Visit the Grand Canyon
Helicopter Tour 10 months ago

When I visited Las Vegas, I took a helicopter tour with a company called Papillon. The helicopter took off from the airport to the Grand Canyon. Had lunch there and flew over the strip on the way back. It was very much worth it! The canyon is breathtakinly beautiful!



eliminate clutter (read all 3 entries…)
a work in progress 10 months ago

i have been workig on this for the past few days and i have been making good progress. i’m getting better at throwing away stuff. my deadline is this friday, january 2nd. i need to work a bit faster to see if i can make it. my only setback is my mother, she wants me to help her at her place. i want to help her but i feel torn between her needs and mine. also, everytime i try to help her with her clutter we end up fighting because she wont throw ANYTHING away, and this exasperates me so. keeping clutter is a disease of the mind and i wish there was a little pill to cure it.



visit my elderly aunt every other month (read all 2 entries…)
i finally did it after more than a year 10 months ago

two days ago i made the 40 minute drive to visit my 93 year old aunt and it was soooo rewarding. i took her roses and her favorite fruit. we talked, looked at pictures, and laughed while reminising about the old times. it felt great bonding with her while i held her frail hands and told her how much i loved her. i plan to return again in february. i dont want to let a whole year go by again, without seeing her. she means a lot to me and i want to be there for her while there’s still time, before she passes away. i know i can do this.
