Getting Healthy

Bummer that the Pats lost - who would of thunk it?  Just a real bummer.  Spent a nice weekend with Gram and Alice having lunch munchies and watching the game.  Very funny to watch all three of us crocheting like crazy while sitting and chatting - nice weekend.  Gram needs lots of hugs. She seems older with every visit - seems to be fading, looks tired, moves very slow.  Everyone needs to talk to gram and hug her as much as possible.  Tuscany trip coming up and she's busy thinking about what to bring - will make it a great trip!

Went on a hike after zumba class today - 7 miles round trip!  A real kick ass hike along Wellfleet's Herring bay and thorough the dunes to the ocean.  The hike is called Great Island trail.  Just beautiful.  Came upon IFAW releasing some stranded dolphins.  Has been happening all over the Cape and especially in Wellfleet harbor.  Seems they get too close then get confused at low tide and cannot get back out so beach and die.

Ocean side, Wellfleet - dolphin's destination!
Processing the final paperwork, tough days.  Have agreed to terms so should not be a big deal.  Understand it will take a few months to go through the legal steps, geez.  I want to get this all done by April.  I cannot keep thinking "what if".  No more.  Moving on.  Enough.  Really enjoying spending time with the "meetup" people.  Very comforting to be making new friends.  Fri night is a "new members meet and greet" for one of the groups at a place right down the street.  Should be fun.  Sat is "Project Linus" day with  the quilt guild.  They intend to make 150 quilts for Cape babies.  I'm bringing brownies and energy and letting them boss me around to do whatever they need.  My winter ocean quilt is coming along nicely.  Actually making two at once.  And my granny crochet afgan has all squares ( 14 rows by 14 columns) sewed together one way - was my super bowl day project.  Need to sew up the other way, frost and celebrate... steady progress.

Pulse - finding peace
