Month: April 2018

Hey everyone….happy Friday!! I hope you all enjoy your weekend! I have been a little out of it lately, we found out one of my dogs has lymphoma. Ugh! Here we go again, Josie died from it at the exact same age. Seriously sucks!!! 🙁 Everyone is telling me how he has had a great 12 years of life and I know that, but that doesn’t make it any easier. They just don’t live long enough. It does help talking about it though, I am not one to bottle up my feelings. So thanks for listening to me talk about this. It’s really hard…my pets are my babies. Losing one of them is like losing family to me. With this type of thing we just go day by day. I will make sure to keep him happy and in no pain. When he is in pain, I am in pain. I won’t have that. Send prayers and positive thoughts our way please! 🙂 🙂

I don’t want to be a total downer today so let’s move on to other things. I will say that I have been getting out more and enjoying what CA has to offer. We found some new trails right by our house which is awesome. The views are amazing!! You can see downtown LA on one side and I think Santa Monica on the other, not really sure what city it is ..but it’s the beautiful ocean. I will have to take my binoculars next hike. It’s so different hiking here than in AZ. It is gorgeous, but I think the AZ desert is gorgeous too. I know some people can’t see beauty in the desert…but it is alive and amazing as well. I know the cactus look mean and usually are..lol, but just something about the desert that I love. Maybe it’s because I am a Scorpio. hehe! The green rolling hills and mountains here in CA are so pretty too. I guess I just love nature in general. Beauty is all around us…you just have to stop and appreciate it. Life is too damn short!

I have been going to the gym regularly again…woohoo! It really does make me feel better overall and gives me more energy. Hey I will be 50 in November…honestly it seems unreal. Where does the time go???

I have been working a lot and playing a bit too. Met friends for a nice dinner one night and also met up with a group of friends for drinks at a super cool restaurant in Calabasas. It’s so nice sitting outside and listening to live music, my kind of music. 🙂 Fun times!

No trips or vacations planned anytime soon, I need to take care of my baby boy. He comes first!! 🙂

I am off now …I have a busy Friday. Have a fabulous weekend everyone!

Kisses,

Good morning!! I am FINALLY getting around to my blog. I am soooooo bad. 🙁 I guess things change and priorities shift in our lives. Nothing really ever stays the same. I am keeping busy so that is only excuse I have for not posting more. I do try to keep up on twitter as much as I can. That is the only social media I have, btw. I do not have Facebook, Instagram, SnapChat…blah blah blah. So many …it’s crazy. I don’t know how people have time to post to them all. Must be nice to have all that extra time. Haha! 😉

I can’t believe it’s April!! It has been raining a lot in Ca, which I like. It’s a good change from Arizona. I have my office window open right now loving the cool breeze. I can’t say California has grown on me yet, but I am working on it. I did tour a winery recently and that was fun!! Lots of wine tasting and enjoying the beautiful scenery. 🙂 🙂 🙂

I have started getting into my “normal” routine lately and that feels nice. Mediation, exercise and eating healthier has made me feel awesome! Things haven’t been quite normal since the move until recently. Yay! 😉 Moving is just hard… especially to another state.

I hope you are all getting your taxes done, the clock is ticking. I have mine done, but I always wait until the last minute to pay them. I like to hold on to my money for as long as I can. hehe! 😉

I actually ventured out yesterday and went shopping. Omg, I just don’t like to shop anymore. I NEVER thought I would say that. See things do change. Amazon is my friend …and a few stores online. It’s just so much easier!! No traffic or crowds!! Goodies delivered to my door, it’s like Christmas every day. hehe! Well not every day, but a lot!

Everything is starting to bloom, I love this time of the year. In Arizona I had allergies that would be kicking in by now, luckily nothing yet. I am hoping I won’t have allergies here. 🙂 Summer will be here soon…I am ready to have some pool parties and cook outs.

Of course we will be moving again once our lease is up. Oh joy! It won’t be anything like the last move obviously, but still moving just sucks. I will say that not owning a house is a nice stress release. We have been homeowners since 1999 and don’t get me wrong, having a home is nice, but I love the fact that Buzz and I can move anywhere anytime we want without the burden of selling a house. I have no clue when or where we will settle down next. We talk about a lot of different places, it just depends on business. Of course I am still waiting for my cabin in the mountains. Buzz is waiting for his beach house in Mexico. Ha, seems like we are on different pages. LOL 😉

I am off now…lots to do! I hope you all have a great day! I will write more soon…here are some pics that I wanted to share.

Kisses,
