Thanks for hanging in there guys with me with the changes I’ve made appearance wise on the blog. I am a complete dope when it comes to maneuvering this thing and am shocked I can do absolutely anything here but I hear that some of you like that soft blue I had on the last design. I am seeing what I can do to get that back on the page right behind this text right here. I think there is a way to do it and I’m researching it…so please just hang in there with me. 🙂
Had a great weekend in Sedona with all the boys. I drove up with John while my Dad and his friend Greg rode up in a separate car. We all went to the fantastic musical Seven Brides for Seven Brothers on the way up. That AZ Broadway Theatre really puts on Broadway style productions. It’s one of the Valley’s best kept secrets as far as I’m concerned. We had a great time.
John and I had a great talk on the way up about our lives, our relationship, our family, his mental health, etc. He’s so sweet and so appreciative and expresses it often. He’s doing much better and the new program at Wellness City seems to be the help for him that I thought it would be. I tell ya, it’s about trusting instincts. I had a bad feeling about the ACT Team in the first week and have had nothing but good vibes about Wellness City and they seem to be living up to them for my dear brother. He has connected with staff there and other participants and really enjoys a two hour group called WRAP. So far so good…..I never underestimate our blessings with John is doing well and I realize it takes a Village. Thankfully I’ve been guided to great people and resources for him and away from those which were not helpful or in some cases, harmful. So many learning curves with all of this but seems we are in a good groove now.
We had a fun Superbowl party at the house with the four of us and the Boys who joined us. I whipped out the air fryer and went on a “frying frenzy” pulling out platters of kale balls, crab rangoon, mac n cheese balls and other delicious snacky snacks.
Go Seahawks! And Bruno! 😉
I would suggest avoiding the Trader Joe’s potato lentil curls as I’m pretty sure they taste exactly like peanuts–meaning the kind you use for packing material–if you were to taste them that is. They are totally tasteless and blah and not worth the snackage! You’re welcome!
blech meets blah
basically, yes
The game of course was pretty much a dud and the commercials were so-so but it was sure fun all hanging out watching it together. Our house is really becoming a home with all of these experiences now with our people in it. I’ll be hosting some gatherings with my MFR tribe at the end of the month. I’m just so psyched to have this amazing retreat to get away to. I’m even looking forward to giving it a thorough cleaning next weekend. I love taking care of that place.
Oh and this morning, finally took down the dead brittle fire hazard Christmas tree and to the recycle lot. There were three other trees left there so we weren’t the only tardy tree people. 😉
Back to my fitbit. As I put Greg in my room this weekend, I slept at the Boys Sat. and on the couch last night. I was restless at first and not able to get very comfortable on the couch so my sleep pattern looked like this:
