Hi again. I hope that you are doing well. I am feeling much much better today and not feeling as bad as I was this past weekend. I am feeling kind of guilty though, because in a previous blog I made this big announcement that I was going to start taking yoga classes and guess what.....I haven't started yet. Yuck. I don't like when I do stuff like that. I really WANT to start but for some reason I feel really really scared. Everybody that goes tells me that there's nothing to be afraid of but, hello, I can't even imagine myself trying some of those yoga poses. Everybody swears that it's the best workout there is so I know I need to go. The place downtown is now Hot Yoga and it used to be Bikram's Yoga. Apparently it's the best place to go but of course I have yet to find out!

So Jacob is doing really well with his new.....girlfriend....Yup you heard correctly. He actually calls her his girlfriend which is shocking because so many girls wanted to be his girlfriend and he was always like "NO WAY" and then all of a sudden, out of the blue, comes this phenomenal human being who seems to really care about Jacob. And I do remember saying that I would probably never approve of anybody for him but I have a good feeling about her. So we'll see what happens. I just want the best for Jacob. He's the best and he deserves only the best.

I'm going to go running this afternoon with my daughter, Zoya. You know I picked out her name and my ex now claims that HE picked out her name. HAH!! He wishes. That's a cool name and I liked it because it matches with her last name. She's really excited about going to Stanford and I'm really excited for her too. I thought that when all my kids were gone to college I would be really sad but I've been discovering this whole new adult life that I am loving. I love to meditate and pray every morning then I love doing the rest of the stuff I do at work and at home with my hubby. I think it might have been sad or lonely if I didn't have my hubby but my empty nest won't seem so empty now that he's with me.

Everybody at the office was really busy today, somewhat stressed out and so am I, of course, so I cam home to do my work here. It's so much quieter and I can get so much more done. Except that just now I don't feel much like working because it's such a pretty day outside (finally no wind storms!) and I just want to go outside and enjoy the beautiful day! The house is really quiet right now. The kids are at school and my hubby went to lunch with Jacob and my nephew Carlos Garcia. Carlos is a BAD ASS musician and singer. You should hear him. I'm so proud that I have such a talented family.

Well my other daughter, Tasha and her husband, have a cool dog named Rocky, right? Well, I have kind of stolen Rocky from them because I ask them to leave him here for weeks and weeks at a time. I just love him. I don't even know what kind of dog he is but he's awesome and so well-behaved, unlike my other dogs. So he's been here for the last month I would say, and last night when they came over to sort through some of the things she left behind when she moved out, they TOOK him with them!!!!! I know he's their dog but I was so sad when he didn't come when I called him to come inside when I got home. They said he's getting fat over here but that's because I feed him all kinds of good treats. He loves them. I'll let you know when they bring Rocky back.

I suppose I should get to work, huh? OK, here I go. Even though the birds are out there singing and the sun is out there shining and the weather is out there beckoning me to come on outside. Wouldn't it be really cool if we could just do what we wanted, like go outside when we wanted to instead of working sometimes? I mean, I really do love my work and my clients, there's no question about that. It's the deadlines and timelines that are getting me down right now. Yuck. But that's where I am so I'll close for now. You can tell this has been a long post. Why? Because I'm procrastinating! I'll talk to you soon. Felissa M. Garcia
