The Countdown Begins

David and I are finally going to meet again, after 30 years, on August 6th.

Between us, we have 2000 miles and seven children.

Brace Face

OK, If Cher can get braces at 50, so can I.

Today, Dr. Davirro put on the upper braces.

Now I have heard how much these things can hurt, so I went home and waited, and waited, and waited......nothing.

I called Dr. D's office and said..."are you sure these are tight enough, I don't feel anything". I am sure they thought I was certifiably insane at this point.

Only 18 months to go.....

That First Call

I am sure you can imagine that first phone call from him.
He lives in Wisconsin now.

He sounds the same, and I can barely breathe.

The Email

An email dated April 15th, 2007 arrives in my mailbox today June 15th. It has been stuck in the "spam" section of my sister's mailbox and she has forwarded it to me today.

It was sent via Classmates.com and reads like this:

Tracy, it has been a long time and I would like to hear from you. David.

Can you say 30 years and my high school sweetheart?

Heart be still.
