for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

So this weekend we went to the Vally - just for one night - but it was so great. to be able to sit and talk with our parents (both sets). I love that they are our friends. its so nice be just be around them.

We also got to see our Brand New Niece. Danelia is beautiful. She's quite and smells so good. I love baby smell.

I'm gonna be a AUNT

First - Woot Woot
Second - it's AUNT - not 'Ant'

Third - Her name is Danelia Karen Skafte.
Forth - She was born at 8:05 pm... and 7 lbs heavy.


Can you imagine 14 hours of labour... ouch.
Sigh Swoon... one day I'll have a baby - I hope sooner than 14 hours

The three day weekend

Thrusday was a great night...
Friday was theraputic...
Saturday was busy...
And then Sunday came a long...

So much got done, and so little was accopmlished.


We had hoped that Holly and Justin would be able to come and visit... but alas that could not happen. I miss her so much, and I miss Justin too.. don't get me wrong it's just that I lived with Holly, it's a little different.

Where was I - oh yes... the weekend. Since holly and Justin couldn't make it David and I planned on going to the memorial service for rememberance day... and then out to dinner with Mike and Jen.

Saturday we shopped, all mornign - got most of the christmas gifts. It's great to get most of the stuff now not in a rush. Also we got our chirstmas tress... it's great - I want to put it up now.. but i'll have to wait a bit longer - i'm thinking Nov 20th is a good round number.

Today was so busy - Serive, sunday school, meeting, more meeting, and then home... sigh... so busy.

That is it - I know it's not a huge update... but it's an update... ciao

And then there was this...

I love my life... except for all the friggin' curve balls... I didnt' even want to play the freakin' game...

Life is going well. it really is. I have a wonderful husband, I have a job that I love. I have friends and family... i have my health - kinda.

I know it's not the end of the world. but knowing that i have OsteoArthritis that has no cure, that has no positive impact, that will hurt only when i bend my knee. It just kinda bogs me down. I was so ok with knee pain that phsio woudl fix.. but know - nope they took some x-rays, and I have to patches of arthritis, one under my knee cap, and one in the middle of my joint. this means as the years go by, give or take a couple of months... the bones crush the cartilage... cartilage begins to degenerate by flaking or forming tiny crevasses. In advanced cases, there is a total loss of the cartilage cushion between the bones of the joints. Loss of cartilage cushion causes friction between the bones, leading to pain and limitation of joint mobility so umm ouch....


Meh.
