First off, please excuse the typos. My phone is a problem. We are lucky that we see each other every other weekend. Last night we were talking and he asked of i could fit in another trip to NY because he was making plans with MY BFF, Darrell, to fly up and go to a mets game. So.i was able to get reasonable tickets and we made plans for sept 13. Then he asked me when I was coming in oct, and I told him and he got us tickets to see Les Miz on broadway, AGAIN, AND got us orchestra seats! So i decided to surprise him and got us tickets to a JETS football game in Nov! ANd we figured we might as well round it out with hockey tickets in december when I take my exchange student to NY! But the best part was looking at my calendar and realizing we have 10 trips between next weekend and the end of the year spending 41 days together, incuding a weeks vacation, thanksgiving and CHRISTMAS . We are seriously talking about closing the distance if his transfer goes through......before the new year! And.... he asked my daughter if he could ask me to marry him and he has a ring! I am so excited. Things are looking up. I am posting this NOT to brag, but to encourage you that there IS hope. BEcause in February I was sure we would never be together or see each other due to his new job. Its been trying...and almost impossible sometimes, but i DO see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hang in there, everyone. If its meant to be, it will be!

Glad to hear the happy news
I made love to him only twice, she thought and looked at the man laying asleep beside her. And yet still it is as if we have been together forever, as if he has always known my life, my soul, my body, my light, my pain
