The devil is in the details!

The weekend - it was a learning experience. My "R" and I are good, very good. We have "hiccups" in our relationships every now and then, but it keeps us both real. I learn from what any heartache I go through and I am sure he does as well. Forgiveness is the pillar to any relationship, I have read somewhere. And as long as there is the true and devoted love we have to each other (not to anyone else -but to each other) I am sure it would take a lot to dissolve this relationship of ours! He and I, rock! So there, forgiveness, sacrifice and understanding can really go a long way.

Then today is Thursday - though it reminds us all of the Sept 11, 2001, I conquered a big task today. I drove from the burbs to the City of Buenos Aires (Belgrano); all by myself (and 2 CDs on the player!). I made it. Unbelievable. And yeah, it was raining, did I mention that? It was.

All I can say is - it was great. I never liked driving much but today was an adrenalin-pumping trek. I loved it! I called "R" after I had gotten to my place and the car is safely parked at the parking garage around the block. Boy, was it great. The traffic is as usual but I had a great time with it. It kept me alert and driving in safe speed made the travel good.

Now the sun is out. After a very grayish morning it is sunny at 2pm. Today is a memorable day for me, I was able to go to the city and drive through the labyrinth of traffic and fast and slow cars and get here to my place - what a day. I loved the challenge and a little fear helped me immensely. It was a test and I hope to repeat the experience tomorrow.

"R" would be so proud. And I kept hearing the voice of "R's" Dad, saying years ago that I can do it and that I have no fear. I do but it served me very well. I was driving as I know I would. Oh yeah and it helped that in the Philippines people sort of drive like the same way here :-)

Well, that is my update for now. Diet is going well, missed 2 days of yoga but will make up for one tonight and tomorrow I do the stairmaster.

Veggies are great and I eat just a tad bit of meat now; but I still love the cheeses and fruits.

See you another day, k?

Ciao.
