last weekend.

Last weekend went well. 

Actually better than well.

I'm starting on this thing. I asked and it was more than a light joke. I got a proper response. So we are gonna try this and see how it works. It will be long distance, and we both will need to fit visits in our schedules.  But I think it may help in the long run.. if we are not up in each others space all the time. 

Since we started flirting with this, we have been able to make plans and change schedules and have fun. 

So, we plan and will make it happen.

I think we both need this. 

We are similar, dedicated to our kid, and our job and making our lives comfortable. Yes we work too much, and I think it's mainly because we didn't think we had any other options..work and keep a home, raise our kids.. find things we like to occupy our lives and immerse ourselves in work and home. Never really doing much for ourselves. 

But, throw in a partner.. and hope we remember how to share our lives...ourselves.. and not lose our momentum.. we have been on a roll for so long...why mess that up?? For some companionship..someone we can talk to and all the other benefits... Why would a person want to do that?? ... obvious..because we need more..we need to belong .  To be able to share all we do, have been doing..our reason for why we do it. To be proud of what we have done and are doing . .and to share with someone else that could appreciate it..and we can appreciate all they do too .

And if we have fun and feel loved even better! 

....

So. .. the weekend actually the last day.  Went great, we had lunch, walked and talked the canal and the hotel deck chairs.. then drove to a secluded beach and talked and walked.. then went to the pond and waded on the shore.

Lots of talking and listening.

I felt comfortable. So did she.

I looked at her car and off she went back home.a really long day..and work the next day.. 

. 

I was asked by several people.. why I was smiling.. 

It's that obvious.
