Prudie Day

Excited to read Prudie later.  Today is a hurry up and wait day at work so trying to be productive while I wait for stuff that I'll need to work on urgently as soon as it's in.  The woman who cooks at the boys daycare made G some of his favorite rice pudding (I didn't even know he liked that, lol) and N's teacher is going to drop it off for him when they take the kids on a walk this morning.  I'm so thankful we have such a supportive and awesome group of teachers/parents/admins.

I'm leaving early today to attend the visitation for one of my best friends dad.  He had an emergency quadruple bypass last month, then a stroke during his recovery and passed last week.  It was so fast and they were very close, i know it's really hard for her.  

What's up with everyone else today?

    That’s so sad @Casadena.  Sorry for you & your friends loss :( but LOL at not knowing G liked rice pudding (That one is a hit or miss from me. I know a restaurant that makes it well though). Yay for a supportive community!

    i can’t wait to read people’s problems that (sometimes) are bigger than mine lol

    In dating news, I’ve been talking to about three more guys that I’d be willing to meet, however no indication they want to meet me? Just talk so far… and we’re around the 2 week mark. My friend said to not ask them out and wait… and I tend to do that in the past… but it’s also 2022 and why can’t I? Rejection is my #1 reason.  Not sure why these guys joined a dating app to find a penpal though? 

  • @CharmedPam, if you're interested, ask.  I always told people, you're at a no already...asking will either change it or make it remain the same, so it's not really rejection.  I am backing off the dating thing.  I was thinking about it, and it feels so very odd to me to have a goal of looking for a relationship right now.  So, I feel like that means I'm not really ready just yet.  

    I'm so excited for tomorrow.  I have a new purse coming, the coffee mug I ordered for a friend, food, a new album, and probably something else.  Should be quite a nice little special haul at my door tomorrow night.

    Otherwise, SSDD.  I have NO motivation at work right now and I'm not really trying to fight it off either.  I'm just really tired and there's a lot going on in my personal spheres right now; work just feels like a back seat.
  • @Casadena wow that's fast and so unfortunately :( You have such a support group though!!

    @CharmedPam I'm with friend mostly. At least wait and see about any indication about any wanting to meet up.


    So BK's covid vax is booked! :) So far I've heard that there's little reaction to them. She was extra tired after her normal shots. I booked it on a Saturday so she has extra recoup time. It's right before M is on vacation so he's anticipating the Monday to a "chill at home" day in case she's tired or something.

    I'll admit I'm nervous. I know for younger crowd they're avoiding this, but I had awful reaction because I mixed {Pfizer then Moderna}
    I'm still really anxious about her vax though :\ 
  • N has his vax appointment next weekend and i'm really excited to have a little less worry about sending him toschool while G is so sick!
  • I refuse to speak to people on dating apps more than a day or two. If they don’t ask me and I’m interested I go with a “free for a drink Thursday” and if we don’t make a plan unmatch. Two weeks is so much time invested in a stranger!
  • @CharmedPam I like @STARMOON44's approach and I would do something similar in how I asked them out.  Just "hey i'm available at this time, want to meet up?" 
  • I say ask them @charmedpam- why waste your valuable time chatting if they don’t want to meet. Their loss! 
  • Work is, well I don’t know, still tough. Very tense. Feeling exhausted. So ready for the weekend. Not that we really have plans but still I need a break. 
  • @CharmedPam I missed the online dating scene but I would do something like @STARMOON44 suggested. At least get something on the books.

    @Casadena I loved the way the cook at my preschool made sweet potatoes. My mom didn't take it well when I told her I liked Lily's potatoes better than hers lol.

    I have had a good week. I rode a horse the last two days and am so Sore! now I am at the Legoland hotel with the family. Our room is "adventure" themed and has a bunkbed. DS is out of his mind he loves it so much. Dinner was meh but tomorrow is the water park. 
    I am trying not to let the thought that I left the iron on ruin my time.
  • @CharmedPam, I agree with the others.  Suggest something casual, like coffee or drinks.  Back in my single days, I definitely cut guys loose if they were too "hemming and hawing" about either meeting or lining up a second date.  Agreeing to meet someone for 1-2 hours is such a low bar.  If a guy isn't sure he wants to meet me after chatting/texting a few times or a phone call, then his wishy-washy ass needs to move on because I need a confident man who can at least make minor decisions.

    I'm sorry, y'all for my Prudie neglect!  Between work, checking tenant applicant references, and responding to potential tenants...it's been a busy morning!  But it's finally lunch time, so I can at least tell work to go take a hike.  Prudie coming up.
