Just to leave a token of being alive and well...
Yes, on Friday, June 17 by 19:30 I got home with our private driver (in our own car) from the Savannah Airport.
I'd flown in at JFK New York on Delta Airlines 49, earlier and then the Delta flight to Savannah, Georgia.
Pieter was happy and so was I!
And of course our kitties...
This sweet note from my Pieter awaited me:
LL—Lieve Lieverd or Dear Sweetheart in English...
Together with these Red Roses... neatly arranged in our Wedgwood Cream Color on Cream Color vase.
Detail...
Two days later I'd arranged them in a different Wedgwood Cream Color on Cream Color compote bowl.
Of course teamed up with our rose linen table cloth...
More about my trip later.
This was the 2nd time that Pieter and I have been separated for some 3 weeks...
When he went in March/April, 1987 to China for People to People Citizen Ambassador Program.
Also then, I went solo to Limburg for being with family and friends.

You and Pieter are just the sweetest couple! I love the roses with the rose tablecloth. I’m glad you are back home safely and look forward hearing all about your trip.
ReplyDeleteDearest Debby,
DeleteThank you and it was special for seeing each other again!
Roses have always been my favorite flower in many forms, for wearing or for decorating.
Hugs,
Mariette
Such a sweet gesture from Pieter!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time together.
Happy Tuesday, my dear friend.
((hugs and blessings)
Dearest Veronica,
DeleteIt sure was a sweet gesture and much appreciated!
A lot of work for catching up but I'll manage.
Hugs,
Mariette

Abbracci,

What a lovely welcome from Pieter. I'm sure it felt good to sleep in your own bed again!
ReplyDeleteDearest Kim,
DeleteOh, what a feeling indeed and the kitties were all over me; claiming me back.
Dido did scratch my eyelid on Monday morning as he tried to wedge himself between his Papi and Mami... So I now wear a bandaid!
Hugs,
Mariette
ReplyDeleteWelcome home. It's nice to be home again. Praise the Lord for your safe travel.
God bless.
Dearest Victor,
DeleteThank you and yes, with lots of prayers I made it home safely with all that I had with me.
Hugs,
Mariette
What a wonderful return home!
ReplyDeleteDearest Anne,
DeleteAbsolutely! So happy for having made it back.
Hugs,
Mariette
Very nice roses and vases! Hope you had a nice time. I can only comment only that way. Catherine from france
ReplyDeleteDearest Catherine,
DeleteThank you and yes, my time in Limburg was fabulous and meaningful!
The commenting problem I'd to face myself and suddenly it was normal again... Did not change anything.
Hugs,
Mariette

Dearest Teresa Isabel,
DeleteLovely and above all; meaningful!
Hugs,

Beautiful roses, and what a thoughtful husband you have!
ReplyDeleteDearest Peter,
DeleteYes, precious roses and even more so for the gesture.
Very proud of my husband who managed to be solo so well.
Hugs,
Mariette
Looks like someone is very happy you are home! What a beautiful surprise. Funny story. I was gone once for a lengthy time in my first marriage. When I returned home there was a stack of his shirts on the kitchen table that greeted me. He said he was waiting for me to return and iron them. Is there any question as to why he is my ex?
ReplyDeleteDearest Janey,
DeleteOh yes, Pieter was as happy that I was home, as I myself!
Good grief, talking about sending a strong message as for demanding his 'servant' to get into action for him...
Glad you found a better partner for life with more respect and shared values and interests!
Hugs,
Mariette
I hope you have a great day!

Since 1987 we never have been separated that long...
Hugs,
