Cold but sunny.  Bright sun lighting up the back yard.  The grass is coming up brilliant green.  Well , o.k.,  it's true we have a lot of dandelion out there.  Our front lawn is one big splotch of yellow.  Hopefully Andy and Andrea can help with that.  Without killed birds and butterflies.  

Luke and I left extra early to get to the chiropractor on time.  We had a fight on the drive up.  I'm not sure why we were so ikky with each other.  I was all sorry for myself.  Poor me.  I got up early and didn't do any of my asanas and all to spend time with Luke.  And here he is being uglly with me.  Poor Ashley.  Then I thought.  Why waste more of my life on this.  It will work out somehow.  And I moved on.  

Amy the secretary/receptionist at Dr K's has the cutest little boy--AJ.  He says cute things.  He and his dad were looking at some airplanes soarng across the sky.  Dad asked AJ if they would be taking a flight soon.  AJ said someday but not yet.  

On the drive home from Dr K's ,  Luke and I talked about subjects that were pleasant and not associated with any hot topic.  

At home I made his lunch because he didn't have time.  I put in extra berries and all was well again.  Why waste good life on fussiness.  Eventually life changes and then the very thing you were worried about or arguing about has changed.  It reminds me of when I used to use skimmed evaporated milk in my coffee.  I got attached to it.  Once there was a storm in the area where we lived.  The trucks couldn't run,  and the market had -can you believe it--run out of skimmed evaporated milk.  I loved this product and felt that I couldn't stick to my diet without it.  So I was miserable.  How could I survive without my precious.  

Now I hate skimmed evap.  It makes the coffee look green and watery.  It takes terrible.  I would rather drink black coffee than to put that terrible stuff into my brew.  Things change.  

I picked up Boston Chicken for our dinner.  I found two coupons that still had play.  These were coupons that I almost threw away beacuase they were singles and I always buy two meals.  

Then I picked up the banking and got that done.  Back at Nature's Market there were boxes waiting for me and some fun customers to help.  The evening went fast.  

 After work,  we went to Em and Bobby's house.  Em is going to Israel for almost two weeks.  We're going to miss her.  MKate ,  Luke and I,  and my sis all sent notes for Em to take to Israel.  She will visit the wall of prayers and put the notes--which are notes to God--into the sacred stones of the wall.  Hopefully all our wishes will come true.  

Israel is holy land and I know that Em will have a wonderful,  transformational visit.
