Message To Self

Dear Self:

Next time I start a relationship with someone (if and when) make sure that individual does not believe that 1 (one) argument constitutes the end of that said relationship.  I can't even believe I didn't think to check that out before hand!  Damn!  What was I thinking. I am so out of practice in today's dating world.  We had been together 9 months already! That's crazy. Of all the things that could have gone wrong by throwing a city girl onto the Canadian prairie for a winter (those stories yet to come) the only catastrophe was my relationship.  I guess that solves the problem I thought I faced of changing the title of my blog.  There is always a bright side isn't there...I remain "Single White Female American Migrant Farm Worker." Sam is very special.  She always will be.  And I must say meeting her family and having gotten to spend time with them has deeply enriched my life.

Also, no more "nice!"  I am not nice.   If I ever was nice, I am nice no more.  In fact, I am a mean, cruel, abusive, angry, person who just happens to be too sensitive, menopausal, perhaps a  bit too isolated at the moment (R-E-D-R-U-M), and an all round smorgasbord! I'm just saying, "look out."  You've been warned.   I used to get so angry (see, I'm angry right there) with Dwayne when he would say, "woman put the I-R- in RATIONAL.  Dwayne, as hard as it is for me to say.....you are so right.  But you already knew that.

It is only a matter of time now and "the boys" will begin their trek home to Canada. Admit it ladies...you're going to miss them terribly, but you're ready for them to leave, aren't you? (Tee Hee) They are very hard to keep up with sometimes.  Down right exhausting!  From my first spring here until the ending of my first winter I have decided that I wish to continue my blog as it serves as such an outlet for me during such an uncertain time in my life.  Sometimes it just helps to write it down.  And if you wish to follow I welcome you and always encourage tips, advise, a good joke,  recipes...whatever you feel comfortable with.

Peace and Hugs      (Pictures to follow next time)
