Gerd started his new job today. We (his mom and dad, his best friend, and me) spent all weekend moving him to his new apartment 2 hours away. The new complex he's in is beautiful, and he has an awesome view of the pool from his back patio. It's right down the road from his favorite restaurant, and 40-ish minutes from work. And 100 freakin miles from me. I'm going to miss him like crazy. Even though we didn't see each other much when he lived here anyway..not at the end at least. He came home on a Thursday, we saw each other thurs., fri, sat, sun and then didn't see each other again until Friday. We spent all day Saturday moving, and just he and I set things up in his apartment Sunday. That little bit of alone time was nice, I just wish it were a little more. I don't know when we're gonna see each other again. I'm praying that he'll come to my little brother's graduation next Friday... I can't believe little Jakey's graduating from highschool. In August he'll be moving 9-ish hours away to go to Texas Tech University. We're a very close family, we work as this tight little unit, and when one part's removed, there's potential for the whole thing to fall to pieces. I'm worried about my mom. She was a mess when I was gone for awhile...she leaned on Jake. Now that he's leaving, I know she's gonna have a tough time. That's her baby. Okay, I've rambled on for long enough. I think I'm gonna head to bed early.
