, we found out this week that we will be spending our last year in the military at Lackland AFB, TX. Our DEROS is set for 1 Nov, and Jay is trying to get out of here as early in Nov as possible. Since I had already planned to be in the States through the 2nd, it seems almost pointless for me to return to England. So, at this point, it looks like I will likely be meeting him in San Antonio shortly after he arrives from here. That means I have only 37 days left in the UK!! Haven't really worked out any details yet, but we should be getting a lot more dates/other info this coming workweek. I know the next month is gonna fly by and I will probably feel totally unorganized and scattered by the time I leave. I just pray that all will go smoothly for both of us. I wish we could get there together, but obviously it just wasn't meant to go down like that.

Although I have never been to San Antonio, I am getting really excited. I've looked on yellowpages.com, and there are SO MANY stores that I love! Ross (4), Target (20), Bath and Body Works (9), Old Navy (6) (for the sake of time I won't name them all). With numbers like that, there are *bound* to be some close to me!! After nearly 3 years here, I'm stoked to think those will all be so easily accessible!

Also, it looks as though houses there are pretty cheap. We're still considering the pros and cons of buying a house there. Just one more of the *many* decisions we'll be making in the next 6 months or so.

Oh, other big news! I got an email that my best friend from HS, Elizabeth, is engaged! She and Steven will be getting married sometime in March and I'm going to be her Matron of Honor!!!! Wish I was close so I could help plan the wedding and the parties and all the other stuff the MOH should be doing, but I know she has friends there who will help with that.
