life happens

I was emotionally and physically I feel very exhausted:(. I had a long day..night. I didn’t know how to end it other than watching a depp movie. Edward Scissor Hands was my choice.*sigh.

woke up at 9am. I had a memorial service to attend 10 minutes from me. In my hometown of Echo Park at the Temple. It started at 10am, i asked my sister and her friend stefanie to accompany me, for i didnt want to attend myself. This person was like a grandma to me, she was one of my sweetest patients and her family and daughter especially is just so sweet and loving towards her mother, she cared so much for her in her last days, it made me think of my own mother and how much i loved her. It was a week til Valentines day, a day that i say just helps us to remember to love one another no matter what and this was a hard and emotional week for the Cruz Family. The grandchildren played songs on guitar, including "You are my sunshine" which brought me to tears, i don tknow why. He said she would always sing this to him. I miss my grandmother dearly and really want to see her as soon as possible. It was a beautiful service and a day of celebration for she is no longer suffering and with the Lord! praise god.

Took the girls to Portos with me today to have some lunch. I told them at this restaurant, you will see a bunch of ladies with their designer purses, flashy sunglasses and uggs on. And it was true! Total evidence everywhere. We saw some crazy fashion going on.
Portos is an international bakery and restaurant. It is my favorite bakery to pick up some pastries and have it on an average of 2-4 times a month. I picked up some fruit tarts for the family, a red velvet cheesecake I later surprised Stef with for her birthday and a cheesecake for myself. The girls loved their sandwhiches and I enjoyed a lechon sandwhich which I devoured. Going around lunch is quite a dare and challenge to find a table to eat on. But we were lucky enough to get a table soon enough to wait with. The people who work there are very nice and helpful. They must be paid well.
