I went over to Ari and Kristine’s house yesterday. Ben drew me a bunch of pictures. He was very excited about doing the drawings for me. Both he and Joshua were just very lovable, and kept asking me all kinds of questions, and wanting to show me everything. Just adorable. Be sure to see the rest of them.

Friends

August 10th, 2005

For those of you who have talked to me recently, know that I have been going through some relationship struggles. One of my good friends sent me this message, which I thought was a great way to keep thinking about everything. She said,

“You know, just one of the many things I admire about you is your ability
to pick other people up when they are feeling down. It is probably much
more difficult to do that for yourself so let others help you. You have a
huge network of friends who wouldn’t hesitate to be there for you. And no
matter what happens, don’t lose your great outlook on life.”

I made one of my favorite meals. Salmon with lemon pepper, fresh steamed green beans, and some bread.

Yum yum! If you haven’t tried Salmon with just lemon pepper, I highly recommend it. I learned it from my friend Tantek
