I was home from work early in the afternoon, but didn't have any contact with H until around 6:30, when I called to check with him on what his plans were for the evening. He said he would probably leave the shop in about an hour. I felt like he was slightly irritated and short on the phone with me, but I didn't call him back like I wanted to (to get reassurance and attention). Big victory there for me.
At around 8pm, he showed up with a roommate of his (male, of course). He had him mow our lawn, and he and S worked in the yard with him while I went to get myself an iced coffee - I needed a bit of time to myself to get centered. I stopped to get him some Pepsi, and we had some really fun time outside with S.
His roommate left and we went inside, and hung out for a while while H played Zelda and S pretended to play Zelda. Then I wrestled S into his jammies, and we finally got him into bed. I did some cleanup type chores around the house, and after S was asleep, H and I put in a movie, a comedy he had rented called "Mr. Wrong." Very funny, and we really had a good time. I was very upbeat the whole night, and he seemed to really respond to that. We flirted during the movie, snuggling, play-fighting, etc, and then after the movie we both snuggled into bed and there was some lovely holding that led naturally into some less PG-rated stuff.
I laid out my and S's clothes last night, so we were able to get out the door smoothly and on time, and I left H sleeping in our bed with a kiss and a hug.
It was quiet, and since I really concentrated on enjoying the moment - I really did enjoy it! More later, Myrrh
One moment of patience may ward off great disaster. One moment of impatience may ruin a whole life.
