The joys or is it pains of life

So yesterday was just an amazing day for me. I was finally able to reconnect with a dear friend of who I admire. Just don't tell her that....she may laugh! Bonnie- you are truly a motivating phenomenal woman. I do so miss our weekly yoga classes wit your wonderful selection of music. We shall meet again perhaps in the warrior pose :)

I caught up with my mom, ever so briefly, but realize that she is in good hands. Margie and Rory, the caregivers, have shown so much love and desire to help people in these situations. Thanks for taking care of my mum.

Mathew was busy playing house hubby. Kids to appointments in Seattle, Homework Club and track practice. Not to mention dinner was cooking when I got home. This new leaf that he has turned has turned out to be great for everyone.

Jennifer, my workout buddy, has a sore knee. Hopefully all is well with her. So we got this crazy idea to do the body shop at the Y today..... that class kicked my bottom. I feel muscles that should not or have not been felt in years. I can't believe I can still walk. No Pilate's today but Express Core tomorrow.

My little Elijah will be 8 tomorrow. I can't believe it. I am so proud of him in every way. It is funny how the smallest things with him make me proud. I know that his life has been off to a bad start but he is here and he is smiling and I know that anything worth keeping is worth fighting for. I got your back baby boy.

So he wants an MP3 player, skateboard, Twilight movie and a Lego castle. Simple and sweet. I love this kid....he is grateful for everything. For dinner we are going to the Cheesecake Factory....then Red Robin on Saturday to use his free birthday meal coupon.

18 days from now, Daivon is 13. Easter in the middle I will survive.

Gotta run for now.

Auntie, glad your surgery was successful. Love you lots.
