fave five

It is Friday again and here are a few … or five… highlights from my week:
1. shopping with mother.
even though I had the hurt-ie shoes on it was a fun afternoon. she found a perfect pashmina scarf to go with her pretty pinkish dress for the big party next month… and some pretty shoes… and appropriate undergarments. i found a pretty bright pink sheer ruffled neck shirt and cute 3/4 sleeve hot pink jacket … and cool circle silver necklace. It’s good to find a best buy!
2. reorganizing emelia’s room pt. 1.
first i have to say… ugh. but it is a good thing and pt. 2 will hopefully happen this afternoon. she is home today after calling to come home from school yesterday with a tummy ache. she was very tired and mostly slept yesterday with no real symptoms. today she is tired but feeling better. the little girl who sits across from her in school has strep throat. she says her throat does not hurt. we’ll see.
3. reba.
and tivo. we finally got a dvr in our bedroom. i am totally loving it and have all kinds of shows like reba recorded. it is awesome. reba cracks me up.
4. getting my hair done.
and not a moment too soon! i had an appointment on the sixth that didn’t happen so i finally got to go yesterday. i got more blonde highlights and all trimmed up. no major changes.
5. watching izzy pedal.
i have lots of new video of izzy pedaling the bike at school thanks to melanie. i left my camera at school to capture the bike ride. i arrived about half way through. i am going to post it soon. she was just pedaling along. so cute. when she stalled out in front of her old class the little kids cheered “go izzy go!” i can’t say enough how much me and izzy heart those people at school. they are wonderful… michelle (izzy’s para) is like a mom at school… she loves izzy and takes such good care of her, melanie (vt and izzy’s teacher) is so good at pushing izzy and finding fun new things to do. she is like an in house cheerleader… she encourages all the kids. camilla (pt) has been working with iz for years and doesn’t give up on her. she keeps pushing her. (ps camilla i listened to that song last night you mentioned and you are right. the words are amazing)… and margaret (st) who pushes for izzy to communicate and always looks for new and innovative ways to make that happen. what a team. there is also the ots… heather and karen who i don’t see much, but they are also very special and sweet!
now i’m going to go finish emelia’s room. wish me luck. ugh.
Go visit Susanne for more faves…





My daughter watched Reba while she was here a few months and can be quite funny! No dvr for my room yet but that would be nice.
You didn’t do your own hair? You seem to do everyone else!

What a nice list! It’s great you have so many encouragers for Izzy. I know the feeling of having a new hairdo – it just makes life seem sweeter!
God bless!

Just think how good you will feel when Emelia’s room is all done.
“Hurt-ie” shoes. Too funny but I know those shoes!

You must enjoy shopping with your mom so much–that is so great.
I’m so grateful there are hairdressers out there to do hair–it always feels so good when it’s done.
Hooray for Izzy doing so well. How exciting.
