This weekend has been very good.
Friday night started the weekend and I got back from my week in Chelmsford. Kay had been staying at our friends S&S as they were on a cruise in Norway and she cat and house sitting. I was to bring over fish and chips as I got back. This meant there was nobody home and I come home and get changed instead of doing it in the car. Had dinner with Kay, then back home.
Saturday morning I had arranged to visit my friend Jules to do some speaker comparisons between my speakers and candidates to replace them for the show in October. We need to focus. Jules only know Jess so great for me to be able to just get up and dress normally for the day.
Kay had chores including seeing the ancient aunt buts was coming home in the afternoon. I spend a bit too long at Jules but all was good when I got home, only this time I had to change in the car as K was already home. We went out that night for dinner yum.
I said "come back to mine for a drink" and she said "yes". It was like dating all over again. I took her back to S&S place to two starving cats. Came home and found she had left her phone at home, so off I went back to give it to her as we had arranged to go out on Sunday.
Sunday arrived and I was expecting a parcel, my meds. I had to be home for delivery so got up and dressed as Jess. Only thrown on clothes and my hair. No makeup. As soon as the parcel had arrived I changed and went to pick up Kay.
We spent quite a bit of time viewing a NT house nr Guildford called Hatchlands that contained a huge collection of keyboard. Dating from the 17c to the 19th, with providence to some of the most famous composers in their age. Including, Liszt, Chopin, Mahler, and JS Bach. Amazing instruments and all but one of the collection tuned and playable with regular concerts in the music room.
One was from the kings own private collection, one owned by the NT but all the others in the huge collection privately owned by the occupants of the house.
We intended to see the gardens and go for a walk in the massive estate grounds that surround the house, but it was raining hard (will it ever stop raining?). So we had lunch in the cafe and drove home.
I cooked a veg curry for us that I made tasty but no heat (a small amount of chilli just to get a tingle) that she ate, so could not been that bad. Then after another cuppa I took her back to S&S's place to feed the cats again.
Is this defining? Could it be best for us to live apart but see lots of each other as dates? Could I possibly be myself during these times instead of having to change? The later is probably a step too far.
Tomorrow I will get up dress as me and spend the day working, and same Tuesday but after dressing start my week of being away again till Friday. Jess is having a great time.
Hugs
Jessica xxx
