Well his first response was unexpected. I expected the silent pouting treatment. Instead he asked me last night via text if I was taking Nathan to open gym. I had mentioned on Saturday after the game that I would be taking him to open gym times at the Y to practice since they are on a 3 week break in his league.
So anyway he asked if I was taking Nathan and I said yes. Because regardless of Dan I do think Nathan needs to keep practicing. So then he comes to the open gym time?? Carrying brand new basketball shoes, no less. I said, "Nice shoes." He says, "Yeah well the shoelace broke on my old ones." That just cracked me up. If you want new shoes, buy them, no need to make excuses!
So he came over to the court where I was practicing with Nathan and started practicing with us. Asking me to do some different things and we all three worked on drills together while Sydney played on the other side of the court (nobody else was there). Finally Sydney was fussing so I went and played with her for about 15 minutes--and rediscovered that I can still do cartwheels!
Then I went back over and we played together again, all together for about an hour and ten minutes. Then the kids and I left and I suppose he left too, we didn't wait around to see...
As far as my dating life, I am still talking to HG, but we haven't gone out since the weekend before this, we are on opposite kid schedules...but I definitely want to see him and I am pretty sure he feels the same way.
For example he texted me Friday to see what I was up to. I was at the Nutcracker. On the way home I was telling him how it went and mentioned I danced for 15 years so I love watching good dancing. He replied something about, "I hope I never get you out on the dancefloor then, I can't dance!"
Then he asked how my Christmas prep was going, I said I had everything bought and wrapped. He said, "Good, then you can help me if I ever get started. j/k " I told him no problem I love shopping and wrapping...
He is definitely loosening up which I like. He has been nothing but a gentleman and I really respect that but I am used to being able to tease, too, so it's good that he is lightening up there...
And glad to hear hockey guy is relaxing a bit more...

So HG and I have been 'in touch' as he puts it for the past week and half since we last got together for breakfast. He has his kids on an opposite schedule of mine so we don't have a lot of free days in common. Thanksgiving worked out bc our exes had our kids, then the weekend I saw him Sat/Sun my parents had my kids for a slumber party.
Well, Wednesday is my kid free night. I know he is kid free this whole week. I really want to suggest getting together but I don't know if I should. He seems to like being 'the guy' but still! He is very spontaneous (has said he has been known to decide to take a trip and then leave home within hours) so he doesn't appear to plan ahead much. I like spontaneous but with little kids at home, sometimes a girl has to plan!
Con Agra (big corporation) has put up an ice rink on their complex as part of a charity fundraising drive. $5 gets you skates and unlimited skate time. I think it would be a fun and cheap way to spend an hour or two...
Ok I did. I did not specifically say ice skating but if he says he is free I will offer that up. And no I am not a prodigy I probably need remedial skating classes!
