12/3/10 nail salon, dinner & movie
12/3/10
I had off from work today – YAY!
Had an early appointment with the new doctor for blood work & EKG –
(not that anything is WRONG – it’s a family history thing).
Then enjoyed a couple hours at the SPA……

Michael & I made plans to have dinner with friends & then
see a movie afterwards. We went to Galasso’s in Frenchtown, NJ.
It’s about an hour from Ivyland.

We love this pizza – called Arugula Pizza.
We ordered a few slices to share as appetizers.
|
 |
|
friends Tom, Mary & Joyce shared this pizza.
|
 |
|
We usually only get pizza but tonight I wanted to try
one of their entrees. Basa fish with artichokes,
tomatoes, capers over spinach. Real good!

We came HERE to see a movie.
|
Located in Lambertville, NJ
(about 30 minutes from Ivyland).
It used to be an old grocery store – ACME.
Now they use it for town hall meetings
& movies, apparently!
The movie we saw was really quite awesome.
It was called RIDE THE DIVIDE.
http://www.ridethedividemovie.com/
It’s about the world’s toughest mountain bike race,
which traverses over 2700 miles
along the Continental Divide in the Rocky Mountains.
The film weaves the story of three characters’ experiences
with immense mountain beauty and small-town culture
as they attempt to pedal from Banff, Canada
to a small, dusty crossing on the Mexican border.
 |
|
After the movie we planned to surprise a friend
from the bike club with a Birthday Cake.
Actually – WE were the ones surprised –
because Jim was a NO-SHOW!!!
|
Happy Birthday anyway JIM!!!

??? Letting go isn’t about winning or losing.
It???s not about pride, it???s not about dwelling on the past.
It???s not about loss or defeat.
It???s learning, experiencing, and growing.
Letting go is to be thankful of the moments
that made you laugh, made you cry, made you grow.
It???s about all that you have and all that you had.
It???s the courage to accept change
and the strength to keep moving.
It???s growing up. ??? ~ Kristian Carl
