ANNEMARIE GETS ENGAGED:
We went out to our cars, and as I looked into mine, I saw another rose. ND on one side. THE BIGGESTon the other.
We went to run a few errands and got a bite to eat. Danielle was already asking me if I'd thought about when I wanted to get married, where, etc, etc. I kept telling her that I haven't thought about ANY of that, and wasn't going to unless I had a reason to! She thought I was ridiculous, and kept telling me "This is it! Even if you're going to be conservative, I'm going to be excited. It isn't your birthday, it's not your anniversary, it's not Christmas...this is THE day!" Of course, again, in my heart, I knew it.....but wanted to just see how it was all going to play out. :)
After eating, when I got back to my desk, there were two NEW roses there waiting for me. I looked around to see if anyone in the office wouldn't be able to hide a smirk letting me know that they know what is going on, but no one gave me any clues. Danielle acted surprised. Uh huh....at this point, I figured that she was in on it...that some of that texting and playing with her phone during lunch had to be her telling Brett about our whereabouts, but I didn't want to know, so I didn't ask. I just wanted to enjoy the story as it unfolded.
These roses said -A, NN and BLESSING IN MY.
At one point, I said to Danielle...."Well, what am I supposed to do? I haven't talked to him, so what am I supposed to do after work?" Luckily, Brett thought about that too. The note at my desk told me what to do.
You've worked hard today...
So you definitely shouldn't work past 3:00.
When that time comes...
Head on home.
