On the fly

How you doin'? I am ok. I have been doing a lot, which leaves little time to sort out my thoughts. Tonight, it's just me. I can relax, put my feet up and just be. I just have to get through work first. My body is aching for a rest. Literally.

I am hoping that going to the coast this weekend will remedy that. It's just me and Rach. Nice and easy going, no itinerary of stuff to see except some slow walking along the water with camera in hand.

The new guy thing is going good. I've made it to the 4th date. It has been a long time that I can sit and talk with someone about the future. Each of our own futures as well as what we can do together. He talks and expects that I will be a part of his and he, mine. It's nice... He makes me feel protected, like I am some precious treasure but yet, respected.

He is making a little effort with my daughter with being friendly and asking how she is doing on the phone. I think it makes her feel a part and recognized as a prime person in this relationship. She was having a few issues at first, and is a little still, about me dating. She doesn't like it when I go out with someone. And it doesn't matter who really, she doesn't like anyone.

Her comment to me last night, just before bed, was "You know Mom, I still want a little brother or sister. Maybe you guys can get married?"

I think she is warming up to him a little...

Your welcome! :)

Did you say Step? As in step parent? Yikes! We are so not "there" yet :P

But, I have been a step parent and it's hard, too, when you try really hard to be accepted, in whatever way they want to do so, and you just can't make a way. I think so long as I reinforce that she will always be THE priority in my life, then we are good...I hope.
