"Well, well, well...Oh well" as John would say....

Thats John Lennon for those who are not hip to the 60's. I am doing a blog, Rick is sleeping on my/our couch in my/our rent house....after a hard 2 days work packing Ricks/our Catoosa house and moving stuff to my/ricks/our new house. Yep. We are the proud owner of 2 houses now and proud to be able to rent yet another house at the same time....anyone need a vacation place to stay? We got houses.....It has been for the past 102 days/3 & 1/2 months, a strange out of body type experience...and the ride ain't over yet ..... Rick and I have spent the last month finally communicating...in different ways...being as different a person as we each can be at this point....and it does pay off in the long run, for good or for bad...at least you know where the other one is standing....ya know, I could ramble on here for days and no one would still ever quite "get" what we are doing, how we are changing, how it affects our relationship, if it is indeed working....because obviously, WE are the only ones IN this relationship.....suffice it to say that "every day, in every way, we are getting better and better"....as unique individuals and as a unique and individual couple....growing in places we only dreamed of growing, building things we only ever dreamt of building, being what we never imagined we could be....for ourselves, for our God, for eachother and for those we love, who somehow will benifit from our lousy mistakes.....Please dear God in heaven, pay attention to each others lives and learn...something....how TO  live or how NOT to live, doesn't matter, just learn something....if I had to do ANY of this over again, I would....the heartache that made me want to die, the pain of loss that not many can understand, only those who have lost their best friend on earth have even a deeper pain than I have had....I would relive the trauma, the trial, the absolute turmoil in my life, I would ,for real, do it again....for all I have learned in these past dreary days, has and will BE well worth it .....because it has made ME a better person. Period. The end.
p.s. thanks to those that have prayed for us, thought about us, cared for us, worried for us...we are FAR from where we need to go, but we do at last have a little light on our path....please keep up which ever one of these you were doing...we need it.
