Joy M's been around since history began, or first moved to Albuquerque since May, 2006 after meeting on eHarmony in 2005.  When she moved there from Florida, we were roommates until we found that we really weren't that compatible as a couple.  We ended up moving to another apartment complex with 2 cater-corner units open in a quadruplex.  That worked out well and we remained fast friends.

On my move to Indiana in 2014, she came along with me (along with Ed "Josh" V.) and we now share a house.  We have learned to keep that relationship in the past.  I have a bedroom at the front of the house and she has the converted back porch which is now a bedroom as far away from the front door as possible (she does have the back door). With Joy's help, we got a rather large garage built and have gotten nearly all the upgrades we'd planned to do with it as of March, 2023. Possible concrete coating, maybe a natural gas line run for an appropriate space heater. It's not a priority right now. Had a couple of more really cool improvements (that need some tweaking) in late 2023.

 Now, onto the photos. Against her wishes (I'm sure), I'm going to include a few more recent that I really like, but not just yet. She's in the process of doing some personal updates we'll just wait until they're done. :-)
