In Retrospect

Dearie me, mr. blog. I'd love to say I've been so enormously busy these past few weeks that I've had to tear myself away from my rush of day-to-day hustle and bustle to write here; course, I'd love to say that. In all realism, though, it's been rather dismal around these places - there have been some moments, though - and I'll get to those in a bit.

I've been pondering the idea that I should finish up my writings here and move on to something else. Clearly the only people who read this thing are the ones I have no intent on speaking to; that, or my family - whom I love dearly for keeping in touch. :) In retrospect, though, I'm glad that neglecting my blog.. and forgetting to write in it are the only issues I'm havin' a hard time with. Someday, when I have kids and more pressing matters, it'll be these days I look back on and hope for. I'm pretty sure of that one.

Yesterday night, after coming home from a long day of shoppin' and making our way to my mom's house... we blew a tire.

It was flat for about 5 minutes of horrid bouncy driving, a failed attempt to remove the nuts from the tire to replace it, and desperate hopes that we'd make it just the few minutes up the road; just a minute from my mom's house, though, the tire blew and we were forced to walk the remaining way to her house - up until my uncle happened to be driving by and picked us up. Luckily, he helped us get off the old tire and put on the donut. Today, we got the tire repaired - and for free. :)


We've been finally working on our bathroom with help from my cousins; god bless them! :P

Still another wall to do, tub surround, the faucet hookups and a closet - then painting and deco, etc.... but this is a new wall thus far. Done our way and done proper. And our new tub is pictured in the second one, beautiful, cheap.. easy! (Not to mention, I fit in it comfortably!) What more could I ask for in a tub?


As for much else... we got the A/C unit in the window.. cleaned this place up a heck of a lot, and moved our bed across the bedroom.. atleast only for the time being.. so Willy can be closer to the air conditioner. =D

And no official plans, as of yet, but we're going to be moving on to much bigger and better things - assuming all goes well, that is. More to come about that tidbit at a later date.

Later Gaters!

Five. Nine. Oh Six.

May 9th, 2006. The date I dedicated myself to this silly little boy at the time ; a relationship that certainly would not be short and sweet, but thriving on till this day; three years and a month after.

It's almost ridiculous the amounts we've put ourselves through and hung tight, the problems seem so frivolous to the final outcome. We've matured and grew as a couple, and as one. He's my best friend, and it simply amazes me; how could I have lived without you? A question I used to think foolish in my single-days is now the topic of my mental debate; where were you all my life? and why did God.. or Zeus, or.. whoever.. choose to deliver you to me now? Regardless, it seems that I needed you; that wherever our lives develop to from here, the inevitable is that I've grown from our experiences as a couple and can only hope that these experiences continue until well into our eighties. It doesn't really matter what we're doing; s'long as it's together. I believe that together, we can do anything. Thank you, God.. or whoever, for the 9th of May, 2006. Even before then... when we met.

On a non-mushy note, we finished weeding the garden! Haha. Unusual change of subject so drastically. :P But we don't do too much 'round this house to update on (note the lack of updating regularly). We drove around a lot last Thursday, went to Forest Ontario; a town where my old campground is near, took pictures on the beach and ate at KFC.


Work's been good, the dogs are doing great and... we might turn our house into an income property, and moving out? Stay tuned for definite decisions. :D Willy's rushing me to finish here. Off to play some Harvest Moon! :D
