Seems to good to be true?

The other day my soututhern bell and I finally had the chance to spend most of the day together. When we first started dating it seemed like we spent almost everyday together. Of course when we were not with our children or after they had gone to bed.  However lately I’ve been working a part time job for a fire department friend who owns a landscaping company on the side and it has taken up all of my off days during the week. We ended up doing a whole lot of nothing together and it was everything I could have hoped it would be. However SB had a final to take and had to leave for about an hour, when she got back we decided to watch a movie that we had seemed to start but never finish at least three times by now.  Now mind you this was the middle of the day and as we curled up in bed we decided to get comfortable. I don’t know about you but I rest in bed only one way, in by boxers and that is it. As we lay there watching the movie and simply enjoying each others company I hear a voice coming from inside the house. It was calling out my name and as I jumped up realized it was my father’s voice calling me! I felt a sense of deja vu that took me all the way back to high school when I told my parents one day that I would not be going to church with them, all the while I had my girlfriend under the covers. Of course no more than twenty mins later my dad called out my name and opened my bedroom door to a sight that I’m sure is still burned into his eyes to this day.  Anyways, I jumped up and hopped out to the kitchen to find my dad grinning at me as I attempted to pull up my jeans. Now we were not doing anything but it was useless to convince my father other wise.  He just grinned and said “sorry”, SB came out shortly there after to meet my dad now for the first time no less! They exchanged greetings and my dad even gave her a hug. After a few word he left and I realized I had left the back screen door open as the weather was perfect that day. As my father’s SUV pulled out of the driveway I looked and SB as she looked at me……… we just started to laugh.  Well first impressions are the most important aren’t they? I’m just glad it wasn’t my mother………..

I’ve been looking at used trucks lately and I know that gas prices will not stay down forever but fuck it, I have always had trucks and the only reason I have a mid size sedan now is because I was a social worker before I was on the FD full time and drove ALOT  and couldn’t afford the gas but now I could swing it. However with the advent of SB’s and I’s relationship and the rate it is progressing I can’t have just a regular truck or even and extended cab. I think I mentioned before that she also has two boys and I we have also agreed that we want just one more child. Sooooo with out planning our whole life out I need a truck that could haul aforementioned children and stuff to go with them. I did find a sweet avalanche and am currently working out a deal on it as we speak hopefully it will pan out.

Me and my Southern Bell

My little buddy and I spent most of the day together today and I showed him how to change the brakes on the car we are getting rid of. He seemed mildly interested until the ice cream man drove by. I can’t complain life is good, I love my job, the EX and I seemed to be getting along well lately, and i’m  with a wonderful woman who seems to be far to good for me. Well……………. here’s hoping
