Funny NSV

[Brian66 85]

I'm a single dad to three great kids -- ages 16, 11 and 10. Life has not been easy for them since their mom died four years ago, but they are generally doing great and I am very proud of them. They are probably the primary reason that I had this surgery last July -- I really felt like I needed to get my health under control so that I would be around as long as possible to take care of them and be happy and healthy while doing it.

Anyway, last weekend, I came home from shopping and my son was in front of the house playing basketball. As I came into the house, I stopped to talk to him for a minute or two about who knows what.

A little while later, my older daughter tells me -- "Dad, I was looking at my window and got a little scared to see some strange man talking to Kevin, but then I realized it was you!"

She made my day!

I love it! We should probably have a new thread here called "mistaken identity" as several folks lately have posted stories along the same line where a family member doesn't recognize you because you have lost so much weight! Congratulations....a great NSV!

That's a great NSV. Nothing like being a new person but still you. (If that makes any sense.)
