Speaking of love so amazing it makes people want to throw up...he and I have an important day on Monday. That will be the 2 year anniversary of when we met and had our first date at Cafe Pinot in downtown Los Angeles. We both agree it was the best date of our lives and it's just gotten better since then. 2 years of love and laughter with many more ahead of us. I am taking him to a nice place on Monday...it's my treat and it's a surprise. I am very much looking forward to it...and the rest of my life, for that matter.
He has been sick this past week. It might be the flu. So far I feel like I am coming down with something but only a little...I wake up with a sore throat and I sneeze sometimes but I don't feel full on sick and miserable. I am hoping my body fights this thing off, whatever it is. I could be imaging it but I think the running is boosting my immune system...my kids and Justin keep getting sick but I don't feel like I have which is very unusual. I usually spend the cold season miserable...and coughing. But not this year.
So, I was cleaning out things and getting rid of junk we don't need when I came across this ugly thing:
Holy ugly item, Batman! This must be some tasteless remnant of an ex-girlfriend...aaaaand in the trash it goes. I'm also getting rid of some hideous pink towels too...and linens. Ah...feels good to purge this junk!
I also found the card that came with my Coach purse from my birthday last year:
How cute and silly is he? Ah, I love him so.
He is on his way home from LA now...he's still sick. Cannot wait to make him feel better. He recharges at home...he gets home so irritated and frowny and is soon smiling and laughing. Happiness on that man is beautiful. Or, as he says to me all the time, beautimus.
He makes up funny words. :)
I cannot believe it's only been 2 years! I feel like I have known him my whole life. I have...he's the person I knew I was looking for even before I met him. And that night when we went on that date it was such a strong feeling of "There you are...I have been looking for you."
And he feels the same way.
Love is grand, people. It's the most amazing thing I have ever experienced.
Oh, he recently traded his bike for a green, tandem beach cruiser! He thought it would be fun to ride with me. All I could think when I saw it was ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS! When the weather gets better I am setting up a photo session...he is the most interesting man. What man does that? What man trades a bike with which he could make money for a tandem bike so he can ride around with his lady? My man does that. Mine.
I feel incredibly lucky.
Only 3 more months until we get to be with Mollie in Vienna! I miss her and the kiddos...can't wait to hang out more. So looking forward to Europe with my Justin. If I mention it he breaks into a big smile. He is excited to. He misses his sister and he wants to show me everything. We're going to pop over to Italy for a few days and have an adventure on our own. The first time either of us have been to Italy! So exciting.
I'm gonna go clean things so that he doesn't have to do anything tomorrow except REST.
My poor love...I love him so much!
