Nothing fancy.  Just determined to "start" my blog officially today, May 1, 2012.  It's been a full year since I've started and posted anything, and I'm not happy with those results.  It's been a long long long year!!!!!  So today, on my 13th wedding anniversary, I am re-starting this blog, and will write each and every day about what this year of marriage and life will hold.  Since 13 is an unlucky number, I want to make it my "luckiest" marriage year, and change the thinking on that number!  Plus, it seems that after you've been married for awhile, around these early teen years of marriage, comfort has set in, and mid-life for some of us as well.  So, I'm interested to see for myself how all of this plays into the daily life of the 13th year of marriage.  I know I've been having some really strange mid-life emotions and thoughts for the the whole past year, but I was too embarrassed to let those thoughts out!  I thought I was the only one!  But apparently, I'm not, and I have lots to express and share and let's see how many of us out there are happily married, love our husbands, but still have those "yearning for desire and passion" filled men in our lives, return to our lives, even though they're supposedly still sitting there on the couch.  Maybe if you poke him a few times with a stick he will move!

Well, I've started because I promised myself I would -- and this is not all I intended for the first day, BUT, I started, and that is a milestone in itself, even if very tiny.

I hope to make this entertaining, thought provoking, and as real and honest about my feelings and emotions as I can muster to write about without fear of anyone reading them.  After all, I cannot possibly be the only woman on the face of the earth who thinks and feels the way I do.  We all need someone to relate to proving we're normal.

On that note -- to all a good night!  And tomorrow is another day!
