the cowboy & the brown hound - beautiful Bess
Hey there handsome.
The cowboy and I and the three sisters, the girls - Miss D, Piper Belle and Bess are going on a road trip today. We will travel to nearby picturesque small towns and villages. We'll stop at the farmer's market, we'll walk on the beach with our family of dogs and he'll show me the nearby harbour where I'll learn to sail next summer. Tonight he'll barbecue. He's moving his much loved weber charcoal barbecue to this old brick house today. He's beginning to move his things.
I love him.
I can't imagine what my life was like before he was here - here filling all of this immense space in my heart and my head. He tells me stories and I love that he's such a chatterbox - a retired history professor who spent 32 years talking, chattering away in 50 min modules. We laugh together until we cry.
Today is day 16 of our big, new life together.
I'm sorry I can't post twice a day Martha ... I wish I could. I do well to get one post up.
Thank you, thank you - all of you, for the big smiles and happiness that I feel in your comments.

Every happiness. I'd be telling about the new love of my life on my blog, too - except the members of the congregation here read it!

I definitely have a big smile on my face for all of you!
ReplyDeleteReally fantastic. I suspect you have the most wonderful conversations. I've always thought being a history teacher or prof would be ideal as you only get more and more masterful at your subject, not having to keep up with technology but actually getting better on your subject the older one gets.
ReplyDeleteHe looks so kind too. Love that.
ReplyDeleteWow. What Chickory says above is SOOO true:
"it scares the heck out of me to think you might have sold it and moved away and missed him. "
