Behavior – CountryClaire

Archive by category "Behavior"

I definitely believe in helping others. I wish that there was more that I could do; however, I do what I can and in some cases I do more than I should. I do not think that I am any better than anyone else and trust me, there are tons…

Shame On Me!

It’s been forever and a day since I’ve added something new; however, there’s no excuse – well, there are excuses, yet, if you’ve spent any time on my site – you’ve come to know I’m not one for excuses! No Whining! Oh, what a time I’ve had lately, some good,…

Missed Moment or Moment Missed

Last night I spent a great deal of time speaking with a very handsome man. I had wondered if he had interest or if he was seeking conversation with someone other than his travel mate. We spoke of past relationships, where we are now, the B-52’s and photography. It was…

Future Missed

With the entire December album of George Winston playing in the background I write this. Thanksgiving being the first song. The holiday itself is about sharing, time with family and taking your stomach to task. As I listen to George display his talent, I wonder about my ‘special purpose’ as…

By My Side

All too often people write about the misses of life, the opportunities that have passed or how they never opened the door meant for them. Society is more interested in the demise of another versus the stories of triumph, success or reached goals. It’s such a very sad thing that…

Strollers

I would rather see gangsters at MOA than preoccupied Mothers with strollers. I would feel safer next to loaded weapons than a Mother who is too busy trying to see if a dress is on sale. It’s a classic situation… I’m shopping, checking things out.. and then all of a…

You’re Fired

If anyone thinks that firing someone is easy, they’re wrong. Even when the firing is completely justified, it still never feels good. If someone says, they’re ok with it, they’re in the WRONG position. In many instances I want to share with the person that I’m letting go that I…

A New Kind of Happy

His smile…I recall a time as I drove up, he smiled. It wasn’t huge, it was genuine and true – just as he is. Watching him think before he speaks or as he is recalling something… his words have meaning. Despite success, he’s humble – no need for false bravado!…

When Your Rock Becomes A Pebble

It’s near impossible for a woman to rely on another without looking needy. It goes without saying that we, as people need one another in different capacities; however, let’s really look at this: When getting to know someone you have that excitement period that literally has no time limit; however,…

Tough As An Egg, Sharp As A Ball This is the Theme of My Dating Life Y’all

All kidding aside I’ve taken a moment or many to think about where I am and why it is that on most weekends I am spending time at home, alone with my puppies. Yes, I want to share special moments with one person; however, I find that I desire that…

Screaming Girls Annoy Me

Last night I went to a friend’s house to keep me from going elsewhere. When I arrived she had to leave for a while and so there I was with 3 High School Freshmen Girls. Oh, there was screaming, shrieking and laughter…for what? I have no idea; however, it was…

I’m Still Smoking….

…my electronic cigarette! While in Chicago this past November my friend JJ, no not, Jimmy Walker…took me to CigNot. She highly recommended the electronic cigarette. I had thought about quitting; however, each attempt was, well, unsuccessful. She was not pushy; however, she knew how wonderful this was and she knew…

Now, I Don’t Want To Talk! (I guess)

Mr. Cute and I have been talking recently; however, days past by without a call or text and in my new approach, I was not driving the ship. Yet, I felt that I had every right to reach out, check-in – see what, if anything was up. So I did….

If We’re Not Serious – Am I Kidding Myself?

It’s hard to put into words what has recently come to light; however, a blog is the perfect place in which to try. Although the word serious can take on many levels of interpretation, the use of the word in regard to personal relationships is what I am writing about…

When Push Comes to Shove, In Love

It had been on my mind; however, was it the person or the action that caused me angst? When I started to go into it… it became evident that I was not looking at the person, I was recalling the action of another. Shame on me! I try to keep…

Dedicated Evasive Automatic

This morning while getting ready I caught a few minutes of The Recruit with Al Pacino…more or less the movie is about the training of CIA Agents and the twists and turns are constant. First you think that Layla really did get cut from the school only to realize that it was…

Does Everything Align

One of the funniest things about meeting new people is ‘thinking’ that you have your preference list all thought out; however, there’s always the possibility that you meet someone where you have absolutely nothing in common. Sure, you can share a few likes i.e. chili, political view and being left-handed,…

I Earned My WTF Were You Thinking Badge

If dating was setup like the Girl Scouts….I would have recently earned my WTF Were You Thinking Badge! I would have had it a few days ago; however, my recent text exchange with Mr. Cute solidified it. For moments, OK, days I toiled with his comment… We would have been…

Border Patrol, It’s Not Just For The South

How on earth could someone stick & stay so tightly to their position? Simple, they are aware of their boundaries. For over a week I’ve been blathering on about how Mr. Cute has stated: “I don’t want to talk.” He never truly wavered on this and any conversation was short…
