We come into this world as we leave it: alone. Along the way we make friends, we love, we give, and we get. Over here, with so many people, I can’t say I’m alone. I’ve made new friends, I’m trying to give, and I’ve been welcomed like never before.
But the other half of my heart, the part I can’t live without, is 7000 miles away. She’s patiently waiting for my return, taking on all the handyman stuff I did and more. She supported me in starting this crazy adventure. Now she lifts me up from afar when I need it. She is my heroine.
We’ve never been apart this long. Even with all my HP globetrotting, since I met Linda at the start of my junior year in college, the longest we’ve been apart in 36 years, 5 months: 2 weeks.
I love you my darling. Happy Valentine’s Day.
That’s beautiful. Happy Valentine’s Day!
Beautiful thoughts for your love. Happy Valentine’s Day Linda. Nice tie Jim!
Thank you! I knew there would be challenges. I could even guess where they would be coming from…but I didn’t expect them to happen all in the first month. Can’t wait until irrigation season. That said, I couldn’t be more proud of you for doing this.
I’m glad that Bonnie’s stints abroad gave me plenty of practice at staying connected via instant message. Chatting with you is still the nicest part of my day. I love you.
What a lovely Valentine’s sentiment – you two are very lucky to have such a special relationship.
Beautiful. You are as in love with each other as the day you wed. Keep it that way.
Love you both.
From a technical perspective, WordPress is a great tool and there are lots of people who can help you. Then just figure out a simple organization for your pages. As far as writing goes, I write when I feel something and try to blast it all out in one sitting. No self-critique, no picky grammar stuff. Just get the thoughts out of your head and into the document. Then walk away for a while. Then come back and edit. And walk away again. Repeat until you really feel it says what you want it to in a way that your readers can easily grasp. Then, and only then, publish. Now, I’m a novice and still learning, but this seems to work for me.
