This morning I ran 9 miles and included one of the hilly parts of the Giants Race that’s coming up in mid-June. Unfortunately I miscalculated the rest of the route and ended up 3 miles short of 9 miles. So, I had to run past my house (so painful!) and go another 3 miles before heading home for breakfast.

Last Sunday it was Mother’s Day but many of us at work didn’t have their mom’s nearby. However, our dear friend Mai was in town and she wanted to have a picnic. So, the girls at work and I planned a pool party at my place. We all gathered outside by the BBQ and Jes fired up the grill for the skirt steak, kabobs, corn, and chicken wings. It had rained that morning but the sun came out just in time for the guests to arrive. Unfortunately, the sun was in and out all day and no one actually went into the pool that day.
Instead, we hung out on the patio chairs while the food cooked and then took a short break inside to eat, and then all came back outside for more sun. We had a fun time chatting, laughing, and making fun of each other, as usual.
Mai also got to meet Koa and they spent some quality time together. I knew they would hit it off and Koa was like butter in Mai’s hands. Here are the rest of the photos.
That was the theme for Jimmy’s 35th Birthday Party last Saturday and it was at their house.
When I first arrived, I asked Jimmy if the Lakers were going to win and he said “Of course. They always win on my birthday!” Well, it was a close one but they did win after all. Thank goodness because I was afraid the party would turn sour if they didn’t.
Eleen ordered a full spread of J’s Filipino favorites and we stuffed ourselves silly.
Olivia and Kevin also brought a chocolate cake that said “We Love J and the Lakers”.
We all had a good time and I think the birthday boy did too…especially because he didn’t have to do any push-ups this year. Here are the rest of the photos.
