You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

Best quote of the weekend

1 May, 2012 /

Dad had to lock the doors so I grabbed the three .45 guns and the bag of ammo and took it out to the car. Lester had the back door to the 4runner open so I decided instead of waiting for dad to load his truck we could just put what I had in our truck.
I hand Lester the first gun, he looks at. I hand the bag of ammo. I hand him the second gun.
“Why are we loading guns into the truck that are loaded and hammer pulled back?” he asked.

and for the first time I got to say that stupid line that people say and it makes no sense, but in this case, it TOTALLY did.

“Because that’s how my daddy roles.”
