today has been pretty good. that's fun to say. my dear sweet 24yr old son talked me into doing something very not like me. if you had seen me yesterday i had that dirty blond mousey color of hair. today it is a deep brown. i look in the mirror and don't know who i am looking at..haha the lady that lives upstairs from me has a big need for a friend and i am trying to get to know her better so that i can help her. she fell down today outside and i went to help her. i was asked by a friend to turn the green on so here it is and it is actually feeling good. who knows maybe it will be even greener tomorrow.. the lady at vocational rehab gave me homework to get to know the people at Utah Valley State College. so i will try to work on that tomorrow. i also have an appointment with my hand dr. tomorrow..it was reconstructed in 1998 and has gotten worse over time and i need to see if he can do anything to make it more usable. things are looking brighter. i guess that any time that we have an anniversary of a birthday or the day they died that we will have our moments that we need someone to lean on and i thank you all for that...lots of love jaime
