Happy Monday all!!  Been a rough few days for me.  I went out with some friends to a karoake bar on Thursday and had a great time and did not make a fool out of myself by singing in front of everyone.  (I sang back up from my seat, and I was terrific!!)  smiley-tongue-out.gif  Stayed out too late, but did not drink too much!!  I was proud of myslef, because I could have easily jumped off the deep into a bottle of something!!  I woke up about 2:30 a.m. Friday with a fever and vomitting.  I only lasted about 1 1/2 hours at work Friday morning and had to go home.  Slept and got sick all day long.  Had a yard sale Saturday, which was very difficult for me!!  It was very hard watching strangers pick thru things that belong to my mother and then take them home.  It was an emotional day and I cried all day!!  I received an invitation to the movies from a guy.  I went to the movies with him.  I was very pleased that he didn't try to hold my hand or put his arm around me or kiss me.  I am very old fashioned, no contact on the first date.  I was thankful that he respected that.  I told him I just wanted to be friends, that is all I can offer him.  He said he will take whatever he can get....what is that supposed to mean?  I am distancing myself from that situation.  Kinda makes me remember why I never was big on dating to begin with.  Never have gone out with a bunch of different men, never really dated.  I have no clue what to do!!  smiley-embarassed.gif  Oh well!!  All in good time!!

I got into a fight my brother on the phone last night.  He didn't come to the service for mom and now he wants all of her belongings and her money.  I told him there was no money and that most of the things he wants belong to James.  My brother is a jacka**!!  Complete and total jacka**!  The conversation ended as well as it could.smiley-yell.gif  I just ignore him for the most part!  But when I go to San Antonio in a couple of weeks I have to see him and give some of the stuff mom had put aside for him and for my niece and nephew.  Not gonna be fun!  I did tell him I was not going to go thru the  boxes, I am having a difficult enough time doing it here.  If there was something he is unhappy about he can call me later about it.  He just said whatever Jennifer!!!  That is when we hung up and I called my special friend...

He always cheers me up and makes me laugh.  I still have no idea how in the world this man is single!!!  Too bad he lives so far away.............smiley-wink.gif

Happy day to all!!

I sorry you had such a hard time the past few days! I can imagine how tough it\'ll be to give anything of your mom\'s over to your brother, when in the back of your mind you know all he is going to do is try and get what he can for it. Thats tough, I\'m not sure I could hand anything over to him knowing that!

Don\'t worry about the dating thing. Take your time with it, lay down the ground rules ahead of time to make yourself feel comfortable, and those that are worth a second date are the ones that\'ll respect them. And if you\'re not ready to date, then don\'t.

Hope you\'re having a good day. Feel better! Smile! x

ps. Pink type is hard to read with my old eyes.
