Another Saturday spent in the yard

Have I mentioned that I love working out in my yard? This particular house has needed intense yard work. The people that owned it before me didn’t believe in a yard. It was a disaster. Today I blew the leaves off the roof of my house and my shed. Then spent a few hours cleaning up around the yard. It still looks bad in my opinion, but it is coming around. There was hardly any grass when I bought the place a few years ago. Now the entire yard is almost all nice and green. I rented it out for just over a year when I first purchased it and I have lived here for just over a year now. I need to spend a few more solid days outside and i will be close to sucess.

The cougar and I are planning on seeing a movie tomorrow afternoon. It should be nice. I have no idea what is playing. As soon as I finish up here I will go shopping through the reviews.

Dating again

I was given today off. I didn’t use it to accomplish much. I went to the grocery store and laid around the house. I did buy myself a pumpkin while I was at the store. I spent a while this afternoon carving it up.

I think it turned out pretty good.

 

 So my cougar and I went out again last night. We visited a local haunted house. We had a good time. Her potential for actually dating me has grown. On another note, “Ms Slow” and I did spend a few nice nights together, but again she has grown scared of becoming more then friends. She wants to remain friends for a while, then maybe later on get more serious. But I have to say that she is the one that pushed the relationship further along. Now I feel it may have grown sour. I hope not…. Meanwhile, the cougar and I will continue to date and have a good time.  Here is a picture of her and I from the formal last week.

OMG, what a week

Well, my fate has been decided by those who command me. I am to remain here and start up a new company inside my Battalion. I was very dissapointed with there decision. I wanted change so terribly bad. I needed it. So, with the lack of change placed in  my life back work, I have decided to make change inside my own life. More to follow on this. The assignment has the potential to make me very happy or very unhappy. Which one has yet to be decided.

“Ms. Slow” and I hung out on Thursday. I have to say it was one of the best dates of my life. We didn’t even do anything spectacular. Dinner and a movie at my place. We are going to see each other once again tonight… We have a chance once again, but I want to remain the theme of our fledgling relationship.

Last night was the formal. The event went well, but I found myself board with the same ol’ “formal.” Our unit needs some serious overhaul when it comes to events like this. My date was the “Super Cougar,” as she has been crowned by my peers. We had a good night, but there is a connection missing. Strange…. I am not sure what it is.

The Week

The past week was a challenge. It started in Europe and is ending here on my couch. Work was interesting, I have been offered two different positions. One is here in Savannah and the other is in Seattle. My boss here would prefer that I stay here and originally pitched it as the only position available. However that same evening (Thursday), his boss called him and asked that I consider a position in Seattle. I accepted the offer in Seattle. I expect to be officially given the job no later then Wednesday afternoon. It was pitched as an immediate assignment and would require me to move now, but hopfully I wll be allowed to spend Christmas with my family. We shall see.  Hopefully I will be wearing a diamond within the next two or three weeks. I will be excited and surely post when it happens. I will become a member of the Diamond Club. ha ha ha. Army stuff!

The formal is this week, Friday. I am taking the super cougar, as she has become known amongst my close friends. It should be a great time. She is also escorting me to a cocktail party thrown by my Battalion on Wednesday night. I will give you the details later on.
