Fantastic Day!




Today I feel good about me. I went to my first MOPS meeting. I gave a roll of quarters to a man in need. I started the Insanity program. And tomorrow I am making a meal for a new mom. Most important, I was a good support person for my husband when he needed me and a fun mom (Yes I am in my daughters crib in that picture. Why not?!).


Yay me!

Virginia Beach

I got brave and took Aurora to the beach.


She thought the ocean was funny and liked to chase birds and play in the sand.



She liked the aquarium too.



It was a beautiful trip with my favorite girl!

My Good Deeds

Aug 30- Saved a child and large dog from a burning row boat.
Aug 31- Assisted in the birthing of quadruplet hippos.
Sept 1- Listened to an old woman tell her life story in Swahili.
Sept 2- Gave away both batches of my peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip cookies to a starving neighbor after fertilizing my other neighbor's 20 acre lawn
Sept 3- Sent all my good socks to those people who work in mines chipping away coal with their bare hands.
What a succesful week! Well, having good intentions does not get the job done. Last week I announced that I was doing a good deed every day for a week. I didn't.
My actual report is this: The day after I wrote the blog post, I signed up online to take a meal to a mom on bedrest. Apparently someone else must have signed up at the same time because another person's name appeared on the Care Calendar and not mine. I was planning on the actual making of the meal to be my second good deed. So instead of attempting to do any more good deeds I went to Virginia Beach. So the only actual good deeds I've done this week were give my husband's feet a tiny massage (I hate feet) and throw away an old juice box at the park.
So I apologize to me and you for getting our hopes up than I would be a better person this week. Now I am going to forgive myself and move on.
