This weekend we’ve had some intense winds, gusts that shake the whole house. There are fires burning in several places around LA including off of I-5. Our plans to have dinner with friends in Topanga Canyon on Sunday were canceled due to the fire in Malibu which closed down Topanga Canyon. Our friends evacuated voluntarily, [...]

Workrazy

Paul and I have both been burning the candle at both ends lately. Were both so overworked and sick of the non-stop work insanity. I haven’t had time for friends or family, it seems like there’s not enough time to even get the necessities taken care of. The house hasn’t been cleaned well [...]
I Recommend…

So why am I adding an advertisement on my blog you ask? Well for those of us who purchase songs online this is good news. iTunes can be a pain in that the songs you buy are only compatible with certian devices and if you want to burn them to CD you have to have [...]
Work, work, work

Friday I launched a redesign of an ecommerce site. I’ve got so many things to do right now and not enough time to finish them all. I’m having a hard time keeping up with everything. On Saturday I went with Paul down to Simi Valley to look at a classic Mustang. He’s thinking about getting [...]
Eve & Line Beach Wedding

Yesterday our good friends Eve and Line (pronounced Leena) got married at Butterfly Beach in Montecito. It was very small and sweet just like our beach wedding almost a year ago. I’ve known Eve for many years and this I know is a good thing for both he and Line. They compliment each other [...]
Games to play while stuck in LA traffic

Here’s one Paul and I enjoy. The goal is to try to spot enough junk on the freeway to furnish a house and clothe a person. This is really easy if you’re on the 405 especially.
Last time we were on our way to the airport we found enough to make a bar-b-q including the grill, [...]
Stupid Columbus Day
Posted in Blog on October 9, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
There’s nothing like breaking up a monotonous Monday with a useless 80 mile trip down to the bank on Columbus Day. I desperately need to deposit a check which was returned by them because it shows my maiden name on it. Really pissed me off that they were closed, but of course it was my [...]
Weekend at home

On Sat I picked up Margo at school after her SAT testing and I made pancakes for breakfast. I panted the ramp on Paul’s car hauler, which he’s selling. He wants to get a goosneck trailer eventually because they are much easier to manuver. He’s selling the stock car too. I worked around the house [...]
It was a rough week. Lots of work to get done and I was not feeling so good. I’m really glad it’s Friday now.
Yesterday Bettina and I went to ceramics. I finished painting my bowel and cleaned and carved a foot on the other bowel I made on the wheel a couple of weeks [...]
RV Camping and Margaritas

On Sunday I camped with Michelle in her RV. The camp site has a small petting zoo with horses, goats, pigs and chickens. We fed them carrots that they give out at the office. Even the chickens liked them.
We made a campfire and cooked buffalo wings and garlic bread and drank blended Margaritas. ( This [...]
