After Months of Talking on the Phone

We finally went on a second date!
The date went well.


He was so excited to see me he didn't get much sleep the night before.



A photo of Res by himself since the lighting in the one of us together made his blond hair fall out. ðŸ¤£ðŸ˜‚😜


When I arrived he had this box waiting. 


He made it for me during our time apart and filled it with treats for Messy and gifts for me.


I like him because while he's not perfect, he tries. He admits his weaknesses, can say sorry, and accepts that I'm flawed too.


We have a lot of common values and beliefs,...


        


So maybe...

Maybe, it's time to hope for more than a glimpse of what could be. Maybe this time my heart won't get broken and maybe the guy who's easy to talk to, who thinks I walk on water, who is understanding, full of patience and incredibly kind will stay for more than a few precious moments in my life...

      I don't miss Dave, he barely crosses my mind. I miss Res and what we shared. I didn't know anything could be so incredible, but he's chosen a different path.
      I'm sad but at least I know how happy I can be with someone and will no longer settle for men who don't see me or treat me with the love and consideration Res did.
      Res is my daughter's father, so did we do it? My name ain't Mary and thank you heaven for that!

A Parent's Nightmare

It was supposed to be an ordinary day, but a feeling something was going to go horribly wrong kept me awake the night before. I waited six months, because the first time they mentioned the routine procedure and the risks I knew my daughter was going to end up dead, or brain damaged.  I thought I'd waited long enough. After six months I believed things would be ok.  I told myself to relax and stop being paranoid. I shouldn't have. The anesthesiologist with tears in his eyes told me, "I'm not going to lie, she's not doing good. This is the worst day of my career." He was thinking of his career while my little girl was fighting for her life!?  He felt bad so I said simply, "I know you tried your best," wondering if my happy sweet little girl would ever smile at me again. There was no point in making a scene. It wouldn't save her. It might kill her. I had to step back and breathe. I needed to focus on giving her all the love a

A Girl Can Dream, Right?

Preparing for the cruise, a whirlwind of excitement and anticipation courses through my veins. Amidst sapphire waves and ocean skies, I'm eager to meet with my teammates, especially one sexy beast I've been mentoring late at night, a little too often.  A single man secure enough in his masculinity to be sponsored by a woman he'd never met, it was more likely I'd win the lottery but it happened!  Men that secure, are  as rare as a million dollars popping out of thin air!  Finding one man who would just listen to my dream let alone believe in it and share it, up until him has been impossible... yeah I'm ready to go past first base and then some! As I finish packing, I can't help but indulge in a few tantalizing semi erotic fantasies. From our first conversation, strategizing his path to success, I was completely intoxicated by him. After months of working together, I'm still feeling an  undeniable connection that has nothing to do with business. His confidence

Dreaming of Death

I dreamed I died, my usable organs were donated, and the rest of me was fed to the birds. I requested before I died, those who received my organs would gather once a year to celebrate my daughter's birthday. I dreamed pieces of my flesh were sent out to wildlife sanctuaries around the world.  I dreamed each year, I could see my daughter with my eyes and she could feel my love surrounding her.  I dreamed I soared with eagles, dove into the sea with the ospreys, and traveled the world in ecstasy.  Gradually, I felt myself fading away into the darkness.  My daughter's birthday came again. I lived in her smile and warmth. Like a brilliant sun, she brought life back to the surface. My essence swirled around her, through her. She became my home. I lived in her joy, in her peace I rested. Trees grew from the soil marked with remnants of my flesh, I felt the sun on their leaves, and I felt the cool rich soil bathing their roots. I felt myself in rivers flowing free and wild, splashing
