Tomorrow Is THE Day!

It seems like it’s been forever, when actually it’s only been a little over 4 weeks since we were together last time. We have talked and texted every day, but it isn’t the same as being together in person. So, tomorrow, I am getting on a plane and flying to LAX to spend a week with the one and only man who has held my heart for over 50 years.

Yes, it still seems surreal. That after all this time, we are still as in love with each other as deeply as when we were first together. We still giggle over the craziest things, we still get butterflies when we talk about our future together, and we still say I love you in the middle of conversations.

Remember that he had chemo last week and he should have been resting, regaining his strength. But, he’s been making himself crazy, trying to make his home comfortable and cozy for me. I have repeatedly told him it doesn’t matter where we live because HE is my home, my life, and MY strength. He’s a Virgo, like that is supposed to explain things. Go figure.

At any rate, I’m going to be away from the keyboard for at least a week while I enjoy our time together. I do promise to take a ton of pictures and share my trip with you all when I return to Texas on November 2nd.

AND … the next separation won’t be as long! He’s coming to Texas on the 14th for a long weekend to meet my son and the grands that live here with us. Then I’m going back to LA for Thanksgiving! And on THAT trip we are going to meet one of his sisters in Las Vegas.

Who knew my life would take this turn? Not me, that’s for sure! But here I am, traveling all over, doing things I had only dreamed of and living life OUT LOUD! While at the same time being loved so deeply, so completely, so fiercely.

Never, ever give up on your dreams my Darlings! If I can go from just absolutely knowing deep in my soul that I would never find love again, to rekindling a love SO fucking strong that it stood the test of time for 53 years, anyone can reach out and grab that brass ring.

Until next time, my Loves …
