Things I'm Grateful For

This transition back into the never. fuckin. ending. routine of life has me so down after the cheer and care free of the holidays that I thought I would write a list of things I'm grateful for and have enjoyed since break.

*Bike riding the Veloway (or attempting to any way and deciding we don't like roadies much when biking with two children)

*Reading while watching the boys bike the hills at Palmer Event Center

*Biking Town Lake and taking a picture of our family by the skyline

*Going wedding shopping with one of my fav girls Genie

*Girls nights with Li, M, and Ambs, making dinner together and watching the new Bachelor and our oldie but goodie Gossip Girl (we didn't get into the City)

*Touring our own downtown and taking fun pictures in yellow stringy things

*Dinner with my girl, KT, even tho it started in tears (something about tears this week, three of my friends and I have cried buckets. All on Monday, too)

*Creating my itinerary to Hawaii

*Thinking about girls weekends coming up, trips to Cali, and SUMMER

*Being asked to attend my good friend's second birth

*Being able to go on dates, even though we're clearly out of practice

*My child watching the inauguration at school

*4 hours at home by myself last Saturday

*Dinner with JaeWu last Saturday

Truthfully all this happy time with Brando has me feeling a little nauseous. I need my girl time to balance me out! Although I have been having plenty of girl time I have had equal time with Brando thru my own effort thinking it would be good for him. I'm thinking either I'm adjusting to not having more girl time than I have with Brando or I just plain need more girl time to stay well balanced!! Hmm, typing that out may've just answered my own ponderings. I am spending more time with him for HIM, but I need to make sure I take care of myself. I am grateful for

*the opportunity to go out on dates with Brando, and that we make it a priority.
