June 25 So Here...in Kentucky since Father's Day Sunday with my daughter , Sophie , two kittens ,Eddie and his daughter in tow .
He brought along his youngest daughter to help us move out of our Massachusetts rental home .
She's a sweetie , and boy can she clean and help pack.
We stopped off in Ohio to see our friends and went with their family to King's Island amusement park by Cincy .
Steff got two kittens along the way at the friend's house and is tending to them at the other house.
Currently I'm being shuttled between two houses ( they are one mile apart)and doing stuff in each .
I am adjusting to having a teen and two younger kids around me on a regular basis .
It takes a lot of energy, but they are really great kids , so it's all good.
A lifestyle with more people in it is going to take some time to get use to as Steff and I have been basically alone since we left my parents in Texas nearly two years ago.
Eddie and his family are very helpful and friendly people , and that makes this transition so much easier.
Some days I wake up and can't believe how life has changed over the past few years.
My life has taken so many twists and turns , yet I am still standing and am very happy to boot .
The kittens , all gray Ebbie ( short for Ebony) , and Zelda.
June 02 Local FlayvorOn one of our last raw milk runs here in Massachusetts before moving, we ran into this local specialty :
Yup,you read that correctly.
We each took a bite and decided that while it would never be a personal frontrunner favorite like say sweet cream, dulce y leche ,chocolate brownie ,hazelnut , blood orange or passionfruit sorbet ...it was not as gacky as one would suspect.
It was spicy/nutty/chunky , however, fitting it into our ice cream repertoire was not something either of us had an inclination to run out and do.
Being the culinary adventurers that we are , we had to at least give it a try .
This dairy confection is not a contender for my apres dinner delights , and shall remain in the realm of been there, done that and just leave the t-shirt on the rack cause clingy cotton 's not my thang.
May 20 Tattered TulipsGave notice to our landlord last week .
Everything is slowly starting to fall into place , with a bit of persistence on both ends of this move .
Boxes are being filled , calls being made and loose ends tied together.
While the last of the tulips are swaying in the breeze looking a bit worse for wear , we endeavor to pack up our lives yet another time.
This time the move is instigated by my intense desire to be with a man who is in every way imaginable my partner .
Feeling this amount of joy about my present and future is something I never expected .
This is exactly where I am suppose to be going at this point in my life.
Ihave no doubts .
And think not you can

April 26 MMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I spent nearly three weeks with Eddie in Kentucky from the beginning of April until a few days ago . Life was good no matter what endeavors we undertook together . We just work .Period.It's all good. As we said our goodbyes the other afternoon , and I went to stand in the security queue, I vowed that would be the last time I would ever walk away from him again . Living seperate lives is quite the challenge , hence, the moving date has moved up again from the original fall time frame .
