It's Saturday, March 1, and the snow is coming down in torrents. We've already had 6 inches with 3 more predicted. Kay has been out shoveling Rosey's little igloo tunnel so he can get out to do his "business". I can hear the sidewalk Bobcat plows in the distance.
Day before yesterday our Comcast email decided to let us down and it had to have been the most frustrating experience. Fortunately we had AOL as a back-up but it's not the same and I look forward to having Comcast back.
Since our Civil Union, Kay and I have enjoyed a feeling of new respect - not only for each other that we took this momentous step at our ages - but because we sense our friends and neighbors looking at us with new eyes. Is this a subliminal message that's being sent our way telling us we've "arrived"; or are we reading things into folks' reaction to us that isn't really there?
We've always been very subtle about our love for each other - not blatant at all. The days of flamboyance for those in gay relationships is hopefully a thing of the past. It is important for those in a domestic partnership to respect as well as love each other and to have the respect and genuine caring of their peers, friends and community.
Our book, "Sisters by Heart", is a prime example of an alternative lifestyle. Click on the excerpt of Chapter One on our website to see what I mean.
