Miss Him....

My Dad, The Preacher Man...I miss him!! If anyone has some cool old photos of my family from back in the day, will you forward them to me?

1:00 am...

So I was up late last night doing some laundry...I had so many loads because I don't have a washer/dryer at my house yet, so I finally decided to go to my mom's empty house and take advantage of hers. Ok, so after my 5 loads of laundry I got home around midnight. I decided to watch "American Idol" I had tivo'd before bed so I could chat about it at work the next day. So by the time that was over it was about 1am. My hair was bothering, kept getting in my face all night...so annoying! So what do you do when you're tired and annoyed? - you get rid of the problem the easiest way you know how! So I now have bangs again! That's right, I chopped off the front of my hair to get it out of the way. I really should get to bed earlier from now on! :)
Here's my new do....

Reuniting With Old Friends

Last night I was able to reunite with some dear old friends, the Kochs! I have missed this family so much and am so glad I got to see them again! I have known the Koch family pretty much my entire life! When I think of the "good old days" they are there, forefront! I love them and miss them...and hope we can continue to stay in contact! Michelle and I found each other on myspace a while back - sad that it took so long to get together! But I'm glad we finally met up! Her brother David had a show that night, so I headed over there in time to see his band play. I saw Dave first, and then Michelle...and then her dad showed up! Can I just tell you how nice it is to see old friends again! It was great to see them all and catch up! I love you guys!!!

Cutest Nephews EVER!!

Birds of a Feather Stick Together...

Ok, so I was checking out some blogs yesterday and I came across an online store called

Etsy

where you can buy and sell handmade items. LOVE THIS SITE! :) I bought a great necklace last night and am so excited for it to arrive! For some reason I'm into vintage birds right now...totally dig'em! If you come across anything that you think I would like, reasonably priced of course, let me know!!

Missing My Home

Photos taken by "Me" when I lived at the beach....

I'm feeling sad right now...I'm missing my home at the beach! This weekend was so HOT out in the '909' and I don't have central ac! Not good during 100 degree weather! My wall unit didn't help much! I just miss being able to come home from work and ride my bike to the beach (that was 1 mile away) and cruise along the boardwalk enjoying the beauty! I miss my friends who are still out there, that I don't get to see very often anymore! I think I'm most lonely because my family has moved away! My sister and her family moved back to Mississippi last weekend, my mom moved to Washington the weekend before (after she got married), and my brother and his family live in Iowa. I, of course, stayed in California! I love it here...but I miss everyone so much! If anyone wants to come visit me...I have a guest room waiting! :) Love you all....

Speech & Language Development - 5k

On 4/13/08 my girlfriends and I decided to do a 5k at Knott's Berry Farm. The last one we did (in HB) had crazy hurricane weather...and then this one was so hot! Anyway, it was fun, and for a good cause - for the Speech and Language Development Center:)
