i think i can i think i can

well, yesterday was the biggest day yet.

as a valentines day sweet treat for my mom and me, my dad gave us pedicures. so yesterday my mom and i went to the nail salon in downtown los gatos to get manicures and pedicures. it was so nice and relaxing. so nice to be pampered. and now i feel extra cute...with my "fishnet stockings red" toes.

it was a bit of a wake-up call, though. turns out i can walk about as fast as a turtle. i felt a little silly among the hustle and bustle of downtown los gatos...and here i am creeping along...barely crossing the street in enough time.

we were out for a total of 2 1/2 hours and i came home and could not keep my eyes open. i wasn't really in too much pain. but i was exhausted.

but then we were both cheered up by a visit from cassie green. cassie green who grew up on cambridge street with us. cassie green who i haven't seen in probably 20 years. cassie green who now has a beautiful 10-month old ava.

it was so nice to see her. and to find out that we're in the same profession.
it's nice to have those connections that, no matter how long you go without seeing someone, you still feel connected just cause you grew up on the same street.


and so far today?...i haven't felt any serious pain...10 days a charm?

Meghan, that's exactly how I feel about your mother and your aunt Susan...

So glad to see each day brings more relief and healing.

Love the color you chose for the toes!!
