Hello all! Yes, it's really me!

Oh yeah, I broke my foot. Please don't ask how. It's embarrassing and I'm tempted to lie and say I was doing something extreme and daring. Alas I'm not that cool.


I have to say a few good things have come out of this crappy inconvenience of mine, one of them being help with number 23 on my list here. Ask for help. If friends offer, accept. Being that I broke my right foot, I have had to swallow my pride and need to do everything on my own and ask my dear friends to help me with my necessary driving. It seems silly to be so prideful but there is nothing more humiliating than asking your husband to go to the store to buy your "feminine products", especially when you're used to running errands of that variety on your own.

I have to say that I have the most amazing friends....they have offered carpools, dinners, errands and babysitting. It has been a frustrating week with another frustrating 7 weeks to go, but with the help of my friends it seems alot more bearable.


Before I broke my foot, I was trying new recipes to make for my special dinner. (#10/#25) I tried this Arugula,Tomato, and Parmesan salad and it was DELICIOUS!!! Fresh Veggies from the farmers market and fresh cheese from the store. Yum. I think I'm off to a good start. I'm not sure how many gourmet meals I'll be creating in the next month and a half but it feels good to be able to make something yummy.

XO
