Sunday's

What a day. Church, Block Party, Mini Golf, Park, BBQ. What a day. I was looking forward to a run that I didn't get to do. But there is tomorrow and I have it off so maybe. I also became a new uncle today. My sister had her first daughter, what a welcomed addition!

Anyway, it is late for kids to be up, I am a sheet or two to the wind and the sun is out. This has been a weekend to remember.

Pokey

I went for a run today. As it turns out, what was once a warm up run is now my long run. Anyway. AS I was returning home a $%@ gravel truck drove by me so close it actually blew the hat right off my head. Not cool.

Enjoy the weekend, when will the sun come out!

what a day!

There is nothing like being told off which the suggestion of you suck! That's not really how my day started. It started with someone who has hopes of ICBC paying them big bucks by pretending to be depressed. Problem was it is hard to be depressed when you are grinning ear to ear and telling your therapist you can't wait to get some action. Are you freakin' kidding me??!! Then came prison dude with more tattoos then beads on a rosary. He too is depressed except when the sun is shining and when his therapist tells him there is a wait to see the psychiatrist. Then it is time to blame the world for his hardships. (forget about the man he killed, people he smuggled drugs for as well as the other assaults he is credited for. The afternoon was ripe for criticism.

The evening things changed. I lead a group for eating disordered individuals. These women spoke of the heart aches they experience as they invest in their eating disorder. How they feel shame and no sense of worth as they vomit. How they wish they had the value media tells them they are missing. Truly, from the broken lives are touched.

Twelve hours of therapy does not do a body good

Cheers (literally)

Growth

I learnt a couple of things this weekend. A ninja's weakness is his forehead. A rhubarb recipe should be followed as creative deviation sometimes fails. Old Spaghetti Factory is a poor restaurant. And a hike through the forest in the rain is fun, even if you are four years old.

It has been a good weekend. Time spent in the garden, went for a run and a neighbour popped of for beer-o'clock. I wish yesterday's weather could have been extended, but I will still take the fun I did have. A good weekend it was!

Wing night

Ahhh, found the best way to make chicken wings. There is nothing like sucking succulent carcass off some bones. The man in me wants to roar and beat my chest. Unfortunately it means deep frying the wings, which means this is a meal that won't be served often. Friday night meals are the best meals though.


All should fear the hippy Zorro. His kind comes out only at night. Woman can't resist him and men envy him. He is wild, untamable and somewhat hairy.
