• One Year

  Today is Adam’s and my one year anniversary.

  I woke up a vase full of beautiful yellow daffodils, pink daisies, orange carnations, and purple lilacs.  In a few hours he will come and pick me up and take me to an amazing sushi restaurant – something way out of his budget that he’s been saving for weeks.

  Otherwise today feels like any other Sunday.  I woke up late, had an interview, and now I’m struggling my way through an engineering assignment with a cup of now-cold coffee next to me.  Outside the sky is a uniform gray-blue, the magpies are chattering, and I can just barely see the painted G on South Table Mountain.  I feel calm.  As I told my counselor Friday during our session, this is the first time I can ever remember not having something to talk about.

  I’m in love.  I’m happy.

   

  Life’s good.
