A Greater Appreciation


It’s been nice having Mouse back.  Although I had re-accustomed myself to a semi-single life and had fallen into my own routines, I’ve gladly given that up to have him here.  Forfeiting my alone time is a small price to pay for his presence.  It’s comforting to have him home when I get home from work, to be able to share a glass of wine and chat about our days.  It’s doubly nice to have someone to cook for, making mealtime more social than functional, giving me an excuse to experiment and play in the kitchen.  (My waistline may be suffering, but at least we’re eating well!)  My days off work are even more pleasurable, now that he’s back to accompany me on our Aussie adventures.  Having him here has reinvigorated me and led me to a deeper appreciation for our life.  We work well together and have carved out a great existence for ourselves.  I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
