Hi love.

So I'm very new to your page and I just wanted to ask a random question because I was scrolling through. Do you think Sam will ever settle down or is he just having fun?

Hopefully that's okay to ask.

Hi, welcome to my blog! Years of stuff to catch up on. Of course it's OK to ask.

As for Sam, he's a self-admitted late bloomer in life and he's late to the game as far as fame, plus he's got issues related to not wanting to make the mistakes that his father did. All that to say, I do think Sam will eventually settle down with one woman, but not right now. I don't know if he will actually get married, but I do think he will have another committed relationship at some point in a few years. But, for now, Outlander is over and I'm sure he wants to be free to travel more, grow his businesses, and continue to act. Men don't have biological clocks the way women do, so I'm assuming in his mind, he's got time. I'm thinking of someone like George Clooney who didn't get married until age 53. His wife was 36. I see Sam going down that route. But, I could be totally wrong and he'll surprise us, and it will happen sooner. Tbh, I really don't care, whatever he does, as long as he's happy, I'm happy for him.

I hope that answers your question, Anon, thanks for stopping by! ❤️

How did we get here?

It’s June and I’ve only just met you. Your long boyish hair that could use a trim, perfect teeth, an outfit out of date a full decade, and a laugh that echos with your nerves. Maybe, I think. You ask if I want to see you again and I say yes before we both turn and bolt back to our cars. I smile getting in, knowing you don’t quite know what to do with me yet.

July and you’ve made me laugh. I’m leading with my head this time. It’s less kind than my heart and quicker to judge. But somehow, even then it can’t find anything to worry about.

August, and the only thing I can worry about is that this may be the real deal. I tell my friends about you. You ask me if I want to be with you and I tell you I do, because of course, it’s you. And I’m leaving for a few weeks and I can’t help but miss you a bit with my heart, even if my head stays out of the worry. Only 3 weeks.

September and I worry I’ve ruined it all. But I haven’t broken your heart and I tell myself I won’t, not ever. I balked from this, from you, just this once. For a heart so afraid to settle, a small sabotage was more than expected. But I see your face again and it’s real this time, I’m sure of it.

September still and I see your face and I’m the sun. September and I’m still sure. September and you ask me to meet your mother and it only scares me for a minute. September and I think of how your mother and mine could be friends. September and I can only hope you’re sure of me, for every fault.

September and maybe we’re both home.

They had Greece, southern Iraq, and central Asia by 6000, Egypt and central Europe by 5000, and the shores of the Atlantic by 4000 (Figure 2.4). (...) The second theory says none of these things happened, because the first farmers across most of the regions shown in Figure 2.4 were not descendants of immigrants from the Hilly Flanks at all. They were local hunter-gatherers who settled down and became farmers themselves. (...) After sweeping from what is now Poland to the Paris Basin in a couple of hundred years before 5200 BCE, the wave of agricultural advance ground to a halt (Figure 2.4).

*Altair has retreated back to Coffee's room since Whole's stuff was still in the guest room, at least to his knowledge. After some thought while pacing they decided to summon a few things from home. A bass guitar with a mini amp that was covered in a few graphic stickers and a big ol' blue painted box that contained a sketchbook, leatherworking kit with leather and buttons; a collection of stickers, and a sewing kit. Just a few hobby related personal belongings that could keep him busy in his free time. Though he might not have much it's something for the forced breaks.*

TT: Do you ever see yourself settling down in the future?

Nahi smiled at the question and tucked her feet up beneath her looking at the small fire pit in her backyard, then up over the back of her house and smiled. Swirling around a claret in the nice glasses she had gotten from storage, they were Iren’s from the old house but some things she did not want to buy new. Limiting expenses was important and until she had a better grasp on the estate finances with the recent issues. 

Would she like to settle down? It sounded nice but she was still learning to just be herself in her own home. Maybe the definition of that was different for everyone, but she was putting down roots and that was the start of settling down, right?

What were your parents doing at your age?

At 56, I find myself reflecting on my parents at this age. My father, an Army officer, was settling into retirement, while my mother, a dedicated homemaker, embraced the quiet life in our home in Kerala. They were winding down, preparing for a peaceful, settled existence. In some ways, I see myself following a similar pattern—but with a twist. I now split my time between Kerala and Mumbai, two…

11/08 - Lago Vista, TX - THE LINE DANCING LADIES - Believe it or not, this group of ladies is one of the main reasons we live here. Back in the Spring of 2023, we were still living in the Airstream and focused on house hunting in Lago Vista and nearby Georgetown. During this time, we would typically spend our mornings taking care of our physical fitness and our afternoons house hunting. We started out just doing pickle ball and liked the people we met doing that. Some of the pickle ball ladies also did line dancing and invited Jacque to dance with them. Now we had an even bigger circle of friends and we didn’t even live in Lago Vista yet. That was the difference maker for us and it quickly dawned on us that we should discontinue our Georgetown search and focus solely on Lago Vista. For us, it was all about how welcomed the people we had met made us feel. Eighteen months later, we are very pleased with our decision to settle down in Lago. Thank you line dancing ladies for helping us with our big life decision.
