I learned to eat with chop sticks when they're put into this plastic thing that holds them so they look like a big tweasers. I had to use a hand to find the food I was supposed to eat, but I felt so proud of myself that I did it! Dad was proud too, at least that is what he said.
I had cherry coke made with grenadine. That stuff is awesome!!
Saturday was one of those days that makes you feel happy.
I went to VLR for a discussion on transition stuff. It was a pannel thing which I really benefited from. I saw some friends I hadn't seen for a while, which was nice.
Then we went to Beep Baseball. I need to actually hit the ball... But I was close. I can hit from a tee, and am getting close to hitting from a pitch. Who'd have guessed that a half an inch makes a difference?
While there I met up with
michael_m. We tried to go to Coffee News Cafe and eat something, but it didn't work out because things were slow!I ended up going with him, Patty, her cousin (If I'm remembering correctly her name was Jennifer) and
michael_m's brother David to a Twins baseball game. The twins won! I now understand baseball more than I ever did before thanks to David's explanations. Now I'm not looking for an excuse to not go with journalism to baseball anymore!I had a great time, and it was nice not to feel isolated for a while.
I didn't fall asleep until 1245 or so, and woke up when my alarm went off at five, then again at six to say good bye to grandma. Then I slept until 9:45.
I'm pretty tired now. But I'm happy. Of course I'm sore, but that might mean that I'll get stronger. Running probably isn't the smartest thing I can do, but I can't sit around when I get my dog.
Well, I'm gonna go.
Hugs!
Nickie
