P.S. Herb And I Are Taking Care Of The Garden Together Now, And He Managed To Fix The Computer! Like

P.S. Herb and I are taking care of the garden together now, and he managed to fix the computer!  Like I said, I feel safer having him here.  I think things are taking a turn for the better. 

Dear Mom and Dad,

Thanks for the reception photos.  I hadn’t seen the one of Gilbert and Herb outside. It was really good to see you guys.  I’m so glad you got to come, and I hope we can visit again soon.  Maybe Herb and I can come up to Riverblossom Hills to visit you guys next time. 

I have a snow day from work today (the perks of working in education), so I’m going to open my game and play the Tinkers.  (I told myself I’d do that this past Friday when we had a snow day, but ended up going back to bed instead. But today I mean it.)

Just so y’all know - I am visiting my parents for the holidays and only have my iPad to check tumblr, etc. I’ve been replying to replies on my post today, but a real reply post will have to wait until I get home to my desktop.

Herb held me close and told me that he loves me.  We’ve said it a couple times now, but this time was the first time it felt like it really meant something.  After he let me go, he got down on one knee and proposed!  He said he wanted to keep me safe and keep me company, and that he wants to help me make the business and garden thrive.  

I said yes, of course! We’re going to get married right before winter.  I’ll send you guys an official invitation soon.  In the meantime, Herb is moving in with me. (He lived in a crappy apartment, and I have so much room, so why not?) 

I’m so happy! I love him so much, and I know you’ll like him. I already feel safer having him around. 

Love,

Florence

Dear Diary,

It’s been a while since I’ve written, but I have loads of news to share now!  Herb and I are engaged!  I wrote Mom and Dad about it and they came down from Riverblossom Hills to meet him!
