I fixed my sprinklers myself today. I am quite proud of me!! It involved wires being put back together and there was no shocking or fire!! Yippie! I also got two raspberry bushes for free from the nursery today! The one I bought from them died. Well it died because diesel thought t was a chew toy but they are very nice at my nursery and gave me two new ones for free. One is huge and even has berries on it already. I can't wait for them to ripen. At this rate I will be able to just eat from my yard!! |

| I'm a cheap date |

I had the worlds cheapest date last night. We went for a long walk in the city and stopped for dinner. The restaurant was having an anniversary night and had their prices to what they were in 1955 or something. So we ordered a pizza, 2 glasses of wine and cheesecake for dessert and our bill was $2.15. I couldn't finish my cheesecake and my date took the rest to take back. Halfway back I got cheesecake shoved in my face. I love the people I choose to spend my time with. Tonight I have company coming for dinner and wednesday night I have company staying the night before hitting reno. Maybe thursday I'll get to work in the garden!! |

I spent last night in a bar. I don't go to bars, I don't drink. But for some reason last night I found myself in the or one of the oldest bars in SF with an amazing person. I talked I cried. I was held and told its not me. I was kissed and told I was loved. I needed that. Some times I feel like I have spent so much time trying to change myself into a better person that I don't know who I am now. This last year has been one of the most stressful years of my life that I've just gotten confused along the way and made some bad decisions. Even as I type this I get called from work. One thing I have done though is try to really enjoy the good times I've had while they're happening. Of course the only problem with that is when they end you feel even more depressed. One day I will figure things out.
In other news does anyone on f list like plums or figs? Its seems most of the green things in my yard produce some sort of food. I have what I think is a large plum tree that is loaded right now. If they all ripen I will plums coming out my ears. I don't like them as they are a fruit!! And I have a fig tree. There are figs growing on it even now. I really hate those. I just can't seem to be able to take out a food bearing plant though. Its seems wrong somehow. Why can't one of them be a fuji apple tree??? With a peanut butter bush next to it? |

I had such high hopes for UC Davis. I had my biopsy yesterday and she dropped the sample and so she had to do it again. SHe was like oh my god I'm so sorry thats never happened before. Then she's like this is going to really cramp up later. Last night I has a dream about the world ending and I woke up to a bloody mess in my bed. AWESOME!!!!!
Oh well at least I didn't have to go alone and I got the worlds best fries after. I also learned Dr. Phil can be entertaining when you're in a waiting room with the right person.
At some point I'm going to post pics from Peru. |

Dealing with south american airlines, hotels, websites sucks ass!!!!! I swear I have learned spanish, well at least with payment info and hotel descriptions. I guess the 7 years of taking it is coming back a little. The worst is the websites will shut down unexpectedly. Your in the middle of a reservation and proof its gone. But I have a room in a tree house in the Andes with hot springs very close by. It will all work out, I just keep telling myself that. |

So today Diesel had good citizen dog class. He passed and I will say he was the most popular dog there and the largest and the only one who did all the things without treats. So at the end of class his trainer gave all the dogs a toy. She tried to give diesel a squeaky bone toy. When it squeaked he got scarred and everyone had a good laugh that the giant mastiff was afraid of squeaky toys. He had to make himself feel better by chasing the cat around when we got home. |

Its supposed to snow here tonight. I really wanted to go out but I'm afraid the weather might keep me in. And I do want to see the snow. It hasn't snowed here since I was pretty little. |

Ugh I made the mistake of taking my dinner date monday night to Joe's crab shack. The best part was the awesome view over the river and the food was good too. It got bad when the lights dimmed and all the waiters started singing and dancing. I was seriously scared. Next time I'm cooking. I will figure out how to make crab cakes so I don't have to experience that again. After dinner I got a full body massage which was so awesome!!!! I needed it.
The trip to Peru is on! I'm more excited about the hotel I'm staying in in Lima than anything else but planning my trip is how I get through the holiday season. Today I had a visit from one of the VP's. She told my boss I had an incredible mind for business. I think thats good. And boy do I enjoy making my own schedule.
Tomorrow the dog trainer comes. I hoping that means my dog will stop trying to chew a hole through the door. This morning he dug up one of his rawhides and gave it to me as a present. I guess thats dog love. And at least he has figured out its freezing outside and is sleeping inside now. Well someone carried him in the other night but whatever works. I just hope this trainer is worth the money.
Then tomorrow night is cupcake and sewing night. This week we're making gingersnap cupcakes. Yesterday I baked bread. I do believe I will be baking my own bread from now on. Next I'm going to try making my own bagels. Umm fresh baked bread stuff! |

I'm going crazy bored in my hotel room. I got off work at 5 last night and don't have to go in until 2 today. I should have just gone home last night. I have that same thing friday night too. So either I'm going to go home and be with the animals or I'll end up at dna. Yippie. Its better than sitting here being bored to death watching maury povich.
And I will spend hours on the phone trying to figure out my insurance nightmare. I just keep telling myself its a job and I should be happy but I don't do well with this may changes in life. |

Since the economy sucks there is some cool super cheap stuff on ebay and I have a job now. This is not a good combo especially since I will be stuck in a hotel room in san jose for a week. But I like to look at my vintage things as an investment. Some day they will be worth millions. And since I have a huge house to myself I have room to store everything. See how I talk myself into a new sewing machine. |

Life is going good with a new job and I really like my new boss. I will be living in the hilton in san jose next week. I quit my job yesterday so I could have some days to myself. Of course I realized that tickets to peru are only $150 right now. But a dear friend pointed out that I would need more than two days in peru. Yesterday I had a girls day of sewing, making cupcakes, drinking champagne and silliness. Oh what fun was had. And tonight I cooked a boy a super yummy steak dinner, had some tasty wine and went out to a scary movie. You may not believe this but I make a damn good steak. Tomorrow is pattern drafting all day which to me is a day of heaven. Then a show in the city. I still might do a weekend trip to vegas or tahoe if I can convince a certain person he should be irresponsible and go. But yes life is good right now, I hope it continues. |

My poor dog has a huge cone on his head. I really didn't want to do it but he kept licking his stitches. He's not a happy dog.
Last night was awesome dinner at Delancy street. The food my not be the best in the world but I love their mission. It was so nice to just have good company with no drama. Intelligent conversation, and relaxing under the covers. Why can't all my evenings out be like this? Of course today at work sucked due to serious lack of sleep. |

| apparently I'm a housewife |
[Jul. 7th, 2008|12:56 pm] |

This morning I got up at 6am and baked rolls. I then ate them with homemade raspberry jam. Both were my grandmothers recipes and oh my god so good!!!!! There's nothing like hot bread with butter oozzing out the middle and fresh jam. Then I cleaned and organized all my house paperwork and then I sewed. Lunch was tofu with rice and peanut sauce. Apparently I have taken a day off from my normal life and have become a housewife. All well baking, cleaning and sewing are my favorite things. It makes me happy. This afternoon will consist of running errands at the bank and grocery store. Maybe a little head butting with the rabbits. And then a run or maybe out for dancing. It depends on how hot it is! |

I have learned something this week. Do not deposit a large sum of money that you can not account for (like fund raising money)into your account right before you buy a house. I have a very creative loan officer. And a helpful mother. But my home inspection went like this. "I have never seen a home this old look this good." |
