I leave today to spend a week of heaven with my bear!!!!!!!!!

I want to go for a jog to burn off some of this energy, but it's gloom and doom rain. Blah. I think I'll settle for a little stretching and ab workout after I eat some breakfast.

It feels so good to be loved like this.

I received a wonderful surprise from my boy and some co-workers!!! All behind my back, they purchased tickets and got me a week off to head to Kansas to be with my man!!!!!!!!!! I am in eternal bliss having him in my life.

I'm so angry!
My sister was visiting and while she was here, her car window was punched in and her cd's and cd player stolen. There was blood all over her seats from the fucker that did this. I called law enforcement to come and do a report for my sister for insurance purposes. While they were here, they told us that just a few houses down someone's entire car was stolen. I guess my sister is "fortunate" in that respect. Ass. This makes me so mad. Why my sister, of all people, and not me??? She doesn't deserve this. I suppose nobody DESERVES it, but I tend to believe in karma and Sarah is such a "good" person. Except for last night when I made her steal a couple dollars off the table next to us when we were leaving the restaurant because neither of us had enough money to include a tip. The people who left just before us left an outstanding tip. Yeah, I'm already going to hell, I know it, but my sister was forced to be an accomplice in my mayhem. Poor girl. Look what happens.

I'm drunk.

Not because I'm drunk, I miss my baby bear like crazzzzzzzy.

I can't wait to talk to him tomorrow and tell him how much I love him and miss him.

I wish he was the one I was snuggling into bed with tonight.

Just got back from the gym---spent nearly 2 hours there thinking about my bear and wanting to make him proud. I am so excited to talk to him tomorrow and hear all about his weekend.

My love treated me to a special package in the mail today. We purchased our tickets this week for him to stay here for 2 weeks in Sept. and for me to go there over Thanksgiving for a week. I am completely enamored by the treasure that is he and since I got back from my jog, I can only snuggle up in bed with the sweet smelling gift he sent me (it's a secret).

The best gift of all were his words. He wrote me a poem that I am so proud to share.

To be as special as you,
the world must turn to star.
In my eyes you're brilliant,
shimmering in the natural light.
Never in a life can one
have grown so lucky
to have met an angel
and captured her heart
away from heaven.

Love always,
Justin "Bear"


He is gone for the weekend at the lake with his best friend, Clint, and I look forward to the time where he can relax and "be a guy" and I can fantasize about all the ways I want to make him happy for the rest of his life. I am the luckiest woman alive to know love like this.

I've been neglecting posting here for a while. Life has had a lot of changes over the last several weeks. I finished the semester by some great miracle that I never thought I'd see! I also have fallen in love--another great miracle that I never thought I'd see. I've never in my life felt what I feel with this man. I've never in my life told a man that I love him, yet, after a mere 7 weeks and 1 day I know that he is the man I will spend the rest of my life with. I couldn't have possibly created a man more perfect for me, this is true. In this short time, he has seen me at my worst and probably has yet to see me at my best and still says he loves me! Just the other day he sent me an email that I have to share simply because I couldn't have imagined that this kind of love would ever happen to me...to Stacey...it always happens to someone else...

Here I am, sitting at the computer thinking of something grand and highly original to say to you. Last night's conversation was wonderful. I loved you so much when we hung up last night that I had to sit and think about it for awhile. I have discovered the reason why I love you so much and so readily. I really feel that life without you would have been terrible. I really do. Think about that day, April 12th it was. We've talked about this before, but I think it bares repeating here. It could have never happened. EVER! How crazy am I to continue thinking about it? Well, I'll tell you. Simply put, having you in my life has enriched me so much. I find that I am interested in new things that I would have never thought to look into if it wasn't for you. Things like the book "Tuesdays with Morrie" for example. That book touched me in so many ways and
I feel so much closer to you for having received it from you and read it. It truly touched me and I love you for that. This idea of being touched to my very soul is what makes me love you. You said the other night that you wondered why I loved you sometimes. Well, that's it. Right there, plain as day. I love you because you are full of meaning. Intricate things that make you who you are. I've come to appriciate the ways in which you touch me by letting me see inside you. You are so open and honest with me that I cannot believe that anyone could be more so. You are an enlightening woman, Stacey Steinkopf, and I would be so honored to have you in my life for the
rest of it. To that end, I would also like to say to you that I have never had anything resembling what we have with any other girl. You are by far the greatest treasure that I have ever found in this world and I thank God everyday that I wake up and know you are somewhere in my life. That somewhere is at the head of it. Stacey, as many times as I say this you're probably tired of hearing it (or not, which is good too) but you are truly the most lovely woman in my eyes. Everything you are is wonderful to me. Each time we talk it's as if I have discovered something wonderful that's only for me. I feel special just to be able to say "Stacey Steinkopf? Yeah, I know her. She's the best." It will probably embarass you to hear that last statement, but humility is one thing that makes you the woman you are. You are never cocky, you give credit
where it's due, and you find time to be a help to others. You make me so proud in everything you do that I just have to say it a million times a day and it still doesn't feel like enough. Stacey, I find something in you that I just cannot get over. It's many things really, but they are all you. Every part of you is special and I love you for letting me into your world and showing me that love truly exists in this reality. Thank you so much for knowing me and wanting to have me in your life. It's a very wonderful experience that I hope will never end.


I love you baby.

Justin


To have this love, I am the one who is truly blessed. May God grant you all the gift of feeling like this some day.
