done. I was sitting on the stoop waiting when he pulled up. He parked and was coming up but I met him at the car. Gave him the drive and he asked a few ? about it. He's not tech inclined in the least. He wanted to be sure that the estimate sheets & invoices that I designed for him were included. He asked which pics went on and I {lied} & said I didn't have time to look at them, just put the whole file on so I don't know what's there, but surely the work pics were there. {he wanted his work pics, but I put all pics of us & our kids together as well}
I asked about his son and he talked a bit about the summer program he's in. He did look me in the face this time. Again he was wearing a shirt I got him- when I traveled to Nepal last year.
I also gave him his favorite tea. I was in his country a few months ago & got it in case he was ever over and I could impress him by making it. But I hate it and there's not much chance that he'll be here drinking a cup of tea anytime soon, so I gave it to him.
Also gave him one of my new products. I talked about making the product co. for years and he was frustrated that I didn't launch it. So I wanted to show off. I gave him one and he looked only slightly surprised and said thanks. But seriously.... he had to be VERY surpriseed that I have actually done it!
I know I look good cuz I was getting looks from a few men so he had to have noticed too.
I was relaxed, happy, & claimed to be leaving for a meeting so had to get going. {I am totally faking it, but it looks real!}
He said if we can't find a time for him to come get his things that I could get it all organized for him. I replied that I don't even know what all is his so he'll have to come. We'll have to speak again now in order for that to happen. :-D
Now I have very crazy mixed emotions. My eyes are welled up with tears. At the same time I'm so happy to have seen him, however briefly. He's so handsome, he looks great. I know how he should look in the a.m. headed to a dirty job, so I think he was trying to impress me too.
This DB stuff is so counterintuitive. Acting as if all is well when I so badly want to tell him I want to be with him.
Off to work now. Wiping away the tears and ready to face another busy day.
