Day with Mr C
Dear Diary,
I seriously debated cancelling the day out with Mr Comedy. After our talk last night he said he would meet me at 10:30 am and we could all go to the beach, kids and all. I just kept telling myself let it happen, just for once let something just flow and happen.
Well he arrived. First off he said hed drive, which is nice, being driven and his has a nice Toyota 4Runner. Sunroof and all so it was just nice driving through Malibu with the air blowing on our faces.
He is so charming and such a people person. He had me close my eyes when he arrived. I was like oh no he got me a gift! And he placed a fuzzy puppy stuffed animal in my hands. He said ” I remember how you said you liked snuggly things” My kids saw it and they both thought it was the cutest thing and each held it while we drove. He is sooo good with the kids. He brought all this stuff, to play with at the beach and went and played with the kids. I just sat there in smiles watching. He brought baseball and gloves, volleyball, frisbee, and a little football. We ended up playing a game on the shore all of us, kind of like teams and keep away, I havent played like that in so long, my kids we laughing so much and smiling, and so was I.
We laid on the blanket and talked. We have so many similar viewpoints on odd things its wild. I mean my God he knows all Richard Marx’s music and guess who he put in the CD player of his vehicle when he picked me up? That is just way too thoughtful!
His mom called and sister while we were out. Hes from NJ, mom and dad are there. And his sis is Italy, she is in Opera Singer. Its so weird, just listening to a man talk to family, say I love you, Im not used to seeing men having ties like that. Its wonderful to watch.
We sat outside after we got back, he saw I was burned and went and put Aloe Vera on me he had of his own without me even asking. He just took care of it. We sat for a good long while, talking about our lives and change, he said that he has had a rough year, but meeting me was a awesome new change. I told him Im really glad I met him, that this is so weird for me because Im dont really know men like him. When you are in a abusive relationship, one that is controlling for so long, you think just the smallest things with the next person are an improvement. This guy, granted Im just getting to know him, but as I said, when you feel you can bring him home to Mom and feel he would be great with your kids. Well Ive never known that feeling. Not even with my Ex.
