Saturday morning

Well, as my loyal readers know...I have a date this afternoon. And since it is with a complete stranger, I'm a little nervous. I even went to my pastors yesterday afternoon and asked for some advice...I mean, they're "mom" and "dad" and I totally screwed up the last time I tried to date...although to be honest, he wasn't very honest. I only got to talk with Mrs. Pastor and she said, 'Keep your eyes open" Good enough. Pastor came in at the tail end and got in on the conversation and I think I've already screwed up some....cuz he asked if we were going with another couple...ooops, uhm...no...we're meeting at his sis's house and then going up to Doc's and I thought that would be safe enough/public enough. Although to be honest, his question made me feel protected and watched out for. I decided not to doll up for this, though. I'm dressed nice, I did curl my hair a bit with the curling iron, and that's about it.

of course, I'll let all of you know what happens.

ok. Going to go play the weekend game a bit before I go on the clock.

Good luck on your date. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, but I doubt you need any luck.

The paster and his wife sound like lovely, protective people. How lucky you are to have them for temperature checks at times like this.

Popped in from Michele's. Enjoy!

Aww, good luck on your date!! You know, it's funny, as nerve-wracking as those first dates are, if they result in a lasting, loving, long-term relationship those are the times you look back on with such fondness and remember the electricity and newness. I hope you have a really great time!

Here from Michele's :)

I'm here from Michele's. I have to get that out of the way first or I forget..

I hope you have a wonderful time on the date though I agree with Mr. Pastor, double with someone you know on dates with people you don't know. It not only protects you but also, if there are uncomfortable lulls in conversation you have a friend there to help you out during those first awkward moments with a person you don't know.

Either way... good luck and you are lucky to have the Pastors in your life.

Like the others are saying, Ciera, good luck on the date. Hopefully this fellow will be better than the last guy. Honest, at least.

Michele sent me, and that ensures that I'm safe too!

Ponderisms

This comes from an email from one of my many sisters. Some are just toooo funny!!! PONDERISMS 1.) I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes. 2.) Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. 3.) The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement. 4.) Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway. 5.) There are two kinds of pedestrians: the quick and the dead. 6.) Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing. 7.) Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. 8.) The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth. 9.) Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs. 10.) Have you noticed since everyone has a ca...

Too Soon

"I spoke too soon" Well....sort of. Here's a brief rundown of my first 'drop off run' - u know, taking the kids home. I get all the kids on the bus, knowing that one girl needs to go to daycare, I automatically head for the one she went to last year...as I pull up, she says, "I don't go there anymore...I go to the new daycare..." Uh-oh. Now, this little girls a little more mature than the rest, so I believe her. I tried calling the other driver on the handheld radio to see if he was still at the center...no answer....tried calling the boss...no answer...I went back to the Center...no one could see the bus becuase of the ambulance, so no one could come out. So I cart the girl around the entire hour long route.........at the first stop, I sent a message through the mother to the Center....and then there was a bee on the bus!!!! I killed it, superhero that I am. One girl wants to "swing from the chandleirs"...if the bus had them. Oh m...
