Well...I am just checking in.  I am missing my dad today.  I have been working outside during the week and remember how much my dad liked planting flowers and working in the yard.  Craig always hated yard work...he did it, but would much rather be playing golf or just playing!!

I went to a fundraiser this weekend and bid on an Olympic Hockey Stick that is signed by all of the 2010 Silver Medalist American Team.  I WON!! (I out bid)  There are only 7 in the world so I think it is really cool that I have one.  All proceeds went to a "No Kill" animal shelter.  So my bid went to a good cause...right??

I sent my registration in for the Meso Symposium in Washington DC again this year.  I will be in charge of a breakout session again, I just am not sure which one yet...time is a tickin'....  The symposium is June 9-12 and I hope I have time to prepare for whatever it is that they would like me to do.

Emily got a really good job offer!!  She is very excited.  Now she and Kyle just have to sell their condo and all the pressure of moving is off.  Except for the actual move.  She seems to love the area and is excited about the new adventure.  I am going over to their home for a Mother's Day brunch---prepared loving by them...YUM!!  Nothing could be better than that. 

My book is going sooo slow.  It is hard for me to get motivated.  I working on it, but it is two steps forward, one step back.  I decided I am not going to rush myself.  I will get it done when I get it done. 

My fistulas keep coming and going.  I went to the doctor yesterday and he said I could have surgery now or wait and see....I choose to wait.  This has been going on since December so I figure, what's the rush.  My Chrohn's has been okay, but not great.

I started yoga, playing a bit of tennis and started to swing a golf club on occasion.  So I am trying to do some things for me now.  I guess that is about it.  Just giving you an update. 

I hope you are all doing well and having a great spring......
