Has to be a Good One...

So, I've thought long and hard about this... I think my first official "bad" date story should be a good one.  One about a man who swore he was looking for what i was.  On our first date he actually asked me to tell him about my worst first date... Bet he didn't think he'd be my new worst date to beat. But in reality he messed up bigger than them all.  Things were actually going well, it wasn't a first date... we were much further along.  He had invited me out to join him for a work event, you could say it was more of a weekend date.  We went to the event and had a good time.  The second day he had a work gathering minus me.  I was completely okay with this (as i like my alone time) He said he'd be gone for only a couple hours and would text me when he was on his way back.  After about 4 hours passed i got dressed up and headed down to the bar (with my read high heels on and all) I texted him and told him i was waiting for him.  After about 45 mins he texted and said he was wrapping up.  
Wouldn't you know i didn't hear from him for another 2 hours!  He finally arrived... I was excited to see him in spite of waiting so long.  I really liked this guy and was excited about the potential.  We started chatting, he apologized greatly and then dropped the bomb saying...  I'm so sorry it took me so long, but my assistant was hungry so i took her to dinner. I'm sorry wait, what? You took her to dinner... UGH!!!

    I mean, really? Most D-bags are pretty easy to spot. :)

I Finally Met the Man I Never Thought I Would

 For the last ten years, my world has revolved around my three boys. I poured everything into them, my energy, my time, my heart. I became their anchor, their safe place, their constant. And as the years passed, they grew. Not just taller or older, but more independent and confident. Little by little, I began to feel that familiar shift: they still needed me, but not in the way they once did. For the first time in a decade, I could finally breathe for myself again. I had no expectations of love finding me. My life had settled into a rhythm of responsibility and quiet strength. But then, as life often does when we least expect it, it brought someone into my world who would change everything. A man finding love after loss. A man who loved deeply, truly, wholeheartedly before. Instead of feeling intimidated by the depth of his past, I found myself moved by it. The way he speaks of love, the way he honors what he once had, only makes me feel closer to him. It shows the kind of heart he...

December

December is just a day away.  December is such a busy month, and I'm just bracing myself for the speed at which it moves.  Presents to be purchased and wrapped, Christmas cards to be sent (they're ordered with just a few last minute changes to receives)  That's right, this year I'm cutting my list down (more on that in a moment). Decorations to be put up (I'm a bit behind this year) Christmas programs to be practiced (so many amazing memories with this one) Projected to be finished, Volunteering to do (this year we're making stops at Santa's workshop in downtown Naperville as well as the Ronald McDonald House and who can forget Family Christmas. This year I pulled up mt Christmas address labels from last year, after printing I realized there are a few that will NOT be receiving a card this year.  No ill feelings (maybe a few) but, you just didn't make the cut this year. I actually thought long and hard about this (as posted before) I thought I would be t...

Seriously...

This weekend I made reservations to celebrate a good friends birthday.  It's always hard in the month of December to do anything besides the "Holidays".  But, I wanted to make sure the day didn't pass without her feeling special.  To make the day extra special she invited a few other friends and their children.   We finally got settled in and I noticed this guy, he had noticed our table too.  I kept racking my brain trying to figure out how I knew him.  I playing over my students dads, my boys friends dads, other dads at school, my social circle but I kept coming up short.  I finally said something to my friend and she said, Oh he's on the dating apps.  (One of the first things I often do is check fingers for rings to eliminate that as a possibility...he had a ring).  I said but, he has a ring.  She said, exactly.  This is what were dealing with.  The man was clearly out with family and extended family but is spending his ...
