Taking Off and Landing

My husband's military career is ending, while my writing career appears to be on a climb. It's a funny juxtaposition, he and I, sitting in our shared office lit with the glow of our respective computers. He is looking for a civilian job. I am looking for an agent. There in the late and the early hours, we share our yes's and no's and maybe's .. the possible and the impossible .. and most importantly, the hoped for.

It's an adventure. That much is certain. About a month from now we'll have a ceremony with plaques and barbecue and important people in sharp blue uniforms with lots of shiny dangly things. And then we'll be free to pursue Act II of our lives together.

Off we go .. into the wild blue yonder!
