For the guy with kids and WW II

[hopeful4her]

I would love to see a Laker/Spurs conference final showdown. Have to win another home game.

The good days are starting to string together more. I feel good, but it I just know in my heart that it is only me sticking my head in the sand. Perhaps. I keep on. I wish she would send me an email or text or something. I keep wanting to send her something, but I resist it.

Stayed a work an hour later than usual. Called home to tell kids I was on my way. D11 says that D6 ate all the peaches and wants some more and S14 says he spoke to WW and she is on her way. WW hasn't called me like she has the past few days when she gets out of work or at least getting off soon. Oh well. I get her call at about 6:30. She just left work. I tell her I will stop at grocery store to get some fruit. WW suggests barbequing the boneless ribs. Its kinda hot, but I agree. She says she will go drop off the videos and get some more. We talk a little small talk and then she asks if I can get her some makeup that she needs.

After I get everything I need for tonite, I am looking for her makeup. Nothing. I know exactly what she wants. It ain't there. I call her and no answer. Call again, and nothing. I have been at the store at least 45 minutes. The video store is in the same parking lot as where I am. Ok, she is either on the phone with OM and ignoring me or she still has her phone ringer off from work and can't hear my calls. I check out and drive past video store. No car. Five minutes from home, WW calls me and says she left her phone in car. She's been home and has decided to cook the ribs inside because it is too hot.

WW starts to cook and D's are working on gift bags for teacher appreciation day. I take over cooking and tell WW to help the girls. At dinner, WW says grace and afterwards, I watch my Spurs and WW watches one of the movies she got. After my game, I go sit with WW and finish the movie. After the movie, we talk about her day a little and the trip for the weekend.


This morning I wake up and find our arms together. She moves and her hand falls into mine and we are holding hands in her sleep. The alarm starts and I try to move and she tightens her grip. A couple of times. Then she moves again, and now she is kind of hugging my arm. I wish this could be happening with our eyes open.

Don't get me wrong. She was asleep. But it felt great.
