I love my man. He’s so good to me. He amazes me continually. We’ve been together a little over two years now and I have to hand it to him. Our first date was 2 months after I finished radiation treatment for breast cancer, I had an inch of hair if that, and no breasts. I still have no breasts. And he loves me. I’ve never felt loved by a partner in my life (partly because I didn’t understand love and partly because I frequently had a poor man picker), not like this. He deserved something truly cool for Yule, our anniversary, this year.

Did I mention he’s a bass player? Sexxxxxxyyyyy.

I asked him what he might want on a guitar strap and he sent me three famous guitar logos. I’m so not all about logos but leaves and ferns and nature. But I found a way to make it work. I also asked him for a favorite quote. I was so surprised by the quote, it was quite unexpected but it had great meaning to him.

But just saying it could even make it happen.

How cool is that??  Such a deep and meaningful choice. I love this man. He’s so honest, he’s so there, he’s so kind, and oh so beautiful.

And suddenly I knew what to do. This is my first experience doing pyrography on leather but it won’t be my last. Enjoy!
