Happy Half-Way Point of 2009!

hey everybody, how's life been this week? Can you believe it's the first week of June already? Half of 2009 has already gone by....amazing!

This past week has been busy. I visited my friend Tracey in the hospital - she was in a car accident early last week and overall she will be fine, but she got pretty banged up the poor thing and has some broken bones, including both of her heels. S0, she will have to wait awhile before she is walking around again. Really wishing her all the best for a fast recovery.

I also played my first game of beach volleyball at work this week (um, yah we have a beach volleyball court at work - isn't that insane??) It was alot of fun but I was fairly rusty. I have signed up for a Beach Skills Training Clinic hosted by Volleyball BC - that starts June 18th for six weeks, so I am really looking forward to learning some new stuff. It's at Shaughnessy Park in South Vancouver - I don't even know where that is just yet but I'm sure I'll find my way :)

On Thursday night I went to an old friend's grand re-opening of her shop in Deep Cove. It used to be called San Pedro Imports, but now it's called La La Home Decor. (www.lalahomedecor.ca) My friend Kristina has some amazing gifts in there! Unique jewellery, handbags, greeting cards (the really funny ones), giftware, and tonnes of other great stuff. Be sure to check it out if you are in the Deep Cove area of North Van.

And last night I went out for cocktails with the girls that I travelled to LA with, Juli, Nicole and Kerry. We went to "Joey's" on Burrard Street, which was alot of fun to see everyone again for a mini-reunion, 2 weeks later! : ) Then we went to "Yew" at the Four Seasons Hotel to meet up with two friends of Nicole's. I've never been there, and yep it was definitely very posh and foo foo shee shee . fun times!

And lastly, I wanted to mention a cool blog that my friend Gina told me about: http://www.happiness-project.com/. This lady Gretchen Rubin has some really neat ideas on happiness, people skills, and life in general. Very interesting stuff.

Have a great weekend, and thanks for stopping in!
