ANOTHER RAINY DAY....

The weekend was a fairly quite one.  I stayed home from Thursday to Monday morning.  Well, kinda stayed home.  Sunday, as the play-off  football games were on and I watched most of them, I had a call from Veteran man who wanted to stop by.  He was down in South County and was passing right by the house.  I couldn't very well say no.  Actually couldn't think of an excuse.

I sent him a list regarding the Marine Corp Birthday Ball that we are working on together.  Seems that is a good excuse to see. me.  A meeting is scheduled for everyone involved on Tuesday night, tomorrow night.

Veteran man did stop over and didn't stay long as he had to get home to get put his dog outside.  He said he would like to come back and take me to dinner and since I was basically going stir crazy I agreed.

He said he would take me to one of my favorite restaurants and listen to the piano player and have a drink and a bite to eat, which we did.  An old friend of mine who goes to this restaurant was there without his wife.  When I asked him about her he said she had fallen, again, and was in the hospital.  She is a tough old bird and I'm sure she will recover.

Should you be wondering about Dez, the poor man has been so sick and just staying home trying to recoup.  He has an appointment with the doctor again as some spots showed up on his lungs when he had his chest xray.  I'm hoping it is minor.  I don't think I'll see him this week either which makes three weeks we haven't see each other.  We do keep in touch by text and email.  His text last night was so garbled and misspelled, which isn't like him, and he said he just had too many meds in his body.  With this rain, I'd just as soon he stay home and get better.  I know he has to leave soon for a job up North.  He hasn't been on site for a while and needs to make an appearance.  The mice do play when the cat is away. With Dez it is business first, as it should be. It is a good thing I have my own life, if I depended on him, or any other man to make me happy, that would be the day, not to mention that Dez hates needy women.

I had a man contact me that I went to lunch with two years ago.  He could almost be Dez's younger brother.  He had cancer at one point, lost his job and just now found another after a couple of years.  He sounded so much more positve and I'm glad he is doing better.  I'm taking meeting him under advisement.  It seems a little silly to get involved with anyone when you don't want to pursue a relationship.  I've been out to enough dinners, lunches, events etc, to not really crave that.  OMG, do you suppose I might be growing up!  Horrors!!!

So life goes on and I'm maintaining.
