I have been one busy lady. Today I looked at my last posting, and it was almost 3 months ago!! I was also reading how I've decided to let fate lead me, and make decisions as I go along. Good thing . . . since that last post I have another special man in my life, and I certainly didn't plan it.

On the weekend I saw an acquaintance I hadn't seen in a while. He pointed out that it looked like I'd lost weight. A friend joked that in fact, I'd lost 180 pounds!!! He was referring to my ex . . . who is now my "ex" officially since our divorce was finalized at the beginning of the month. When I started this blog I hoped it wasn't because I was headed down that path -- funny, but that's just what happened. I now know it was a blessing in disguise.

Anyway, I did lose 210 pounds -- but I've since gained this wonderful man that I never thought would be as special as he is. It started as a friend asking if I wanted to go for supper . . . then turned into a second supper date since he was going through the city again the next week. By the third date we confirmed we were -- in fact -- dating! It's been pretty quick and intense, but we decided to let go of our worries and just go with things. We've both had long-term relationships that didn't work out, and we're both old enough to know that when someone comes along that just seems to be everything you want, you grab onto it and don't want to let go.

So besides spending every weekend with him, I'm building a garage on my property. And doing what I can to help my daughter move into a basement suite with her boyfriend. And I got my son suited up with a tux-rental for grad in June. Yep, I'm busy.

If I don't get back here for a while, you'll know I'm just coasting along . . . not planning necessarily, but making decisions as I go along. It seems to be working!
