 Torn...

My lady is suffering somewhat because we decided that since we are moving May 1, we couldn't go to Ottawa this Easter.
Ottawa is about a 5 plus hour drive from us in London.
Today is the family dinner at her mothers with her brother, and children there as well.
My ladies children are all grown up and on their own so its not like they are little kids but still the " mother " in her wants to be with them on holidays like these.
I try to understand the way she feels, but its hard for me because I have no family of my own .
We try to get to Ottawa several times a year and always for christmas.
Last year, at thanksgiving, two of her children borrowed a van and came here for three days.
It was a great three days .
They arrived very early saturday morning after her daughter picked up her brother friday night from work.
I spent the nite " grooming  " my world famous chili, as I knew they would be hungry.
Thankgiving day was just great having them here because it meant so much to my lady.
As time goes on, we do find it somewhat difficult to drive the drive  in the winter.
Bus and train fares are through the roof so we don't have much choice.
So this year, we dine alone, just the two of us and I just know, where her heart will be for part of the day at least.
I never really had a family, but I do feel her hurt sometimes.
I really don't know why I'm writting this,  guess I'm hoping it will make me feel better. There is nothing I can do about this one.
Those that are going to spend your Easter with your families, milk those moments for all their worth.
 Happy Easter All, May all your eggs be soft boiled.

till I blog at you all again, take care of yourselves and each other...templar
