How things change

2 years ago, things started to fall apart with me and Boyfriend. I won't get into any details but let's just say that he was an arse and a real meanie...* Anyway, we were this close [-------] to breaking up when we both had a bit of an epiphany of what life would be without the other; very dull and not funny at all- especially Boyfriend's life ;). So we worked hard for us and we love each other more for it and whadd'ya know? we got engaged last January (2009) started to plan for the wedding and was about to set a date when "the little Thing" announced that he/she was coming. We are only 26 days away from that and I'm bricking it but as I sit here I can only say that all the ups and downs are worth it if you really really want something. Cheesy, I know, but true.

*It didn't help either that I was constantly bringing things up, sulking and complaining about how bad it was here and how happy I'd been with work/life in Sweden. It's never one person's fault but Boyfriend and I have agreed that he was the nasty one.

Ems, it makes me happy and glad to read this. It's nice to know that even a couple as in love as you guys are have their times of crisis... making it through them is what matters and I do believe is what love is all about. Coz let's face it, men can be bloody stupid and mean at times and not realise how lucky they are to have us! ;) xx

We're just making sure that we don't get complacent about each other ever again and do little things and nothing together but also spending time apart. Boyfriend's going to a music festival in May which could be less than a month after Baby's birth and our friends think I'm crazy for letting him go. But why would I want to stop him when I know how important music is to him? I also know he'd stay home if there was a need for it, without me having to ask him to. + there's some sashimi in it for me - I'm such a slut ;)
