I'm sitting here on the couch alone.  A little bit bored and a lot restless.   I didn't get to hiking this weekend as I wanted.  Mother nature had different plans for the weather than letting me hike.  Ah well, it was a good weekend.  I played board games with the boyfriends family.   I really enjoy the time spent with them.  He has 3 younger sisters...still in their teens.  It was the 2 youngest, his mom and dad and he and I.   They cheered that I won a game.... my boyfriend usually wins.   He accused them of bringing in a ringer to beat him.  We then played pictionary and I saw perhaps the best version of love birds I have ever seen.  Who knew they looked like dragonflies with stingers.   At one game his dad would sneak an extra space when no one was looking, I saw him once.  He winked, I smiled and no one was the wiser.  All in all it was 4 hours of games.  It is something I wished I had with my immediate family but am happy I have with his.   They always make me feel like I am one of them.  They have for awhile, even before we were dating.   I completely love feeling at home with them around. 

 

I also got the chance to have a very real and true conversation with another person here.   I am grateful for the talk that we had back and forth. 

 

Now the countdown to the weekend has begun again.  In the meantime I will do my best to just relax and enjoy the moments I can during the week.
