Sorry for the Delay!

Oh my goodness, it's been a long time!  I have been a horrible blogger--and I have a lot to say.

The last few times I tried to blog, blogspot just froze and I couldn't save my work or edit it, or anything, so I kind of gave up.  Whatever, it's working now.  So I'm back, probably with a vengeance.

A lot has happened since I posted last... I am in "a relationship" now, and nobody is more surprised than me.  I was just minding my own business, living my life, enjoying my job and coworkers, loving my family, and BAM!  An innocent dinner date with someone I had met months ago and didn't really hit it off with started it all.... I decided to go to dinner with him because he made a special effort to email me a happy birthday message and that seemed really sweet.  Thank God I did!  That has been maybe the best decision of my life.  I did not think this was in my future.  I'm almost 50 years old, for goodness sake! 

So let me tell you about him....Devan is quiet and shy, but very funny, and so smart he can hardly stand himself.  He can fix anything and likes to cook, which is good since I don't.  Everyone he knows thinks very highly of him, which I think says something about him and he loves dogs, old people and kids.  All pluses for me!  Plus he's crazy about me, which is difficult to resist.  He has the sweetest face of anyone I know--I'll probably marry him one day.  And yes, I do see the irony in my making that statement, but it just is what it is.  And what it is is wonderful.
