Book Of Likes Faces

Happy 5th Anniversary to my wonderful husband, You are my heart and soul, my better half, and the support that keeps me steadfast. I appreciate all that you are and the blessings we see all the time from our mutual faith in the Lord. The friendship we have and the partnership we share are simply inexplicable. Thank you not only for your love but more importantly for being lovable. ❤ I thank you whole-heartedly for being my best friend, my better half, my strength, and one of the kindest people I have ever came across on this earth! I adore you for working so hard and never giving up. Even when you feel like life is kicking you backwards..you ALWAYS push forward! You see the best in people even when they don't deserve your loyalty. You're there when people come running even tho they were shady towards you. You almost always have that contagious smile on your face & make everyone around you laugh. You love with all of your soul and have such a huge heart. And...so much more! I am nothing short of blessed to have you to share this life with. I never imagined that after five years, that I'd still want to know A LOT more about you. I still want to know what goes on in your inspiring heart, mind, and soul and I still want you to share them with me just like you always do. I still want you by my side every time. I still want to see your face every day. Being married to you has not in the slightest way changed the way I feel about you. In fact, it has only made our mutual love stronger & deeper. I still want all of it, and I want more. Thank you for giving me the married life that I have always dreamed about. Thank you for being the husband that I want and need. You have given your life to help and encourage others and have taught me how to be a fighter, to be loving and caring, to be fair, and to always to be humble (and that life on earth is temporary, and we take nothing with us from here). Besides God Himself, you're my rock & encourager... my Soul-mate! I am so proud of you! #marriage xoxo

Here's my idea that I've been thinking about for a while: A females only planned community. Women of any age can move in. You buy your plot of land and you build whatever kind of house you want - you want a tiny house? A sprawling Gothic Victorian painted completely black? A mid-century modern decorated to look like a Barbie dream house? All ok. You are only limited by your imagination and your budget. There are no HOA rules other than keeping your yard looking nice, but if you want stone, grass, wildflowers; it's up to you. It's a gated, secure neighborhood so if you want to go for a walk at 2 a.m. in your bathrobe, you absolutely can. There is a community fee and community buildings (like a roller rink) for awesome planned activities. Every first Saturday and third Saturday is dance club nights. The second and fourth Saturday mornings are Cap'n Crunch eaten in a giant blanket fort while watching cartoons. Flashlight tag every Friday. If you get sick, the casserole brigade will bring you food and tissues. If you need an emergency contact, we have a phone tree. If you want a break from socializing, put the "alone time" sign up in your window. We will also celebrate all of the holidays. Halloween will be an epic bash ending with a screening of Practical Magic and midnight margaritas. Thanksgiving will have plenty of folks who can't or won't celebrate with family. Christmas, Hanukkah, Diwali - you name it, we will celebrate it. Expected attire for the neighborhood is, again, whatever you want. You never want to wear a bra again? Fine. You want to wear a push up bra and stilettos? Fine. You want to walk your dogs wearing a ballgown and a tiara? Awesome!

I'm at such a loss. I'm heartbroken and destroyed. My little girl cat, Piglet passed away in my arms this morning. She was having problems yesterday so we went to the vets. All her bloodwork and tests were fine. The only things found were that she was dehydrated and had low blood sugar. We gave her Karo syrup to raise her blood sugar and an injection of fluids to help with the dehydration. I brought her home and she just didn't seem to improve. I kept giving her simple syrup and water and she would sleep for a while then wake up and we would do it again. This morning around 8 am she passed in my arms. I'm so lost. She is part of the reason I woke up every day. She loved giving me nose kisses and was so good at stealing food off of my plate. She was not just a cat she was my baby, my girl. She slept next to me every night and she just knew when I was having a bad day and would come curl up around my neck and give me kisses. I don't know what to do without her. I'm so damn lost. I miss her so much I can't quit crying. Rest easy my Piglet girl. Momma will see you again at that Rainbow Bridge, I love you forever.
