A New Year

I have conquered bad habits.
I have paid off a debt.
I have made decisions.
I have struggled to move forward.

Last year was difficult.
Last year was a test of my strength.

This year will be my reward.

Prince Charming

A coworker wants to set me up with her nephew. Every time I see her, she mentions him. Sometimes she tells me something new about him. Sometimes she just says the same thing--how she is still trying. Every Christmas she has an open house and invites all her neighbors and family and coworkers. I stopped by for lunch. Very quickly. Her nephew was going to be there but he wasn't. I wasn't too disappointed actually. She was though.

The next time I saw her she told me that she brought in a photo of him. It was was from three years ago. Does he look the same? She says that his jaw is a little stronger, he has a few lines around his eyes from being out in the sun, and he's had so much free time recently that he's been working out more. When I saw the picture of him, it was too good to be true. Like Prince Charming in a Disney movie.

Before, I was skeptical if I would ever end up meeting him. Now I'm sure it won't happen. I can not even imagine a guy that good looking wanting me.

Falling In Love All The Time

I fell in love a little bit with a fellow who needed some help using a copier. He looked me right in the eyes and he had the biggest grin on his face. That's all it took.
