Remembering an Online Friend

Online friends are something very different. You can count them as some of your very best friends, yet you’ve never met in person. Some will debate if that’s a “real” friendship or not. They can debate all they want. I for one, know that yes, my online friends are indeed real friends.

Online friends are there all hours of the day and night. I’ve made online friends in all time zones. Someone is always up and always online to reply to an email or a quick text for those really good online friends that we’ve exchanged phone numbers as well.

Prom Dress Shopping for Last Time

In all honesty it was the first time as well. We’ve gotten off super cheap. Dances aren’t a big deal in our school. In 4 years of high school our oldest has only gone to one homecoming and now her Senior prom. See, we got off CHEAP in that regard. No worries, the two years of wrestling probably made up for that folks.

Anniversaries Apart

I haven’t gotten in a groove here with the firefighter wife posts but we’ll get there. I just worry about overloading the site with them and chasing others off. Oh wait, who am I pretending to be? Wow, this just got me scared. Am I not posting things because of what I think other readers want to see?

Let’s just move on from that. I’m too overloaded to analyze right now.

A couple of weeks ago was the 23rd anniversary of our first date. On St. Paddy’s day to be exact.  Like other anniversaries, I spent it without him. Such is life as a firefighter wife.

My Endometriosis News

Ugh, I was so excited and I know I let myself live in a world of fantasy about next steps.  I’m at the last step before getting a hysterectomy.  Yet, I’ve done so much research that I know this may possibly not fix anything permanently.  Especially since I’ve been blessed with IBS that I’m hoping is from the endometriosis.  Of course, it’s not common for the endo tissue to attach to so much of the intestines so I was blessed to have a severe case.
