2nd Time's the Charming...

Pretty quick after my separation, I began dating. It wasn't the smartest thing I could do....but I just wanted to see what was out there. I posted a classified ad on the internet on a lark - and received 300 responses! Unbelievable!

Most of these guys were total losers, married, just after sex, or just plain rude. Three letters though, stood out. All seemed like good men, and I had one date with each - but one, my Prince Charming, swept me off my feet.

We IM'd for an hour or so, then got on the phone. He wanted to meet me immediately. We set a date that night at Denny's, LATE, and I left my two kids at home, safely tucked in and watched by Grandma.

We immediately hit it off. He was romantic and caring, and had his head on straight. I hugged him goodnight, and a whirlwind romance ensued. Over the next 10 months, we loved, we fought, and we loved again. In the end, I knew he was someone I could trust with my kids, and my heart.

We married on December 11th, 1999!

Wondering if I'm ever going to talk about MYSELF?
