Thank you... I think?

So yesterday at work, a really kind volunteer (he's about the age of my dad) told me that he liked me with a bit more meat on my bones. I know that he meant it as a compliment but it felt kind of backwards as in a smack upside the head. So I went home and had more fruit at lunch... and will be going for a bike ride today. Interesting motivation source!

Don't overthink his comment, just accept it as a compliment and celebrate it. With chocolate.

Wanna go for a bikeride sometime? We could meet somewhere, head to Make 1 for knitting.

I agree with jocelyn and with the wise women who some time ago said, 'wear your nice pants'. At my stage in life some compliments you don't want to think through. You KNOW they are mistakes or slips of the subconscious.
