Hello Everyone,
Sorry I didn't have time to get on yesterday, but I had a date!

Yesterday around 9:30 am my telephone rang, yes, you guessed it, it was my H. He told me he had planned on calling me Friday night to see if we had made it home okay from the game (12:00 am), but laid down for a second and woke up around 2:00 am. I was puzzled by that, seeing that I followed him all the way home on the two hour drive. He only exits from the interstate one exit from mine so basically he knew I made it home safely. He probably got to his house like 10 minutes before I got to mine.

We talked a while and he told me that he had been working already about two hours. I said so are you working all day? He said, "you will probably think this is crazy, but I thought we might head to the college game." I said," no, I think that sounds good." He said that his cousin and his family were going and we could meet them there. So H, youngest DD(oldest DD had plans), and I took a four hour road trip to the game.

When we got there we stopped by where some of our friends were tailgating and got a cold refreshing "beverage". Two of my closest friends were there. They were so happy to see us together.

As we were walking around DD kept pointing out cars that she liked and told him that's what I want for my next car. Yes, she's very spoiled. We walked by a Mercedes SUV and "I said that is gorgeous, you want to buy it for me?" He said "Honey, when have I not bought you what you want?" He said between you and DD I'm going to have to work 24 hours a day to buy you these cars and started laughing. He kept talking like we were together and even talked about future events. At one point DD's friend was teasing him and he looked at her and said teasingly "we're not going to take you to the lake with us anymore, are we?" and looked at me.

H was very sweet and attentive all day long. He held my hand while we were walking and during the game. He acted like he did when we were dating.

I have one more thing to add, one of my closest friends who has held my hand during all of this called me yesterday. Her H and mine have been friends longer than have, that's how I became friends with her. She said that her H told her that he and my H were going to their hunting club Thurs. afternoon and just out of the blue my H told her H that he had spent most of the previous weekend with me. The friend told him that was great and he was happy to hear it. That was the same day that he came up and helped me at the concession stand.

So I'm trying to take things very slowly, but I think it is very positive that he is talking to his friend about me and that he took me around family and friends.
