Day 248

Friday night is here and bring on Saturday!  Looking forward to our early morning garage sale tomorrow!  I tagged and priced all of our items and they are ready to go out and be bought in the morning.  LOL we had an idea also (to help pay for some of my medical bills) that for a dollar, one can pay to see my ghastly scar on the back of my arm....good deal right? We shall see :-)

Today is over!  I started out my morning at physical therapy and had an amazing session!  The physical therapist gave me half of a hockey stick with a 2 pound ankle weight strapped to it.  I was able to do 40 bench presses (and yes I broke a sweat and felt the BURN!) and it felt great!  I am really pleased that there is muscle tone returning to my arm!  I go in next Friday for another X-ray....fingers crossed there is bone growing there as well!

At Staples, I saw my friend Mary today.  She is a bright, cheery person, and I am always glad to get to have a moment or two to chat with her.  We bought our things and went our own ways, but we had the chance to learn some new things about one another and that was great!  After Staples, Connor and I went to a park day with some MOPS mom friends.  I don't know what I would do without that group of women!  Just getting out of the house for 1 hour changed my whole perspective on LIFE today!  I have been feeling so down, but after having Connor play with other kids, and getting to talk to other moms about kid things, my spirits were lifted and I headed home HAPPY!

I picked up Joel from school, Connor was down for a nap, and Joel and I ate a time honored kid lunch of celery with peanut butter and cream cheese spread.  Joel also had fun putting raisins along the top of the celery.  It was fun!

David came home and I began to cook dinner.  While doing that, my friend Jennifer, her son, and doggie, came over for a visit!  It was great having a doggie in the house for a few minutes!  We had a fun time visiting and Connor and William got to continue to have fun together while playing at the park...SO cute!  I am looking forward to next Friday night when we do pizza at the park with both of our families!  Should be fun!

Well, the dishes are done, the garage sale items are ready to go, and I am getting sleepy!  Time for bed.  I go to bed on a high note tonight...it was so nice to see so many of my dear friends today and get to catch up a little bit with each one.  I cherish even the 5 minutes I get to spend with other people...it is 5 less minutes of my day that I spend by myself or with just me and my crazy 2 year old.  I love him, but Mommy gets a bit lonely sometimes.  I am grateful for my friends...they bring so very many happy moments to my life!  Night all!
