Ok..you're never gonna believe this...pretty unbelievable to ME! He didn't even make it the same distance this time!! He got about 200/225 miles toward Beloit(the bus stop)and turned around this time!! I am beyond happy!!! I didn't even have a clue he was coming back this time!!! Corey was here (about 10min. before me)as I had just gotten back from my mom/dads(they called this am and cancelled my classes today) and Craig had told him to lie to me and say I had to look in my bedroom the ceiling was leaking(he knew I would say what were you doing in our bedroom..he's been told to stay out of there!) I of course did, and Corey said he was looking for whatever,blah blah and I proceeded to get really angry with Corey for not listening to us/me. Corey said please just check the ceiling is leaking really bad! I went up the stairs and the first thing I saw was Craig's laptop open on the bed..it didn't even register for a second...in that first second I just thought..."Oh my gosh, the ceiling is leaking and Craig's laptop is on the bed!!" Then I thought in the next second: "what IS Craig's laptop DOING here???" then he walked out of the bedroom! I was so surprised and in utter disbelief. I wouldn't have thought he would have done this the first time, but I REALLY !!!!!! can't believe he did it the second time..and nor can he!! He said all the way down there he was thinking "dont be stupid Craig you have to do this this time!" ;):)(L) When he called his friend Lee who was going to pick him up from the airport in the morning, he said you may as well not even try to come without her next time, and end up wasting more money!!! He talked to his Mum and she is fine with it too..they miss him, but she said knowing he is happy here with us makes up for that.(don't I have great in laws!!?) More later, I just want to go be with my hubby now...I'm in utter shock!!! Needless to say, he's not going to try to go again for several months..and maybe we can go together then!!! SOOOOOOOOOO HAPPYYYYYY I can't put it into words!!!

PS..thanks for the PM's I received and ALL of your supportive words on here..I really!! felt like I needed them this morning and you call came through like ALWAYS. I really, REALLY do appreciate you all!!!!

(L)(L)(L) Michelle

wow...so he was just going to visit his parents in England??

Man I love surprises like those...this doesn't fully compare to yours but the other day hubster said he had to work 2 shifts but he ended up coming home early...he came through the door and I just got so thrilled and my heart jumped...surprises are awesome when you don't know they're coming...

Well enjoy your time with him...and excuse me for my rant : )

aw, that is cool

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

When Dave came here he was supposed to spend only 1 month and ended up spending two years just because he couldn't leave either! He missed his family and his stuff in the US but everytime he tried to go back he saw he just couldn't. My heart beated so fast and I was always so happy everytime he decided to stay!!

So, I know how you feel right now...... enjoy every second with him and enjoy having this guy that loves you very much! :yes::yes:

Aww Michelle that is so sweet. Think Craig's friend is right next time to schedule it as a family going back home to visit.

Thanks again everyone! :)We just got back from Walmart...Craig decided to pick up a Deep Space Nine season 2 box set and an external DVD-RW drive that he's been wanting for his laptop! Will make all of his downloads a lot easier to save than just saving them on tons of CDs! He's pretty excited about that, and that he's home too! :) I'm just SO happy! We would have scheduled this as a family before, but it was too expensive. His friend Lee was just teasing him a bit about it all(is happy for us too) and said by the time we get done 'wasting' plane tickets, we could have all come over anyway..he's just about right! Anyway, off I go...I thought I would be up all night worrying about him so I left the housework..so I have it to do now. I'm just glad my baby is upstairs... :) :) :)(F) Michelle
