Back to Reality!

Reality?? What’s that? Sometimes I wonder if there is any such thing – but then I honestly do believe that everything has the possibility of becoming reality if it isn’t already, including our fondest fantasies. Napoleon Hill tells us that “whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.” In other words, whatever our minds can dream up, we can make into a reality.

Of course, we all know that not everything we dream up should become reality, but it’s fun to think about it anyway, isn’t it? One of my fantasies recently came true, and it was worth every second of it. Needless to say, it gave me a taste of what my life could be if we were together permanently.

Early May I said that my SO was going to have knee surgery in California. I just got back from spending several glorious weeks with him while he recovered. This is the fantasy that I’m referring to. Only twice in the past five years we’ve been partners have we been able to have several weeks of uninterrupted time together.

His recovery has been miraculous!

Besides getting to be with him for so long, it was a relief to be away from the normal routines of teaching, taking care of animals and garden, and other such activities.

Now I’m back to preparing for fall classes, and most especially anticipating his next visit to my “farmette,” so we can get back to our mutual fun. We did have fun during those few weeks, but most of our concentration was on his healing.

The next few days will be spent in catching up on reading all the blogs I subscribe to on Reader. I’m sure I’ve missed a lot with my absence. My SO sent me a lovely picture he found of a woman who’d had a handprint tattooed on her butt! So his mind seems to be back to normal! LOL I can’t say I’d go that far with tattooing, but it was an interesting concept!

PW - 'Kinky' is a relative concept.
