GOOD EARLY SUNDAY MORNING ALL YOU BUSTIN BUDDYS!!
Had a WONDERFUL DINNER!! I had whitefish, oysters, clams, scallops, shrimp, slaw and a cup of clam chowder...OH MY GAWD WAS IT GOOD!!! There were french fries on the plate but I just don't like them....which is a good thing...all the fish was fresh off the boat and you sure could tell...there was enough left that I brought home for Kate. She'll have enough that all I'll have to fix her to go with it will be a baked potato and a salad. This place that we go just piles on the food... Now for the SURPRISE While we were waiting on our table, out of the blue...my X showed up.(not x-husband...x boyfriend) I've been talking to him for the last 1 1/2 yrs (after a twelve year silence between the two of us.) My friends Debbie and Robyn have been cooking this up for three weeks with Jeff. He drove down to St Pete from Kentucky yesterday (where he is talking to his old boss about a job). After dinner, Robyn, Debbie and her husband Tom deserted me and that left me to go with Jeff. We drove around talking. Things fell right back just like we had never been apart. IF he takes the job (property management) he would be in St Pete which is about an hour from Sarasota. That's just enough distance for now. I still don't know how I feel about this. I still love him, always have...he was a big drinker, but has not had a drink in ten yrs. He is different, but it will take me a while to feel comfortable...Does that make sense? So get ready Girlfriends....I'll be asking for a lot of advice.... :?: I'm off to bed...it's been a LONG NIGHT!!! BOB |
just a pop in to say hello and wish everyone a happy OP day :)
BOB: just my 2 cents.....my oldest son's father was a alcoholic when we were together and that was the main reason we split up...after 7 years of barely talking and making sure he had been sober for 5 years i decided to try again....we were ok for about 8 months.....then i realized that we were just two different people and i couldnt stand him when he was sober either lol....just be careful...there is a comfortable grove when you get back with someone you've been with before...but when years have passed you may realize that you should have stayed friends this time.....just take it slow and try to stay in control of your emotions....(hard, i know) and make sure that if you do get back together with him its because you love him for who his is today and not who he used to be.....sometimes our memory of someone is much better then who they acctually are.....now that said, it may very well work out for you two :) and if its ment to be then it will happen and you will be happy...but if you guys dont get together (or do and it doesnt last) then know that it wasnt ment to be and we will be here with hankies and gallons of SF ice cream for you :) |
AFTERNOON EVERY BUDDY!!
Had a hard time going to sleep...guess I had a lot in my head buzzing around! Finally went to sleep around 5:30 a.m. and then my Brother called at 9:30 this morning! COULD HAVE KILLED HIM!!! Didn't do ANY good to tell him that I was still asleep...he just kept on talking! After hanging up with him, I went back to sleep and woke up around 11:30...hope I don't have a hard time tonight...GOT to be AT WORK....ON TIME!!! Alison...{{{{{{{{THANK YOU SO MUCH}}}}}}}}}}} That's the best thing anyone has EVER said to me about this situation. You make a lot of sense and I know what you say is true. I will take it slow...I'm not sure in my heart if I even want this to be any more than a friendship...a lot of water has run under that old bridge, and I would like to think that my being 52yrs old will give me better judgement this time around. We've always been best friends before anything romantic enters in. AND...between me and you, that would suit me just fine! I'll keep you posted on what's going on. Thanks again, I appreciate your caring! Ok Ladies...today is laundry day...Got to help Kate with her bath...I want to get some oatmeal soap for her to use. I think that will help the itching a lot. I'm going to bake a meatloaf to have for my lunch this week...Kate wants me to fix the other half of that pork tenderloin today for supper tonight. I have some yellow squash, another pound of asparagus and some other veggies that I think I'll throw on a pan and roast in the oven to go with the pork. I'm off for now... BOB |
Bob...
How totally cool Bob. I hope you have a total blast getting to know the new parts of Jeff that have grown and matured. I hope all the good stuff is still there and you have a fantastic adventure rekindling your relationship. And either path you two choose I hope you can be awesome friends.
Love and hugs, Crystle |
Woopie I got my two little stripey tomato plants out. I'll have to watch for frost cause I sure don't want to lose them. Its beautiful and sunny out today and I love it. We'll grill tonight. I think I might get my DH in our bedroom to start repairing some things today. So I'm having a great day. Better run and be a good helper.....

BOB: {{{{{{{{SQUEEZES}}}}}}}} yw hon :) now since when do we have good judgement when it comes to men?!?! men may think with that little devil between their legs but we think with our hearts, and they are MASTERS at fooling us!!!! just try to step back every now and then to evalutate how youre feeling and you should do just fine....OH and if you 'suddenly' notice an annoying habit, bad breath or something trivial like that that you may have never noticed before....it might be your sub-conscious telling you to RUN!!!! :rofl: that happened to me with my ex.....when we were together before the only thing i noticed was his drinking...then after he was sober and got back together i noticed he had a REALLY bad BO problem at night (even with 2 showers a day) it was just a natural funk but i couldnt sleep with him at night...i would end up on the couch...to this day im not sure if it WAS his funk or if i was just supper sensitive to a small thing.....now ud think id take the hint and run for the hills.....oh no not me....i was in this for the long haul this time....im still kicking myself for jumping back into the relationship with him...and for not listening to my inner voice that tried to warn me with his BO :rofl:

Toni: wow we were posting at the same time :)....frost??!?!?! oh my goodness...well i hope you have a frost free time cause tomatoes sound sooooo yummy right now :D

Good afternoon, all my buster buddies! I got the dinner done for church, and delivered it, then made dinner for my family. We had 'knife and fork' fajitas...I was out of tortillas! We also had guacamole salad, and beans. I made a chocolate peanut butter pie for dessert. I ate a piece! :o It was the first time we all four sat down to eat in ages and ages. Unfortunately, Laura was a bit out of it, so she did not talk much, but at least she was pleasant.
Tom has been working away at the plumbing. He removed the pot in the hall bathroom and cut away the wall behind it. It is the wall between the hall bath and our bath. He hopes to have enough done tomorrow to be able to hook up our shower so we can use it tomorrow night. I hope he is able to get that done. When he finishes the whole house, I am going to have some major repair and decorating to do! We leave for church in 30 minutes, so instead of replies right now, I am going to go lay down for a bit. I DO love you all, but right now, my pillow is my best friend! :s: :wave: |
What a nice lazy Sunday. Woke up early and got some things done around the house then ran to Walmart for a few things and back home to finish up laundry. Took a short nap and got up and started the grill and getting a early dinner together. Now Im just waiting for my food to settle so I can go exercise. Looked like rain earlier but now the sun is out.

Wow...I have missed on a lot since yesterday. I don't think I will be able to catch up but I will try to read all the posts anyway. Today has been a nice day so far. We went to church in the morning, then I went grocery shopping by myself. After grocery shopping, I helped my my husband and nextdoor neighbor with some gardening work. I was pooped. I had to run to the store to get 2 more steaks since I invited my neighbor over for some steaks tonight. Sunday seems to be steak day for us nowadays and I love it as I do not have to do the cooking...well, steaks mostly...lol. Tonight's menu will be grilled steaks, grilled eggplants (might even add some grilled fennel, baked beans and some low carb potatoes. Dessert will be cantelope. Eating has been okay except today I had some sushi which I absolutely love so much...yum!
Yesterday night, I watched this movie on Lifetime Channel called, ******* Out of Carolina (not sure if it was a true story) and found it very disturbing and heart-wrenching. I couldn't sleep at night thinking about the poor little girl that was badly abuse. Then, I kept thinking about my Jess and how badly I would feel if someone hurt my child like that and I would protect her to the best I can. In that movie, the mother didn't protect the child like she should. Gosh, it kept me awake and I was tossing and turning the whole night :( Have anyone watch the movie? Just a message for BOB : I am so happy to hear your news with Jeff. I am a romantic gal at heart so I love hearing "love" story...whatever that might be. Your heart will be your guide, just don't over analyze or think too much but enjoy whatever that comes your way, great friendship or a start of a wonderful relationship. Feel free to ask any questions or just share your thoughts, we will be here for you. Got to go get dinner ready. Julia |
Back from church..we did not go out to eat with the group. We came home and scrounged for something for dinner. I think I will read some, then head to bed. I never got much of a nap this afternoon. Just as I was dosing off, Tom came in and woke me to tell me we had to leave in 20 minutes! :rolleyes:
I will be back later, or in the morning! Sweet dreams everyone! |
