My Lord,

Happy beautiful Sunday.  Since my morning's just beginning, I'd like to talk about yesterday.  Boy was it cold.  Yoga was awesome and she somehow knew that I needed to stretch. It was painful but necessary.  I'd been doing a lot of walking lately and my legs were sore.  I still laugh at how you're changing the paths that I'd normally take.  Thank you for the small town, the beautiful library, my new church, the yoga classes, the sun-gifts, the waves and the quiet walks with you.  I knew that once I made up my mind, I'd get back in the swing of things. I've changed my eating habits and I've lost a few pounds.  No cartwheels just yet. lol

I've surely spent enough time inside this past winter soaking in my thyroid issues and my longing to go on a date.  Well both issues have since past.  I still have the thyroids and always will.  And in regards to the dating "thing" it's turned out to be quite an experience.  My sister said that I should have at it and dance with "them" all.  I, on the other hand disagree.  First of all, I'm not afraid of being single and secondly, I don't want to settle just to be in the company of a man.  I love my own company and I don't want to lead a guy on with no intentions of going to the next base, level, etc.

Anyway, back to my walk with you.  I was listening to my voice memos and I must say, when I pour my heart out to you, I go all the way.  Each time that I listened to one of the private moments that we shared, I can remember them like yesterday.  You were with me during some really tough times and also during some very celebratory moments.

Specifically, was when I was living in Waldorf and Max had just passed away.  Unable to go home, I went to the Safeway to wash my hands and then began to push the empty cart around the store.  I was walking in a daze until my cell phone rung.  And then, last September, I went back to the house to check the mail and lo' and behold, my published book was in the mailbox.  Once again, I found myself at the same Safeway, washing my hands and not soon after calling Alex to share the great news.  I was super loud and excited.

You were there for me both times.  You are here for me now.  Not knowing what tomorrow will bring and fully trusting in your will, I believe with all my heart that you are preparing something very special for me and I smile like crazy every single day with anticipation.  Everyone finds it strange that I'm always happy.  I tell them that happiness comes and goes, but the smile I wear is eternal JOY!

Eternally yours
