Things I Have Learned This Week

I don't get a chance to write as often as I used to. Now that school is out, the girls are keeping me really busy. I am still quite tired. I seem to be dragging my butt most of the time, which means I am not training like I should be for the big walk! Anyway, I thought I would take the time to list the things that I have learned this week. 1) I can walk 6 miles without dying; 2) I sometimes need an alcoholic beverage to be a good parent; 3) hot flashes suck; 4) swim diapers don't hold a lot of pee; 5) I sometimes need an alcoholic beverage to be a good parent 6) my kids can never release all of their energy, they must have reserves; 7) it is too hot to go to the fair in the afternoon; 8) I love John Mayer more than you; 9) I sometimes need an alcoholic beverage to be a good parent; 10) oh, and Carina is tall enough to put one foot in the toilet!

The attached picture is of me and Gail Serene and Sherri Stoddard. Three of the Hags and Heroes. We participated in the Brian Waterbury Memorial Walk. It was a six mile walk from Morro Rock to the Cayucos Pier. These girls have really been there for me this last year. Not only do I have the honor of working with them, I also have the honor of being their friend. They have seen me at my worst and still loved me! I couldn't do this walk without their participation and their encouragement. I am looking forward to spending more time with them hitting the pavement (or the sand!).
