Happy.

This week at work, a coworker asked me "Why are you so happy? What's with you?"

And you know what...I am happy. I feel satisfied and sated. I feel full and content. And it feels good.

Last night was low key. Dinner for TDP at Chick Fil A - his choice - Shakes at Sonic, just messing around, laughing and watching Ghostbusters fan films on youtube. Sounds incredibly nerdy, doesn't it? And I dig it. I dig just hanging out, talking, laughing, sharing, relaxing. I love that it's not some big production with him. I love that I can be my full self. And he likes it. He likes my full self.

Last night, I asked him if he was in a hurry for anything and he said no. We are not barreling toward the inevitable fate of marriage or some big serious thing. There's time. I am not a patient woman, but for now, I feel good to just enjoy the time we have together when we can have it. Time to laugh and share life.

My heart is happy today. Maybe I have found what I've been hoping for.
