Oct. 25

Thank you Master Evins for an awesome retreat.  I enjoyed myself & continued to learn.. I find that often you help me learn more about myself.. Today was TJ'S birthday... I am still in shock he is 19 & wish I could have some of the time.back but so proud of him as he is growing. .  I have a lot of work to do & spent a large amount of time today doing so..deadlines.. deadlines.. deadlines.. everywhere..

 we really didn't do anything extravagant but I certainly enjoyed the time we spent together ... we baked him a a cake & made his favorite dinner (together). & practiced a few poomsaes..  nothing extravagant like I say but after yesterday's meditation i started thinking more about how important the little things are.. like a $1.94 box of cake mix, and just how special that can be.  One week to go. I have a crazy week ahead of me, and a body that is broken.. but.. I'm pushing thru.  One day at a time. Have a great Monday all !  I so enjoyed the time.spent with you all at the retreat !

Today i ha...
