these people.

I had another wonderful Sunday afternoon with FIS people - my favorite group of people to hang out with.

It was a beautiful day with blue sky, we walked down the stream, took photos, socialized, had dinner at a great Indian restaurent that was recommended by Erik.

These people made my day today.

I don't even remember when it was last time I called in sick for real. Today, I woke up really sick and decided not to go to work.

I spent most of my day in bed and slept like a dead person. It helped. As I got a bit better by the evening, I took photos of Curious George figurines. It's certain that I tend to pay more attention to the smallest things when I have more time in my hands.

I hardly ever celebrate my birthday with a big group of people. However, my birthday this year was a bit different. I went out for dinner and wine with some of my good friends. I guess it's because I have been more sociable than ever for the past year and that I've been blessed with friendship with amazing people. I had a wonderful time with Susan, Betsy, Laura, Ashley, Janice, Jason, Justin, Bill, Corey, Missy, Paul, Eric, and Chris. Yes, Chris came all the way from Canada to celebrate my birthday. ;-)
