As I ran today around my mom's neighborhood six times for my seven mile run I imagined myself in Central Park. I was thinking about how after my whole life of wanting to go to the Big Apple and being here in Texas instead I was OK.
I'm OK with the fact that I put my family first and I realize what is best for my husband and kids even if it means putting my wants aside. This makes me feel really grateful actually.
I should probably back pedal a little bit to catch those up who have no idea what I am talking about.
Wednesday night Nate and I found out he would be going to Haiti for two to three months with the Guard. That was all we knew and still know. With one day to go before our 'girls getaway' to NY I decided that there was just no way I could be in NY when he left, if that were the case. There was no way Charly and Piper would not get the chance to see him off. That was a chance I just could not take. It seems to me that that would be the obvious thing to do.
New York will always be there.
So here I am still waiting. Waiting to find out when and if Nate is leaving. Tomorrow I'll be heading home to HG with the girls (who were supposed to be in SA until Wednesday) and hopefully get to spend a few days with him before he leaves.
As for the meeting with the Principal, I'll blog about that tomorrow. Maybe.

:(, what an amazing experience Nate is going to have (I hope). I seriously can't believe you can run like you can! I'm totally jealous, running is such a head game for me, you need to tell me how you do it.
