Different...

This phase of our life is a little different than the past.

David and I have time together. We spend most nights hanging out, as opposed to most nights in different states.
We are not merely scraping by.  We do not have to wait to get groceries until the paycheck comes through at midnight.
I am not a part of the walking dead.  I actually have time to see my family and friends. I have time to just sit and talk.

After surviving for so many years, we are finally living. It is a new feeling. It is hard to get used to. I don't quite trust it.  But I am trying to.  We are taking leaps of faith.  As all other situations prior to this, I am sure I will get used to it.  I am sure this "pinch me, am I dreaming?" feeling will probably come to an end. I hope it lasts a while.
