thankfulness

What am I thankful for today?

How about having been married to someone for 17 years, someone who remains a good friend today? We met in college, were friends for years, dated, split up, got back together, had a long and mostly happy married life, and divorced when it seemed like the best thing for both of us, and went back to being good friends, where we remain (and I hope always will). We had some excellent adventures, loved each other, helped each other through some adversities, fostered each other's growth as human beings, and still respect each other, care about each other, and have good times. We've even added friends to each other's lives through the people we've dated since then--her wife, [livejournal.com profile] shy_kat, has become a dear friend of mine, and the two of them are good friends with [livejournal.com profile] poliscidiva, even though she and I didn't end up together.

Today I'm thankful for Christian Howlett. :-)

I'm thankful for Christian Howlett too! (thanks for breaking her in for me--made the training much easier )

Wow, that's very nice of you. I'm thankful for all the good times we had together and for our enduring friendship---long may it continue!
