Wow! this is a turn up for the books - my husband just rang and asked if I was OK, I said yes. I had bought him a family pack of tickets to the car races for his birthday, (which had been ordered before d-day). Anyway, the race is this weekend and he asked if me and the kids would still like to go with him. I immediately said that we would enjoy that very much, thankyou. (I was expecting him to invite the kids, but not me...). THEN - he asked if we would like to meet him for dinner tonight!!!! I nearly had to pick myself up from the floor. He sounds a bit down - I wonder what's happening with OW? Hmmmm<P>OK - I am definately going to put my best, bestest Plan A into action tonight and be charming, beautiful, witty, friendly, irresistable....<P>hugs, Paint.

Go for it...

...do you think wearing my tiny black mini-skirt would be just TOOOOO obvious?...

Go for it, Paint! Don't over-do it. Remember to be consistent through the period including the car races.<P>My rule of thumb - hope for the best, but expect less.<P>WAT

Paint, could it be that he's finding out that OW isn't so great after all? <P>Wear something that makes you look and feel FABULOUS and knock him dead!! Go for it! He won't know what hit him . . . LOL!!

Paintbox,<P>WAT has hit it on the head. Something, suggestive and definitely your/his favorite perfume. Don't forget the perfume, but don't wear anything to "blatant".<P>Now for the car races, well powerful engines and good looking women. Now we are talking. Go for WAT's advice here. Should be warm, shorts are good, etc... You get the idea here. OH! and do wear your best Plan A. <P>Go for it Paint. One last thing, when the kids are out with you, keep them on track. I have forgotten their ages, but I do recall that they do occasionally annoy H. So if you go to a nicer restraunt, take something for them to snack on, and perhaps play with (coloring books, game, something). You cannot expect them to enjoy lingering over drinks and coffee, so plan for them.<P>Same at the races, make sure to keep them busy and find things that interest them. Then be with your H. Make sure you touch him and hold his hand if he will let you.<P>This is a very interesting development. <P>Good Luck,<P>JL

You sound so giddy and happy!!!! Yayyyyyyyy!!!!<P>Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!!<P>Snow

Thanks! Perfume - yes - I'm a trained aromatherapist, and I have a killer aphrodisiac blend LOL! Jasmine, Sandlewood, Rose...<P>Did you know that Cleopatra soaked the sails of her ship in Jasmine oil to lure Mark Antony...<P>Oh goodness, I can't let myself get too excited about this - got to keep calm, it might mean nothing - it might mean that he's got that 'bad news' I've been waiting to hear, and he wants me in a public place so I can't give him an angry reaction... I'm going to meditate, shower, meditate again...pray even!!<P>love Paint.

OK, didn't have time to meditate after all, (took too long to put the warpaint on!!!). I'm ready...black mini-skirt and all!...wish me luck you guys, and keep your fingers crossed! I'll let you know what happens...<P>hugs, Paint

Lots of luck Paint, knock him dead!!<P>

And don't forget the AM update -- no matter what! <P>Good or bad or middling, we're here...<P>Snow
