A little over a year ago I wrote Part 1 if this story. Spoiler alert. It didn’t end well. But I did end the post on a hopeful note because life was good back then:

“But life goes on. Change happens. New relationships are built. Perhaps part 2 of this story has a more evolved outcome”

• After four years alone I met someone.
  • She said she loved me until she didn’t. Four years later.
• We traveled the world, she turned me on to Italy and Eastern European River cruises, Took me to Hilton Head, Rhode Island, North Florida. Travel ready.
  • Her next European trip is already booked with her sister.
• She introduced me to all her family and friends and made me feel at home and part of it all.
  • I have a reservation for one for Thanksgiving dinner at a local restaurant.
• Came back to Tejas to visit the kids, grandbabies, family & friends.
  • Became insanely homesick and just want to curl up in my own bed.

But life goes on. Change happens. New activities replace others. Perhaps Part 3 of this story will have a more evolved outcome.
