Jason Trip Day

Sunday was the day they held for me at City Beach Fremont. The day was going to be a City Beach family day, but was turned into a day where they charged entry to raise money for me. Aaron B. spent some serious time setting this thing up and this was his brain-child and he is pretty dang cool.

And the total number of people at the Jason Trip day: 175! I wasn't sure if we would have many people, and I especially didn't expect THAT MANY to show. It was overwhelming. There were kids and parents playing volleyball and basketball, screaming in terror on the ropes course, bouncing on the huge inflatables, playing hyperbowl, and eating. There was a pretty long line to get on the zip line and the bungie rope, but I think the biggest line was the line that formed to talk to me! And I talked to people the whole time, and I know I didn't even get to everyone. And it couldn't have been any other way. It is truly a great feeling to hear from so many people offering so much support. I wish I would have had a chance to talk to everyone and personally thank them for coming.

There is too much right now to be thankful for, and I am thankful for that. That last sentence makes my brain experience infinity. I have never really needed much, therefore I have never really received all that much help...I am trying to get used to it. It is humbling. If you came to my day or donated something or sent me an email or talked to me or took a peek at my blog (I know you did that!) just to see how I'm doing, then THANK YOU!

I wanted this blog to be my best blog of all of them, since it was after the Jason Trip day and I wanted to do it justice, but my brain is overwhelmed right now and I feel like it is really no "eyebrows" in terms of creativity, coherence and focus. Sunday was really tiring, then today I worked at the hospital, then talked to an aweseome, non-blood-sucking lawyer (another mom of a girl I coach) about finishing the touches on my trust fund and doing 'estate' stuff (you gotta do it even though you won't need it...and no you cannot have my new xbox 360...and no I don't have an 'estate') and then I had the Sacred Heart Prep sports awards night where I had to talk in front of hundreds of people which I proceded to be late to because I missed the exit and went accross the San Mateo bridge by accident (it is 10 miles) then turned around and paid $3 to return (this is the second time in my life to have done that). So, I'm tired but happy and thankful and I am going to bed.
