I guess we both found out that the age old saying is true…, “You find someone when you are least expecting, or when you stop looking”. In this case, The former is true for Martina, the latter is true for Tom. So we will begin with Tom. Tom grew up in several small towns across Ohio, and lived life as the pricipals kid. Yes, his father was a principal, and he will be the first to tell you when he got in trouble at school, he would get in trouble 3 times. His dad would give him the 3rd degree at school and then when he went home he would get it from his mom, and then dad came home, and he would face his parents together…and still he just didnt learn. The T in Tom actually stood for Trouble. The poor guy never gave himself a break, and he wiill also be the first to tell you his guardian angel was broken bruised and bloody, and probably wanted to quit a few times. If you are in need of a good laugh, and a pick me up to remind yourself that your own life isnt so bad, just ask him to tell you about one or two of the little lessons he has learned about life. So now a little but about Martina. Martina, unlike Tom, was the perfect little angel. She has two brothers that she took care of, and never led them astray… or so she would have you believe….. the little angel that could do no wrong. I am sure that her brothers would be willing to back this story up, or risk actually having some of the blackmail photos become public knowledge. Lets just say, she survived, and so did her brothers, We have been in so many of the same places at the same time yet did not meet until God wanted. We like the same music, movies, we are both Irish, Catholic, and nurses, and seem to have about the same mind set when it comes to pretty much everything we do. Its actually rather amazing that either of us have lived long enough to meet each other and fall immediately in love. We may not be perfect, but we are perfect for each other, and that is how our story will continue to evolve.
