Jules was here Tuesday-Saturday afternoon and the visit flew by. As you can see I hit her up the first day for yogurt and we all enjoyed it immensely. We also had a wonderful home cooked meal by our awesome neighbors and friends, the Good's. It was a wonderful pasta dish with a salad, garlic bread and apple pie-thank you. We decided it would be the perfect meal to have a glass of red wine and it was delicious. I was up all day with no nap. The next day we took it a little bit easier with me napping and Jules playing with the kids, taking them to the park and her keeping up with the dreaded laundry---Thank you Jules. On Thursday she went to the grocery store, so I could keep on munching and made a couple more meals to freeze. On Friday we went to take the kids to the new Dr. Seuss movie, I took a napper when we got home and we went to BJ's for a cousins dinner on Jule's last night. We had the best dinner and it was great to have us all together. I had the dietetic Chicken Fried steak with mash potatoes. My cousins actually live here in Los Angeles, so it is awesome to have them close. It was so perfect to have Julie here. She was so helpful with the kids and the house. She will be so missed and My sisters and I are planning a trip July 18th to go home and all be together with mom, dad and Diana. I think mom got the raw end of the visits where I took the most care. Good ol Mommy, I will be more fun this summer!
I have been having really vivid dreams of all of my high school friends. I think it has been due to all the emails, blog remarks and cards that have been sent. If you sent something then you can bet you have debut in my dreams. I am having a great time with them and cant wait to see who visits me tonight. My energy has been slowly progressing and I am anxious to get back on the courts. Wendy and Stephanie will you hit with me one on one or should I say to me when I am a little more stable? Tracie a dear sweet friend is coming tomorrow for a couple of days with Carole to possibly follow. I love everyone for your support and will never take you, my life or my smile for granted. I am anxious to have more go go, so I can give back to the community. I am going to try driving without the kids next week (exciting-beware), so I can see if I am ready to partake in carpooling to school (thanks for covering Sherron-your a gem). I am going to start updating on the first of each month, so you can follow my progress. You must be getting a little tired of me, but all said and done this blog has been a lot fun connecting me with new and old friends and a great support tool. Thanks for putting up with my bad grammar and spelling. Oh yea-my boy cousins are both single Chad is 35 and Shane is 25. Wouldn't it be super cool if my blog made a love connection for them. Love to all and April is a few days away!
