So Busy

I am finally coming up for air.  These past few weeks have included working on Saturdays, late hours and lots of verbal over stimulation.  The days also included lots of chocolate which I love, but tends to cloud my brain.  Today so much better  with a Saturday off, a yoga class in the morning followed by Lap Sit story time at the library, and a toddler gear swap.  A toddler gear swap is a great way to pass on your hand me downs and come home with nused (new used) clothes for your child.  We had ours at the library after story time.  I came home with 2 boxes of girl clothes for a family we know that could use a little extra help.  It is such a great way to give and receive.   We realized we have lots of boys in our community and not many toddler girls.  Slim pickings on the toddler boy clothes.

I am now the proud owner of these Black Diamond Trecking Poles.  My hubby gave them to me for my birthday which was on Thursday.  This is a sign that I might be not as strong as I used to be.  I love hiking with trecking poles because my knees are not always happy with me when I do lots of uphill hiking.  I may exchange them for a set that folds down and can be tucked on the outside of a backpack.
