Today is a very special day. One I’m sure people thing I should stop counting as an anniversary. But I won’t. I’ll remember this day for the rest of our lives. Because 15 years ago today was the first day of the rest of our life together. There’s no big romantic first meeting story. Just a couple of teenagers that met up at the mall one Friday night. We’d seen each other in passing for a couple years but never officially met until then.

Some days it seems like it wasn’t that long ago. Some days it feels like alot longer, because I feel like there was never a time I didn’t have him to love me. It’s as if my life started that day. I’ve never outgrown those teenager/first love feelings for him, and I am sure I never will. I love that we have such a special relationship. To me it is, others tend to not buy into the fairy tale, their loss. My life basically revolves around him, and I plan to keep it that way. When he’s finally home again, my evenings and weekends will be totally devoted to us. I’m going to take my hunny and hibernate for a very long time before the real world barges back in.

This is only the 2nd anniversary we haven’t been together for, second in a row. But we’ll make up for it in a short while. Even shorter than we thought.

I’ve been down
Now I’m blessed
I felt a revelation coming around
I guess its right, it’s so amazing
Every time I see you I’m alive
You’re all I’ve got
You lift me up
The sun and the moonlight
All my dreams are in your eyes

I wanna be inside your heaven
Take me to the place you cry from
Where the storm blows your way
I wanna be earth that holds you
Every bit of air you’re breathin’ in
A soothin’ wind
I wanna be inside your heaven

When we touch, when we love
The stars light up
The wrong becomes undone
Naturally, my soul surrenders
The sun and the moonlight
All my dreams are in your eyes

And I wanna be inside your heaven
Take me to the place you cry from
Where the storm blows your way
And I wanna be the earth that holds you
Every bit of air you’re breathing in
A soothing wind
I wanna be inside your heaven

When minutes turn to days and years
When mountains fall, I’ll still be here
Holdin you until the day I die
And I wanna be inside your heaven
Take me to the place you cry from
Where the storm blows your way

I wanna be inside your heaven
Take me to the place you cry from
Where the storm blows your way
I wanna be earth that holds you
Every bit of air you’re breathin’ in
A soothin’ wind
I wanna be inside your heaven
Oh yes I do
I wanna be inside your heaven

Love You Babe, More every day:o)

I decided to watch Wife Swap tonight after mentioned it at LJ. The first episode was a family of side show performers where the wife did everything for the family, and the husband expected this, the other the husband placed the wife on a pedastal and did the majority of the work at home as well as outside. Watching the side show guy with his attitude about “womans work” and the other guy doing everything for his made me think. I couldn’t stand to let my husband wait on me hand and foot regularly. I also couldn’t stand for him to expect me to do all the “womans” work. he’s my perfect mate. He’ll give me a break any time I ask by getting the kids off to school and letting me sleep, or making a quick meal if I’m too tired or frazzled, he’ll do household things here and there when asked. He doesn’t EXPECT anything, yet appreciates everything.

He doesn’t question my choices, or demand an accounting of every penny I spend. He trusts that I’ve taken care of our financial responsibilities before I buy impulse items, and doesn’t question. He never questions my choices in friends, or put me on any kind of leash. Even if he doesn’t like someone I am friends with, he says nothing. And when things have gone badly he’s there to comfort me, or listen to me vent without an I told you so. He doesn’t want expensive toys, except for his dream motorcycle, and because he is who he is I want to grant him that. He’s always believed in me, and supported me in anything I’ve wanted to do. Sometimes I wonder just what I’ve done to deserve this man. Whatever it was I’m glad I did it. And I hope to continue doing it. He doesn’t need to give me diamonds and roses, or anything fancy, and even though he has, I’d feel like the most spoiled, pampered princess in the world just because he loves me.

 

Post #2 for today. I had a hard evening with the girls fighting. I got so fed up, and needed smokes anyhow, that I just grabbed my coat and keys and went to the shopette. Don’t worry, The oldest is legally allowed to be at home with a sibling unattended now. As I was coming home, I had to smile. This song came on the radio. It’s so true for Ken…God I miss him.

You’re My Best Friend – Tim McGraw

I never had no one
I could count on
I’ve been let down so many times
I was tired of hurtin’
So tired of searchin’
‘Til you walked into my life
It was a feelin’
I’d never known
And for the first time
I didn’t feel alone

You’re more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
I don’t know where I’d be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You’re my best friend
You’re my best friend, oh yeah

You stand by me
And you believe in me
Like nobody ever has
When my world goes crazy
You’re right there to save me
You make me see how much I have
And I still tremble
When we touch
And oh the look in your eyes
When we make love

You’re more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
And I don’t know where I’d be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You’re my best friend
You’re my best friend

You’re more than a lover
There could never be another
To make me feel the way you do
Oh we just get closer
I fall in love all over
Everytime I look at you
And I don’t know where I’d be
Without you here with me
Life with you makes perfect sense
You’re my best friend
You’re my best friend (my best friend)
You’re my best friend (my best friend)

 

Hunny saw me as a redhead for the first time today…judging by his reaction, I think it was a successful change…

“It looks HOT! I can’t to find out if my new flaming red head is as hot as she looks.hehehe”

and…

Hubby (12/10/2005 11:04:45 AM): DAMN
Me (12/10/2005 11:04:55 AM): what?
Hubby (12/10/2005 11:05:15 AM): ya look even hotter on cam than in the pic

I think I’ll stay a redhead, and damn if I’d have known I’d get that reaction I would have done it years ago. I have wanted this for years. As long as I can remember. I was blonde as a child, and then went brunette naturally. But I retained the semi fair skin tone, and always looked pale with my brown hair unless I had a good tan. My uncle’s kids are both redheads. Their dad was my dad’s brother, both were redheads, both married brunettes, and I’m the only one that didn’t naturally have red hair out of us 3 kids. It drove me nuts.

So, I figured as long as I am going through my self improvement phase I’d just go for it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained right? Besides If people can have their hair died black with purple hilites, I can be red with blonde highlights…lol!! Thank you all for your supportive comments!!!
