Finding Myself Again - Part- Eighteen

Christmas From the time that I was very young, Christmas had always been my favorite holiday. It didn't matter if I received any gifts, I had always loved the lights, trees, and the music of the season. Until I was an adult, I never realized how poor our family had been. I didn't know it, because we... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding Myself Again - Part-Seventeen

In the morning, Heather kissed me face and lips several times and then wanted to make love. I returned her kisses but told her that it wasn't necessary to do anything just then because we had one other mid-morning appointment, but she said that there was nothing else important enough to keep her...

Finding Myself Again - Part-Sixteen

Winter 2019 I had warned Heather about the winters here in the Upper Peninsula or 'UP' as the locals call it, but I don't think that she believed me. It began to snow on the afternoon of October 17th, and we never saw the ground again until the first week in May. The only place to buy groceries in... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding Myself Again - Part Fifteen

In the end, that is what we did. I loaded my car with my possessions and dogs, and she packed hers with her stuff, and everything else was left to the moving company. Six hours later, we pulled into my home in the Upper Peninsula and went inside with the animals. Two days later, four moving vans... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding Myself Again - Part Fourteen

It's Part of 'The Game' The next two months were a busy time. Heather had no idea that taking a settlement and leaving her job was going to be such a trying issue. Once she told her attorney to move forward with leaving, the hospital began to push her to work more hours and gave her less than... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding Myself Again - Part Thirteen

I got to Heather's place about twenty minutes before she did, and did some of her laundries for her and started a light dinner. In the last ten months I was with Judy, I was doing laundry at least twice a day, and it became a habit. When she walked into the house, Heather gave me a tight hug and a...

Finding Myself Again - Part Twelve

It was about six in the morning when I woke up shivering. It took me a moment to figure out where I was, and then I realized that I was covered in the dew of an Upper Peninsula morning. I got up and wandered inside to take a hot shower and change my clothes. I was toweling off when my cell phone... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding Myself Again - Part Eleven

Heaven's Light Regardless of what you might think, we spent the next seven nights as we did the first, sleeping very close to each other, but nothing else. By the third night, it was like we had been together for years. My blood pressure had begun to drop, and Heather began to smile more. My doctor... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding Myself Again - Part Ten

The next three weeks were better than I could have ever imagined. We would go to restaurants, movies, and even grocery shopping twice. Heather seemed to smile more, and her endless conversations were just what I needed to calm myself. One afternoon, we were on our way to her aunt's home to get... Sign in to see full entry.
