A Night of Thanks

Firstly, I'll start with a picture of Abbie. I want to stress how not normal she is. She's perfect. And yes, that is a rug - she enjoys playing under them.

Back to the week...

Oh what a week! It felt long for being a short week. I still can't believe that the one girl who has been on leave will be back in a short two weeks! It'll be very exciting to have her back, we all miss having her in the office.

I started really exercising again, it's been great. I forgot how much energy I have when I'm on a normal routine, yet there's so much more flexibility in my current routine that it doesn't seem like all chance of spontaneity is gone. Soon I'll get a gym membership again - I love my yoga, pilates, and spin classes. Time to take care of tj again, I've been putting me on the back burner for two years, so I figure I'm about due.

Oh yeah , here is our garden after I planted. Sorry it took me so long to post a picture, but I've had a lot on my plate recently -just be happy you got one at all :P. Everything is getting so dry, with weather in the triple digits it's to be expected; we hit 118F the other day, can we say sweat?

On another note...

Music, wine, dancing; cleaning/tidying as I move from room to room and a blog waiting for me to pour into. I wouldn't have it any other way. Tonight has been good..no...great. You'd be surprised how good life is when you take a moment away from everything just to think what you have.

Lord I am so blessed...

I have an amazing mama and papa bear, they have sacrificed everything for their children, and they love me beyond dimensions that I can comprehend; they have given me their all and then some more. I have a big sis who understands things that I haven't yet experienced and somehow passes that knowledge on to me, and a brother in law who loves her in a way that I prayed for as a child. A brother who is my teddy bear - he has shown me strength and determination. A husband who wants to give me the world, and loves me through it all. A mum and da who loves me as their own. I have a lil sis who is the baby sister I always wanted, she's young and naive, and perfectly pure as a baby sister should be. I have a bro who is my constant reminder that there is a God with a plan much bigger than our own, he's strong and yet so fragile. I have more extended family then anyone I know. Two kittens who are joy and excitement tucked into the cutest little fluff balls that exist. A fantastic job, with sweet and caring people.

My needs are met, I have fun, and I know that everyday holds the potential for beauty.

I love and am loved, I dream, I laugh.

I pray. I believe.

What more could a girl ask for?

G'night

I'm Late

So Late! For a very important date! Hehe.

Howdie Doodies children!

I hope that everyone had a good weekend - my four day weekend has been fabulous. I've mucked around in the garden per usual, slept in (okay so 8:30 isn't late, but boy does it feel good), played with the mischievous kittens, cleaned up the fishie tanks etc. It's been wonderful and I still have one more day! What more could anyone ask for right? It's been slow, just the way I like it!

On Wednesday we had dinner over at the in laws, grandma and uncle kiki were there. It was really nice to meet him finally, and I really got the chance to pick his brain about living in Europe. Can you even think of that? Living in Europe, to dream! As always it was really nice to spend time with the familia!

Right now - I'm lounging in my reading chair, the tinkle of the aquarium running, a certain little kitten purring on my chest, and all the info I could ever need right at my fingertips! Chris is at work unfortunately, but I believe he has tomorrow off so that'll be nice.

It's just the right amount of quiet... with that said I shall end my smallest entry. Enjoy the comic.
