Friday, 8/23/2013

 

Day 235, 8/23/2013 - Eat, my usual Friday stop at Starbucks was good for breakfast and lunch. My chocolate smoothie with two shots of espresso and the ham and New York cheddar sandwich to keep me going until dinner. Starbucks puts a "fortune like" sticker on every sandwich,  today's said "deliciously ever after." It's like a little extra treat with every sandwich, kinda cool. Dinner was with friends, Kari and Alys, Romano's Macaroni Grill. We enjoyed a 30% off coupon and chose appetizers,  wine and entrees well. The appetizer was Italian nachos with crispy light chips, Italian sausage, fried ravioli,  cheese, peppers, etc. Very different but very good. I chose lobster ravioli for my entrée and we shared chocolate gelato for dessert, yum! Pray, my prayers were for my friend, Angie, who had her port removed today in a day procedure. Exciting for her that she no longer needs the port. Prayers answered as she did well and went home as scheduled. Joy, my joy is in my saying yes to most invitations since my divorce. There was a time when I was very stuck in a rut and might just go home on a Friday night giving any number of  reasons or excuses. Then my life totally changed and turned on a dime. Life is short and I have decided to live in the moment and not ever be stuck in a rut. To never let anxiety of not knowing where I am going get in the way of going there. So, when people ask me to do something, I generally say yes and enjoy each new experience and the people I meet along the way.
