A new thread, a new outlook.....

[Can it work]

Good morning all,

Just thought I'd take this opportunity at the start of another day to journal a bit.

I picked up Wee Man from my W's house last night. We chatted for a bit but there was nothing exciting really. I paid her a compliment about her weight loss and she seemed to take it the normal way women take compliments like that. She complained that she hadn't yet lost enough?!?! She looks stunning. The best I've seen her look in as long as I've known her. I didn't say that though obviously. There's a slim chance that may be pursuing.

Later, when I was leaving, my W told Wee Man to be a good boy. I answered back that I would be. This got a laugh from her so that felt quite good.

The other thing we talked about while I was there was about other people we knew who have been separating. There seems to be a few of them around at the moment. I tried not to get too drawn in to the conversation though for fear of making comparisons to ourselves. I could be wrong but I think she may have been a little disapproving of all these other people splitting up.

Anyway, other than that, I don't really have much to report. Wee Man was as good as gold last night. My W's cousin is coming over to mine to watch the football tonight so that should be fun. At times I can still feel my impatience creeping in but I try to ignore it. I do think I might ask my W on Saturday whether she wants to go swimming with me and Wee Man on Sunday morning. I doubt she'll accept but I have to start trying to get us to do things together as a family again. We need to spend time together if we're ever going to build up a proper friendship. Does anyone else have any ideas on things to do together with Wee Man which don't sound like dates? The weather's awful here at the moment so picnics are out by the way!
