I need a break from work, so I’m going to bullet my weekend. I know you are totally like, ’sweet, thanks for telling me that’.
- Tae Kwon Do tournament Saturday
- It was an hour behind, I was one of the first events. I was there from 10am-6pm. That made me crabby
- I went for a jog at 8am. I suck at jogging that early
- Grocery shopping
- I had to get up at 6:30am on a Sunday
- Kidney Walk at the Detroit Zoo
- we got some free food but there was no coffee
- The polar bears were quite active
- The sun was shining but the wind was chilly
- I finally got to give M her birthday present & hold her 3yrold hand
- Hanging out with my dad, C and my closet friends
- Went to see IC’s dad in the hospital, pray for him please. He’s been unconscious for over a week now
- He was at the same hospital that my mom was at so it was a little hard for me
- Watched the Wings Game! 5-2 Wings!!! W00T!
- Got sucked into a Lifetime Movie
I’m defintely not ready for it to be Monday! Especially when it seems like everyone and their mom was working over the weekend. Geez my inbox is a little overloaded! Not to mention those same people are blowing up my phone. Leave me alone! Also, a meeting from 1-3 makes me crabby.
Hope you are having a better Monday!

That faint scent of grandma that you smell…yeah that’s me.
The icy hot that I’ve put on my foot is starting to wear off. It’s got an array of colors, ranging from black to blue to purple to yellow to green. It really is a work of art with a bit of swollen ankle for good measure. Each day it’s gets a little bit more colorful. I’m proud of it though, and if I wasn’t at work I would take a picture to share with you. Well it’s really not the at work part that is stopping me, we have a great camera, it’s more of the ‘I hate feet’ thing. I kind of think they are the most disgusting part of the body. But the more I injury them, the more I appreciate them, so I guess it’s a love/hate situation.
Ok moving on…
So the kidney walk at the zoo on Sunday was a blast. Probably the best time I’ve had at the zoo in a long time. Part of it was that the animals were quite active, the tiger playing with his gigantic ball and a kangaroo laying in the middle of the foot path.
The other part was the company I was with. AG brought her beautiful, 2-yr-old daughter M. I love that little girl, she is always so good when I see her. She is a very intuitive and bright child. It also helps that she wanted to spend a lot of the day with C and I. She would run up to us and hug our legs and grab our hands.
Seriously, how can your heart not melt? I think Irish Cailin put it best, being with M at the zoo let us see it from a child’s perspective. Perfect.
