I'm learning the guitar. One of my oldest dearest friend's husband is teaching me. He's a great teacher. My fingers are beautifully calloused.

I went to Denver last month with my parents and one sister to visit my brother. It was our birthday, October 20th. He was born on my second birthday. My mother was so annoyed. It was a fun trip and I fell in love with a town called Manitou Springs. I plan on going there again this summer.

My oldest sister is to have a baby boy any day now. I'm filled with excitement at the thought. She has really beautiful babies. She's in extreme discomfort right now, what with having to go to physical therapy twice a week for the baby shoving her muscles all out of place, so the sooner the better.
