Hello new old friend

One of the greatest gifts I've ever been given was a nugget ice maker from my kids that they all pitched in to purchase. I use pitched in loosely because I know that the eldest child drove the idea and paid the bulk of the cost but everyone contributed. That thing lasted almost five years until finally giving out after I took it to work and it was in almost constant weekday use for more than a year. Not wanting to accumulate yet another possession… I chose to not replace that tragic loss but it did not calm my love of that particular ice.

So I’ve been getting my fix from various establishments that sell said same. Sonic, Raising Caines, Thorntons, etc. The problem there is every one of those comes attached to that deliciously addictive poison that I can’t get enough of… As I am once again tapering back on the Diet Coke I needed another way to satisfy my sexual frustration ice addiction. So I bit the bullet and procured another amazing countertop solution.

The relationship is new but it feels very familiar. And speaking of things seeming comfortable and a good fit, there has been another development. I purposely buried the lead on this one so the casual reader will just mark this post as unfunny when they get to the picture and move on… I have started talking to someone lately that has me rethinking my entire previous stance on relationships. It’s still early days but this feels different. If you are one of my real life female advisors resist the urge to reach out and pepper me with questions because I have no answers to give just yet. The only reason I’m writing about it now is because it’s that stage where I can think of little else. And that is all I’m going to write about that.

Have a great week!
