Crossing off #3...

*Sorry about the redeye in these photos...my camera only deleted the red eye in a couple eyes. I don't know why...

On Wednesday I got to mark off #3 on my list of 35 things. I met Kado from Our Life In Perfect Cadance for lunch at Cheddars. She and her family are visiting friends for Thanksgiving. I was SO nervous, but this is what my list is all about...stepping outside my comfort zone. Would she like me in real life? Would we have things to talk about? Would she regret agreeing to have lunch? (Yes, I have issues)

I had to bring Cutie and Wild Child with me...I was praying they were on their best behavior. I think they did very well, but you could tell when our time limit was up! Kado and her friend (I can't remember her name and it is driving me nuts) arrived first. Let me just say now...if you thought Kado was pretty on her blog...she is even prettier in person. Oh to be that thin...
She is also as nice as she is beautiful. I immediately relaxed and I don't think I remember tasting anything I ate...I just wanted to talk and get to know her better. The hour and 15 minutes went by way too fast. She did tell me something about myself that I didn't know...I thought my WV accent was disappearing since we moved...evidently I was wrong. LOL! It is odd to hear someone's voice that you have only seen online.
Thank you Kado for the birthday gift and lunch...next year it is my treat!

How fun! I'm meeting a bloggy friend on Saturday. It feels kind of like a blind, doesn't it? I make myself so nervous. Glad you guys had a fun time.

Oh good for you! Other than my sis-in-law Anna, I have never met any of my bloggy friends, and I think that would be so great. I personally would LOVE to meet you for drink or lunch. Who knows, maybe someday! :-) Hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving.

tiki_lady said...

wow, way fun, I want to do this someday. I have the same insecurities. Sometimes, they cause me to cancel because the stress levels get to high!

Stopping by to say hello. Any blog friend of Kado's is a blog friend of mine...

That Kado is a keeper eh? Lucky both of you. She got to meet you, you got to meet her. All the fun is happening out on the east coast. Maybe I need to head out that way
