I admire the grace with which you handle your challenges and live your life. You must be an inspiration to all the people who know and love you.
Love how you can continue enjoying your day even after a big seizure. How does that go again? Keep calm and carry on?
Sounds like a lovely day, except for the seizure.
Good for you!!!!! I'm sorry to hear about Sophie's seizure. But how wonderful that you were able to surround yourself with nourishing activities and good company. I can't wait to hear about day 2! Hugs, Louise
Fabulous.
except for the horrid seizure, of course.
and I know what I'm making myself for lunch. Eggs and asparagus are two of my fav. foods.
I wonder how Sophie processes the difference in the house.
A day in your life...the calm and the storm...and what would life be without friends to support you and your family...a seizure I can't even imagine. Even though it has become a part of your life for your dear daughter is has to be so scary...you are a strong woman...
perfect!!!!!

Despite the seizure- it sounds like a beautiful day. I wish I could send you some of my eggs for one of those perfect meals.
ZOMG! when I was a little girl we used to have that for lunch in Spring. The asparagus were steamed a bit and then put under the broiler with olive oil and grated Padano and a couple of perfectly fried eggs were sitting on top to be eaten with great alacrity and pane paisano.
You are cruel, here I am unable to eat and there you are, counting money in front of the poor. But I love you anyway,
Other than the seizure, it sounds like a beautiful day. Blessings to you!
Wonderful--so glad you're getting some 'me' time.
