It’s kind of hilarious the things I find myself doing when my nephew is here. Jumping up and down a lot, talking into fans like Darth Vader, dancing shamelessly in public, chasing cat toys, making a LOT of silly faces, singing Spongebob at the top of my lungs… I’ll basically do anything for a laugh.…
Adele
Promptly upon our return home from Palm Springs, I took a nap. And then went to a concert at the Hollywood Bowl! There were a few ladies playing, but the only one I was really dying to see was the headliner, ADELE. And she did not disappoint. Chaka Khan was cool as well, but Adele…
Tour de Los Angeles (This is a Long One...)
WOW! What a week. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some family visiting from Finland and I was one heck of a tour guide. In fact, I was so good, that I wore myself out!! Haha. I slept really well last night, but it may take me a few days to get…
Start of Summer
Besides the gloomy weather, Summer has so far been everything it’s supposed to be – a little bit of busy, mixed with days of boredom, mixed with some fun times. June started off slow enough. During the week, I have been fairly bored. To keep things moving, I’ve mostly worked on editing videos and photos…
Family Fun
As I mentioned in my previous post, we got to visit Utah last weekend for my brother’s graduation. After a quick 1-nighter in Vegas, we spent a few really lovely days at my Mom’s place. Southern Utah is an area that Hubs and I have really grown to love. We get really excited to go…
Shoppers Anonymous
So as many of you know, I have had a shopping addiction for many, many years. I’m not talking about someone who shops once a month. Or once a week. I prefer to shop every single day of my life. But since I stopped working, I’ve had to kick that bad habit and start watching…
My Two Moms!
Just wanted to say a quick thank you to my awesome Mom and my sweet Mother-in-Law. They are different in so many ways and have each faced their own unique set of challenges in life. However, in the important area of motherhood, they are the same. They are both caring, loving examples who are active…
Stir-Fry
Today, for some reason I got the urge to make stir-fry. Oh, I remember why – I saw a bag of edamame in the freezer and thought “YUM! Let’s do Asian food tonight, so I can eat that.” You all know sometimes even just coming up with an idea for dinner can be a chore,…
Day Trip!
We took a great little last-minute day trip yesterday with all the friends for Hubby’s birthday. We gathered together early in the day and made our way up north. It was a fairly rough start – we left late, we had a sick passenger, we got a speeding ticket. I wasn’t sure how this going…
Baby-Making Woes
Well yesterday was pretty shitty – to put it lightly. About a week and 1/2 ago, hubs and I found out we were pregnant! I took 2 at-home pregnancy tests 5 days apart and they were both positive. We were of course super excited, nervous, anxious…excited. All the feelings that go along with a possible…
