Life


These past two weeks I’ve been feeling lonely and blue. The weather has picked up and the city is shedding old man winter. On my way to work tulips greet me so I take my time and enjoy the blue skies with a cup of java in tote. I had to remind myself that when I first moved from the Bay Area to the Central Valley I remember feeling alone and out of place. It was like everyone was friends from grade school and here I was trying to befriend just about anyone. It took me a while to make the valley my home, and with time not on my side maybe I’m feeling a rush here in my new city. Another thing is its really hard meeting people during winter because we’re all in hibernation. Too cold to be outside and meet anyone! But spring has arrived! I’ve been busy with work and our company. I’m excited about taking my girls around town, hopefully Serena and I can show Sarah how this truly is a wonderful city. The month of May is exciting for me; I’ll be seeing Kevin, getting a new tattoo and for Memorial weekend I get to do some business traveling to a resort!
Ciao!

Gift Cards

Thanks to my dear friend Erin I went to the bookstore on Sunday and purchased 3 books! Oh how I love being in a bookstore...any bookstore. I love the smell, all the small places you can cop-a-squat and read the possible books you will take home. I bought myself a coffee and enjoyed hours wondering, picking and choosing all that interest me. I walked out with two poetry and one travel book! I love gift cards!!

Ciao

Films


My life has taken another turn. I'm in search of a new job and busy
with our new company as well. Only the Lord knows how this will end and my faith is strong. So when I'm not busy looking for work or running around getting ready for the Chicago Bridal Expo I have enjoyed renting movies from Netflix. Here are a few honorable mentions:

Bright Star
Moliere
Ghost Town
Bread and Tulips
Definitely, Maybe
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

These movies I have found funny, moving, tear gripping and down right lovely. I watched Bright Star last night and haven't cried that way in a very long time. This is a must buy for my home collection.

Ciao!
