Hopalong:
Well all that sounds healthy too!
It's good to hear your focus less on Hol and more on your own life.
(That doesn't diminish her significance in your life, but it's good to hear you kind of back in your own life, which is where we all mostly must live and make decisions.)
Big hugs and kudos,
Hops

annnnnnndddd... just like that, outta the blue...
I got an invitation to meet someone over dinner. Not from the dating site; from one of the forums I read from time to time. I don't post much anymore there because I just spend too much time chatting online with people anyway. Pretty much down to this place (you all) and one other off-grid forum of folks I've known and had mutually caring communications with for a long time.
I've been tossing around whether I would respond to him; and how. Hol took off to hunt morels with her "green man" sweetie. I'm just fiddling around this morning getting things tidied up - will have company the end of the month again. My friend Deb and possibly one of the gents from that forum that I'm still participating in. We're trading some things; and his health is very fragile now. He let me call him at any time of night when I was going through the worst of the Mike thing. A friend; a good friend. Not to say I don't entertain fantasies from time to time. But he really is terminal and may not be able to make the trip. He's postponed a couple times already because of needing hospital care. He's wanting to hang in there until his daughter graduates HS.
It's warm enough today I might need to put shorts on... so many things "to-do"... that I've been just living with, the way it is and doing other things. I just need to start SOMEwhere and get a couple of those things off my mental list.

Hi Amber:L
Just a reminder to not get all bug bit in those shorts. It could be time to sluff, have a pedicure, and pay attention to moisturizing hands, face, and skin generally, bc you just never know; )

Well there you go! Just dinner. And just a human.
What's nice, I found, is to think of any/every date as "practice."
That really bleeds the valve and lowers the psi.
You're awesome, Amber. And doing such a great job of living life.
love,
Hops

That all sounds like you're in a good place, Skep :) The dinner sounds like a really nice opportunity. I did laugh about the duct tape in the dating profile :) Lol, it might be the bit that makes some men more interested! You never know :) I hope the dinner goes well and I'm glad things have worked out with your houseguest - he's been very lucky to find you and H. I hope H's house plans start to come along well, will you manage that as well as your own place or is Holly doing everything to do with it? It all sounds very exciting (and busy!) xx
