Background (if you don't already know): FI and I are both from MI, but he's lived in the Cincinnati area ever since I've met him. I moved in with him in August and am now 5 hours away from my family.
This isn't a huge issue because I'm used to being away..didn't see them much in college and I lived on my own an hour away last year. Plus FI and I drive up a decent amount since both our families are there and we are planning the wedding there.
FI is going to Nashville this weekend with his cousin and a bunch of his friends. I was contemplating driving up to MI because we haven't been there in awhile and my dress came in! But we will be up St. Patty's Day weekend so I don't really wanna do 2 weekends in a row.
My little sister (not that little..she's 22) is going through a rough time. She just had to say goodbye to her boyfriend who's moving to NJ for a job. I feel horrible because I can't physically be there for her. FI and I did long distance for a long time and it sucks.
But I just talked to her and she was talking about driving down with our other sister this weekend! No one from my family has been down here to visit yet. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE it if they came. I don't really get any alone time with my sisters anymore since we all have SO and since I'm far away so it would mean so much to me if I could have some quality sister time and if they saw where we are living.
I don't know if it will happen. But now I have my hopes up. Bahhhh. I miss my sisters. No real point to this post, I'm just excited.
