I always thought that our kind of relationship only existed in dreams
In the past I did not want to let anyone really know me
Now
I find that I am telling you things that I long ago forgot - because I want you to understand everything about me
In the past I only wanted people to see the best of me
Now
I find that I do not mind if you see my faults - because I want you to accept me the way I am
In the past I thought that only I could make the right decisions for myself
Now
I can discuss all my ideas with you and you can help me make decisions - because I have such a complete trust in you
In the past I didn't care how I treated people
Now
I find that I have a new sensitivity towards everyone - because my softest emotions have been awakened by you
In the past love was a word that I was unsure of
Now
I find that inside me - every fiber, every nerve, every emotion, every feeling - is exploding in an overwhelming emotion of love and that love is all for you
I always thought that our kind of relationship only existed in dreams
Now
I have found out that our kind of relationship is even better than my dreams
I love you

Sweet Gus
Don't you just feel completely helpless when one of your animals are sick?
My poor Gus has been suffering with the reverse sneezes and his eyes and nose are runny and you can just tell that he feels pretty crummy.
He's curled up - (well as curled up as a 95 + pound dog can curl up) on the end of the couch beside me. I have my blanket draped over my legs and have found myself pulling the blanket over the top of poor sick Gus and tucking the blanket behind his back, and baby sweet talking to him - "Poor Gussy, he don't feel good", "Do-Do's medicine will make him feel better" "mama's sorry he don't feel good".
The poor dog just looks at me like Geez woman, can't ya see me panting here! I don't really need that blanket! and yeah I feel like crap, but I really like it when you talk to me in the tone.... But I'd really be in doggy heaven if you'd just get up and get me one of those stinky, chewy treats that I love! I can see one in my immediate future!

Conversation Hearts
Let's all be honest: We love the conversation Hearts - some of us love to eat them (By the handfuls!), and others just like to look at them.
So, I figure that in 5 days it will again be Valentine's Day - So, why not combine them with CHOCOLATE!!! Oh yeah CHOCOLATE!!!!
This is a quick and easy Valentine's Day treat to make for the sweet tooth of the one you love, or for the kids to take to their school parties, or better yet to enjoy yourself!
Valentine's Day *Conversation Hearts* Chocolate Bark
2 bags white chocolate chips
2 bags semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 cups rice krispies
conversation hearts
sprinkles
Place 3/4ths of the white chips in a glass or metal bowl, place over a simmering pan of water and stir until melted. Remove from heat and stir in the remaining white chips, stir until melted. (if the chocolate is too thick you may need to add 1 TBSP of crisco.
Stir in the rice krispies, spread the mixture onto a waxed paper lined cookie sheet.
Melt the semi-sweet chips using the same method (you shouldn't need any crisco here).
Spread the semi-sweet chocolate over the white chocolate and krispies mixture.
Sprinkle the conversation hearts and sprinkles on top.
Let it set up until hardened. Break into pieces.
Oh so yummy - enjoy!

Little things
What do you really feel about the person you share your life with?
Do you still feel the same way you did when you first got together?
Or has time changed your perception and perspective?
Have you ever taken a good look deep down inside yourself to examine what your true feelings are?
Or do you simply just float from day to day just letting things happen as they may?
This is my 20th year with a man who I can honestly say still today makes my heart sing!
One summer day last year he was mowing the lawn on the riding mower, making the stripes in the lawn the way I like it. ( I know it's anal retentive!) I was sitting on the steps watching him, he went behind the garage out of my sight, when much to my surprise I see the mower is coming out from behind the garage without him sitting on it, suddenly I see him hanging onto the back of the mower being dragged across the lawn on his stomach with a shit eating grin on his face!
He makes me laugh so hard that my eyes start watering and my cheeks hurt and my sides ache!
When he smiles at me I just melt!
He asks me why I chose him, and my answer is always the same - "Because your Him"!
What I mean by that is he has all the qualities that I have always wanted the man of my dreams to have!
When I ask him the same question, his answer always is - "Because your my Girl"!
It's the little things in life that matter most - holding hands while watching tv, making fun of each other over the stupid things each of us does, a neck and shoulder massage for him - a foot massage for me, respecting each other - whether we agree with each other or not, being there for each other when things in life don't go the way we plan and celebrating together when they do.
So I'd have to say that yes over time our perspective and our perception of the one we have chosen to share our life with does change.
Mine has only deepened - "Because your HIM"!
