Is It a Once In A Lifetime Thing?

Wow seems I have been a little busy with things. So…. Mr X and I have had 5 dates total now. He is a really nice guy and doesn't mind that I am still a little messed up in the head. What it all comes down to in my thoughts though, is that I wonder if in love you can find the real McCoy twice. I loved Pete unquestioning and unconditionally and our relationship was very unique to me. I trusted so completely. It seems everyone spends a lifetime looking for that one true love. The one person you will spend the rest of your life with. The one who will love you the way you in turn love them. If a person finds it once, loses it to death, can one be so lucky as to find that kind of love a second time? If not what is the point of looking? We would be settling for seconds on any future spouse we take. Or could love be what we make out of it, what we put in as an effort and in turn what our spouse puts into it. Maybe true love, the real McCoy, is two people so devoted to each other that neither lets up in the way they work at the relationship. Maybe its both people putting forth everything they have to make life good, to make their relationship strong. After all, nothing of true value is easily earned.

Little Thieves

Some have had the pleasure of meeting my liitle carpet sharks. They are sneaky little creatures that will steal at any given opportunity. I often warn my friends to keep their purses shut and not to leave keys or wallets laying on chairs or coffee tables. I usually clean out under my bed once a week from these little horders. It is their main hidey hole and collection drop off. I missed a week and here is what they collected in a two week period:
5 Magazines
1 Exedrine box
1 Anti acid box
1 Fly swatter
1 toohbrush pakage
1 empty razor package
1 Bible
1 Christmas decoration

1 kitchen timer
10 wine corks
1 shoe
3 flip flops
1 squeky toy
3 balls
1 battery pack
1 stuffed teady bear toy
1 curler
Several pieces of kibble
1 package of coffee filters 2 stress balls
