"A Dog's Purpose"


Mel,

Your apology is accepted.

I knew you were in great pain at the time,
but I didn't know until the other day,
that they had broken your leg.

So, it happened in that fight with Shane
over your dog.......

I think they broke my arm.

I didn't know until now,
that you had a special connection with that dog.
That's how I feel about Shari, Josie's dog.
                                                 
I remembered a while back,
that in the "family meetings",
I was told to hold the leash connected to a brown dog,
as it was standing up,
while they dosed it with, what I now realize were x-rays,
from a circular drum-like piece of equipment
suspended from above it's back
(like was done to holocaust victims
in Nazi experiments, to sterilize women).

They killed your dog, didn't they.......

I loved all the animals and people there
(except the abusers),
and my heart broke whenever they died.
But, I couldn't say anything.

I love you,
Sondra

What do you get out of it?


Mel,

So, what would you get out of having a relationship with me?

Some of those things would include -
Home Cooked Meals -
I finished writing up my basic cooking skills/recipe book
around the beginning of this year,
and I'm keen to put it into practice,
but I need you,
to supply the house (our home), and,
pay for the kitchen equipment (which I would like to choose).
Affection for You - 
Hugs, and kisses for you (on the cheek, in public).
Discussions -
Talking over a cuppa or a meal, about whatever  ideas we have.
We need to agree first on something, before we go ahead with it.
Helping You with Your Issues -
Be they personal, with the children and family etc, or work.
Household Management -
Managing the household,
from budgeting, keeping the house clean, clothes washed and garden tidy.
I think that mowing large expanses of lawn may be your area of expertise,
though I love using my hand mower for small areas.
Friends and Family Coming to Visit - 
I think we need to be a bit careful about who we allow to come over.
We need to be in agreement, before we invite anyone over.
Our home/s need to be safe sanctuaries,
for the two of us, and whoever we invite over.
Workmates Coming Over -
I think that get-togethers with workmates,
need to be done at other venues, not in our home.
Company in Bed -
Snuggling up together in bed (mostly at night).
Real Sex -
Having real sex together, only you and me.

* This is not a deal
There are no "deals" in relationships.

Loving you,          
Sondra

Film - "Beauty and the Beast" (2017)



I went to see this film on the weekend  :)

It's the most beautifully crafted, engaging (being a musical), all-round film,
in the true Hollywood tradition, that I've ever seen !!
Not that I've seen everything.

And is Oscar worthy, in my opinion !

Magical, magical, magical

Smoking

Mel,

I'm not sure where you are exactly
with your smoking at the moment,
but if you want to be with me,
then I would be asking you these things -

Not to smoke in the car at all.

Not to smoke tailor-mades in the house.
Outside would be ok.

Inside the house, I would be ok,
                                                         if you smoked a cigar occasionally.

                                                         Ideally, there should be no smoking at all.

                                                         I love you,
                                                         Sondra
