Tidbits from my week

i just read jenny's blog about tidbits from her week and liked it so i am copying...

colored my hair and soooo happy i did. my sis used to be a beautician back in the day, so she bought me a year supply of good quality hair color as a gift. bring on the chemicals- i would much rather have chemical hair than gray hair. (other than that i am pretty green, but i just can't embrace gray hair until i'm at least 70)

i am turning into an active person and surprising myself. a few days ago L was running a fever, so we didn't take our normal daily walk b/c she slept more than usual. i was just itching to get out and exercise, so after she went to bed, chris stayed home so i could take a quick power walk around the neighborhood. it felt so good. am i getting addicted to physical activity? i don't mind at all if i am.

organic strawberries were on sale, so i am indulging myself in summer fruits. had some bing cherries tonight also. summertime fruit makes me happy.

went to capital brewery with steve and jenny. so fun sitting on the veranda on a perfect evening, eating snacks, listening to music and drinking some brews.

took L to state st for the first time to meet dale and jacq for ice cream. there were pictures of cows at the ice cream shop and she starting saying "Moo" when she saw it. she has been learning her animal sounds, so i thought it was so cute!

talked on the phone with this amazing vocational trainer/life coach from boston this week. he goes to a vineyard church there and is helping me develop some of our newcomer class materials on discovering how God made us. i was so inspired and encouraged talking to him and reading the material he mailed to me. people probably pay big bucks to meet with this guy and he has given me all his resources and time for free. so thankful.

talked on the phone to my 2 sisters and my 2 brothers. i also have 2 cousins that are like sisters to me.. one is in greece so i can't talk to her for a few weeks- bummer. i did get to e-mail my other cousin a few times this week so that was good. i love my family and am so glad we have good relationships with one another.

tried some new indian food this week- tasty stuff.

had people over to our apartment several times this week-love being a hostess!

got to read a ton.

took a nap yesterday.
good week.
