"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

No Drunkenness

Mel,

If you want to be with me,
then there can be no drunkenness.

Ideally,
there should be no alcohol.

I'm not sure where you are exactly with this at the moment,
but, I believe you when you say that you've been sober
for the last 10 years.
So, I hope that you can continue to be so  :)

                                                 I admire and love you, for making the effort to turn that around.

                                                 *Very Big Hugs*,
                                                 Sondra

No Gambling

Mel,

If you want to be with me,
there can be no gambling.

Games are fine.

But, games should just be for learning.

Games should be an environment
where you can fail and be safe,
with no consequences,
and learn from the mistakes.

Betting imposes a consequence,
                                                                which introduces punishment,
                                                                for mistakes.

                                                                There should be no punishment.

                                                                Because, it's ok to make mistakes.
