12 Inches and an Angel

This morning we woke up to a foot of snow on the ground – just two weeks away from the first day of spring no less. It was truly a beautiful sight to look at. All the snow piled up on the tree limbs, cars, traffic signals, shrubs, and everything else exposed to the elements. To be sure it was less than a joy to navigate through however we made a nice venture out to the market today and took the camera for good measure. Ninety minutes, a grocery shop, several photos and a snow angel later we were back snug and warm at home. Was a really nice way to wrap up winter – it’s supposed to be in the 60’s a few days from now.

Last weekend was a great one. Not that we’re out doing grand and amazing things, just that we’re together and having fun. It was really warm so we went to the park and sat at the summit watching all the dogs carrying on. A big change in 6 days weather wise no doubt – welcome to the Ohio Valley :-p . For my baby and me, no change at all… just enjoying each others’ company and having fun together. c — she just reached across my lap and typed that “c” randomly. I could bear to delete it but thought I’d just leave it in my post for shits and giggles. Anyways, we’re happy and doing great.

We have another month together here before Homeland Security mandates she leave the country – she doesn’t have to go home but she has to get the hell outta here! So yeah, she’ll go back home to Scotland for a few weeks before coming back here again for another 90 days.

Our two months together so far have been wonderful. Not without issues of course but without a doubt an amazing experience together. It’s been beyond what I’d always hoped it would be, and I know the next month is going to be great.

We’ve experienced real life together, the everyday thing. We’ve had arguments and learned things about each other that only can be known by being together every day. We’ve had amazing sex – and I do mean fucking fabulous sex. We’ve missed each other every day when I’m at work; I always phone her at 11:00 am to check in and to hear her voice, then I’m online on MSN with her the rest of the day. We’re probably very annoying that way to most people but we don’t care.

Largely, we’re on our way toward spending our lives together, someday in the not too distant future to being husband and wife. To being together every day without worrying about Homeland Security and immigration. I’ve never been this happy nor this content in my life.

After winter’s last gasp, soon we’ll feel the warmth of spring. This next month we’ll conclude our first 90 days together in real and prepare for her return. With the spring thaw comes a rejuvenation, a renewal. Our renewal will begin when she returns to me.

I think one thing we’ve seen since her arrival on January 11th is that we are truly for real. That what we have IS truly amazing and that we have so much to be thankful for. That we’re truly in love, totally compatible, and capable of making a life together as a couple. I love her with all I’m made of. I can’t wait to call her my wife, to know she’s never going to have to leave me for a few weeks again.

Four or five months from now we’ll be bitching about the unbearable heat. Just now, all I care about is having her here with me, weather be damned.
