Rite of Spring

Kate invited Monet and I to the ballet

 It was the Rite of Spring opening night at Ballet West. 

As I was sitting there in the theater I was acutely aware of my senses:

I was thinking about what I was experiencing at that very moment - I didn’t let the beauty of the ballet and this day slip by unnoticed. 

500” Party

Alta

I will be not afraid 

I will not especially be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful

To believe that as I give to the world

The world will give to me

The universe is waiting to give me so much

I am opening my arms 
And my eyes

 

Wonder

Of the moment

After dance class tonight I was able to clear my mind of my thoughts and so I was able to enjoy the wonder of the moment. 

Nature 

To see the beauty all around me 

To smile spontaneously 

To laugh

To love

To live again
 

My Life

Has Changed

 I heard someone in Al-Anon tonight that when they open their eyes in the morning they also open their ears. 

Now when I wake up: 

I listen for birds 

I eat breakfast before making plans

I prefer to take time to appreciate my favorite part of the day. 

Out like a lamb

 Although March has been snowy like a lion - it is going out like a lamb and the flowers are loving it. I am too. The sunshine on my face when I walk out of work is a much appreciated feeling that I’ve been missing without even knowing it. 

Sky is the limit

I helped Morgen move into his new apartment yesterday

Sticker Earned 

 

Nurse Manager

My nurse manager is retiring in June and called me to her office today to tell me she thinks I should apply.

 I will think about it over the weekend I told her and talk to Martin. 

Working for the Weekend

Spring ski

Watching the Red Bull Cascade 

Competitors practice for the weekend 

 

After Dance

Fritz’s leg is healing 

And he is able to take a little bit longer walks now

To see the sunsets

 

Fantasy Ridge

I climbed Fantasy Ridge

And turned around to see my snow covered reflection

And the landslide did not bring me down

 In my all-anon family group tonight the topic was fantasy versus reality. An example that kept popping into my head was climbing up fantasy ridge on Sunday. I had to overcome my fears by embracing the fact that I could literally die if I slipped down off the ridge line while climbing up and how scary that was for me. I forced myself to focus on the step right in front of me and not look down.

First Day of Spring

The crocus in the hidden garden are popping out 

 

Last day of winter

To celebrate a great winter season

Of course 

We went skiing 

 

North Pole

I welcomed Martin home last night 

After I shoveled heavy snow off of the driveway and warmed up in the bath

I dressed up as Mrs. Claus and held this sign at the airport at midnight when his flight got in

 I was super tired for work this morning at 6:00 and for the last of our dance classes tonight. 

Snow Day

Woke up to this outside my bedroom window 

 

As Luck Would Have It

On this St. Patty’s Day

Morgen had his court hearing

The judge postponed the hearing due to the toxicology report coming back negative

So he gets another couple of months 

 Before the next hearing. I went to walk Fritz at Monet’s lake house since Martin is in Phoenix for US Tag. 

We watched ”Wicked” together afterwards and ate popcorn and talked. What a beautiful night.
