Going Green
Let's just hope I don't jinx things by posting about it but....
One of the guys I work with (M) has a SO whose daughter (still with me??LOL) goes to school with difficult child. M was telling me that this girl (L) likes difficult child and he's always talking to her at school, walks her to class, etc. L had asked difficult child if he wanted to go to the Christmas formal but he said he didn't know if he could because he might have to work. (Ahem....he doesn't have a job) I hadn't heard one word about this dance so husband and I asked him about it. (He's never gone to any dances, games or anything throughout high school. We would let him and would love for him to "get out there" but he's never brought it up) difficult child only likes this girl as a friend but he's decided to go and called her up and asked her! I'm a little concerned that he might break L's heart but otherwise I'm so excited! This is one of very few "normal" things that we've gotten to do! Hopefully this weekend I will take difficult child suit shopping (had to explain that suit pants do NOT hang off your backside so that should be interesting! LOL) and then we have to order the corsage, etc. Since difficult child doesn't drive yet, I told him I would see if I could borrow a nice/snazzy car from the dealership I work at to take them to the dance in.
I think I'm more excited about this than L is!!! :dance: I was really starting to wonder if we would ever get to do anything like this! The dance is on the 8th so I'll be sure to post pics somewhere so I can share! (just keep your fingers crossed that it goes well!)
