and to reconnect with a very dear mind and smile i haven't shared time with in a bit.....
*Big smile* for the Bacon Baroness....i truly hope you have been happy since we last talked my dear....
I almost have room to set up the easel again...i do look forward to it.....
and with more time...shall come more inspiration....to which...shall come more of my writings,poetry,and ponderings.....
and if your not smiling by now......i will pinch you *laughs*

Have a wonderful weekend....and Thank You for your time.....
I am always flattered and honored.

Let me catch you up a little......
Let's see....guess i will start from the beginning....i promise i'll make this as short and sweet as possible
and pain free *loads a shot of morphine*.
I met her when she got stationed in my unit overseas....was mostly a work related thing at first....i worked in Quality/Inventory/Stock Control....she worked down range in the dirt and mud....2nd Largest Munitions Depot in all of Europe (some 260 bunkers worth)...and considered the largest threat to Russia (who monitored us 24/7 via satellite)....located just outside the 1k Zone of East Berlin/Russia.
A little time had past and i'd some contact with her....one Friday/Saturday night(not sure) i had worked late,
and upon arriving back at the barracks had realized i had missed the mess hall.....by some 3-4 hours....and my neighbors,weren't able to deliver anything as they usually did for me.....So i decided to go to the EM Club and get one of those ever so high class cheeseburgers with a tequila sunrise ....or 3....(had been a very rough week)
On my way out i heard a noise....looked and saw someone watching tv in the tv room....other then that...was dead silence in the building....and it was her...sitting by herself.....
So off i went....starving....made it to the stairwell ....and my "good guy" heart kicked in....i saw this image of a lonely woman sitting by herself on a weekend evening....and well...i felt bad.....i see being alone as a curse....and one i wouldn't wish on anyone...always felt that way because i'd been there on a few occasions.
So i walked back...said "Hi"...introduced myself...(found out later she knew who i was quite well already lol)
and i told her i had seen her all by herself....and asked if she'd like to accompany me to the EM Club for my dinner "special"...after a laugh ...she said "Sure...sounds good".....a year later we were married.
Ah the good ole days.....

A New Year : A New Beginning
Well....Where to start...as the title states I am about to partake on a life changing journey....
One that i was on some 23 years ago....Yes...that is one "very" large detour to take....
But we do often wander from our paths onto anothers,or even combining the two,many times only to find ourselves returning back to it.....just much farther down and much wiser then when we left it.
This is my journey through my return as i walk with friends of old...and a few new ones who are quite dear to me.....warriors all in themselves.....on the quest to happiness and smiles.....May your laughter be hearty....and you heart be warmed.
