This year, for my birthday, my familia and I spent the day in San Antonio at the market.  I loved it!  The color! The sights! The sounds! The smells!  I couldn't get enough of it.

My sweetie pie bought me a fabulous dia de los muertos tiled mirror! It's awesome!

TATTED!

Roy got his first tattoo today and I must say - he did it RIGHT!! 

Personally, I did not thoroughly think out my first tatt (which I got at about age 21).  

But Roy's is definitely a keeper - and he said it didn't even hurt. Not fair! Mine always hurt!

Breathing again

I started a new job last week. Same field (legal secretary), different firm. I've worked in this field for about 14 years now, and I had been employed at the last firm (ASNS) for 7 1/2 years. It wasn't easy to leave ASNS because although I had been very unhappy since I started working there, I had a strong sense of security. I'd been offered positions with other firms through the years and turned them down, sometimes turning down a lot more money because I had felt my sense of security ASNS, as well as knowing what I could expect at the firm, outweighed the money (madness, I know). Until I was approached and offered a position H&L and everything just seemed to feel right (the timing, the security, the people). Still, it wasn't easy to leave ASNS, but it was easier to make the decision to accept this position, than it had been in the past to turn down the others. And I love H&L. The people are great, the job requirements are demanding but in a good way. I feel rejuvenated.

So, I went for a run tonite (it's easy to get back to my running when I just feel good).

Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter,

the sweetest person I have ever known.  

To know you is to KNOW true love.  

Everyday you amaze me with your compassion and generosity.

I can only aspire to be deserving of you.
