Friday Letters: edited so I’m not confusing people!
Dear last day single Joey (2 years ago)~
You were spot on when you wrote this in an old journal:
*I sneak out into the garage to grab a drink. Quiet and familiar, a break from the chaos. Heat radiates from the recently stilled engine of Mom’s Expedition as it naps, exhausted from it’s journeys to and from the airport. I lean against it and feel it warm my skin while my heart overflows. I take a deep breath, crack open the Coke can and open the door to the house. I take in the laughter and loud voices; my family. I share blood with some but love with all. I take in the moment as I realize it’s one of the last I’ll have living in this house. There’s a wedding tomorrow, and it will change my life and home forever.
Sincerely,
Joey, from your new life in your new home (present day)
*disclaimer: this was written in a journal just before I got married. We’ve been married for 2 years now, I was just happily reflecting. Sorry for the confusion 🙂
