NEW LIFE / NEW ME - TAKING OFF!

[Fartiltre]

I received a text from W around 8AM this morning telling me that D6 was ill (nothing major, just a stomach ache) and staying at home. I didn’t reply but called 3-4 hours later to hear how she was doing and to talk with her. D6 actually came to the phone this time and we talked for a short while.
At this time I didn’t feel like inviting W over so I didn’t.

I have been working some wood all day but in the afternoon I drove to town to get groceries and at the supermarket I ran into W and D6. D6 saw me first and came running so I just sat down and hugged her and talked a little. Then I stood up and gave W a loose hug and a smile. Back on the floor talking further with D6. I told her that I had been considering to pick her up this afternoon and do something with her since W was working at home. (Properly not that smart but I had been thinking about it and it just flew out my mouth) She immediately replied that she wanted to go with me. I had to tell her no since she and W was on the way to pick up D4 and then home for dinner and the Friday evening routine. She asked 2-3 times more if she could come home with me and then I said: “No, but you can take mom and D4 tomorrow and then we can make hot buns and lemonade and enjoy ourselves for some hours”
Then a few minutes more talking and then W picked up and asked if it was at 3PM and we agreed on that. Major goodbye hug to D6 and a big smile to W and then I left.

So it is arranged!

I felt good at the meet up today. Better eye-contact, smiling and so on – but not that much focus on W anyway.

It was just a suggestion. If you are not ready to have her over, then plan to meet for refreshments somewhere....or some of your other ideas you had.

I know! But I have been thinking about it and I don’t think I will be ready for this soon. I will have to face this sooner or later.
