Out of Town, Out of My Usual Surroundings

(We have covertly dressed Ms. Brenda in tight fitting jeans, a silky blouse & 5" heels. We have lightened her hair slightly to give her a bit of a glow. We have also had her do 30 squats daily for the last 2 months to give her booty a cute bit of enhanced roundness & lift. She is in Dallas for the day with her Texas BFF. She says she's feeling prettier than she has in a long time!
Let's see what happens when she is wearing something other than yoga pants & a T shirt)


A trip to Dallas, away from the limitation of a small town with NO Olive Garden, away from the same old - same old is a welcome change of pace. Day to day, I live in workout wear because, well, I work out a lot! Yoga pants, usually basic black, sometimes with a bit more color. Usually a grey T- shirt. Blah Blah Blah. Kinda bland. It's a welcome change to style it up a bit, when going to Dallas!

My USMC Veteran sister works 12 hour shifts, it's good to have company along on the 2 hour drive to the VA in Dallas. I'm her company! Lucky, me! We do have a good time, every time!

This time was particularly enjoyable! Hopefully, it was enjoyable for both of us!

For some reason, I felt especially good, that day. Usually, I feel rather unattractive, plain, etc. On December 23rd? I felt very beautiful!
Not only did I feel more attractive, the comments started as soon as my friend dropped me off in front so I could go into the VA Hospital.
I only rented the watermelon slushy & water!
A couple of Vet guys, looked to be around 32 - 38, complimented me, as I walked by. 
I had to tinkle so bad!
So, I smiled & graciously said, "Thank you." As  I walked into the large front entrance to the VA Hospital, people were turning their heads to look at me. I was smiling, happy, also happy that I made it to the ladies room to endow the Rolf bowl with what felt like was a gallon of mellow yellow! *smile*

Exiting the ladies room, more smiles, more looks, more compliments. If  being humble & kind made me more beautiful to others, that day, the feeling of simply being so happy to be out & about with a good friend who loves me & accepts me without judging me, it only added to my happy glow!

As she went through her appointment, I was sitting in a large, comfortable waiting area as I settled in to work on a needlework pattern, contributed further to a feeling of happiness. I was focused on my needlework. I was trying my best to appear blissfully unaware of the hot looking guy just 5 feet away, watching me. He looked to be around 28 - 38, Caucasian, light brown hair, light brown eyes, slender build
Mmm Hmm. Characteristics which appeal to me!!!
 He was trying to make eye contact, it seemed, to strike up a conversation. Although I was avoiding his gaze, it didn't deter him.

When the 2 people on either side of me were called in for their appointments & leaving 2 empty seats, I barely looked up, he made eye contact, smiled a nice, wide boyish smile which crinkled his eyes, slightly. He got up, politely asked, 
"Can I sit here? Next to you? Do you mind?"
Before I answered, he had sat down next to me. He was really, very appealing...smelled very clean! Having a very sensitive nose plus his closer proximity, umm, yeah. He told me he had been watching me, said he was really intrigued to see such a pretty girl who enjoyed doing needlework, didn't think anyone did such feminine things as sewing any more!

Funny!

We spoke with each other for 8 minutes. Just 8 minutes. In 8 minutes, he had told me his full name, where he was originally from, that. he was, indeed, in the age range I thought he was ~ perfect age!
He told me he was a US Army Veteran, at the VA Hospital for an appointment. He also asked me for my phone number & if he could call me, possibly take me out on a date in the future.

Yes, I was feeling very pretty that day!

So distracted by the beautiful needlework pattern as well as Prince Cutie-Pie, I didn't hear my phone when my GF texted me, telling me where she was, so we could meet up & head to Olive Garden!

I drove from the VA Hospital to OG and the fun with my BFF only continued! It was a really wonderful day. Good friend, good food, good times!

It's enchanting to imagine what can happen when one ventures out of their usual venue.

L8ers!

The Times of Life

Sometimes the day comes to let people go, even if you still love them, even if.....even if. Friendships are precious yet only when they are ...
