Almost four years ago, I fell in love for the first time--twenty-five years too late--and began an affair. Over the years, Kevin and I have met several times a week and email several times a day. I have kept almost all of the emails that I sent to him and that he sent to me. Along the way, there has been laughter and tenderness and heat...and heartache.

This blog is the posting of our daily emails. It chronicles the lives of two people over a four year period so far, and tells the story of our burgeoning love against the backdrop of New York City.

The names and addresses have been changed to protect the innocent; the rest is 100% real.

The daily update structure helps keep the blog as authentic as possible as well as living up to its title. It also strives to provide the reader with the kind of pleasure that a soap opera offers--a daily dose of voyeuristic fun.

Please begin at the beginning, otherwise, little will make sense.

Enjoy.

At Ease

Hey, if there is a choice between me and the children's karate class? There shouldn't even be a thought! You can teach a class another time. Life is too short. But I can't promise 100% because you never know what might happen between now and then. I will certainly do my best. I miss you.

Good morning my love:

How are you today? Are you getting lots of time to play music and exercise? I'm having a very busy time visiting family. Today, is going to be another people packed day. It's fun, but I don't get a lot of rest.

It's always overcast in this town! I remember it from when I lived here for about two years. NY is so much sunnier.

I love you my Kevin.

Good morning HFG,

I am off for a run now.  It is overcast here too, but it will clear up about noon I am sure.  I have had a lot of time for practice and exercise.  Have a great time with family.

We have a friend coming over later for dinner.  We are going to bbq.  It should be nice.

I love you too,

SYB.
