This is what my husband so obliviously calls her from his distance. Her husband teases that it was our personal ads date. Men (I say shaking my head with an affectionate smile).
If you have ever responded to a seller on Craigslist via email, you can appreciate the fact that the subject line pre-populates with the description of the original posting. Our first correspondences were titled "2 Wicker Chairs - $50 (Lees Summit)". We then progressed to weeks of a shortened "Wicker Chairs". I sent one today with the subject "Lunch Today and Video Recap". I loved the response I got back, so pointedly stated, "We are no longer under the subject of Wicker Chairs. We have moved on."
I couldn't have expressed it better myself.
So lunch was fun and delish as we ventured out a local (and now infamous FoodNetwork) hangout, sampling their smoked salmon and caper pizza. YUM-O! Conversation was again easy. Time flew by. Three and a half hours later I was full of information, support and options and ideas I hadn't thought of before. And a new friend.
"Just One" is the message of this heartfelt video campaign for The Adoption Resource Foundation. My new friend has been a board member in the past and her husband holds a position currently. They are both great resources for support - and one of the couples who shared their personal story in the following promo.
