Without details, just let me say this medical situation I'm going through with this ol' body is getting me down some days. In the past 2 months I've had 2 "meltdowns." It is not a life threatening problem, just a frustrating condition that I had no clue could happen to a body. A very frustrating problem.
And my hubby is the best in the world, bar none.
One night I was sitting in the family room while he was in his office/computer room. I just silently began to weep out of control. He came in, saw me, and tried to console me, stroking my arm and trying soothing words. I told him I just couldn't talk at the moment. He kept trying to find out what the problem was. I just couldn't and didn't want to talk. (Trust me, I am not pretty when I cry. Some women are darling. Me? I'm pretty darn pathetic looking!) Now, we women know that sometimes we just need to cry/meltdown and let it go. That was one of those nights. But he kept stroking my arms, putting his arms around me and trying his best to figure out what was going on. I just couldn't talk about it. Really. I just needed to cry and get the emotions/frustrations out. I was inconsolable.
Then one night I was sitting in my chair and had my hand over my eyes while reading. I'm an avid reader and do that more than anything right now, just want to be taken out of my world into the world of spies, espionage and thrillers. ;-) He came in and started stroking my arm and asked if I was okay. I believe he thought I was melting down again, but I wasn't. Just had my hand on my forehead while reading. He was very solicitous that night.
Then yesterday I told him I was going to grocery shop alone and would be back. On the way to the store I felt like sobbing and almost started but held back because—heaven forbid—I didn't want my mascara running down my cheeks! I actually held it together better with just a tiny breakdown last night while he was busy doing something else.
So, this morning at breakfast, I explained to him I'm fine and that sometimes I just need to cry to get the frustrations and emotions out. My guy of 52 years is truly my soul mate. He knows me better than any other person on earth. He treats me like a queen. I love him beyond reason and am so glad he's my husband.
Ooooh, I'll get through this and will be fine...I hope. But without him I'd be a wreck most of the time. ;-)

Love froufrou!
This room just grabbed me with those outdoor type chairs mixed with that lovely flowered sofa.
Another lovely vignette.
Can you imagine stationery this gorgeous?!
Don't know where it is but looks Bavarian. What beautiful architecture and rowing boats.
Sweetly decorated little hearts to hang anywhere you want.
A miniature pink coat.
These chairs remind me of Coco Chanel suits.
You wouldn't catch me standing outside a lighthouse with all those waves. I'd be cowering—and screaming—inside! WOW!!!
The prettiest cookies I've ever seen.
A sweet dining area with a fantastic view.
A small sachet.
A red, white and blue living room.
Isn't this adorable?
Another "tent" for an intimate occasion, which you could easily do.

Azaleas and rhododendrons contain a toxin that can be fatal to humans. So be careful having them around children.
