Friday Update.....

• Mom continues to do fabulous following her mastectomy a little over two weeks ago. She started back to work (she telecommutes) the Monday following her surgery and is unstoppable. That is a good word to describe her. I sometimes think I have a little of the unstoppable gene in me but not near the dose she does. I am very very proud of her.
• Soccer and cross country are both finished for the season and I am not quite for sure what to do with all my down time. I guess I will try to spend more time doing the little things around the house that no one likes to do and facilitating some things in the house to possibly get it ready to go on the market in the spring.
• Michael is growing into quite a young man. Now that he is pulling it together in school (thanks to his ADD medicine) he is starting to excel in his guitar playing and his saxophone playing. I am very impressed with how quickly he has taken up with these instruments and now he is wanting to learn how to play drums. I am not sure if he needs to take on another instrument but we shall see. I would hate to stifle any type of musical interest since it is so important to me. Did I mention that he HAS to listen to NPR every night while he is in bed?
• One of my assistants is off next week so my life will officially be hell. Greg sees the patient load of 1 1/2 therapists so when he goes on vacation.....well lets just say.....NIGHTMARE! I hope he just has a miserable time in Jamaica!!! (kidding Greg, I know you read this!)

1. When pigs fly the majority of the people will start earning living instead of walking around with their hand out with a feeling of entitlement.

2. Seventy-five degrees one day and fifty the next....seriously?!

3. Call me Ishmael.

4. I don't know why I like to do that all the time if you know what I mean.

5. The most entertaining person in my life is I surely cannot pick just one because there are so many fabulous people in my life that offer many talents and humor in their own unique way....I simply cannot narrow it down to one person.

6. I will never back down when I know I am absolutely right, who's next?

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to going out and eating a little Mexican food along with a glass of sangria, tomorrow my plans include cleaning a fish tank, going to Old Navy, going to Kohls with a grand finale of a MUCH needed girl's night out at Spankie's and Sunday, I want to go to Sunday school and then hole up in the house for the day!
