I just returned from Los Angeles. There, I
met others who actively care for struggling learners;
discovered that SoCal has mountains and cool air;
reunited with a cousin and met her black husband and biracial children;
spoke on a walk with her about her pain from her parents' banishment;
received a certificate to practice educational therapy;
had a dog pee on my bed;
was reminded each morning how much God cares for me;
had dinner and wine with California valley girls;
spoke and had dinner with visitors from South Africa;
learned new techniques on how to stimulate cognition for learning growth;
ate lots of chocolate;
became more convinced of the path and mission which I'm on;
sounded like a dinosaur with my lips covering my teeth;
received highly complimentary remarks about my writing!;
swam with my little cousin after our own personal manicure;
was told that I need to practice one of the brain rewiring methods for my own good;
got hugged to death by my teacher at the end of session;
dipped my toes in the Pacific;
watched the start of the Olympics with my cousins;
navigated the morning and evening commute on the freeway;
dreamt in phonics;
enjoyed the support from a loving husband back home;
sat by a wedding dress sales lady on the plane;
forgot where my van was parked in the 106 degree day;
drove up to home feeling happy all-around;
hugged family;
slept to wake with a start!
