Week In Review 11-18-12

Highlight:  3 this week

1.) 11-11-12 to 11-12-12 Journeyed to Plano since Sarah was in town briefly for a friend's wedding.  Enjoyed spending time with Mike, Michelle, Max, Sarah, Mom.  Max is enamored of dump trucks and job sites - so precious.  Loved reading "Dinosaurs" to him Sunday night.  Presented to two of Mom's middle school classes about love of Reading with Sarah.  Sarah represented that you can not be crazy about reading in school and still develop a love of reading later on.  I represented that strong female protagonists in Madeleine L'Engle's books inspired me to the work I do in organizing around women's health.

2.) Spent some quality time with Greg going to see "Sky Fall" on Wednesday and then at the Southern Barter Association annual holiday event on Thursday, after which we went out for prime rib at The Faded Rose.  Yummy!

3.) 11-17-12 saw the play "Pass It On" about the founders of Alcoholics Anonymous at Argenta Community Theater with Nad.  Funny, informative characterization of Bill W. and Dr. Bob Smith's journey to the creation of AA.  The best company I could have asked for to see it with.  Introduced Doris and Nad, finally.

Lowpoint:  Realizing exactly how tight my budget is.

Belly Laugh:  "What matters most in life is not how much money you have.  It's about quotes and stuff that tell you what life is really all about and here is a picture of a cat."
