10/11/10 Happy Birthday to ME!
10/11/10
Originally I thought we would BIKE on my day off for my Birthday –
but really – we do that ALL the time & it’s not really “special”.
One thing I rarely get to do, but LIKE to do, is RELAX.
Sit & read have a cup of coffee in the morning
or a glass a wine in the evening while reading…..
I’m not really a “shopper” but needed a few things –
so after relaxing for a bit in the a.m. we
went out & ran some errands, did some shopping.

We stopped at our Firehouse to drop off our paper recyclables.
we usually just put it out for the recycle guys but the
firehouse gets money/credit for theirs.

sister Pat made a SEAFOOD dinner for me. I like seafood but
don’t eat it as often as I would like. THANKS PAT!

Poem I got for my birthday:
You’re the kind of person, Helen,
Who’s hard to forget,
A one-in-a-million
To the people you’ve met.
Your friends are as varied
As the places you go,
And they all want to tell you
In case you don’t know:
That you make a big difference
In the lives that you touch,
By taking so little
And giving so much!
Who’s hard to forget,
A one-in-a-million
To the people you’ve met.
Your friends are as varied
As the places you go,
And they all want to tell you
In case you don’t know:
That you make a big difference
In the lives that you touch,
By taking so little
And giving so much!
~ Mike Dooley

What would helen do? 
You got Vibrams? Cool! Are you running? Or are you wearing them biking? Do you like them?
The Vibrams have been an adventure. No running in them yet. Walking the dogs is about as active as I’ve been in them so far. The "jury" (as in ME) is still out on the verdict of whether I like them or not. My understanding is it takes a little bit to get used to them. I’m going to TRY and journal the experience to determine when the "Epiphany" comes & I decide i LOVE them (or not). We’ll see…..
