You know the area around here very well - yes Middleburg is the land of money!! However, it is a nice place to go for us middle class folks and do an afternoon stroll through the shops.
In regard to Joan, I understand exactly what you are saying. Heck my girls occasionally get in the way of my life, but then again in just a few short years I will probably be moaning about them no longer being around. Joan seems to take it a bit beyond reasonable. On our first meeting she mentioned that her youngest son (who is 17) had just returned from spending a year in Iceland completing his junior year in high school under a student exchange program. She spent a good bit of time complaining that he was now going to inhibit her gym, socializing, and work schedule. She also said she was was fearful her older son was going to get married and have children and that she just didn't want to be tied down with grandchildren right now. It just seemed strange that she centered on those types of things. Anyway, I'm not sure I'm going to make the effort to set up another date since I don't feel a huge sense of chemistry with her and so far I have made the effort for the last two meetings. Time for the woman to take charge for a change.
