Onions, Garlic and Mushrooms

Hi Stacey! Just wanted to say hello and thanks for your onions, garlic and mushrooms tip. Right now I am eating chicken cooked in that, with acorn squash and eggplant on the side. It’s pretty yummy. Anyhow, hope you are doing well! I have been climbing more ever since climbing with you and Alyssa, though all of it has been indoors!

Climbing the Mountain of Youth

Hi Stacey! I had a lot of fun at the Climbing the Mountain of Youth party. I posted a write-up and some photos here. Happy b-day!

Thanks again for picking me up at the CalTrain station on that day to go to Cragmont. I will be going back to Colorado on Tuesday but maybe I can stop by Belmont Sunday. Still trying to figure out my schedule for the weekend. In the meantime, take care and talk to you soon! -Felix

Condolences to Eva

Hi Stacey. I’m really sorry about Eva’s nieces and sister-in-law. That is really sad. My condolences to her. Life is precious; I hope she is well.

Congrats on the coaching job. Sounds like fun. When I was young I played little league soccer for a little bit. I was really bad 🙂

WOW! I just heard from Stacey. She just won the gold in badmitton at the Transplant Games. Now she is even thinking of going to the World Championships next year. Great going Stacey! We are all very proud of you! -Felix, from scorching Stockton

Hi Stacey! I thought of you today. A nurse just came over to take some fluid specimens for insurance purposes, and, like you, when she drew blood I decided to watch the entire thing. Normally I look away and cringe but then I remembered you and how you watch the nurses stick you with needles… pretty neat 🙂 Anyhow, another thing I thought of you the other week. I finally exceeded the distance of “Stacey’s Run From Lam,” this time doing 53 miles, in Wyoming. I would never have had the confidence to do that distance if the 40-miler with you had not gone so well. Attached is a photo (taken early in the race when I wasn’t walking yet 🙂 ) I will be in CA later this month. Will give you a call! love, -Felix, from Fort Collins

Hi Stacey! I am glad you are doing well. Good luck at the transplant games! I should be in CA in late June and then late July, and will definitely try to give you a call. In the meantime, take care! love, -Felix, from Fort Collins

Hi Stacey! Congrats on your recent PFT test. That is very encouraging. Also, that you have been winning games in badminton makes me smile. I am pretty astounded you can do 5.11’s again. I am still stuck at 5.10 out here. I’d like to think that maybe things are rated harder at the gym out here than CityBeach, but can’t really tell for sure. Pretty demoralizing! Anyhow, keep up the good work and talk to you soon! love, -felix, from Fort Collins

Hi Stacey. Man, sorry about being sick… it didn’t sound like you had a pleasant day at all yesterday. 🙁 I’m glad your lung function went back up though. LOL, I suffered from the same type of “chronic rejection” as Miki did in high school, too! I will hold hope that your body doesn’t do that to your lungs. Good luck with badminton! -felix, who still can’t climb a 5.11 out here in the CO gyms for some reason, from Fort Collins

Hi Stacey. I am really sorry about the recent bumps in the road. My thoughts are with you and hope you stay strong. Keep those spirits up and keep us updated. love, -felix, from Fort Collins
