I have 25 journals that I have filled over the years. I love(d) writing in my journal till now…
This has become my journal of sorts and looking back I wish I had saved all my drafts so I could print them out but live and learn. So since this is my journal I need to do some catching up for ya’ll.
Last Sunday I saw Mr. Ted at church but I did as the matchmaker told me and kept busy, happy and flirty this meant I did not get to talk to him other than “hello”. But I wasn’t worried because that night we had cookies and conversation a genius Sunday night social created by none other than Mel! Any who so I went and I flirted and walked around the boy talking to everyone I could. I tell ya being so social is hard work and exhausting but worth it! So I was sitting in the Arizona room enjoying the company I was with laughing extra loud and smiling extra big and he came! We had a fun conversation that night it was fantastic! I found out he bakes bread or did as a kid that is how the kids would earn some money. So cute right? We realized we both played the trombone in high school and we both love to sing.
So side note if I had a list of the man of my dreams I always wanted one that can sing and really haven’t dated many that could…just sayin it is a nice bonus!
I could not have had a better night and I worked on touching him as we talked. I have a hard time with that I really have to think about it!
The next night was FHE I drove with the girls that live in the house below my apartment. Did it again talked to other looked happy, busy and flirty and like a moth to a flame he came again! We had a great night we talked to a couple people near us but mostly just us. We realized that I know his step mom from a place I used to work. I think I even remember her getting married to Ted’s dad. Small world!
I started doubting Monday night that maybe we were getting in the “friend zone” I know it to well and I started to freak. I texted my matchmaker and told her we needed to talk before Saturday she assured me we would. So the week goes by and I never heard from him and I felt like he would never call.
Friday night I am driving home from Cate’s house. I had spent most the morning cleaning my apartment and trying to get in order. The way it is set up is to get to the bathroom you have to go through my bedroom and I knew if I ever wanted to invite someone over my room had to be clean J so goo motivation. Any ways after lunch with my adorable preggos cousin I went to Cate’s then was taking my time getting back home ot finish the job when I got a phone call …..from TED!!! I didn’t answer! Never answer the phone on a Friday night when it is from a boy. You must seem like you are busy and not sitting around waiting for his call. Which I was pretty busy and definitely not sitting around. I texted the matchmaker to be sure I did the right thing she told me I was awesome and did good., She then said to call him back in the morning and keep it short. I called him back around 9 am and no answer and then he never called me back I was devastated! The ward had a temple session at 2:30pm I knew he was going to be there so I was nervous but the matchmaker just said her same solid advise be happy, busy and flirty! On my way to the temple I sang a bunch of hymns and prayed for happiness because I wanted to be sad he hadn’t called me back but I trusted the matchmaker and I knew she was on my side.
The session was wonderful! Ted was in the Celestial room first he was all the way on the other side I went over the the Bishopric and their wives and hugged them and other members of the ward filtered over fortunately they were being fun and happy so I was able to be all smiles and over he came! After everyone trickled away it was just us he told me had gone hiking that morning and had been out of range all morning. He got my message as he was pulling up to the temple. He then asked me if I would like to go to dinner with him before the baptism that evening. He was so cute just all smiles!
We met outside he temple and again all smiles it was adorable! We dropped my car off then we went to Chipotle which apparently is both of our favorites! I seriously eat there 2 to 3 times a week!
We had great conversation we talked a lot about out missions. Missions are so fantastic because even though we went to different places it is the same because we were doing the Lord’s work! He served In Chilie. We went to the baptism which was awesome I love baptisms so much! They help me refocus in my own life and recognize the beauty of the gospel!
After wards they had refreshments but Ted said he wanted ice cream! We ended up going ot Albertson and picked out mint chocolate chip and brought it back to my place! He didn’t stay too long he was beat from the hike but it was a wonderful 2nd date. I like that the dates are kept short I think it leaves us both wanting more!
He asked if he should take the ice cream or leave it here and I told him if he leaves it here he has to come back to eat it with me and he chose the latter! We then promised each other we would go to choir if the other one did!
This morning we both went to choir! I sat with him before church started till I had to sit on the stand for my talk.
So needless to say things are exciting! A little slow but good! I can’t wait to see him tomorrow night at family home evening we are carving pumpkins and it should be a fun!!!!!!!
Sorry my blogs are getting longer and longer! But I don’t wanna miss a thing!
