Three Things Thursday

1. I am back in the land of the blogging after the "Great Southern Snow of 2011." LOL We got 11 inches of snow at my house ...honestly the most I have seen in my life. I loved it! We had a blast playing in it! Tommy and I played like little children. Today was my first day back to work, but most of the schools are still closed. I will try to post some pictures of the snow this weekend :)

2. Today, a lady that my mother used to work with came in the library and was asking about my mother's boyfriend. My Dad passed away 3 years ago and this is still a very touchy subject for me. She started by asking if my Mother was still dating "that good looking man." I said yes, and tried to go back to my work...she then asked something more about him, and I gently told her I didn't know that I had only met him a few times (and honestly those few times weren't wonderful..) and she said, well I thought you liked him. I told her I really didn't know him (at this point, I was blinking back tears)...and she ended the conversation by asking if I thought they would get married soon. I honestly wanted to scrape this woman's eyes out. Or scream at her... or something! I was obviously uncomfortable with the conversation and she just kept on... not only that, but I was at work...and though I could have excused myself, because of the weather, I had no one else working in my department, and hated to leave because we were somewhat busy. * I think I just needed to vent about this*  I still feel like I could break into tears at any moment.

3. I have been trying to cut out alot of the processed foods, but during the snow,I didn't stay firm with this. I can totally tell a difference. Hopefully, I will get back into the swing of the more whole foods in the next few days :)

  1. Enjoy the snow! I'm glad it didn't hit Chicago that bad! It's nice to have a little break from it.

    And that really stinks about #2, I'm so sorry - some people just don't know when to leave something alone, and they're usually terrible at taking hints!
