Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2009. I honestly did not remember this photo at all, until our Facebook friend, Tim, posted it on my page. When he did, he actually cropped it so there was no cake or context to the photo. Once he mentioned that the original photo had a cake in it that read, Thank you, I knew immediately the moment in time this photo was taken. Mattie and I took part in the ribbon cutting ceremony of the child life playroom at the hospital. After the ceremony, there was a party! Mattie typically never turned down a party, and I never turn down cake.

When it comes to winter, I would be just fine without it entirely. I do not need to have it, to appreciate the warmth and beauty of the sun and milder temperatures. Having a dog, is a reality check, because regardless of the weather and temperature, you are out walking in it. Though I am not a cold weather person, it is actually more painful to walk Sunny in the dead of summer. When the humidity is a killer and I am not sure which one of us is going to pass out on the sidewalk.
Unlike yesterday, today was a much better day. My headache was much more manageable and I could see light and hear noise again without feeling totally ill. Amazing what difference a day makes. However, now that I am re-focusing from being away, I see the ton of work before me. Before we leave next week for a conference, I literally have a list of things that must get done. These back to back trips make it hard to accomplish anything, but hopefully it will be a productive week.
