Sorry for no morning coffee and positives this morning but I had to get up and go to the gym. When I got back I just took it easy and rested some. There were plenty of positives though on my date w/ C which started New Years Eve around 4pm. When I got there she was asleep on the couch. We just sat and talked for a few minutes. She stated that her feet were rough again so I got the foot cream and gave her a foot massage as I listened to her talk about a problem she was having that was getting her really down. Still discouraged and down about employee and since no shower today and said she wanted to shower before going to work out so I tell her to just wait a few then go and draw a bubble bath for her light some candles and put on some soft music I leave her alone while I give puppy a bath in Kitchen sink.
After her bath she gets dressed and we start to go to work out but get side tracked and go to eat with sis and family at Zaxby’s instead. After dinner we go to see her Aunt who is elderly and is not doing too well. On the way we talked like two young people who were just starting dating. Laughed, kidded, talked about things from our past before we met and just had a good time. Her aunt was feeling much better than a few days ago and C had a great visit with her aunt and uncle. On the way home we again talked and just enjoyed each other’s company.
When we got home we built a fire in the fireplace and cuddle while watch TV and settle in on an old Frank Sinatra special on public tv. One of the songs he sings was “Can I try again” It had great lyrics and while he was singing she just looked at me and smiled. We flipped back to one of the main channels to watch the ball drop and we each hugged and kissed as the new year came in. We were so tired though that we then went right to bed, spooned and cuddled and went to sleep.
She got up first and started the coffee brewing then came back to snuggle some. We both got up a little later and I poured and doctored us a cup each, (no neither one of us is a “pure” coffee drinker - both do cream and lately honey) and we then sat and watch the morning news for a few but soon turned off the TV and just talked some more. After a few minutes we fixed some toast and pepper jelly for a quick “hold-us-over” breakfast. We decided that we would go out for breakfast later but C needs to get some food in her early in the morning or she gets kinda sick. After our hold over toast, we took a nice long shower together - it is really nice to get someone to wash your back and to wash someone else’s back in return. After our shower we ended up in the bedroom and were hugging and kissing and she suggested some soft music. When she started the cd and came back to the bed where I was sitting, I stood up and gave her a big hug which ended up in a nice slow dance around the bedroom with more hugging and kissing. Halfway through dance she lost her robe and by the end of the song we were on the bed and stayed there for almost an hour.
When we got up we dressed and went to breakfast at Cracker Barrel. When the breakfast came she requested that we start off the meal with a blessing which I was happy to do. On the way home from breakfast we stopped by her sisters and I gave my gifts to niece and nephew and we visited again for a few minutes. sisters kids.
We then went home and I helped her take down her Christmas tree and decorations and put all the stuff in the attic. She later thanked me saying that without me to help she would not have been able to do it. We then sat down in the living room and ate some chips and salsa and talked for awhile. We were both tired and we then settled down and slept for about an hour on the couch.
Since she had made plans for a girls night out later I went ahead and left but before I went home she said that she had volunteered to baby sit sisters two kids on Friday all night and that I was welcome to come over and help her. And she said she had a great time and really thanked me for coming over. A really nice 27 hour date and she asked me to come over again. Things are looking up for 04
