I haven’t written in a while, so I thought that I would. James and I went to beautiful Amicalola Falls, in Dawsonville, Georgia last night to celebrate one year and exchange promise rings. It was magnificent, and very beautiful. There were about 500 steps that we had to climb, but no matter, because it was very romantic and wonderful. I wrote a poem that “marked” the occasion, which is called the mark. It is on my poems page. I thought that it was especially appropriate for the days’ celebration. I am very excited that we have been together for a year, and I am so sure that it will be a very long relationship. Here’s hoping! There is also a picture of my ring that I have included at the bottom of this post. The inscription around the ring is French for “here is my heart, guard it well.” Cool Cool!! I love it. Anyways. That is pretty much my update. Also, A funny story to end on.
As we were traveling back from Amicalola falls, which is about an hour and a half from our house, we got a phone call that everyone hates to get. It was from our alarm company, letting us know that our house alarm was going off, and whether or not they should send the police out. (ARGH!) So, we got them to send the police, and the police arrived just as we did. When we finally went inside, we were greeted at the door by none other than Sydney, our little Italian greyhound. Somehow, he broke out of his crate and set off the alarm by walking in front of the motion detectors. I guess he is living up to the character that inspired his name, Sydney Bristow!!!
*Just one additional note… this ring was ordered from DVB NY, they have a wonderful selection of great rings like this one! Check ’em out!
