This past week has been an amazing one for me. I heard that friends of mine had their 2nd child-he arrived early but is doing well. A friend of mine's mother died and one of my high school friends ( he was a yr older than me) is in the hospital due to his heart. I then learned that another one of my class mates has cancer/tumors.
Growing up and being an adult is scary! I love being a mother it is the best part of being me.

Strangeness of life
I have in the past 5 minutes (thanks to the world of PC) found out that one of our friends just gave birth -a month early-to her second son! So far everyone is doing as well as can be expected. The little guy is having a wee bit of trouble breathing. Our prayers are with them all. I then found out that another friends mother passed away yesterday.
I always thought that when 1 life left the world another came about but this is the first time they both happened to people I know. It is a sad day for my friends who have lost a mother, aunt, sister and friend. I can only hope that they all find peace and serenity in the knowledge that she may have left us in body but is here in spirit. With the birth of a child so early you experience the joys that come with the birthing and the fears of the child coming so early. My prayers go out to them all.

holidays
We went out to dinner last evening. My father (his birthday) my husband, my daughter and myself. We went to Kouzzina's (Cat Cora's) it is located on the Boardwalk at Walt Disney World. the food is "Greek themed" which I love and my husband is "reserved" about. LOL...I believe everyone had a fun night. The services was not up to what I expected even my husband mentioned that it was off...we got an appetizer before our drinks and we had to ask for the non-GF bread. Yeah try that one on for size. I got "bread" before anyone else. He he write it down that was the first time!
I had a bit of trouble last night. Lower Abdominal pressure which "dissolved" on it's own-life is strange I was very very careful with what I ate so...who knows maybe it was the coffee from earlier or just my bodies reaction to a 'stew' something I haven't had for ever!!!!
Today I did nothing-heck I did not even get out of my PJ's yep I stinky!!! and I love it. Funny both the parental units took naps but not the 4 yr old! got to love that.
I cooked a very tasty dinner, center cut pork with GF-breading, butter, sliced cherry tomatoes, corn, steamed potatoes, green pepper, feta cheese that was baked...we also had steamed fresh green beans, and carrots...I had a nice glass of red wine so tasty!

Wine and a Rain Storm
Today the news has been about the upcoming snow storm in the Northeast portion of the Eastern United States...hmm we got rain and tornadoes-nothing fun, romantic, white, fluffy or awe inspiring about them.
so I am having a few glasses of white wine, and relaxing. I had a nice salad for dinner-I ordered a greek salad but when my husband picked it up, I got a chef salad. Really wanted the greek but was way to lazy to bother about calling or trying to "take" it back..we did pick up on his way home from work!
the salad was good for the gluten free portion of my diet,however, the cheese was not so good for the lactose free portion. Goat cheese is fine I don't seem to have the same problems with it as "cow's milk" cheese. Seems i am not alone with this which is nice to know.
Tomorrow is dance class, then to Animal Kingdom, then to the Jenkins for a fun little visit. I am tired but not Caitlynn she is going strong. I always hope she'll sleep in if I let her stay up! Funny how kids are. She is more like her father in this respect than me, I love my sleep. Something awe inspiring about it. I use to believe that you lived 2 lives and when you slept in 1 you were awake in the other. The idea intrigued me, i often felt like I had glimpses lingering thoughts of that kept with me from time to time.
I had such a great imagination it was no wonder reality was such a let down for me.
Hmm.. wine and thunderstorms, rain splattering on the roof, a warm and fuzzy blanket and a good book. Off i go enjoy your night, sleep tight see you when the sun wakes.
