Well, where do I start. Summer is over, we had 68 days of 100+, missed the record here in ATX by one day. Trust me we are not complaining!! I know my sister up in NJ was jealous of the rain they had all summer. My sisters and I went to Atlanta for my dad's 60th Birthday - had a great time. August rolled around, was having a great summer, and then on th 16th my life changed. Not going into details, but my other half is on a travis county sponsored vacation...if you don't know what that means, email me. I know most of you do. Again, I am not going into details, but it has been a very lonely time, and I have had to learn to do alot on my own. For the last 3.5 years I have been taken care of, didn't have to cook much, well never really, didn't have to do much housework, was a pampered spouse. I have learned how to do laundry again, clean the house, and yes cook...oy vey. I am so thankful for my man who has written some of his recipes down and sent them to me. Trust this is very rare, so many people have asked for them and he never written them down. Now I have tried to cook and successful yes, taste the same, oh no...but at least I am not eating fast food all the time.
When I went to Atlanta it was the 1st time we were apart - and that was 5 days, it is now 32 days not seeing each other on a daily basis. We get to talk each day even just for a minute, and we write letters back and forth. Yes the art of letter writing...I haven't written a letter in over 15 years. It is nice to be able to write your thoughts and feelings and send them to someone who will appreciate them. You get to know someone on a level that is different than a twitter post, a facebook update, or a text, and yes even email. Many times we just write those in a quick moment. When we write a letter we have time to put our thoughts down. Anyway, I have a lot to write but it is getting late. Below our pictures of my dinners.
