I saw M GF this morning - she lives in the house right behind me. She loves gardening too - we chatted about how I may be losing the only shrubby that I allowed the landscaper to plant! All the stuff I planted myself is doing well.
Anyway - in the past I think she was always a little afraid of me. And while I posted up a storm here as I swung back and forth from empathizing to judgning - I may be the only one that has not torn her to shreds. I have not said I support/not support what she is doing - but rather I tried to dismantle the reason she was doing what she was doing. Quite a challenge when you've been drinking...
Today - for the first time, she seemed a little more relaxed with me. Me - Ms Have Not Been On A Date in a million years - is probably the safest person on the planet - her H knows that W is unlikely to meet anyone while with me b/c my expertise lies in driving away potential romantic interests - not in attracting them!
M GF is excited about the breast cancer walk - which means I can no longer waffle myself! LOL!
I do talk to her H all the time to - but it is like conversations with most of my male friends - work/finances centered.
I will do something else the next time I am with both of them. I don't want to post about that b/c it involves a "resolved issue." I posted about it years go and it is done as far as I am concerned - I do not want to open up a discussion here.
I think I am going to stay in and paint my bedroom this weekend. This last weekend - I left the hermit habitat and ended up with so many UNUSUAL events - that I need to hang out in an issue free zone (or least where the only issues are my own. )
My bathroom scale and I are going through a trial separation and the scale has moved out of the bathroom and into my closet. We need some time apart. Clearly the scale's refusal to budge even a pound after TWO months has created some compromise issues. I am hoping the scale will decide to come around in a week or two and give even a little - if I am ready to stand on it again. I should be grateful that my clothes have decided to fit - breaking up with them would create a whole different set of issues!
Life is good! Yes, I have to work for a living - but such is life.
