What a weird
and wonderful week it’s been. Full of
family, friends, hospital stays, memories and my birthday. A lot of life all stacked up at once. Thank you all for the birthday wishes. They are very much appreciated.
As for me,
the song remains the same. My hCG test
results came this week and revealed no change at all. That’s ok but I had my hopes up for at
least a small drop. So this means I
need to work much harder to drop that level.
This week we
had dinner with our friends Paul, his wife Darlene and their 7 children. We love them so much – it was a blast. And then The Former Boyfriend took me to one
of my favorite restaurants, Trattoria Roma for my birthday dinner. Here’s the link if anyone is interested in
the restaurant www.trattoria-roma.com . Everything was fabulous
and intimate.

Last night we went to Brew-Stirs in Clintonville
to see Anna and her brother Tim sing. There
were maybe 40 people there, a small performance in a warm, dark bar. I wish I could convey the atmosphere better. Anna is an important part of my healing. She has been my massage therapist for almost
3 years. Anna is a healer – she works very hard soothing body and soul. She also has a beautiful voice and harmonizes
well with her brother. I thought I’d
have a photograph of them, but the bar was too dark…great little dive bar if
you’re in the neighborhood.

And finally,
those of you who pray… we’re asking for prayers once again. Our Brother-in-Law Brian had surgery on
Wednesday and is recovering in a hospital in Virginia. He’s in a lot of pain and will remain
in-patient for a few more days.

It is yet
another reminder to enjoy the present moment and hold on tight to the ones you
love. Happy Weekend!
