My partner just asked me to help him get a 10th wedding anniversary present for his wife. We have three hours to kill before the 'big dinner thing' tonight so I said I would. It means that I am going jewelry shopping and someone else foots the bill. Ain't it cool?

Of course it would be cooler if I got to keep what I buy, but you cannot have everything in life

Just talked to H: he is not in very good shape. I am not going to think much about it, though. Totally beyond my control, anyway.

Cartier... here I go!

I am lucky to have two partners who are really commited to their families. One has been married for 40 years and the other for nearly 10. And they have supported me a lot during this stressful time. Even to not questioning why I am still trying.
