just how blessed i am... life throws those silly curve balls...that get me off track occasionally...but when i really think about my life...the people in it...i am incredibly blessed... !!!
i just got invited to go to momentum tonight with my cousin...and her daughter.... hope...wow...how great is that!!!
okay...really this story begins...yesterday morning...the warm weather...tickling...my fancy.... starting off... feeling a little hungover...from the barfing flu bug wednesday...not fun...... making the decision...i was going to feel good...whether i did or not.... mind of matter... really does work...
the only real plan for the day....was a lunch date at 11:30 a.m...... and to go check on my friend Val..... he had called me tuesday night...sounding very weak...and asked me for help...just before i was headed his way...he called back and said it was getting late and he was tired...so wait until tomorrow...... i tried calling him a couple of times.... on wednesday.... but the constant dashes to the porcelain goddess... prevented me from making the 20 minute drive south...to check on him....then yesterday...after two more unanswered phone calls...i began to really worry.....val usually returns my calls within an hour or so.... mara offered to go with me....i did not want to go alone...for fear of what i might find.... i have a key to his place....so getting in wouldn't be a problem....fortunately... when we got to his place...his car was gone...and two of his neighbors said he had just left...and seemed to be okay.... needless to say... i sighed with relief....and felt the tears...burn a bit... thank god....Val finally returned my call....just after we left his house...he sounded in good spirits...and strong.... he only has one or two good days a month now.... and spends most of his time at home...resting or at the hospital....
after finding val...okay....mara and i returned to the red cup...just in time for me to get to flip's only a few minutes late... scott and i sat outside on the patio...enjoying the warm sunshine and the good ole oklahoma wind... we chatted about this and that...he brought me a beautiful candle...made with olive oil...and a bottle of wine for my birthday.... so extra sweet...love it... he had a flight to catch so we hugged and said our goodbyes.... then off to sauced to meet mikeC... i refused to spend my day inside yesterday.... upper 80's...no way... eventually we were joined by skip...lauren and a few other folks...enjoying the warm afternoon sunshine...
by sunset...sauced patio was packed....people were out and about... enjoying the warm evening air... it was absolutely wonderful...and mikeC...in rare form... larryP.. entertaining the troops...jin dressed in biker chick wear.... caitlin...sexy and smiling...cristin... cute as ever....klint...actually happy....hugs from titi...a chat with joe mills...
a wonderful....perfect...thankful..... thursday.... love it....
another sun filled day... is waiting...and i'm ready to grab it...all of it....
