Actually once I leave work this morning - tonight when I come in it will be my Friday. And so glad because I haven't slept that well all week. I had a follow up appointment with my knee surgeon last week. All is well and I don't need to go back until a year from now. Unless of course something pops up.
The second weekend in August we have a family reunion. I started planning it and then my sister Julie and my brother Jon and some cousins have jumped in to help. I am very grateful because there is a lot to do and as it gets closer to the date - I was beginning to feel overwhelmed and my anxiety was increasing. I have to work hard at just staying in the moment - in the day. That is where I need to be so that I don't get anxious and overwhelmed. I have been doing a lot of self talk about staying in the moment!
Our reunion is being held here at a park facility that is about 2 miles from my house. This will be the first time it won't be up north. The park has a nice pavilion with a kitchen and the city provides bocce balls, horseshoes and a volleyball. The reunion won't be as structured as previous ones. There are a lot of little kids that will need naps and with all the activities available I thought it would be easier to have less structure. If it is really hot, there is an outdoor waterpark close to the park. We also opted for a Silent Auction (it is how we raise money for the next reunion). It will be a fun time for sure.
That will be my only summer excitement. I keep looking for airfares to Connecticut but they are always pretty high when I look. I suppose I might just have to pay the money because I don't think airfares will be going below three hundred dollars like the good ol' days.
Maybe in the fall.
