Some of you already know my story, some of you know parts. I want to share some of it with you and hope that you can feel my happiness. I also want to give hope to those that are still searching.
Two years ago October 15, I became a widow. I became physically ill from the pain. I also became worried about my mind. (I am bi polar, stress is not good) I admitted myself into the mental hospital. After being there for a couple hours, I realized that was not what I needed. After talking to the Dr. the next morning, he agreed with me, and sent me home. It was just the grief.
As the days passed, I had to face life, and began going through his things. I discovered many secrets he had kept from me, and they broke my heart all over again. I was a mess. I looked, and looked for help. There is very little out there.
I was isolated up here 80 miles from my family and friends. I intentionally didn't make any friends when I fell in love and moved up here. I didn't want to get my heart broken when I left. We had decided when our kids were out of school, we were moving down near my family. We had already bought the property to build a house on.
I continued to look for help in every way I could. I finally was able to go back to work, and a man I worked with told me about MD. I signed up, and began lurking. I decided there were some really nice people here, and reached out to them by writing blogs about what I was going through.
So many of you showed how much you care for other human beings. You reached out to me, and helped me through the hardest time of my life. I have become very good friends with some of you, kinda lost touch with others. (not that I have forgotten you)
You made me realize, that I could have all of you as friends, and no matter where I ended up, I could take you with me.
I am about to embark on that journey.
On Sept. 14th of last year, I disagreed with a gentlemans comment on a blog. I emailed him and told him so. He emailed me back, explaining how he had come to his conclusion. We looked at each others profiles, and realized we could have written them for each other.
Things progressed to chatting on Yahoo, then to the hours long phone calls every night. On Nov. 30th, he came up here to visit. It was magical! We "knew" for sure then, that it was real.
I went down and spent 8 days with him a couple weeks ago, and he is coming back up here in May. I will be moving down there this fall.
Yes, he lives 1,000 miles away from me, but I was already planning on moving to FL when my son graduates in May. The Lord put us in each others path, there can't be any other explanation.
I didn't know I could ever be this happy. He is so much more than I ever dreamed a man could be. He treats me with so much respect, he listens to me, he dreams with me, he is romantic, considerate, caring, compassionate, understanding, (he even laughs at my silliness) I could go on and on about what a wonderful man he is.
Just know, it is possible, and we are proof.
May you all find the happiness that we have.
Duvvy, I love you with all my heart, and can't wait until we can be together all the time.

Thank you Loreli. If I hadn't gone through those hard times, I maybe wouldn't appreciate him as much as I do. Thank you for standing by me during those times.

The Lord put us in each others path, there can't be any other explanation.
You know how I feel about it right?
Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction. Antoine de Saint-Exupery:
Love is the strange bewilderment which overtakes one person on account of another person.
James Thurber and E.B. White:
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. I Corinthians 13:4-8
That one was in our marriage vows^^^^^
Congratulation to you both. ~~ Sniff~~ Anyone got a kleenex now??

Thank you all so much. Never in my wildest dreams, could I have ever hoped, to be this happy! He has taught me what true unselfish love really is. Becky, Daisy and Katt, you are 3 of the ones that have seen me through this entire transformation. I love you guys! Thank you Donnna. Pam, you came in a little later, but I do so much enjoy your banter. Thats one of the things that kept me coming back here too. I needed to learn to laugh again, and the people here helped me realize it was OK! Don't worry CPU, I'm not going anywhere. I have too many wonderful friends here. Katt, I may have to borrow a couple of those.

You deserve to be this. You've been through more that most people and now you have found your home.
