A thread dedicated to my wife, DU'er AutumnMist - she could use some good vibes

[The Straight Story]

Hun,
You are still that beautiful red head I found 9 years ago. I know you are sick now with Parkinson's, and the last few days have been hell. I know you feel worthless at times, as you lay in bed and me taking care of you. I know you have good days where you can function, and bad days/months where I take care of you. And I know how all that makes you feel.

But I am in this for the long haul. For the remainder of the days I have been given here on this earth.

Tonight I sat around trying to find songs that I could share with you that tell you how I feel. Not just 'our' songs we based our dreams on 9 years ago, but how I feel now. Enjoy my love.

Here they are:

I'll go on loving you:

I think about your soft green eyes, your pretty red hair, that beautiful face that captured my heart the day we met at Enron. You are still a beautiful woman, many men have asked me how I ended up with such a pretty woman. I still don't know. You are pretty inside and out - and even though you don't feel you are because you are sick, I can assure you hun that you are.

Remember when (by the same artist):

This song reminds me of our time in Ohio, our fresh start. It also reminds me of our life in Circleville, when our little girl was learning to walk, how happy we were there.

When you say nothing at all:

I don't know what else to add to this. It just says it for me.

Secret Garden:

You let me in, when so many never were allowed in. We shared it, like we shared our lives.

This reminds me of the hurt others have caused you, and when I saw your face for the first time 9 years ago next month.

Where the green grass grows (Our Song)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhUhGvqyu6c
Not sure about this video, but I know this has been our song since we met. I want to live where the green grass grows with you.

From a Distance

How others see our lives, it all looks ok from a distance. It is what we hoped for.

And finally (so I can keep it short)
Iris
How I feel about you babe:

you've got to hear from Charlie Brown
Unfortunately youtube does not have a proper clip.
This is the best I could find among all the ni&&a-Charlie Brown Kwanzaa clips. Charlie Brown on a date with the other red-head talking about love
