And a good time was had by all

We hosted AE's 9th birthday sleepover this weekend. Seven friends arrived Saturday night when the snow was beginning to fly, by the time they left on Sunday a.m. we had over a foot of snow. The girls were completely oblivious there was a storm going on outside because they were giggling, dancing, eating and playing.

They had a great time having their caricatures done. Each of the girls chose their favorite activity, we had lots of soccer, basketball, ballet and swimming. We even had time for a group portrait.

All of the party goers are really very sweet little girls. I love this age, they are really showing their personalities, which are so funny. We didn't have one spat or tear shed (amazing considering they didn't get to sleep until after 2:30 a.m) - just lots and lots of fun.

I had been trying to continue playing with the plantar fasciitis guess I figured it was going to be around for awhile so might as well deal with it. This plan actually worked out for the best because when I was playing on Thursday there was this loud pop in the bottom of my foot. Suddenly my heel felt better, so I thought, "Maybe it released all of the bad heel juju into the rest of my foot." Well, it was something like that. Evidently I tore a ligament in my foot which the doctor told me is really the best thing that could have happened. The reason why is it cured the plantar fasciitis. Plus the recovery time for the ligament thing is about six weeks versus potentially months or years with the other. So all in all I guess it was a good thing to tear a ligament. I am bummed because I can't do any exercise for t...

Tightrope walking on a string

This has been one of "those" weeks where I often find myself scared to slow down and assess the situation because when I do I start to get this really tight feeling in my chest and I feel nauseous. Does anyone else get that? When life is going mach 10 with your hair on fire...and if you stop you just might fall right over from that string you are balancing everything on... I am going to bed.
