A letter from Apr 13th, 2021

Dear FutureMe, Top of the day/evening to you! I hope you are sitting enjoying a favorite beverage listening to some sublime french background music and feeling the contentment of a life well lived, splendidly planned in the company of the love of your life. I have come full circle with my goals. In some amazing unforeseeable leap of faith I have reached the golden years of my life in the fashion I always dreamed of. I have met and fallen deeply in love with the man of my dreams, really and truly. He is the handsome MY EGO craved, the sweet friend MY SOUL yearned for, the **** crazy bad boy MY BAD GIRL needed, and yet the PERFECT balance a power couple has to have, and we do!! I am deeply grateful and truly blessed. I have come to accept with conviction that I will be leaving this place I have called home for the last 35 years. I have no regrets. The bittersweet nostalgia I will take with me are the time honored badges of my wonderful life. I will miss many things, the closness of my siblings, close friends I know I wont see again, and my children most of all, but as they left the nest in pursuit of their dreams so must I. My hope is that they visit often and perhaps move close! I am honestly looking forward to retiring. I want to be the best Mrs. Galbert I can be. I want to play in this new world with all our toys, where we can come and go when we please, create moments others dream of! As I read this I hope I am leaning on my huge sleek granite center island/stainless steel applianced kitchen, flanked with multiple built-ins and a huge pantry.... wondering what I can create, with my wonderful husband, for dinner on this beautiful evening as we watch the sunset against the beautiful red rock view from anywhere in our beautiful, amazing home...god I love my life! Thank you universe I am humbly and utterly grateful!
