FergusonK's journal - Goodbye Java Jewel.

[Ferguson K]

HEY guys.

Sorry I’ve been MIA for the last few months.

I’ll update as best as I can when I get off of work.

It’s been a roller coaster here and I’ve had a rough year.

Love y’all.

Here’s a chicken.

My fall eggs.

And.... a lion.

Thanks for popping in Kate, I was thinking about you just yesterday. Hopefully things are going OK now, or at least the roller coaster is coming to a stop.

I think you best tell that one chicken to stop putting her beak in electrical outlets.

And...a lion - like it's no big deal, lol! Good to see ya!

I took a selfie with that lion.

His name is Ashur.

Looks like you're growling and the lion is at peace. Good to hear from you. Hope it all settles out for you.

 

[Bruce]

Lovely eyes you have there Kate. I think that lion is pondering how to get out of the enclosure.

The last few months have truly been a roller coaster. I don't even know where to begin. It's a lot to put into one or two little paragraphs but I'll do the best I can.

Over the summer I lost my mare Maya, which I think I posted about, who I had owned for 10 or so years.

Shortly after that I lost Beau and Blue.

Then my grandfather.

It all came quickly and in a fury. It was like my life was floating in a whirlpool of dread.

John and I separated. It's a long story, one I don't want to publicly air. Let's just leave it at my marriage wasn't what it looked like and I wasn't happy. @samssimonsays has been a dear friend through everything.

A few months ago my childhood / highschool sweetheart, the love of my life, and the (man) I have compared every relationship I've ever been in to came back into my life. He and I picked up exactly where we left off and I just have to say that in my adult life I have never been happier.

I've been 'freed' from the things that held me back. I have had moments of clarity. He has been a great big help, and has two young boys of his own. Which has fulfilled my lifelong dream of being a mother. I now have two young boys to love and nurture like my own that aren't my nephews (Although I do love them dearly, just like they are my own as you all know.)

I will refer to these boys as R (5) and A (1, almost 2.) Out of respect for Robert I will not post their names on a public forum.

One of my dogs, Huckleberry, was hit by a car last month. He has had one surgery and will be going back for another after the first of the year. His pelvis was shattered as were many other bones in his body. The vet wasn't sure how he was even still alive, and beyond that, walking. As of today he is not only walking but he is HOME!!! He was free to walk around his own yard, go pee, go poop, smell things. It was phenomenal.

I think that just about sums everything up.

I tried to keep it short and sweet. Straight to the point.

Thank you all for understanding I do not want to talk about my divorce or the man involved. Thank you for being supportive of my new adventure in life. Thank you ahead of time, because I'm really busy these days and I may miss the opportunity to tell you all here... Love you guys.

That's all the explanation necessary. A storm descended upon you and the clouds are clearing away now. Time for a little sunshine in your life. Sorry about your grandfather. Losing a grandparent is the end of your childhood. Even though you are an adult, with grand parents, you are always their little girl. Big hugs.

Nothing more needs to be said than that and I am truly happy for you.
