Painting toes sounds like great fun. I bet each toe nail will have to have a different color.
A gift for the woman you just started dating? Heck.. a card with a little ornament... or one of those ornaments that you can open and put something in... like a tiny note saying something simple. Then again.. I'm pretty simple.
I wanted to get her kids a couple of CDs and then the Woog came in with his romantic ....get her something she'll remember or something like that.
OOOOHHH Silvio....I got a litle ornament right here....forget about it!
On another note we (d8 and i) had a nice lunch with SD18. I get the feeling that she isn't very happy back here....she can't wait to go back to Alberta. I got the feeling that she wanted to talk about her mom but luckily for me, D8 was with us. Anyhow, she is struggling a little financially, so I gave her a little cash to get her through the holidays at least....hopefully, she won't spend on drugs and alcohol.
Addie, the kids are aware that there mom has been seeing a guy. I don't think that would be an issue. I just don't want to get IL40 a gift yet. She is nice but i am not convinced about the long term viability yet....better this way...one day at a time. Time to call the teacher I think. The evening went well but I think K suggested that I see a few people, just to see what is out there. So all in all a nice evening, even though little John was ready, the coach did not put him in. Oh well...there is always next week. You win some, you lose some and some days it rains so you don't play!
I guess my sports analogy did not read very well...i apologize....there is or was no coach.
No, I am not counting anything.....
I just realized that my attempt at humour may offend or have offended some people .... so LJ will no longer be available for pre or post game interviews..
John - I was thinking of you tonight as G40 and I watched Roberto Benigni's "Life is Beautiful" (I saw it when it first came out in the theaters). She thought it was the best movie we have watched together. I have now put a couple other great Italian language films at the top of my list (Cinema Paradiso and The Bicycle Thief).
Dont fret the coach keeping you out of the game. It is so much more important to connect on a personal level before jumping stages. One book you might want to consider checking out from the library is "Venus and Mars on a Date". Basically, there are 5 stages we need to go through during dating to help make the best long lasting relationship.
