IJWTS Don and I are FINALLY going to attempt our Date Day, which we've had to postpone three times already lol. We're heading to Philadelphia to visit The Franklin Institute, The Academy of Natural Sciences (my animal geek must be sated), and have lunch and dinner at places that Don picked out I'm still not 100% recovered from being sick, so please pray that I have the energy to truly enjoy the day, without coughing fits or any of that nasty jazz. Thanks CFers

IJWTS I hate it when I wake up with sappy love songs stuck in my head.

Have you ever been in the middle of a loud, fun party and sat there looking around and then you see chuck77 realising you're the most luckiest person the world?

Suddenly your reality has wisked you in the middle of the ocean with a heart shaped life vest while those around you are setting sail in the opposite direction trying to actually get away from chuck.

LOL! You're a dork.

IJWTS - Sometimes your opinion of someone isn't everyones elses opinion of that someone. It's a hard lesson learned (that I learned.)

People are mean-spirited, ugly in nature, and can be down-right rude; I know that all too well, I know I have to be sometimes (the down-right rude part). Always learn to expect this from everybody, and guard your heart The Big Guy upstairs will do the rest

Great advice, thank you

This is true. If one person thinks one way about me, I think that must be how everyone thinks. But it's not true at all. Thanks for the reminder

 

[LadyOfMystery]

You're welcome, and it's certainly not true. I was actually the opposite though For a long time I thought everyone liked me or enjoyed my company and was startled (literally) when I found out this wasn't so. I dont mean to sound conceited, it's just how I was. It took me a long time though in general to realize a few peoples opinions of what I am, or how I act isn't everyones opinion of me (negatively or postively). Once though you realize that not everyone is going to be the same, it gets easier.

Thank you anon for the blessings.


For the late few days I've had dreams about being at work and food.

 

[Saucy]

Going to take my niece out to lunch today. Subway? Taco Bell? A sit-down place?? Not sure

 

[Nom De Guerre]

How old is she?

I take my nieces out to eat all the time, I usually try to get her to eat healthy foods; nothing from a fast-food restaurant, create good habits man

 

[Verve]

IJWTS- Afternoon naps are lovely.

 

[Saucy]

[Nom De Guerre]

Well *stretch* lol better go get ready for a day of out and about, time to scout

Fight night tonight, that'll be sweet

 

[Nom De Guerre]

She's 15.

Yeah, my oldest niece is 13; take her to sit and eat some real food man

 

[Saucy]

This is all good advice that I think I need to take heart. Jennie, I've always been the opposite of you. I've always assumed (and still do, to be honest) that most people don't like me for some reason or another. I think it's because I was never well liked as a child and was constantly told negative things about my character (and my physical appearance, but that's another issue for another day! ). So I guess it still always surprises me when people say nice things to or about me, especially comments like, "Oh you're so nice/sweet/friendly/likable/lovely/etc." My reaction in my head is always "Really? How? Whyyy??" I don't believe it, probably because it contradicts what I was always told about myself (and therefore, accepted as truth). But this advice I think is good. And I think I need to listen to it, apply it, and take it to heart. So thanks for the excellent advice!

 

[Saucy]

Oh Rose. You really are nice, sweet, friendly, likeable, lovely, loving, kind, beautiful, sweet, caring, amazing, funny, stunning and loveable.

IJWTS- that I have a theory that living by the ocean helps keep the stomach flu away. I think it's something about the salt in the air. When we lived inland, there would be a nasty stomach flu that would go around every year. And everyone I knew would get it. Now that we've lived by the ocean for the last 3 years, only one person in my family got it one year and it didn't last that long.
