One Proud Wife

May 3, 2013

Today started out with a full on meltdown. Not a mini meltdown I'm talking crying in my bed and freaking out! I couldn't get hold of Travis for an hour and fifteen minutes and I was about to go crazy when he finally answered his phone. I had called the front desk of the hotel twice begging her to go check his room but she was the only one there and couldn't leave the desk. I was mainly worried because he had to be at school at six. If they were going to give him another try on the test I didn't want him to be late and miss out. Thankfully I finally got through at 5:30!



I went ahead and got ready for work even though it was early. I couldn't fall back asleep! I didn't have to be at work until 7:30 and I got there at 6:45 so I was too early to clock in. I took my time and ate some breakfast and sat around for a while. I texted Travis to see if he had any news at seven and he said that he was retesting at 7:30. I said a prayer and let my Mom and Beth know that he got to retest so that they could too! I wished my baby good luck and gave him my love and then it was off to work.

Unfortunately work wasn't that busy for a Friday morning. For some reason Jane had put three people on the schedule to work up front when you only need two so there was not even enough busy work to be done. I had way too much time on my hands! I think I looked at the clock about twenty times between 7:30 and 9:00 and then I couldn't take it anymore! I sent him a text just saying I loved him and waited some more. 

Around 9:45 I was going so crazy I jumped when the work phone rang. I dreaded answering and having to take someones order but I did my job and answered This is Louise speaking how may I help you.... I heard Travis say hey baby it's me are you busy and I stuttered to say uhhhh no. I couldn't tell but he sounded upset. My stomach did about twenty flips. He said "I passed my test!" I was so ecstatic jumping around I nearly forgot he was on the phone. I congratulated him and told him how truly proud I am of him! When we got off the phone I ran into the kitchen with my arms in the air and screamed he passed! Everyone was super excited for him! I text Mom and Beth to let them know and I think I told about fifty customers throughout the day too!

The rest of the day went by smoothly, I think because I was in such an amazing mood. Travis was texting me off and on throughout the day too. We did have a somewhat busy lunch but I didn't even care about that. I couldn't stop smiling and was just so happy and proud. I got out of work shortly after three so that was nice. I talked to Travis for a little bit on my way to the bank and then home. It was wonderful to be able to talk to him at a time he would have normally been in class.

I had intended to go put my clothes in the wash right after work but I forgot laundry detergent. I had to stop by the house to get that which is good because Beth needed a load of laundry done too so I dropped the clothes in the wash on my way to the grocery store. I was even all bouncy and happy in there. Travis and I were texting back and fourth so I took a picture of myself in the store to send him since I had on one of his tshirts. I thought he would get a kick out of me in a Metallica shirt! I did get a few funny looks taking pictures of myself in the store though.



I got a frozen pizza for dinner and a few other odds and ends. I stopped by on my way home to put the clothes in the dryer. When I got home Beth needed to run to the store so she did that and got the clothes out of the dryer. I folded them all and Zoe was in heaven. 


This cat loves laundry

We made our pizzas and ate dinner then got the kittens out to play. It was so precious watching Zoe play with Shelly. They get along so well. Zoe did get sad when baby Shelly had to stop for a nap though! Sweet thing climbed right up on my shoulder and slept for about fifteen minutes! 


Wes got to watch WWE Smackdown in my room on the big TV for getting greens all week at school. He had his wrestling ring and all of his men in there and was playing and acting out the matches. He set up three of them to be this one group called The Shield who wear riot gear. He chose three men who were wearing all black it was so cute! He had them powerbomb Kane which is what they were doing on the show!



One of the most awesome parts of this amazing day was that I got to talk to Travis so much! I talked to him throughout the day in texts and we talked on the phone a few times too. Right before bed we talked for a full forty minutes! The most we have talked in one day total since he left was 26 minutes! I was so happy! I'm going to sleep good tonight for sure! :)


Now I need this shirt!!!
