From the wrong guy though. Sigh.
I was sitting at my desk, plugging away at work. Okay probably not - I think I was IMing with my BFF but whatever, pretend I was working,
and I got a beautiful delivery. A huge, gorgeous flower arrangement. When I saw what florist it was from, had a ball in the pit of my stomach, because only R knows that is my favorite place. Sigh.
Card read: One day, we will be together again, searching for the best black & white cookies in the world! Love, R****
(Side note: have to laugh, even when I get flowers, it somehow involves food! :lol:)
I am going to attempt a pic here. It won’t be as pretty as IRL, it was taken with my cell:
Okay, not working right now, will come back to this.
Anyway, I thought we had an understanding, and it has been several weeks since he has texted/emailed/called me. He is really a wonderful person, but he’s just not the one for me. I am not going to settle. I’ve BTDT, and I deserve someone who makes me happy in every facet of my life. And maybe I will never find “the one”, but I will choose singledom over settling. I had to send the dreaded thank you but we have no future email. (I’m not mean, trust me, we’ve had this discussion face to face and via telephone MANY times! lol)
On to the good (or not so good stuff). Yesterday food was okay. Would have been great, but of course I had to sample the bread I baked for DS12’s afterschool thing. I made one traditional Irish soda bread - the REAL stuff, only 4 ingredients, not the “cake” we sell in the US that they call Irish Soda Bread. :lol: And then I also made spotted dog, which is what is sold in the US here as ISB … sugar, raisins, etc. Both came out yummy. Traditional ISB is very very plain, but I thought it would be interesting for the students in the Multicultural club to try, and DS is going to give them a little history lesson behind it, if he remembers it!
Exercise yesterday was Jillian’s Cardio Kickbox and then treadmill.
Today’s Foodage:
B: Nutrigrain LF waffles, strawberries, light syrup, coffee
S: Light pomegranate yogurt - was yummy! La Yogurt I think
L: LC Grilled Chicken Primavera (yum, one of my faves)
S: Apple
D: May be just soup and sandwich for me, I have so much to do to get ready for tomorrow so kids are getting chicken nuggets
Exercise: Firm Get Chiseled
Tonight I need to bake all the bread for tomorrow, Pistachio cake, green cupcakes, and then get all the veggies ready for dinner that is going into the crockpots (yes, multiple!) tomorrow. And I need to do major companies-coming-scrubbing. I have a super busy evening, and I am going to try not to let it get the best of me and end up skipping out on exercise.
Okay boss just walked in, better publish!

Kelly, if you go to the main journal page or even look down the side of your own blog page under updated 3fc blogs, you will see a listing of updated blogs. These are ALL of the updated blogs, not just the journalers blogs. It is a way to know who has updated until Suzanne implements the change we want that would show just journalers blogs… I never would have know you updated your blog today if I hadn’t come her, but I knew renee and Ceejay and Vicki and Liz had just by looking at the updated blog listing on the main blog page http://3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/
I wonder about settlign too. I dont expect fireworks and passion to last, like I did when I was a kid but I would like some of it.. at least in the beginning! mayeb when I am 60, I’ll change my tune and accept a companion instead of love.. I dunno

Glad you got it worked out with the blog. Your journal entries were spidered and searchable in Goolge and all the seach engines and this is no different. Spammers do show up but that is why you have to APPROVE the first comment from anyone new!

well, you can’t blame the guy for trying…LOL aw….it is hard to realize that settling just isn’t where you want to be…you are a strong woman…many ppl settle…and then are eternally searching for something to make them happy….so kudos to you!!
But, enjoy the flowers anyway…LOL
I used to do this big st patty’s day presentation with history and,of course, green food to the kid’s classes when they were in elementary school. It was fun!

Wow…this post makes me wonder, If I am the wrong guy…i mean sometimes in life you do things and make decisions endng up for the wrong reasons…I hope you are still friends with him, I can understand that you might have had to shove him away…lol, some of us guys just cant get “no” to sink in…especially when we think your wonderful…so take that as a compliment!
