JOURNALING:
The night that Michael asked my dad for my hand in marriage, my mom & I hid in the other room, wondering what
they would say to one another. All we heard was my dad saying ~she's crazy like her mom you know?~ and Michael's reply ~yes
I know but thats why I love her~ Mom and I totally cracked up! See we ARE crazy =) A few weeks later we went to a jeweler
and picked out beautiful diamond solitaire engagement ring along with matching gold bands. Money was tight and we didn't have
any credit cards, so he couldn't take the rings til they were totally paid off. One night in July, 1978 after I had graduated
from my internship and before he headed back to law school, he took me out to dinner at the Pomona Valley Mining Company. Right before our
desserts arrived he pulled out the engagement ring and officially asked me to marry him. Of course I started crying and the waiter
rushed over to ask if everything was okay. We both looked up at him and said ~everything is just perfect~
