jianantonicI believe I've mentioned a time or two that this was one of the happiest weekends of my life. I had such a complete blast. One more super cute kid thing from the brunch this morning -- one of the little girls in the wedding party was named Somtso. She's 3, from Tibet, and Adrian was having a little trouble with her name. So I asked her if she could spell it for him. She goes "Two O's, Two S's one M, and one of these" and she made a "T" with her fingers. She was so completely adorable. She did walking somersaults up my body for about an hour this morning, until she ran out of the energy to propel herself over anymore.
Last night at the dance party, I was dancing with my nieces and lifting them into the air and spinning them around, and all the other kids started lining up so I'd do that with them, too. All that partying caught up with me this afternoon when I got back to my parents' house, and I fell asleep with my computer on my lap and my hands on the keyboard. I slept right through the work phone call I'd scheduled for 4 -- I did wake up when the phone rang, but was too zonked to care. I ended up making up the call at 6, so it's all good.
Since my brother took a job at Etsy last year, he's been really pushing everyone in the family to shop there. I ordered a couple of things last week, and I've spent some time this evening "supporting my brother." He owes me some money, so I told him he could pay me back by buying something out of my favorites. So I'm hoping for a fun surprise.
Things are really good. I've realized another awesome change I'm seeing in myself is that it's just so much easier for me to find joy in things. In the past, I used to (unconsciously) seek out reasons to be in a bad mood, and now when those things come up, I just sort of shrug them off. Even the headaches I've been getting are crazy annoying, but they don't ruin a day for me. I had a pretty fierce one all day yesterday, but it was still one of the best days ever. And I'm seeing some doctors this week, so hopefully I'll get those figured out and gone forever.
I love seahorses.
