Indulgences

Could you imagine waking up next to me every morning?  In a warm bed with fluffy pillows and soft sheets, and a sea of blankets to cuddle and play in?  You already know my favorite way to spend mornings.  Weekends could start lazy, waking up when the sunlight starts to peek through the blinds with slow movements and affections, and would escalate.  Then coffee, breakfast, shower, maybe round two some mornings depending on what’s on the schedule for the day.  But that sounds like a perfect weekend to me.  And home base might be up here in this little part of the world, but we could wake up anywhere, and it would be perfect.

And we could have a home, maybe single story? Do those even exist out here?  I’m not sure… but I know there would be lots of trees out back and it would be pretty.  There could be a fireplace, and a large kitchen with two ovens, and it would smell like espresso and cinnamon, it’ll be cozy.  And there’d be a room full of books, maybe one for crafts and insane projects, maybe gaming? Pfft, systems would just take over the main room, I mean it is us after all.  Here’s a big one, we’ll finally figure out how to manage a work life blance.  Maybe we have a cute dog, maybe two.  They’d have a lot of room anyway.  And mom would have her own suite on the other side of the house so she’d still be there but we’d still have privacy.  I know she’ll be busy making kimchi and other banchan with her group of friends.  Maybe someday we have a couple kids.  They might be blood, they might be adopted, but they will be loved the same regardless.  And they will travel the world with us.  I mean winters here are kind of crazy, we could go to Hawaii or Maldives in December.  We’d have to visit family landmarks in Japan and Korea.  We’ll go everywhere, we kind of have to since it’s necessary to reach one of my goals.  I don’t think anyone would mind.  I don’t think I’m asking for too much from this world, I just want to wake up next to the love of my life every morning, and I want to build a life together.
