elcee 3,341 Posted January 6, 2012 I had another NSV today . I live in the country on 5 acres so my neighbours are not close enough that I bump into them very often. Today I stopped to get the post out of my postbox which is at the end of our rd. My next door but one neighbour pulled up behind me and we both got out of our cars.I said hi and asked how she was. She said fine and asked if I was the new person that had just moved into the street. Now I know I haven't seen her for a while other than waving as we drive past each other but she seriously didn't recognise me. When she realised who I was she was gobsmacked and told me how amazing I looked and asked how much weight I had lost. This is the second time this has happened in a couple of months. the same thing happened when I saw one of my other neighbours at the post office. It's amazing how fantastic something like this can make you feel. 3 readytogoforit, Angela the Breeder and motivatedlap reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm surprised she didn't ask you, very concerned of course, if you were terminally ill and is there anything she can do for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TracyC 32 Posted January 6, 2012 I love this story. I think the NSV stories are emotionally more important than reading the scale.< /p> 1 readytogoforit reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
