I was so excited to meet Annette. She was so gracious to come in my direction for lunch. We met at a small little Italian restaraunt in Humble- (said Umble) true Texans do not say their H-(another topic)
Funny- we both got there- she must have beat me to the restaraunt and they sat her right away. I get there thinking that she had not arrived, and they seat me, on the other side of the restaraunt- where I could not see her. After like 10 minutes, I thought-hmm wonder if she got lost or could not find the place- inspite of GPS. So I call- and she is sitting on the other side of the partition!
I was so excited and nervous I could not even eat! I was truly out of my element. I talked, and talked and talked!!!( I truly hope I did not scare her away!) She is truly beautiful inside and out! Did you all know she goes to Beth Moore's church? I thought that was an awesome tidbit of information!(haha) We talked about our husbands, our children, moving to Texas, just about everything under the sun. I was so sad when it had to end- I could not believe the time went so fast. I was so beside myself- that our dear Annette pick up lunch and I never thanked her- Isnt that so RUDE of me? I feel terrible- absolutely Terrible!!!!! I hope I really did not blow it with her! The icing on the cake- I had prepared a small bagged gift for her- and left it at home, and did not even remember it till I was pulling out of the parking lot! BOY do I feel stupid!
So tell me ladies have you ever had moments in your life where you feel like you really messed it all up with someone?
Time to SHARE!!!! (help me feel better!)
Well, first of all, if you were rude, I can't imagine you on a good day! You were such a delight to me, and what joy to finally put a sweet face and voice to the beautiful heart I've met on your blog. The good company, and good food btw, was such fun Friday! We'll have to meet again soon. Love you, Annette
ReplyDeleteRumor has it y'all had a great time! Sorry to use that Texan word. It just seemed to come out naturally! I'm so glad you had such a good lunch! I don't think you could be rude if you tried to be! I love your new picture and it's definitely not scary! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a nice Saturday!
Love,
Angie xoxo
p.s. The shirt looks great on you! How sweet that you had your picture taken with it! I'm so glad you were able to enjoy a little something from the Siesta Fiesta... See, I told you you'd be there in Spirit!
Angie,
ReplyDeleteHow could you have been rude? Been there done that. I met a friend for the first time a couple of years ago and Memphis, and all I could do was hug her and cry...
Angie you are so beautiful to me inside and out. Rude? NEVER, It was all a case of nerves.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see you out with friends Angie, I wish it was me!! (smile,smile)...
ReplyDeleteLove the hair!
