* First of all, we would not be sipping on vanilla tea. It would have to be one of the other billion kinds of tea we can find here in Kuwait. Vanilla tea has gone MIA for the past month! (Insert summer-shopping-list reminder HERE).
* It's TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK!!! Thank you to all of the INCREDIBLE PEOPLE who put their heart and soul into today's youth :)
* Apprentice Update: Star Jones is the most annoying person EVER. I actually appreciate Nene's giant outburst towards her. As for our #1 pick? It's hard to say - but Mr. Rich's charity (St. Jude Children's Research Hospital) is a good one to root for!
* My first week of training with Phil was ________________. (Still trying to find a word for it). Let's just say my arms were sore for three days! I couldn't wash my hair, shake a ketchup bottle, or reach for the peanut butter jar!!! Yesterday I did a lower body workout and I am proud to say that I LOVED it! I have full mobility in my legs today!!!
* Our marathon training program with "The Running Room" has officially begun. It's actually really exciting to be apart of an online clinic! I am having fun reading the textbook, bragging about my coach (HELLO IRONWOMAN!), and studying the material presented in each module. It's like being back at school.....I just wish there was a beautiful library around to make cue cards at!!! (Haha, shout-out to UNIVERSITY LIFE!!!)
* Mail is a funny thing. Some of you received our India postcards almost immediately, while others are still waiting! I'm not even sure my Dad received his birthday card yet and that was sent in February in order to arrive by his April 3rd celebration!!!
* Phil has finished his basketball and soccer try-outs for next year. He was quite excited to get back into sports this week and I was quite excited to give him my input on why he "has" to pick certain kids! Although he ignored me, I really enjoyed my occasional "but he's so SWEET!!! YOU CANNOT cut him!!!" remark. Apparently you don't get brownie points for "sweetness" when it comes to real-deal athletics. Worth a shot.
* My Blackberry has stopped giving me facebook alerts, which I find (ironically) alarming! I wish I was a kid from the "new generation" - able to navigate technological equipment from birth.
* The Royal Wedding was AMAZING. Can't they have a do-over this weekend? Just to try and top it? I dream of another princess gathering :)
* Breakfast for dinner is the best meal anyone could ask for. And so....to celebrate an end to the first week in May, we shall enjoy BLUEBERRY PANCAKES for dinner, whilst singing along to Jack Johnson's classic "Banana Pancakes". Sidenote: Whenever we make pancakes together I am reminded of "Lindsay and Phil: The Beginning" <---- I should specify that this refers to the beginning that commenced after hating each other.
* "May the fourth be with you". I received many messages about this yesterday and had no clue what was going on. I was actually concerned that something bad was going to happen in the world. Then I turned on the news and laughed at the Stars Wars reference. Ah-HA! Makes sense now. Next year, I'll be ready!
That's about all for now. How was your tea, my dear?
Missing you,
Love L & P
