OK just a quick update for me....we are making our wedding plans right now for August of this year in Hawaii....we are searching for the "perfect" beachfront love shack to spend a week at, and the other week at the Maui Sheraton (which is where we will actually get married)...I haven't put on my dress since buying it, which I really need to get it out and try it on again as I think it needed some small adjustments (hmmm....note to self: must try on dress again tonight so will not run out of time!)

But I am really, really excited and happy! I can't wait to marry him and take his last name (current last name is same as ex-h).

Then there is the other news...just found out that I am getting laid off as of June 30th (owner is retiring and closing up shop). Now earlier in my life, this would have really thrown me for a loop and made me freak out, as I was the main breadwinner when I was married, and then after that a single mom. But right now its like, yay! I can coast on unemployment for July and August, come back all tanned and sexed up and married, and THEN....instead of finding another boring job, I just might head back to school to pursue a new direction.

My soon-to-be husband told me he has my back no matter what I decide to do (although that doesn't mean I can join the circus, I already asked). I have never in my life had a partner who actually had their own money and could even assist in supporting me, so its just a really new experience for me....to be loved and supported on all levels...sigh.

And as for sex...

Well I can't get enough but that's apparently normal for me, and luckily, he's been really pretty active with me lately too so....when momma's happy, everybody happy.

For mother's day, he took me to his workplace where in their conference room they have a ping pong table...so no one was there and we played ping pong for over an hour! He is a total jock and pretty much beats everyone at nearly every sport...however, I happen to also be pretty jock-ish and I held my own pretty damn good with him...(don't want to embarass him and say I kicked his azz but....)

Then we went to Benihana with both my kids, the grandbaby, my mom, and my brother showed up later (long story). It was great!

I can't remember ever being more happy in my life. I think age brings some of that with it. But I do know that having a great sex life with the man of my dreams has a WHOLE LOT to do with it!

Hope everyone else can find their way to their dreams, too....
