sometimes for 13 hours straight.\u00a0 I never sat in a grocery store that long, but it had a nice cafe area, with a Starbucks and free wifi.\u00a0 Perfect!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The camper only has a small shower and enough hot water for a three minute shower, so I did most of my showering at the bath house at the front of the campground.<\/p>\n<p>None of this bothered me.\u00a0 It was perfect.\u00a0 I got to see Doug in\u00a0 between both of us working.\u00a0 He usually gets done around 2am.\u00a0 I tried to do the same.\u00a0 The camper was small, but I managed to make a nice breakfast for us of eggs, bacon and pancakes on an electric griddle.\u00a0 Some mornings we had cereal.\u00a0 For dinner, I made cheese quesadilla or toaster oven mini pizzas or even pierogies in the toaster oven.<\/p>\n<p>It was camping and living and working and making due in a small space for 10 days with each other while we both had stressful and hectic, and even unpredictable, work schedules.<\/p>\n<p>But none of that effected our ability to have a nice time.\u00a0 It was an absolutely wonderful time.\u00a0 On the eighth day, after passing our 8 month&#8217;s since we met, we could no longer hold back and declared the L word to each other.\u00a0 Those of you who know me may need to take a moment to catch your breath.\u00a0 I most certainly did.\u00a0 But it is true&#8230; I love him and he loves me and he is working hard to get everything in order to move to Arizona this summer.<\/p>\n<p>The moments we have shared over the last eight months have been fabulous.\u00a0 From the very first magical moment we met to now and every moment in between.\u00a0 We are forced to get to know each other through phone calls and text messages and eight visits across country to see each other over the last eight months.\u00a0 We learn more and more about each other every day and every visit and it seems to only increase our desire to be with each other always.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s crazy, but it is true&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<!-- Quick Adsense WordPress Plugin: http:\/\/quickadsense.com\/ -->\n<div class=\"ddac3911c67bc0e3db301fc01952e3bc\" data-index=\"100\" style=\"\">\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px;
