7/11: Recruiting is slogging along. Some interest from a couple of guys. We only have 2 slots to fill.
I'm thinking about asking Jess to move in. It seems a little soon be we really get along very well.
7/15: "Do it. Yes, it's a little soon but from everything you've told me in these sessions it seems like a good idea. Jess is more laid back, less intense than Dee was. They are very different people. With a woman like Dee I'd say wait, but with a woman like Jess, when you feel ready, do it."
"I'm going to think about it a little while longer."
7/25: I asked her. She agreed. Her lease ends on 8/31, so good timing!
8/7: 2 on the Norton list! The two transfers, SG Earl Thom, #24, and PF Lon Brad, #33.
8/21: We offer to a Brazilian and a German, both Centers.
8/30: Jess moved in today. That's always a difficult job but we got through it. We have never had an argument. Dee and I, much as we loved each other, bickered regularly. It didn't seem to hurt the relationship though. We were both Type A, we were very ambitious, we were both control freaks...
Jess is much more laid back, "go with the flow." She's not passive, and she's not a pushover. It's not like, "I'm the boss." But she's relaxed in her approach, even when we don't agree. She doesn't necessarily give in, I give in as much as she does, but she's not aggressive about it.
We've talked about what happens if I take a job somewhere else. I've made it clear we'd both be involved in the decision.
She definitely is a career woman but she wants children. I think we should wait a year, in order to develop the relationship with just the two of us, and she's okay with that.
