Lisii Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Went on a date last night (been on a few with this lovely man - but have not told family yet) casually enjoying the company when my Mum, Dad, niece, Aunt & Uncle walk into the restaurant... die! - the held up their serviettes when my date wasn't looking with a score out of 10 - lol! and came over to introduce themselves! Grateful to my dad who at the end of the night came up to the table and gave us $50.! .. lol (the fact he is a stingy man and both my date and I are professionals and in our mid 40s! lol) Embarrassed no end, but grateful that I have a family with a fantastic sense of humour and my date was entertained and amused by this! - My date asked if the $50 was my Dowry.... haha - Grateful for my date too! Looking forward to this coming weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sara-pezzini Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Ah that's such a cute and funny story! Made me smile! I'd be absolutely mortified as well but it makes for a great story when you're married 50 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpottiOtti Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share Posted January 18, 2016 Last night I cooked dinner for my boyfriend and one of his friends, and afterward he came up to me in the kitchen and said, "I'll clean this up later", and then he actually did. At like 2 in the morning, he did all of the dishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheetarah Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 My son's speech therapist. I don't precisely know how they are doing it, but there has been a significant change in his speech and patterns. His OT noticed it right off the bat. She said, oh my god, so many good words and used spontaneously! And I've been listening to him more closely, and yes...There's a difference. Another thing that probably drives most parents batty, but makes my heart swell considering he never did it - We were sitting and playing with play-doh. He was making "smoothies" with play doh pressed into logs and sticking them in the play doh container. And he starts tugging on my arm going "mommy! mommy! look, look. Mommy!!!!!" and didn't relent until I looked. He never showed me what he was doing before. He didn't engage me like that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dias Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Grateful that i was blessed with great parents, grandparents and a great brother .

imsuperman Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Today a coworker approached me with a quick hitter in front of everyone saying I did something wrong, and before I had a chance to retort, she ran off back to her desk. I was pissed. It turned out I was right and she was wrong, but the manager sitting across from me could tell I was angry and told me a funny story when I got back from grabbing water. Thanks for being a bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucia Amman Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 My belly looks slimmer today. I've started to eat healthier since january but a weekend away made bloated. I'm glad to see my belly shrunk since last monday! My new 'diet' starts with a smoothie every morning and it's giving me so much energy and leaves me less hungry throughout the whole day! I'm super glad that something so easy to do (making a smoothie) creates such a positive change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
