People tell me I've softened. My body certainly has, but I believe they mean my personality. I wonder why? Maybe it's because I am the mom of the most amazingly sweet and angelic puppy that ever lived and the funniest (and sweet, but don't tell her) toughgirl (reminds me of me), Jax. Maybe it's my relatively low stress level. Maybe it's that I have such a great family, a beautiful place to live that will just become even more beautiful thanks to my dad. Maybe it's that I have such a kind, sweet and loving husband. Maybe it's that I have such incredible friends and I'm always meeting really great people. Maybe I'm just HAPPY!

I've been spending my time doing yoga, running into old friends, stripping an old chair to be reupholstered, jogging, digging a big hole, hiking stairs (Sundays at 10 am), hanging out while Diesel and Utah wrestle, and working once in awhile. Life is good. We got some preliminary drawings to peruse for the upstairs remodel. It's time to let go and let the house be something different. When all is said and done it will have quite a different look AND it will be so much more functional! We will have at least twice as much usable space. We are also finishing (waterproofing, repairing, replacing, updating, etc...ing) the basement. Marco has become quite the home improvement dude!
I love to be busy!!
