Hi Kev. Well, the cold is slowly starting to ease a bit, but is still here just enough that I still feel cruddy. I have to quit whining!
Any how, the movie was fun and we had a good time. Where the Wild Things Are was magical, like the story book. You really have to see it with an innocent child's mind.
After the movie we went to a diner for coffee. I had pie and he had a sundae. Then we went back to the house and watched the last DVD in the series From the Earth to the Moon that we've been watching. He actually dozed off for a while in the lounge chair.
When he woke up I made us both cups of coffee and we sat and talked while we were drinking them. We actually held hands for quite a while. Funny, how even holding hands seems like a great step now.
He said he had to get going then and I kissed him goodbye (on the cheek, because of the cold.)
Sunday I spoke to my MIL and made plans to go there for dinner. H was working on polishing his motorcycle during the day. I worked on a school project and then went over in the evening.
I actually brought all the fixings and made dinner. Chicken with whole berry cranberries, onion soup mix, and catalina dressing. (Cook for 1 hour at 350.) I brought my rice cooker so we put it over rice. H and in-laws loved it. H had two heaping plate-fulls. Once in a while I get an urge to cook, and with it being just me I don't get to do anything elaborate for the most part.
MIL was talking about this new restaurant that I went to with Strong Marvelous Woman and wanting to try it. I mentioned they had a Sunday brunch. H spoke up and said lets make plans to go there next Sunday. Wow. Everyone agreed, and I am looking forward to it.
Dia, you are rubbing off when I start giving out recipes. : )
I got a very nice hug goodnight on my way home. H said we would make plans to do something on Friday. I said sure just let me know what you have in mind.
All in all a nice weekend. I was up until 1 am finishing my project for tonight's class unfortunately. My body is still adjusting to grad school. My mind is willing, but the body demanded I sleep until 9. I never used to be in bed past 6 am.
I just started reading Passionate Marriage. So far I'm enjoying it. But it will have to wait until I get through some Human Resources stuff first.
I'm pleased that he was comfortable enough to fall asleep here. I'm happy that there were only happy times together this weekend. And the fact that he suggested two get togethers next week is also great.
I hope everyone had a good weekend. I would go check on all of your threads, but I have to read. Maybe if I'm not too tired tonight I will peak back here after class.
