very few

in my estimation, very few people think i am as crazy as i actually am. as i sit here, sitting in my first home (purchase), staring at blank walls, i reflect on the last year. i believe it was about this time of year that i was complaining to everyone i know that things were "boring" and i was craving "change." well, WHAM! like a mack truck, i have had constant change for the last year. and let me tell you, i am realizing how truly nuts i was to ask for all of this...

august, 2006 - jay asks me to marry him
fall, 2006 - jay is offered his dream job in fort worth, i am offered a "great job" to go to fort worth, we purchase a beautiful home in a wonderful neighborhood and immediately start dreaming of moving back to dallas
winter2006/spring 2007 - wedding planning, showers, all fun, but completely busy every single weekend. literally.
summer 2007 - wedding plans in full swing, jay gets raise, i get a new job and the "summer of katy" begins...if you read the blog, you know the deets

last night was the last day of the option period on the house, so today i signed off on it and signed a lease on a great place in dallas. we are excited to go back to the life of renters for a bit. ah, the bliss of non-home-ownership. we did try to find a house, but were not able to find the dream spot yet, so we chose a favorite spot in the uptown area and will have a blast as newlyweds there. i will miss my little place here in the fort, but going back to big D is like going home. it will be as if i have been on a long vacation and i am back to the place i want to be. it's still strange looking at the blank walls i have begun packing, but in a week we leave for our wedding...two weeks of fun and happiness, then back to start our new life together in our new place back in dallas. we are both thrilled and can't wait to get moved and leave for our beautiful wedding!!!!
