And now I'm 26.

Yep, crossed over into the second half of late 20's land, early Monday. Near as I can tell things look alright from here, though I swear I can see more wrinkles on my face.

I celebrated over a couple of days- Sunday in Seattle with a new friend, Nanako. Breakfast at Cafe Besalue in Ballard, lunched in Fremont at Roxy's, had two donuts at Top Pot downtown and then ended with dinner at Thai Tom's on the Ave near the U. I was stuffed by the end. Oh, and three different coffee drinks. Yikes. Hey, you only turn 26 once.

Monday, I had school and homework but my aunt and uncle and Stephen and Paige made me a delicious dinner: crab cakes and salad and chocolate madelines with coconut ice cream.

I started exercising today.

In other news, there are new residents at the Bee Hive...which I thank God for. I was starting to really worry about paying that mortgage payment. He provides.

I read a great book over the weekend, "Peace Like A River". It's a must-reader.
