08-10-22 Man stuff
I was amused by waking to man items in my bathroom. One was left behind last week and one is Sheldons who is currently staying here. I admit that man reminders are lovely. If only a handsome single man of my dating range would show up! These younger men and I are having amazing depths of conversation, they are sexy as can be and yet… my position as hostess and my age, likely seen by them as beyond keeps me in Uber control. It is funny how many of the men show up indoors barely dressed. One came out of the shower only in his towel, another shows up shoe and shirtless, hot as fuck. I had a good laugh when a friend said that was an invitation. I just think it is more likely that two things come into play. They see me as too old to be a prospect and the age range has total body acceptance, therefore lack of clothing is not a signal for anything but sun screen.
I had a pretty good day, got a lot done, paid and unpaid. The plan was to go kayaking with a group, following friends out to Lazy Lake. The plan was also to meet Shannon and Teri at the Blind Pig for wings and a bevie first. I was having a great time finally getting time to hang with the ladies and having a good time so I decided to skip the kayaking. That was a good plan as I got home to have a great visit with Sheldon and make a plan for him to potentially stay here through to December as he is a pipe fitter on a local project. He would stay in the trailer as long as is weather comfortable and then I would give him a monthly rate to use the den. I think I could handle that with some adjustments to my routine. He is out for work before my alarm so that helps, it would mostly be my nighttime routine… may have to use earbuds to fall asleep to the TV or podcasts. We shall see.
I had to text Mary Lynne, my friend on Salt Spring as years ago four girlfriends went to see Nearly Neil at Artspring on Island. The memory of Annie reaching into her purse during the intermission and pulling out her home phone made me literally laugh out loud. Those were such good times when I had a woman posse.
