I have an idea of my next little item to write here (when I have time)...kinda a Santa Wish list of my own. The holidays are such a whirl of activity, it is difficult to find the time to sit down and put my musings down in this journal.
I walked Boonie the dog to pick Brian up from school yesterday. Now that I am feeling much better I have started walking. I'd like to join a gym and do some weight lifting, but baby steps....baby steps...
The walk from my x husbands office to Brian's school and back gives me a good 50 minute stretch of the legs. The children at the school love Boonie so it makes for a nice little visit for her. Now, to hear Brian tell his version of school he has few friends and no girls like him.
HA!
Yesterday while walking to his class these two girls walk by me and one whispers to the other "That's Brian Cox's mom and Brian's dog!" They both look up "Hi Mrs Cox can we pet Brian's dog?" "Sure" I answer, not having the heart to correct them and say I am not Mrs Cox (never have been for that matter). While petting the dog, one of the girls says "Brian is the nicest boy in school" and she blushes. Brian walks up and the girls giggle and walk away.
"Who are those girls"? I ask him. "Huh"? he answers. "Those two girls over there" I point to their backs. "Oh that's ____ and ____". "They are cute, I think they think you are too..." He rolls his eyes "No they don't". and looks at me like I am nuts. Meanwhile kid after kid is walking by "Hi Brian, hi Brian, hi Brian..." one after the other.
I have to laugh because he is like me in this area. My girlfriends often say to me "Wow, that guy is flirting with you". "He is"?... (then I want to leave).
Perception of our own world is interesting...

God when will the shopping end????
