Ok, so about my compliment....
I go to drop my students off at gym, and the gym teacher says to me you were just paid a compliment, and I was like um ok.... by who? and she told me the name but I didn't recognize it, so she proceeded to tell me who the lady was. She is one of the parishioners at the Church and we had Mass with the kids this morning. Well I guess after mass the lady walked over to the gym teacher and asked is she had seen me because she wanted to tell me how great I looked. She told the gym teacher that I had lost a lot of weight and that I was looking great. So the gym teacher who happens to be one of my students parents as well, told the lady that she needed to catch me after church on Wednesday and let me know this. I guess she tried to find me after mass but I had already taken my kids down to the basement of the church to get their book bags and stuff and she missed me. The lady is an older women and the girl friend of one of the school's most generous benefactors. He basically gives the school a lot of money. She seems like a really nice lady but I never really talked to her much( at school we don't have a lot of time to do that)
So when I heard this news this morning I was on cloud nine! Someone who I don't even know that well, noticed that I have been working hard and paid me a compliment. It felt great.
From work the only two people who have noticed the changes in me and said anything about it are that lady and THE ART TEACHER..
I am sure the others have noticed they just didn't say anything.
So that is the story of my compliment!!!
On a side note, last night I was sitting on the couch and I had my knees bent up in front of me, and I noticed that my legs are really toned after walking so much this summer. My thighs use to be like jello and jiggle all over the place. WEll last night I was hitting my legs and they weren't jiggling, they were nice and tight. That too me shows that even though I lost only 4 pounds all summer, my body has gone through a lot of changes. I was able to tone it up. I felt accomplished after seeing that!
