I had been yearning to write another post, and I knew that it had been a long time since I have written anything, but when I looked back to see when it was that I had written last, I was slightly shocked that it had been over 6 months!!!
Wow, time flies!
And MUCH has happened since then!
I signed up for my first 15K race-The Hot Chocolate Run in San Fransisco -but the storm during the race was so severe that the race was actually down-graded to a 10K...slightly disappointing, but totally fun still. I went with my boss and some other awesome doctors and dental professionals.
I also lost one of the most special beasts in my life. My sweet kitty, Trixie, AKA Ms.Princess.
She left us quickly due to organ failure. She was so special to me. I had her since she was about 9 months old...she'd been with me during a break-up, marriage, children, moving 3 times, in health and happiness and sickness and sadness. She was the kindest animal that I have ever met, showing her sweet demeanor to humans and other animals alike. I think of her and miss her daily still.
On a happy note, my beautiful nephew was born. He was born healthy and happy to my sister and my brother in law. He's quite adorable!!
I got a new pair of bottle caps!!! Totally fun, trendy and bold!
I went to my best friend from childhood's daughters first birthday and played "kid" as I was the only adult there who actually got their face painted! I was very proud!
I found my new favorite drink!!! Coconut flavored sparkling water!!! It's like summer in a can!!!
Finally enjoyed some sunshine at the beach after months and months of storms and rain! I'm the last person in the world who will complain about cloud cover and rain-as I thrive and love cloudy and stormy weather, but I do have to admit that it was nice to have the sun warm my incredibly white body!
I am learning more and more daily of the wonderful things of my God. The more I let go of and let Him take on, the more joy and peace I am experiencing! PTL
I started another mermaid drawing! Here is a quick clip of the scales...
And here is a quick clip of her as she is unfinished...
My wonderful little boy (who is not so little anymore) and his awesomely kind heart knows just how to warm his mama's heart too... Bringing me handpicked bouquets and setting them in a honey jar...
When I get more time (hahaha! like that is possible), I will be more diligent in updating the world in what is new in the life of this Mermom!
