yup,i said "yes" to the engagement. Fed-Ex delivered the goods. then he decided that he wanted me to go look at rings and just hold on to the one he sent. so, i sent pics and info and this morning he said he wanted to "go all out".......... i'm engaged to the man who has been such a constant in my life.....

we're meeting at Tiffany's in Dallas. i'm engaged to the man who has been such a constant in my life..... i am absolutely and totally floored. his job is taking him to a city that is about 80 miles from where i'm moving.

no wedding in the near future. i won't committ to that. my plate overfloweth right now. he's i'm engaged to the man who has been such a constant in my life..... with it.

this man has been in my life 5 years and i guess it was love at first sight. we met online, literary message board, then went to Mexico for a vacation.....stayed in different casitas. we've had one major tiff and i dated for awhile. other than that, we've been happy as clams........if there ever is a wedding, it will be on a beach, barefoot and no one but us.....he's been making plans for it for the last year. we'll see. he makes me laugh more than any man that i've known. i mean belly laughs........ribs sore the next day laughs. and he's quite a bit younger than i. his mom is 9 years older than me. i'm engaged to the man who has been such a constant in my life.....

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopat/ethel/colleen (his name for me)

OOOwww shall we call this : "How Pat Got Her Groove Back"?
(In case you haven't seen it, "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" is a really hot movie about an older woman/younger man duo. Angela Basset and Tylor Diggs (if my memory serves).

I am happy for you and he. Goodest Luck.
