I am enjoying my king-sized bliss--all by myself.
The first morning I have not yet had to be up and out for any reason, I took advantage to dust off my (former) dead battery case. You know the one--big, purple with pearl action. And ears.
Ah, why I had I abandoned thee? What an absolutely glorious way to begin a Saturday.

In order to fully enjoy the effects of my little purple Peter Rabbit, I have to conjure in my mind the picture of him. The only man I have ever loved; the only one, in the history of my lovers, to have ever raised me to the heights of bliss just by a look. The only with whom I could fight and look forward to our reconciliation...and who would come after me when I never would admit I wanted to be chased. The only who would love to create with me as a team, be it a meal or a project, or even a work of art. The only who could tell by the tone of my written word--not even voice--my mood. The only one felt challenged by me yet not intimidated by my powerful and very complex spirit. The only one who could make me laugh and cry and feel valid no matter what, because of an acceptance of who I am. The only one who physically fit me as if we had been created for each other.
To experience a love like this makes everything else so gray by comparision. Unfair it is, really; nobody else could ever have a chance in my life. Having such a partner by my side like that, I feel invincible. I am learning to find this strength within myself. Some days are better than others, but I know this will be a good year. I am prepared to make it so.
And with a little help from my friend, all the better!

ResponderEliminarWow... and who might you be, 'KS'?
Be well, all.
This one took me a minute - guess my brain works slowly so early in the morning!
ResponderEliminarYou know who I'm....
ResponderEliminarCongrats lady. :) I, too, had a long-term cosleeper. In fact I just really got him out this summer when he turned 5, I got divorced and we moved to my parents' house. Now I let him have one night a week in my bed. And I, too, have rediscovered certain kid-free bedtime pleasures (although I didn't really lose them before - just found other times/places). Hope your year brings much happiness.
