My 6th session of WBR came and went. Afterwards, I joined my best friend (BFF), Linh for a nice lunch at Santana Row. I had delicious, wholesome healthy salad and wheat pasta over salmon, while she selected the Fruta del Mar. Then we strolled through one of my favorite furniture shops, Z Gallery, frolicking over beautiful, expensive luxuries, slurping our pearl, milk teas in hand. We talked about our kids, caught up on our lives and laughed. It was so delightful; time, almost stood..What an enchanting time. It's been awhile where I was able to steal some quality time away from the kids hectic activities, work and treatment and to nourish myself on soulful times, hanging out with my dear friend.
Soon enough, much too soon, our little lunch date was over and we were about to part our ways to our responsibilities and errands. I was heading towards my planned trip to the local wig bank to pick out and get fitted for a wig. But, much to my surprise, Linh promptly was able to change her plans around and was able to kindly join me on my wig picking stop. To continue our conversations, she even graciously offered to drive. What a true BFF! I'm so thankful for her and her friendship.
As we got there, she helped me select and put on a handful of wigs, hats, scarfs and head coverings. Short ones, long ones, blond ones, curly ones, red hair, brown hair and even red ones, I tried them all to just pick just the right one. We laughed, had some fun and finally, we narrowed it down to the perfect, "natural" looking ones. With 2 selected, she snapped 2 photos with my iphone and we agreed on a final winner. Thank goodness for best friends. Thank goodness for Linh. As we left the place, Linh, with a half hour of free time still, since we didn't find the perfect hat and I had expressed my wish of getting the perfect, "lounge" chair to curl in, we drove to the nearest budget friendly shops, like World Market and Marshall's to window shop. Before we know it, our 15 minutes of shopping came to end. We said our good byes and then parted ways towards home.
Once home, my day immediately turned hectically busy. Instantly, as I stepped inside, I rushed to give the kids a bath, swiftly packed all of their snacks, put all three in the car so that I can take Ellen to her baseball practice and then take them onto Kumon. All the while waiting, with Emma not attending Kumon, we head to the store to pick Easter eggs and snacks for the kids class and get dinner ready. Whew. By night fall, exhausted, we all crashed for much needed sleep. Lots of Love.
