Hi.

Things are going great here. Had a very busy week. Filled with lots of fun stuff. Monday night I dropped off Josh at the airport to go on a business trip. He went to Southern California to have a little taste of summer. So needless to say I spent the whole week partying it up, trying not to dwell on the fact that I was a single woman.

Tuesday was a great night for my friend Shannon came over and we got to hang out for a bit. Then Wednesday I went to the first TBI support group for young adults meeting for new group, that just formed at the UW. It was actually really great. There were other TBI survivors there, friends and family of those survivors, and even some educators of kids with TBI. And the group is led by a guy that I went to high school with. I never knew in high school that he had a TBI but I reconnected with him at the TBI conference this year a few months ago. I think the support group will be really good for me - it'll give me a chance to connect with other people who have TBI, get lots of information, and connect me with a lot of TBI resources. Then last night my friend Erin came over and we tried to watch a movie completely unsuccessfully because my Netflix took a big dump on me but we were completely successful with eating a very tasty dinner! Pasta with meat sauce, garlic bread, and Caesar salad. A feast fit for Queens!

And I did some really fun stuff with my mom yesterday. We got to go to JC Penney and do a little shopping. I got three T-shirts, one other shirt, and two hats. The hats are my favorite things! They are freaking awesome! I got one sock monkey hat and one bunny hat. Both are super cute! If and when you run into me do ask me about them. I have pictures of both of them on my phone. And goodness knows I'd love to show you. Plus before going to JC Penney, I got to go have a really nice lunch with Josh's mom. It was great! It was super nice to get to spend some time with her and connect. I think we just might make that a pretty common occurrence.

Now Josh is home. Yay! And we've got a dinner date with our friend Ted. Super tasty Mexican food is on the docket. Beacon Hill, here we come.

And no super huge plans for this weekend. Although I do have something I'm pretty excited about for tomorrow -there's a party at my sisters house and we're going to stop by. I'm most excited to see and hang out with my sister and I'm also pretty excited to squeeze at least one of her goats. I think she said she has three. So I'll be chasing and loving on livestock tomorrow. Don't know if it gets any better than that!

That's what I got for now. Talk at you later.
