Sunday Somethings

So...I was a little bummed today that I didn't get to see my man today, but he was feeling really sick to the stomach and is not one to accept help or consoling. I'm definitely a caretaker and with an ex that could barely get fldressed without asking for help, it just feels odd not helping out when he's sick. Hopefully he'll see that it's good to sometimes just say yes when people offer. ;-)

Hopefully he'll heal up quickly and we can hang out before he hits the road again. Even with him stuck at home, I hit the gym running! It's not as fun without him, but u gotta do what u gotta do. It's weird how quickly I've gotten back into running. I have the cardio down and am burning the calories! With my man's help on the weights and machines, i really have a chance at realizing a dream of hitting my body's peak condition. I'm more determined than ever!

Today I got a call out of the blue from a reporter with a local paper. She asked if she could do an article featuring me as a local hero. I was like...WTF? Lol...and on top of that she's meeting me tomorrow for a photo shoot! I'm hoping I have the balls to ask her to submit it to the local gay publication. That would be amazing! Hoping my digs behave for the shoot!
Now for something to help relax and hit the bed.

This & That

So, my new man is still in the picture. ;-) We are hanging out and hitting the gym together everyday when he's in town. I've lost 15 lbs of my past relationship weight and I'm feeling great! Still work to be done but at least I'm seeing results. My new guy is a gym dude...surprising I know considering the selection of pics I post. And yes he has a few tatts and a shaved head. On top of the hotness, he's just a very caring and giving person...and it's a nice change. We both were the constant farmers in our last relationships...so I think we're both a bit unsure how to take someone else being that way with us. So far though...I'm enjoying any moment I get to see him. We spent 3 hours at the gym yesterday, then milled about grocery shopping and ended up making dinner and eating at 11pm. If I hadn't run 6 miles between the treadmill and elliptical, I'd have not eaten that late.

Woke up at my place this morning, we're not at the point of sleeping over yet, and walked my boys on the trail through the woods and just enjoyed the great weather. Hopefully after the gym today I'll have a chance to finish up some house chores, and then we may be heading into the city for a night out. He has some friends in town and I haven't gotten a totally clear idea if he's ready for me to meet them or not...and to be honest I think he's just nit sure either. I'm fine either way...just as long as he's honest with me. I'm just enjoying the fun and firtyness of it all and trying to soak it all in.

Friday Night Wearing White

Thirsty Thursday!

A little taste to wet your whistle.

Hump Day!!!

Here it is hump day and all I can think of is my someone special who's out of town for work. While we haven't "labeled" ourselves yet...I am really imagining how great it would be to continue to share time with him and be able to say I'm all his. I've honestly had no desire to call, text, or see anyone else since our first dinner date. When I'm with him I feel totally myself and he makes no effort to imply I should do anything different than that. He makes me feel safe. He gave me the best hug I've ever had two nights ago before I left his house. It felt so nice. He's so strong and yet so gentle and kind. He wrapped his built arms all the way around me while straddling me on the bed. We were clothed, so don't get dirty with your thoughts.

It was like being wrapped in armor made of the mist refined metals. He tucked his shaved head into my neck and just squeezed. It almost took my breath away...just that one hug. Imagine if I had woken up next to him and could start my day with that kind of energy and sense of strength! We've both shared with eachother how right this all feels but also how we don't want to effect the outcome by rushing into it too quickly. Of course, we rushed a bit by sleeping together the first night...and the third...lol...but there's some things that you just have to let happen when it feels so right. Right? I can not wait til he's back home and I get to see him again. I feel like each time we both get a bigger confirmation of how much we can each bring to the table and how we are enjoying this so much. Which he's actually shared in texts...which coming from such a beefy hot guy is even sweeter than anything I could have asked for.

I'm trying my best to just keep being me and not let my nerves or hopes get in the way. But how does one not think about the possibilities? Meanwhile I've begun closing off and shutting down conversations w guys I had been hanging out with and chatting with. I feel like even if something gets in the way of this Mr. Maybe...at least it's showed me what it should feel like when I first begin spending time with Mr. Right. The sheer possibilities of what could be thrill me though...it's just so amazing.

Ok...must rest. Late work day tomorrow...and hopefully a dinner date with Mr. Man. ;-)
Wishing everyone love and peace within! - Rin
