For those who don't know I am a transitioning veteran and work at a university. How's that for a start, yowser. Anyway the first day of classes was this Monday and like always the first day was a zoo. New students lost, faculty trying to get their first class in realizing they had not prepared well enough, and of course my favorite, the new IT equipment doesn't work as advertised. Sorry girls and guys who are IT people, this is higher ed so anything can and will happen.
Anyway I had worked on a project for the dance department all summer and put the finishing touches on the floor just before school started so I e-mailed the head of the department to let her know it was ready. Julie and I have worked together for 20yrs off and on and the project was such she did not need to see me for the past year. Well Monday morning I was heading for the Student Union and ran into her in the hall. Of course feeling confident and comfortable for a long time I called out to her and she looked and had this puzzled look on her face. So I walked over to her and said " Julie I would like to introduce you to Teri Jean Homer". The puzzled look vanished and the light came on, OMG it is you. Girl you look really great. :) That brief moment I did not care if she stared and disected every curve, it felt amazing.
Okay that was the work day and feeling good I headed to the Legion Post home for a cocktail after work. I was there for about an hour but had to leave for chores so as I was backing out I seen the past Commander I had replaced and called him over to the car. He says to me "mam can I help you?" to which I said no but I did want to say hi. Then again it was "Holy Sh*t Teri
I did not recognize you" :eek: :), and we talked for awhile before I had to run. I guess the day was a success and the boost one gets makes the decission all that more wonderful.
So girls and guys, get out there and strut your stuff. The world is waiting. :love: :hugs: Teri
