Villanueva de la Cañada
Madrid, Spain.
A stranger to her own blog.That is how she feels today. Six months have passed since she wrote her last post.
Nothing was familiar to her anymore. Not even signing in. What was that password she used? She couldn´t remember
it and did the pertinent changes to one she could easily remember. Afterward, she just stared at the computer screen
and wondered if she could even concentrate enough to write; To finish what she had started, on February 25, 2010,
with so much faith, hope, joy and love- her blog. Because her blog, Between U.S.A and Spain had a purpose. To tell
a story with a happy ending. At least she believed so then.
If only life hadn´t stabbed her in the back...
everything would be so different. Returning to her blog would be
a joyous moment. A victorious moment. Not one that caused her
anxiety, and made her want to run out of her room.
She wished she could turn back time. To be
herself again. To be with her husband. Whole. Not this half
person she has become. A stranger to herself. A stranger to her
own story. To her blog.
Where is the old Juana? That woman. The one that
chronicled, for nearly two years, by WEEKS from her pretty
house in Auburn, Georgia, about life while waiting to reunite
with her faithful and loving husband, Pepe, in Spain. Well, that
woman is gone. She left the day tragedy struck them without
compassion on the afternoon of her husband´s 52nd birthday...
February 20th, 2012. And now, what´s left of the old Juana,
needs to continue the posts where she left off... so she can finish
the story. Their story. The one with the heartbreaking ending.
Pepe, my love
I am doing this for you:
Between U.S.A. and Spain will continue with WEEK 96
