Thanks so much all for your support. I have to get to another meeting, but thought I'd post real quick. Yesterday went fine....H was a little "grumpy" through the evening and after we got home, but he doesnt like those things anyway. OW sat down the same row we were on, across the aisle w/her back to us, where H would have to see her to look at speaker. Oh well, I sat between them so H had to see me any time he looked towards her (now, why would H think I know exactly what I'm doing?) Intro went fine, speaker did a good job and kidded with me a couple of times as he spoke..... I have to admit I watched for interaction between H & OW (gosh, do you think they thought I might?) and I got the impression they were avoiding eye contact of any sort. H had to get up to receive an award and would have stood right in front of OW, and he didn't look at her (I know, I was watching from where I sat!). Afterwards, several co-workers, including OW's supervisor, told me I did a good job and looked great. I looked in the mirror when I got home, and actually thought "I do look good" and I'm usually very self-critical and focused on the weight I still need to lose. H left the meeting first to pick up S11 at his friends, I had to stay and tie up some loose ends....I think OW slipped out the back door before H ever left. I don't know what physical attraction there could be, honestly to me she looks as plain as an old shoe. I don't know if that's good or bad. I try to make my self as different from her as possible, don't know if that's good or bad. She's kind of "dishwater blonde/mousey brown" haired with skin about the same tone, lighter eyes and dresses really plainly. I have dark hair, real dark eyes, and light skin, and i try to emphasize that and dress a little more "sharply"....don't know if it matters or makes any difference or H even notices. But then again, maybe that's part of what's behind his "you know exactly what you're doing" comment. ANYWAY, I not only survived, I think I sailed through the evening!!!!yes!!!!!!
Now I gotta figure out quickly how to tackly Atomic MIL's vow renewal plans for Saturday. I sure have no need to watch soap operas! Thanks so much to all of you for your support. I couldnt have made it without you!
