Tomorrow my daughter turns 10. Yes, it is true that time really does fly by. I was in my 30's (sniff, sniff). I'd quit my job at the cooking school (actually, due to circumstances, I had flung my keys at the owner and stormed out. Not recommended if you actually want a reference letter, but that is a long and complicated story.) In that time, I had a great stint at an investment company and rose through the ranks, had my son who is almost 7, put on a few pounds (sniff, sniff) and started this gig. My husband has done 6 Ironmans and shaved his head. We've been to Disneyland 4 times and have a torpedo of a pug named Hugo. To tell you the truth, she is not too happy about leaving the single digits behind. She's not ready to become a Tween, and I guess I don't really want her to either. But I am so very proud of her and all her accomplishments, her empathy, her sweetness, her persistence and everything about her. She is definately high maintenance and I pity the boy/man that falls in love with her. But she is amazing and beautiful. (And she is in the front yard right now talking to a boy.....hmmm)
It's been a good week on the gargoyle side of things too - I've been accepted into the Harrison Festival of the Arts in July, the Steveston Farmers Markets and Creative Finds in November. Still waiting for a few more responses from other markets and then the year will be squared away.
BTW - we saw the Secret World of Og at Carousel Theatre. Such Fun! They do such a good job there. Can't wait to see Robin Hood in the fall and Frog & Toad next spring.
Got to go - karate tonight and off to make a birthday cake.
