A Little Epiphany - (and a newbie delurking)

[girlfromoz]

Oh Dia

You and your cooking, I wish I could just throw something together like that, I am cooking challenged and seem to always need a recipe.

I wish I had half your courage to go along as you do, you always manage to pick yourself up and keep on going, I need lessons.

Thanks, Oz. It was a very 'comfort-foody' supper. I needed that, tho.

Kett - It's in a good context (I hope!). When I got back from being gone for the weekend, I asked him if he wanted me back on the couch. He said yes, but a few mins later he hugged me and said it was just until we could talk some things out because he didn't want his body making decisions for him.

Translating: If I sleep beside him, he's not going to be able to stop himself from F-ing my brains out. (those words were used)

Dude, so hurry up and talk then!! I want my cuddles back. <impatient foot tapping>

Hey,

You're doing great. Sniffles and all.

Thanks, Gima.

Pseudephedrine is my friend.

I LIVE on that stuff - actually the "PE" stuff that doesn't have the ephedine that makes your heart race. Bad weather here, and my sinuses always react to the changing pressure systems when they come through. NOT FUN.

Not sure why I'm always hungry after I read your posts Dia.

I think that gods gift to human kind is Alka-seltzer plus, night time. I think that no matter your complaint that stuff will help!

Dia, dont you have a SIL that has been fairly supportive? Maybe an aunt or uncle could watch him. Im glad that you are feeling better!

Good to hear your on the mend, I feel your inpatience at needing a cuddle from H too..

H was very sweet to me last night. I got a *long* hug when he got home, then he complimented and stroked my hair. Afterwards, he joked about it.

H (teasing): Um, my fingers were just wet and I wanted to dry them.

Dia: Oh? And if *my* fingers are wet, where do *I* get to dry them?

(H has a brush cut, so the only hair available isn't on his head.)

H: <blushes and stammers> (Ha! Got him!)

He was also very appreciative and complimentary of the brownies and the chicken stew, which I thought would last two nights, was gone in one. Kidlet tucked right in to it, eating three bowls worth.

I mentioned mucking out kidlet's room over the weekend, and H said he would help. Then kidlet chimed in to say that he'd decided he wanted to switch rooms after all, which makes for a much bigger task. Overall, this is a good thing. Kidlet will be much happier in the guest room/laundry room as the square shape is much more usable. IT also means he'll be able to have sleepovers in his own room as we'll be able to pull out his trundle bed now. His current room is too narrow for that.

One of H's work buddies is at loose ends for the next two nights as his wife and baby are away on a visit. So the guys from work are having two nights of male debauchery at the no-wife house.

Kidlet and I have planned some 'no Daddy' debauchery of our own, complete with pizza and movies.
