Hiking on a Saturday

Saturday, January 10th, 2009

Well I guess I’m back after an unintentional “blog-cation” I’ve taken this week, as work has gotten fairly busy. Let’s just say it’s consisted of my having stay later than I’ve ever had to stay at work ever. Even longer than busy season. But it’s all good because after the hard work comes some much needed relaxation.

This weekend Cale and I took the dogs for a walk in an attempt to exhaust them so that they would stop running all over the house chasing each other. It most definitely worked, since they have both been sleeping ever since we got back.

I hope your weekends are all going well! I hope you enjoyed taking a peek at the area in which we live. Nothing too fancy, but you can’t get any better than being surrounded by nature.

EDIT: And in case anyone has been losing sleep waiting to see my bangs obviously those have still not happened. And no, not because Cale threatened me with a divorce. We couldn’t fit a hair appointment into our trip to Bakersfield and trying out a new stylist where we live to make such a big change to my hair just freaks me out. So we are waiting until the next trip to Bakersfield in about a month. Someday I am going to try the bangs, I swear!

Halloween

Saturday, November 1st, 2008

First and foremost, I’m home!  After a long day of traveling yesterday, I got picked up at the San Jose airport by not only my husband, but my two puppies too!  I got to brag on the way home about seeing Drew Remenda (SJ Sharks hockey fans will know this guy) at the baggage claim carousel.  Maisie bombarded my face with wet puppy kisses.  Really there was no stopping the onslaught of her tongue.

But I came home, read about people passing out Halloween candy, and came to realize that my dogs were a little sad about not getting to dress up for Halloween. Other blogger dogs got to dress up. And mine were just jealous.

So I gave them their costumes. And they assumed the roles. Maisie is a ghost and Brodie is a black cat. Perfect right?

Neo felt left out so I just told him he was a candy corn.

And then I ate him. The end.

All is Well

As a follow-up to yesterday’s post, last night went much better than the previous night. I developed a system for my purse that should be cat-proof, so long as I remember to use it. The puppies are glad to be back at home. So that’s all. Lame post, so I’ll throw in some pictures:

The new purse (that I swear is purple. the lighting in our house was not having any of that though), new scarf from shopping this weekend, and the new system. That is a wreath hanging hook. Perfect size for a purse.

Brodie. Cute. The end.

And Maisie. She’s pretty cute too.

Okay and Neo is cute too. How could I stay mad at that ball o’fluff?

Coming up soon: Pictures from the beach this weekend, a video blog especial, and maybe someday I’ll write that post about our honeymoon in France that I conveniently forgot about.

Boarded Up

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

Today is my little sister’s birthday! She is no longer a teenager. This weekend we are celebrating by going to the coast: visiting Hearst Castle for the first time, staying in Morro Bay, shopping in San Luis Obispo, and hanging out with family. I am very excited to get away for the weekend and to visit the beach. Besides our anniversary trip to Carmel, we have not visited the coast at all this summer. Just shameful!

And while we are gone enjoying our weekend away, our dogs are going to experience something new. We are boarding them this weekend at a nearby kennel. Hopefully they won’t miss us too much, and I’m looking forward to feeling peace of mind that they are being well taken care of.

I don’t think Brodie will be any more the wiser. He’s pretty carefree.

Maisie might be a little disgruntled when we get home.. She holds grudges. Typical woman

I hope you all have exciting weekends planned!
