Catch up

Yesterday afternoon I went to a graduation party for my ex-sister-in-law who just graduated from De Anza with her RN. It was fantastic to see both ex-sister-in-laws who consider me their sister EVEN though I have been divorced for over ten years. There was great food, lots of hugs and lots and lots of stories. We vowed to get back in touch and re-connect, in keeping with that I mailed them this morning :)...I have to say that it's awesome to be with people that you are comfortable with, who know your stories and love you unconditionally. I hope that as I find myself with more time, post grad school, that this will happen more and more frequently as I strive to re-enter "real" life.

In keeping with the trend I then spent the evening with Julia, in San Mateo...watching a movie and a couple of episodes of a series. (LOVE that NetFlix) I slept over and we spent the morning just hanging, being with each other - coffee, farmers market, REI...things we both really enjoy doing, which allows for a whole lot of fun..."these plums are delicious", "wanna split two flavors of that?", "that's cute", "the cut of that doesn't do anything for you", "you should try that on"...

NOW, I am participating in some study avoidance as I really need to get busy on my paper and keep sitting down, opening it, looking at it, reading it, and then finding LOTS of other things to do. But, I am going to close this and GET BUSY!

Namaste my friends!
