4th of July

18 years ago today my husband proposed to me, just over 6 months ago it came to an end. We never know what is around the corner. I'm very thankful for the good years we had. It at least allowed a seed to be planted. Whether it grows or not only time will tell. Each one of us is given a chance to choose our Father's way or turn our back on it. I'm just so very thankful for the strength that can be found when I'm willing. I can honestly say I'm doing pretty well for the most part now, there's iffy moments now and again but I'm sure that'll happen for quite a while to come! There's such a comfort in knowing that there's a purpose to everything and it's only for our betterment that things happen, even the really tough experiences. I know i'm repeating myself but there's no way I could be where I'm at unless Dave had disappeared. As strange as it seems, although i love the guy dearly and miss him, it's probably the best thing that could have happened to me spiritually. I still don't know what's in store for Christina and I. My business is very slow still but with conventions coming up and preps starting in a month that might not be a bad thing!! I'm looking forward to being able to do more there this year and that will only be possible if business stays slow. On a side note I'm able to sit in my chair in the living room and see fireworks from the street behind us. It appears there's a new person on the block because that has never happened before! Pretty when they set them off but the cats aren't so happy about it because it's pretty loud since it so close!!
