Blessed by March 1st.

Hey everyone,

Not sure if anyone reads our blog anymore since we've been pretty dang lazy but I couldn't let this day go by and not mention a big milestone of tomorrow, March 1st.

Tomorrow marks 20 years that Joni and I have known each other and I thank God for her every day and that I met her. 20 years ago tomorrow is my original hire date at WordPerfect Corporation where Joni was already an employee and we met on my first day there. Little did I know at the time that she would be my life's partner, after a tumultuous 15 years of both of us reconciling how we felt and with our religion and sifting through a marriage and other relationships that weren't right for us. We've been through divorce, separation, deaths, and all the wonderful loving joys as well and we've come out on top.

I feel blessed every day that she is my partner. She is the one that loves me no matter what and encourages me to be the best I can be. I am the luckiest girl on the planet for the relationship she and I have today.

Joni, I love you so much and you are the one I want to grow old with, laugh with, and love the rest of my life. Thank you for always sticking by me and accepting me despite my short-comings. Happy 20th Anniversary tomorrow too. I look forward to the rest of our lives together.

A little time away from work and time with Kelly



Senga and I spent the last 10 days in Key West. It was time to take a break from all our hardwork and just relax. We had a fabulous time, even though the weather wasn't that warm. We have so many highlights from our trip, new friends, great memories and we met Kelly McGillis. In fact, we had Brunch with her one morning. She is a very lovely person, so down to earth and so open. We spent about two hours with her and we learned a great deal about her. She also wanted to know about us. She was curious about the "mormons" and shared some of her thoughts on spirituality with us. It was a great way to end our vacation.
