The Simple Things

It's the simple things in life we forget. Sometimes I forget about how blessed I truly am and complain about stupid things like my leg, not having this/that and hundreds of other dumb things. I find myself being frustrated with a lot of things, a lot of LITTLE things which really shouldn't even bother me in the first place. Through this past week, I have been OVERFLOWED with blessings. Most of you know I just had surgery last week and so many people have visited, brought me food, balloons, cards, called, texted, facebook and just coming to spend time with me. I am extremely thankful for everyone. I've had two days of physical therapy and my therapist is really cool and I'm excited about working hard to get back to playing sports again.

I guess round balloons are in?Thanks Cristina

Thanks Eugene and Grace

As some may know, Caron Butler (one of my favorite players) recently got traded from the Wizards to the Mavericks. He has come a long way since his youth of drugs and crime and plays with a swag that I admire. I've actually had the privilege of meeting him one time at a club in D.C. He was so chill and shook hands to anyone who came up to him. Even though he had a game that day and was probably just looking to relax after flying into D.C. he was still willing to take pictures with us when he easily could've just stayed in the VIP section and ignored us. For those who havn't, please read this, http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/02/21/AR2010022103133.html?sub=AR, it explains the type of person he is and he will be truly missed as a person and player.
