Hey...time for me to catch you all up....at least anyone who's paying attention!! (kidding!!!)

Didn't hear much at all from H all week. He called once and talked with S. He called this morning and said he would like to come out as planned...11am, spend the day, have his birthday dinner with S and I. I said that would be fine....we had discussed this last Sunday. He came out, I was exercisng...he checked our dog (who had been slightly hit by a car yesterday....a whole nother scary story...but he is ok. Thank God...!!!). He found me in the basement on the tread, chatted, S came down, we all talked about the day...caught up. S left for his job, H asked me if I'd like to go out shopping a bit to Nike, then maybe hit some golf balls. I said that would be fine.

He came upstairs, after I showered, watched me dress and talked. We just caught up on weekly stuff. It was pleasant. He asked me once if I had anything to talk to him about...he sensed I did...so I said..."No, not really." Then realized I better not act quite so disstant. Just upbeat and friendly.

We went to the outlet mall, shopped some for his birthday and S's coming up. Then came home had a quick lunch. Just chatted like friends. Then went to the golf course to hit balls. He asked if I wanted to play 9 holes...just for fun. I said, sure...that sounds good. we have not played actual golf together in years....really years!!! I play with some gf, he plays at work events....thats all. We did ok...sometimes lousy...but nonetheless had a good time, like good friends.

On the way home we discussed dinner...what he wanted...cuz it was his B-day yesterday. I cooked a simple dinner...we opened his cards, gifts from S (not me) and then had champagne. He toasted me privately and said.."here's to good years ahead!" BTW...he had also said while in the car....hey if you buy the lotto ticket this week....33mil...we could go to Utah and and buy that cabin house in Park City we talk about. He said the lotto is Tues, we'll fly out Wed and do it! I said, "that's a good idea"

Just little things throughout the day...interesting. No affection...just talk.

He then asked me to come into the city for dinner this coming week. Asked me which night would be best for me. We discussed either Sun or Mon....based on daily plans. He later asked me to come in tomorrow afternoon, have an Italian dinner and take the train back the next A.M. The next morning???? He said, ya...our S can take care of the dog...what do you think? I said, ok...that might work out. I'l talk with S.

he also had asked earlier...if he could stay here tonight...in the guest room....cuz he wanted to drink wine, and relax tonight....not have to drive into the city. I said that would be fine.


Ok...my BB buds....is this piecing or what? He is initiating a ton....but in a respectful way. No cake eating or anything. Hmmmmm....staying in the city tomorrow....in his apt and all. Should be interesting.

he fell asleep on the couch just now...couldn't wait to let you all know.


Any tips for tomorrow? He will leave early in the morning, I will stay here....go to church...hang a while, then take the train in the city. He said he'd pick me up. It's kind of like real dating. Weird, but in a good way....cuz he's inching his way toward me....I can tell!!!
