Wow....really....it's not often I don't know what to say. I'm so happy that you were touched by the telling and the content, that means a lot. I got your email and am writing you back. Remember, the beauty of the story really lies in the moment....the experience of each other right now. That's how Jimmy and I live it. We drink each other up in each minute. The future may be lovely, but when we get too attached to what that may look like, we can take away from what is beautiful now....color it too much. That makes each day, each phone call, each time I hear his voice full of electricity and possiblity. Brilliant stuff, that. 
Thanks, Quirk, for your wonderful wishes. It means alot. :)

Yes, Jimmy and I often talk about the Other Shoe Syndrome. Like, when it's this good can it really be true. We've both been through so much and worked so hard to make our lives turn out...make ourselves into good, enlightened, kind people....I think we deserve it. We'll just take it slowly and not try to muck it up. :) Thanks for reading, sweet girl, and remember what I said. You are truly a beautiful, sweet girl. (I read slowly so I don't always comment, but I read a bit.) The universe's timing just doesn't always look like our own.

Cass, hey, seriously, feel free to tell me I'm awesome anytime. ;)
I am working on the publishing angle....although I sometimes still wonder if that many people would really want to read it. I send hugs to you down under and thank you for the other night. Hopefully we'll talk soon, one way or the other. Kisses to you, beautiful girl.

Sweet Jimmy...
There's a lot there that you haven't let breathe....it's funny what we do when we feel accepted by someone. What parts of us we discover.

Hi MiaElla
Nice to see you here. :) What nice things you said, thank you so much. He's so wonderful, really an amazing man. Everything he's been through, and he's just as loving and understanding as a person can be. Thanks for reading both of us and leaving a comment.

Having Jimmy in my life this holiday season has made some very difficult family stuff a little easier. He's brought me a lot of happiness and comfort. I'm glad you liked reading us, it's been fun (and scary as hell) to write. :)

Temple,
I'm not making this up...but this is one of my favorite things I've read on Blogit in the whole ten months I have been here. You know some of the reasons why already (I just sent you
)...it's a combination of a beautiful story, beautifully told and so full of hope for a bright future...my very best to you both.

Beautifully told. I am so hapy for you both, and I feel sure there is no other shoe to drop. (I think Jimmy was waiting for one!)

Temple - your writing is awesome. I've told you that before and I'm sure I will again. The descriptions are enchanting and demanding and you should have this journal published. I find it difficult to put into words just how happy I am for you and Jimmy. The words sound cliched at best. I wish I could give you a major hug. Have a great Christmas - I will be thinking of you!

Reading this again this morning...
on my way to see you, makes it even more special to me. You show me, or encourage me to express a side of myself that has been suppressed for too long... See you in a couple hours girl, then I'll thank you properly...

Hi kid cargo....
I'm happy I found him, too. He makes me happy. It all works out for a reason, right? I'm thinking of you up there and hope you are doing well. Merry Christmas to you, too, Lt.

Cynthia, nice to see a new face...thanks for reading.
It's great that you came here from Jimmy's blog...and thank you for the compliment. I know he will love to hear that, too. As far as my life...well, that is very sweet, thank you. It has been difficult, but the person I am now and the lessons learned have made the sacrifices worth it. One thing I know is that I would never have found or appreciated Jimmy being the person I was before the accident. Thanks for your comment. Hope you'll keep reading.

Bella, it seems fitting that you would be the first to comment.
Considering you've been there from the beggining with me. It is wonderful...so wonderful it scares me and I try to find reasons why it can't really be. We'll see what happenens. :)

Just discovered Jimmy and then
came straight to you. What a pleasure that you both write so well. I checked your member profile. Your life is an act of courage.
