Ahh Thursday. We love you so much! Today has rocked! I was in the lead with my hiking team, (a first, I'm usually in the back), AND did the bonus hill, called Big Daddy. It wasn't really that big, but I am glad that I pushed myself! Yesterday I was just really really tired, came back after lunch to take a quick nap and slept through Open Gym and my pool class... Whoops! got a wake up call and hit the next one though. Very VERY sad to be losing some friends this week. Trying really hard not to focus on it too bad or I will be a mess, it will not be the same here with these ladies gone; Debi, Jenn, and Wendy. Have not made any connections with the Week 2 group yet other than with the New Debbie on our hiking van, but she will be gone at the end of this week as well. Luckily Lyndee and Tamme are here for a few more, 2 more for Lyndee and one more for Tamme. I can't believe I am almost 2 weeks down!! Bought my second knee brace, (first one was too small), this one is too big! Hope to be able to squeeze that smaller one on, but all in all I am holding it together. Missing my little boy sooooo much. He got 4 new pairs of shoes, how could I miss that? Well,  off to open gym again, love you all!
