i have to say....what an incredible weekend!
i went from taking friday off work with a cold...then a miraculous recovery that i chalk up to rest, oregano oil and cold fx.
saturday took the day slow.... hanging out with jason. then in the evening we went to shelly’s 10th annual 30th birthday at the afghan horseman. joelle was our server who i haven’t seen in years so that was a little odd but nice.
bellydancing at the horseman...
afterwards jason and i decided to take the granville island water taxi then walk threw the downtown saturday mayhem and head to the “new” irish heather. it’s not as good as the old one...way too new looking. we had a awesome time regardless just chatting and drinking pints. turned into a bit of a late night...but what the heck we were enjoying ourselves.
to top off an almost perfect weekend....i got my scooter back and it's running like a charm!!! yippie! :) now i need to get some practice time in before all the winter rain sets in.

sorry i have no photos today....
having a pretty nice yet low key weekend so far. right now i'm procrastinating about doing paperwork so updating my blog seemed like a good thing to do.
last night i made a lovely meal for jason and myself. my special lamb chops w/ curry dry rub. jason was without children for the first time in a month so i thought it be nice to make it a relaxing one. "who is this jason guy anyway?"...imagine people saying to themselves. well he's the guy i've been dating lately....and i have to say he's a pretty darn good catch. ;) he has two awesome little boys owen...6 (almost :) and liam 7....who live with him full time except the odd weekend here and there. sorry i have pics....you can put a faces to the names another day.
today after a nice long lie in i meet with ani, liz, mark and some other scooter peps at continental and we went on a lovely ride to deep cove. we stopped at the raven pub. i snuck charlie in her bag...she's an awesome dog for that...no one ever notices her under the table.
what a wonderful sunday i have to say. :) and now....paper work.....

laying on the grass...
someone reminded me the other day how great laying on the grass feels.
i needed some down time today so after a doggie walk and a coffee at jj’s on main....i went to a park nearby and lay under a fig tree for awhile....it was good. just what i needed.
a little later on i met jason and his kids at a skate park on broadway and we hung out.....
we found this wrecked kids bike at the skate park...so we placed it in the community garden. it looks like garden art now.
jason skating
everyone was pretty hungry and tired after the park so jason figured the mongolian grill might hit the spot...and it did.
it was a nice day. i should lay in the grass more often...and so should you....

healing.....
the last few weeks i’ve been thinking a lot about healing. healing old wounds. i'm starting to believe that all wounds have the capacity to be healed no matter how deep....if we allow them to be.
for a long time i’m pretty sure i had closed myself off to that idea. now....now i open. i realise it means i open myself up to venerability as well but also to the possibility of healing.
i got a glimpse of what could be.....and it looked pretty sweet.

laughter is contagious
you know when you're doing sometime mundane and your mind starts wondering.....you start thinking of something funny someone did or said. then you just start laughing out loud seemingly (to those around you) for no reason at all. they look at you....are you ok?!
that happened to me today a work and it felt great!! my co-worker thinks i’m crazy...nothing new....but it was great!

a dream....
a while ago...in april maybe...i had a dream.
i dreamt of a man... kneeling down on the ground...at work. he had distinctive, blonde messy straight hair. i couldn't see his face...b/c his head was in his hands. i saw machinery all around him. can't tell you what kind...i didn't recognise them. devastated and not able to function he said to me clearly...yet crying....a cry that would break anyone's heart...."i'm sorry jojo...i'm just not ready"
tonight i thought about that dream. actually ani reminded me of it....
