a love letter

IT IS NOW 1:30 AM, SUNDAY, 9/17/06

JIMMY WILL BE HOME, FOR GOOD TOMORROW..........ON MONDAY, 9/18/06

IT IS ALMOST UNBELIEVABLE.

WE SPOKE AS USUAL, MANY TIMES ON THE PHONE TODAY. 

WE FEEL THAT THROUGH THE YEARS OF JIMMY BEING IN PRISON, WE HAD IN SOME UNUSUAL WAY ALMOST PUT OURSELVES IN SOME DETACHED STATE OF MIND................ALMOST LIKE A TRANCE..........JUST SO WE CCOULD GET THROUGH IT

NOW, WE ARE BACK TO OUR NORMAL, USUAL SELVES.......

JIMMY SAYS HE ALMOST CAN'T BE.LIEVE THAT IT WAS ACTUALLY 3.6 YEARS OF BEING AWAY....................AS FOR ME, I TOLD HIM I REALLY DIDN;T WANT TO REMEMBER TOO MUCH ABOUT THE LAST 3.6 YEARS............I REALLY AM TRYING TO PUT THE PAST OUT OF MY MIND

WE ARE BOTH CALM AT THIS TIME...............

COMING HOME IS A NORMAL STATE AND IT IS NORMAL FOR JIMMY TO BE HERE.............THIS IS WHERE HE BELONGS.............THIS IS HIS HOME, AND WE ARE MARRIED, AND HAVE OUR 3 PETS..........WE HAVE A LOVING HOME......

I FEEL VERY PEACEFUL................HAPPY INSIDE AND OUT..........VERY CALM.

PEOPLE MAY SAY, "OH, IT IS A TIME TO CELEBRATE!".............

IN ONE WAY IT IS A CELEBRATION.BUT IN ANOTHER WAY, IT IS A NORMAL PHASE OF LIFE........................IT IS THE PASSAGE INTO THE NEXT ASPECT OF LIFE...

JIMMY AND I ARE INTENSELY IN LOVE, AND YET WE ARE ALSO ON AN EVEN KEEL.........................IN OUR LIFE, WE FOLLOW THE RULES, AND LIVE A GOOD CLEAN LIFE...........

AND SO, I ENJOYED MYSELF BY WASHING JIMMY'S CLOTHES TODAY!

STRANGE AS IT MAY SEEM!

JIMMY HAS BOUGHT ALL HIS CLOTHES HOME,  HE USUALLY WASHES HIS OWN CLOTHES.  HOWEVER, TODAY I DID IT!................AND I JUST LOVED DOING IT!.................SEPERATING THE WHITES FROM THE COLOR CLOTHES................HIS PANTS FROM THE SHIRTS.................WHAT A JOY TO WASH YOUR HUSBAND'S CLOTHES!.............EVERYTHING IS NOW HANGING NEATLY IN THE CLOSET FOR HIM!...........................THE SIMPLE JOYS IN LIFE!...............

THANK YOU, DEAR LORD, FOR ALLOWING ME THE SIMPLE JOYS IN LIFE!

PEACE, BALANCE AND HARMONY.............THE 3 WORDS I ALWAYS LIKE TO SAY, AND THINK, INSIDE OF ME...........

I RECEIVED THIS BEAUTIFUL LOVE LETTERIN THE MAIL TODAY,  FROM JIMMY, AND I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE IT WITH EVERYONE..................
