Half my life...

Hello strangers! I keep popping in and out of this blog like a jack-in-the-box toy.

Keep winding...and eventually I'll show up.

Today has been a really good "hump day" so far - except for that small instance this morning where I had to hang a sign on my daughter's bedroom door that read "DO NOT CLEAN" for our maid - out of fear that she will never return if she had to clean that room - I am extremely happy.

I heard a song this morning on the radio and it took me back - it took me back 18 years ago:

This was my daydream.........(cue the back-in-time swirls)

I met a guy 18 years ago, this month, and we fell immediately in lust. (yes, lust - not love - shhh pay attention)
This guy taught me about the Law of Gravity on a kids playground see-saw.

He taught me how to survive a mild concussion from an announcer's booth/softball field fence post.

Together we learned how to treat a severe allergic reaction from the grass on the 50 yard line.

He taught me the hilarity of being romantic on the hood of his car and accidentally mooning a cop at the same time.

We've learned a lot from each other over the years - good and bad - but we have never failed to see the true potential of our relationship.

We've been through so many life-changing experiences together that we are the perfect Yin-Yang.

I've been with this man for 18 year now - half my life - and he still finds me attractive and sexy. I'm proud of the man he's become and couldn't have asked for a better husband or father.

End daydream.........



I love you Mr. Strong! Here's to another 18!
