How Much Does He Love Me?

Let me show you the ways.

Here's our anniversary presents to each other (a bit early). Ours are black. If you have dogs, and especially if you have dogs that you let sleep on your bed, you know how expensive and/or how much of a hassle it can be to keep a king-sized comforter clean. Now we can wash them ourselves.

And below is my birthday present from DH. Again, a few days early but he just couldn't wait and we are attending an event later today in which having a digital camera will be a plus.



The instruction manual is more than a little daunting (even the one in English), but thankfully the camera has a "beginner" setting until I have time to really go through all the features. DH is an amazing photographer so he can explain all the fancy stuff I don't understand. Now I can post pictures I just took on here.

Thursday I attended an all-day seminar for work and ran into a colleague I initially met soon after I moved to California in 1988, through my ex. He was going on and on about how good I looked. In fact, he said I looked 10 years younger now than I looked 10 years ago. Well, he can't know that since he didn't meet me quite 20 years ago, but I forgave him the slight exaggeration. I told him happiness can do that for a girl. Later I thought, after all the sadness I've been through, especially lately, how telling it was that that's what popped into my head to say. I think I really am going to be OK.
