I actually have permission to be mushy in a thread?
Well in that case…
She’s wonderful. I miss her so very much. Not having regular contact with her is proving very difficult. Sporadic phone calls after weeks of non-stop contact is proving quite a shock to the body and heart. But this is not whining - just observations. I love her more than anything. Anything. It’s a big statement I know and people often utter those words without giving them thought but I have. And I mean it. I’d give up everything I have for her. Looking back I realise how little focus or meaning my life had pre-Tonya.
Awwwww…you’re making me all weepy. I called P. this morning, first thing when they left for the hospital and the instant I heard his voice, I was instantly reassured and comforted. This might be something that other people take for granted, but when I think of P. I feel safe which is something I don’t think I’ve ever felt before. No matter what happens, when I think of him, I know it will all be okay.
Unfortunately, it was very early in the morning in Dublin, so I had to let him go back to sleep. Hence, talking to all of y’all.
It’s strange…I’ve come to a kind of peace about our current separation. I miss him terribly, but it’s almost as if I know him so well know, I can carry him with me through out the day.
< keeping fingers crossed for tater’s cousin, but hiding beside the bed in case she happens to wake up during the night from worry. Waiting for the moment she wakes up and then I will spray her with whipped cream, drop a bunch of sprinkles on her so her lucky man can gobble her up. I will leave of course so he can enjoy his human sundae >
techie, thanks for the mental picture. Right now, though I’d just be content to have him here.
My cousin spent the night in the hospital, she’ll probably be released this afternoon. It’s been an ordeal for the whole family…I’m grateful in a way that I could be here, to look after all the niggling details and give some extra attention/tlc to her younger sister, who seems to be getting lost in the shuffle.
I’ll let you know if anything happens…thanks again to everyone who kept me company last night. Y’all done good…it’s a truly scary thing to see what happens when the taterbrain is not occupied during times of stress.
Came back to mush on a bit more and you’re already up.
I’m glad everything’s sounding better hon. hugs I wish I’d been able to provide more of a distraction or provide more comfort, but I’m relieved to hear everything’s on the upturn. I was worried for a bit.
Hey techie, now we don’t need it how about we make real sundaes with that whipped cream? It’s late and I’m hungry.
Feel free to mush! Right now, I’ve waiting on a vid. of P. to download, so I’ve got tons of time to read it. Then, after I watch it, I can gush on and on about how cute P. is and nobody can say anything because I’m all pitiful and stressed.
Sundaes sound great right now…I’ve got some nice, homemade peanut butter chocolate chip cookies to go with, too. Mmmmmmmmm.
Well now I’M on my way to bed so my brain is unable to function overly well atm.
But today I did remember a snippet from Chicago. The Girl was ont he phone to a friend and she was excitedly telling him I was here and he obviously asked what I was like.
Her answer: “Oh he’s even more wonderful than I thought. He makes you believe the days are magical and the world a better place than you ever dreamed of.”
And sitting here remembering I snuffled a little.
I miss her.
She’s home and I’m watching her rest right now, so, yeah, I could use some distractions.
dpr that is so sweet! Awwwww, the two of you are so lucky! Not as lucky as me & P…but lucky.
Funny thing happened just now, my sister brought over some Apple sweet rolls, which I used to love, and she noticed I wasn’t eating any and asked why and I had to tell her that apples make me very ill now, because P. is deathly allergic to them. She rolled her eyes at me; phooey on her unromatic self.
D’oh! I meant to put a winkie in that post, so I wouldn’t look like a snot. Not that I don’t secretly believe that P & I are the cutest, luckiest, happiest couple on the board, but I try not to show off…even though our story had a missed flight and castle and cobblestones and trains.
Right now, though I’d just be content to have him here.
