Update on me... I miss you all
« on: April 23, 2009, 07:57:46 am »
Dearest friends,

It has been a while since I posted on here.
But that doesn't mean my thoughts and heart haven't been with you all, believe me.

I am now working at a chiropractics office 4 days a week, have started the divorce of my legal husband and also started to pay of the banks for my bankruptcy.
I guess this will take 2 more years.
Healthwise I am fine.

Early January I met this wonderful Polish man online .
We chatted for days in a row until he found out I was positive... via a site for Aids Memorial Candlelighting... yes...nothing stays hidden on the net.
He still wanted to meet and we went back and forth for a while to get to know each other, keeping our long sessions on MSN every day we were apart.
Symon has now been living with me since almost two months and we are doing great.
He is in his twenties, but enjoys the company of an older man ( riper and wiser I hope, but still crazy after all these years)He  is studying Dutch and working as a painter. I am struggling to learn Polish .... but no, the bed is not helping me in that job.

Anyway, I am living it a day at the time and I don't care what people think about our age difference. We have a lot of fun and it seems as if we really match.....

I am happy and I wanted to let you know I am doing really fine.

Sending you all my love...

Good to hear from you, Hermie, and that you are doing well with dealing with various life continues to throw at you.

Amazing the things we can survive and surmount in this life.

As for your new guy, Symon, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! Age difference? CONNECTING and enjoying each other is what matters.

Stay well.

Jody's been looking for you.

I can't think of a better reason to go AWOL.  A Polish Painter.  Sounds good to me.

You guys are great.
I showed Szymon the posts... I told him that you all knew how harsh life can be ( and has been for many of us) and how unselfishly you all wished  ME THE BEST.

Yes Joe, we have this life and we better live it, damned.

Rick and Tom... I shed a tear reading your request. yes, yes yes;.. please make sure to send me pics of Hermie the dog  and his family...

It feels very supportive to read your kind words. Believe me. I just want some happiness.. nothing big

oh .. here comes Szymon, reading what I wrote and wanted to add this :

"We love you all (Szymon)"

Unfortunately I cannot post a pic of him.Ffor obvious reasons... but he is very cute and very warmhearted and tender.

I am giving you all a warm hug...

Love you

Hermie

Hermie---

As the song says, "age ain't nothing but a number". You go, you stud. It seems like older is now in fashion or younger depending on where you're standing. As long as he makes you happy that is all that matters...Now that you are working and taking care of your man, I hope it won't be a long silence before we hear from you again.....Much love... :-*
