We had such a relaxing, productive, quality weekend. But I must mention our Saturday Night Field Trip. A good friend of mine Megan Miller started a new venture in life and it has already been an incredible success! Well ironically she started her business in a building that we own and soooo, we went down to toast to her Saturday night and check it all out because I simply have not had the time and every time I went there, she was out at Home Depot or somewhere. Well I brought the girls with and when we walked in, we had no idea what our night was going to bring. lol. Long story short, within the hour, my beautiful innocent little girls were actually swinging on the poles learning moves by the ever so talented "Kim". We laughed and laughed and had so much fun. I even was taking some lessons, although I learned that those poles take some major muscle to do anything on..NO JOKE! The girls were having a blast, honestly.... I have not seen them so interested in something outside of the teenage life, and then they were last night. When we finally left, they could not believe the time they had. They have still not stopped talking about it. And the best thing is; in this short time there, the girls learned quite a few lessons. See "Kim" is very open and very artistic and by this I mean, she is a tattoo artist and she has expressed herself through tattoos over her entire body. To say the least, she inspired my girls because they learned that looks do not mean anything. She taught them some life lessons in such a short time that I think they will keep with them forever. This may all sound silly but as a mom listening to her children speak about this so passionately, it was touching for me. Kim gave my one daughter so much confidence last night that she sometimes lacks. For that, I am so very appreciative...I kind of felt guilty having my daughters learning moves on a pole, but I changed that real fast. It was nothing about that at all, it was self-confidence, fitness and a "REAL" person teaching them, we were with my sister, mom and it was a great time. If you have not heard or checked out this new awesome place, please do it! http://theundergroundfitnessclub.com/index.html. Megan, again ... Thank you soooooooooooo much! I think you found your "thing" girl!!! And I absolutely cannot wait to be a part of it on a regular basis!! And I will be!
It is funny the places that life can take you and the effect that it can have on you. I again had an awesome weekend.....to add to it all, another amazing happening that I had that brought a HUGE smile to my face :) Sometimes "real" feelings never go away no matter how long ago they are and why you ask? Well because they were and are "REAL”. Having that "one" person in your life that you can go to with anything and a person that knows you and understands you now and the past 20 something years, and is there still 100% for you. That is something I hope everyone reading this has, because it is priceless. All I can say is: Thank you for being you! With that being said, the teenage girl in me was out a bit all day today! Man........I always daydream and have thoughts of being able to go back to High School for one weekend, no worries, awesome feelings and great memories for sure! I guess that is what Class Reunions are all about, which brings me to also wanting to continue with some events for our class or in combination with class of 88 as well.
Well, I am going to prepare myself for the pillow now, another thumbs up weekend and ready for the new week! Hope all is well and we will talk soon!
I like the fish thing.
