Cat Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Thirty years with the love of my life - November 3, 1984 was the best day of my life. I waited a long time for him to come into my life, and both of us were scared to take that final step. Each of us had our own house, we were working in different cities, and we had some decisions and adjustments to make. We planned a honeymoon exploring state parks in mid-to-southern Indiana, but a "helpful friend" of the family made potato salad with a little "extra" - and some of our guests got the same food poisoning we did. Our honeymoon was spent as close to our bathroom as possible - at home. Never got that trip... It has never been "easy", but the best, most important things in life never are. Through him, God blessed me in ways I didn't know that I even needed until much later.He started planning a weekend away a month ago, afraid it wouldn't work out, and he was afraid I'd be horribly disappointed if it didn't. Heh - I was just surprised and happy that he was thinking about it. He WANTED to do something special. We had a wonderful weekend at Indiana's Turkey Run State Park. Yes, the fall colors were past, and the leaves have mostly fallen, but it gave the trails a whole new look. We could more easily see the deep gullies, wild rises, scenic spots near Sugar Creek, and the great, towering trees. And we walked trails we hadn't explored before.I am so grateful... Thank You, God, for this husband of mine. Quote Link to comment
