Beautiful but sad day in Yucaipa, California.

The past few days the weather has been absolutely amazing. Beautiful, sunny warm days and cool nights. Sorry to all my friends who have the cold, snowy weather.

Babygirl1 left this afternoon. I'm getting a little better, not blubbering for long periods of time. It was hard to see her go though.

This morning we took advantage of the beautiful day and took Sophie for a walk. My Sophie is a rescue dog so she is a little neurotic. She doesn't like to walk long distances with just one person, so this week she has had a lot of exercise.



I am now busy getting ready for Costa Rica. I am essentially packed, just need to fine tune. I work tomorrow and leave Monday night on a red eye. I hope to blog some over there but still not sure what kind of free time I have.

Happy weekend!

Hair Pics

Thanks to my blogger friend "J" who was also my SSS, I learned how to send my phone pics to my e-mail!! I love these young kids who know more than us old folks;)

The FOOT of hair all bundled up. Did you know that they have to cut the hair dry?



And after.



isn't she gorgeous? She is such a beautiful girl inside that her outside shines.

Thanks again "J". You are awesome.




Babygirl1 Visits

Babygirl1 is in town for a whole week! She is on track break for teaching for 4 weeks and I have the pleasure to spend one of those weeks with her!! Time is already moving to quickly and before you know it, I'll be crying like a baby when she goes home.

Babygirl1 has been growing her hair out so she can chop it off and donate it to cancer pts. Yesterday was the day and she chopped off a FOOT of hair to donate. Babygirl2 has done so in the past as well. Makes a Mama feel so proud that she has raised such considerate, beautiful women! I wish I had my camera but I only had my phone to snap pics. I need to get a USB cable so I can download them.

I hope everyone has an awesome Tuesday!!!

Mr. J's Birthday

It was my Mister's birthday yesterday. I'm really into birthday celebration. It's the one day you can claim as your own. The one day to celebrate you!

Celebrate we did. I showered him with gifts and helped him shop for furniture. The evening brought a romantic dinner at Mario's Place and some....Fun;)

Highlights.



We started with these divine Scallops. YUM!






Lamb chops for Him, pasta for me. Both absolutely phenomenol!

I sang him Happy Birthday in my best Marilyn Monroe imitation;)





I still don't know where this relationship is going but I do know this.

I am having an amazing time;)

Spa Day

Working waaayyy too much so I have spending money in Costa Rica. I refuse to complain. I have two jobs while others have none!

Spa day was simply Fabulous with a capital F! I'm a Spa virgin and was totally blow away by all the pampering. A little pricey, so this kind of pamper will be rare!

Highlights:


Room service in the morning. Nothing special but Fab coffee. And great friends:)



The beginning of pampering.



I wish my bathroom looked like this!





Relaxing.







Lunch time.





Inside the spa.







I fell hard for my massage girl. The things she could do with her hands. Wow.
It was such an awesome day and ended far too quickly.

Just another day with great friends.

Historic Day



I am so excited and emotional .
This Country is in such a mess. I feel loads of sympathy for President Obama as he makes the almost impossible, possible. Please have patience dear friends, as it will get worse before it gets better. But, I think he can turn this Country around.

I have Faith Mr. President!

And, on a funny note:
