I'm so thankful for skype. I don't know if I could handle being apart from Brandon without it. It is so good to be able to see his face. I love his smile and looking at his eyes makes me almost feel like we aren't even apart.

Things are going well here at Grandma's. I cleaned the house a bit this morning. Then I spent the rest of the day relaxing, skyping with Brandon, watching movies and cooking/eating. It feels so good to rest this week. I'm tired out from everything going on.

Only two weeks...

Brandon and I have been dating for four months now. We spent some time skyping today.

Grandma is doing a lot better. She went to the doctor today and got a shot for the pain and she perked right up. I'm a little afraid that she may have overdone it with all the walking around today. So hopefully she will feel just as good or better in the morning.

I slept in until 8:30 this morning. I had a good time talking with Grandma throughout the day. I've been eating good which is important. Brandon and I skyped this afternoon. I'm so glad that I'm able to skype this week with him. It was good to see his face and talk. We are going to skype more tomorrow. It is our fourth month anniversary.

I'm really looking forward to Brandon coming. Mike and Andi are going to be coming to our place in August for a couple days. I know the four of us are going to have a great time together. My mother is looking forward to meeting Mike and Andi as well as seeing Brandon again.

Last night Grandma slept better than she has for several weeks. I'm glad that she is getting better. I did the grocery shopping and the cooking today. This afternoon I read a Mary Higgins Clark mystery book. It was the first book that I have read for a long time. It was really good to curl up with a book and finish reading it in one day.

First of all I want to say that I found a wireless signal at Grandma's house. I don't know how nice it is to use someone else's signal but it doesn't have a password so I can. This is going to make my week a little better.

I had a good morning at church today. Then I had an awesome drive down to Grandma's house. It took me five hours and my legs were cramping up the last two hours but otherwise it was good. I had time to reflect and think about stuff. When I arrived, Grandma said that she had a good day and was doing better. But she is still in a lot of pain. It was hard to see Grandma looking so old and using a walker. But hopefully she won't have to use it for long.

I had a really good day today. This morning we had a belt test in the dojo. Everyone did well and we awarded eight new belts to our students including three brown belts. Brandon and I skyped all afternoon. It was our last skype date for a while. But we are going to stay in contact over phone. This evening I went to the beach for a bonfire. It was nice and relaxing except for a swarm of hungry mesquitoes.

This is my last blog post for a while since I'm leaving for Grandma's house tomorrow.

The past couple days have been a little tough on me. I'm feeling a little better so I've been teaching in the dojo. It was hard for me to not spend as much time with Brandon. I didn't get to skype him yesterday but we are skyping today. There is a bunch of things going on as well. My grandma is not doing well, I'm still sick and one of our student's sister died.

My summer is getting more interesting. I am going to be spending some time with my grandma. She needs someone to stay with her for a while. I'm planning on going there on Sunday and staying as long as she needs me. It might be for a week or maybe up to two weeks. It will be nice to spend time with her and make sure she is well taken care of. The only thing is that she doesn't have internet so I will be getting another break from facebook and from blogging. But I will still make journal entries and then post them when I have the chance.
