Another WOW moment
Ok this evening I had to attend a Selectmen meeting in our town and there is a gentleman who is selectman that I've know for years - althouth I haven't seen him in awhile. Well I saw him last week and he referred to me "as the young lady" and I was kind of surprised but let it go. Well as I said I had to be there again tonite and made my announcement and all was good. Then he was talking to my husband so I approached him to say hello -
and he said "Wow the more I hear you talk you sound so much like you Mother ! It's unbelievable"
I said "My Mother I didn't know you knew my Mother - how do you know her ?"
He looked at my husband and said aren't you his daughter ?
I laughed and said "No I'm his wife !"
Of course he said, "WOW I didn't even recongnize you - thought you were one of the girls. Sorry"
I told him no apoligies neccesary - he made my night !!
It still manages to amaze me !

LOl !! I just found out - a couple of weeks ago I was grocery shopping with my oldest son and we ran into the Dad of one of his friends. I said hello and chatted with him for a couple of minutes.
Last night my son says to me "Remember when we saw.....................at the grocery store ?" Well he didn't realize it was you - thought you were my girlfriend.........
Weird thing is - I think I look older since I've lost the weight..... Go figure !
