This weekend was absolutely crazy!! 1st my sinuses are trying to send me to a looney bin!!! Can you believe their draining again!!! I think Dr. Sugihara may give me my own parking space at the Allergy and Asthma Center. But it was an exciting weekend none-the-less, my cousin's wife flew in and I finally got a chance to meet her - very sweet girl. Then my super good buddy Toninet had a birthday soiree - complete with all the trimmings. And finally today there was the best dang cooking class....bar-none.

Today we did desserts. I did chocolate molten cakes!! And man were they good, like do a little happy dance in a circle good. Arum did Butterscotch Brownies with Caramel Sauce - oh my goodness!!! New shoes, 8 hours later, no pain good!!! And Carlos did a scratch pound cake - sweet mercy!!! Not only was his cake good, it was pretty too. Needless to say, I'm fully sugared up and amped like you wouldn't believe.

Next week promises to be just as jam packed with excitement and friends. Next Saturday kicks off 4 consecutive weekends of 5k runs and 3 consecutive weekends of social functions. Man!! I love this busy stuff!!!

March Madness

March has been crazy so far and its only half over. The 5k circuit is still great fun - I've added 3 more to my schedule for May. My first one was about 2 weeks ago and I beat my goal by 10 minutes. My goal for the next one coming up in about 2 weeks may prove to be just out of my grasp but I'm hopeful none-the-less. A buddy is supposed to participate with me but we'll see. I will keep you posted on that. I started working with weights this week - oh the agony!!!

The cooking class I'm in at my church is so much fun. The teacher is awesome, he is very easy going and makes you feel really comfortable even when you don't have a clue. This week we made stuffed bell peppers - and they were really good. I ate one in class and I'll be having the other for lunch tomorrow. Yippee!!!

The Tarrant County Race for the Cure is coming up in just a few weeks, so I will be working on fundraising for that and beefing up my team. Unfortunately, my mom won't be able to walk in this one but God willing she will be able to walk in the Dallas Race for the Cure in October.

Until next time - have a socially relevent day!!!
