Wed 5 Aug

Free day! Had fun doing DIY bubble wands with Cindy and Judy and talking about OBT at the family activity at Seramur Park yesterday. Think I'm going to skip Body Pump and do a Pilates mat since I can do both days of Strong Bodies this week. Food: 7:50 am 72 g cherry almond kringle, 102 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Tues 4 Aug

Helping Cindy at Seramur Park this afternoon with a children's activity for One Big Tent. She is a teacher so she is bringing everything and I will just do as she directs. Charm is letting us use a canopy so we won't have to sit in the direct sun. Food: 7:50 am 112 g cherry almond kringle, 105 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Mon 3 Aug

Spent some time this weekend going over the Maritimes vacation itinerary. Sent questions to Piper which I will follow up by trying to make phone contact, though I'll probably give her today to respond by email also. Decided to reserve a night at the hotel before our Park N Fly since our flight leaves at 7:05 so we have to be at the airport around 5 am. Had a nice hike at Roche-a-Cri yesterday followed by a shrimp pizza at Two Lakes. Was a lovely day. Food: 7:45 am 92 g cherry almond kringle, 102 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Sun 2 Aug

Four weeks from today we leave for the Maritimes. Getting excited, but wish we could get the confirmation information from Audley. Cantor this morning with Sandy for a visiting priest from the Salvatoreans. Weather has moderated a bit for the time. Food: 7:50 am 77 g cherry almond kringle, 101 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Sat 1 Aug

So nice to have the day free to myself, with only laundry as an obligation. I don't mind helping out the Suzuki folks by working in the store, but I am always glad when it's done. I have come to really appreciate my time. Food: 8:00 am 95 g morning bun, 105 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Fri 31 Jul

Last day of ASI and then I reclaim my free time. I'm quite ready. Holding off laundry til tomorrow since we're not planning to go anywhere and I'll have the day free. I work 9:30-12:30 and again 1:30-3:30 as Caleb isn't working today (I assume). Thankful that Duo put me in an easy group this week so I have been able to do a few less lessons when I get home tired at the end of some days. Food: 8:00 am 120 g morning bun, 102 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder

Thurs 30 Jul

Happy heavenly birthday, Mom! Miss you! Around this time in 2008, we all first went to the North Shore for Mom's 90th birthday. Only two more days of work at ASI store, and I'll be ready to reclaim my time. Food: 7:55 am 122 g cinnamon croissant, 102 g blackberries, coffee, goat milk powder
