And so summer starts

I am happy to say that I finally feel like I am on top of my things, everything, well except the whole no job thing. I have been on an upward movement lately. I have come to the conclusion that I have cycles of being “up” and also “down” swings. I love the ups, but the downs are hard. May might have been a “down” time for me, it was so hard to get it together, the only thing that helped me was the constant subbing and being in the classroom, which always puts me in a great mood. Now that May is over I plan on taking June on! My spring was absolutely fabulous! We had such a good time, maybe this is why I couldn’t find time for my crafts and my art? Here are some pictures of our adventures.

 Yummy goodness at the Strawberry Festival

 I cant complain about our crazy spring, it was great!  Summer will be even better, I can feel it, camping, picnics, drive in movies, beach bunny bingo and much more! Woot woot.

Will be back later today to post on my crafts and my hope to participate in Park Your Art, as well as my attempts at an Etsy shop.

Thanks

As of late...

So once again I have failed to keep up with my post, but before you all go an dump me, let me explain.

First the month started off extremely well. Mr. J and I went to see the King Tut exhibit at the De Young in San Francisco. It was amazing! We had a really great time and we ate at this really wonderful little hole in the wall and we will definitely visit again.

After that, family visited, and that was a blast. Mr. J and I went to Napa for the first time and we are completely hooked! I love the vineyards and the loveliness of the whole wine drinking scene. Napa is a little pricy for our blood, but we will treat our self once in a while.

After the Napa weekend whirlwind Mr. J and I went on a little adventure and found that green living isn’t as hard as we thought. We got a nice surprise when we were able to become a little greener with this mower.  Its an electric mower, and we were able to recycle our old ugly gas mower when we pick this one up.

The weekend that followed was also very exciting and I could not get a second on the computer.

More recently our adventures consisted of a day out in the sun at UCD for the annual picnic day. Mr. J and I celebrate every year because picnic day marks the day of our first “official” day as a couple 9 years ago. On top of picnic day, we have made it our mission to attend as many wonderful concerts as our wallets allow us to. One recent concert we attended was “Atoms for Peace” IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!! If you don’t believe me, google review and find out for yourself.

 As of late our house has been taking most of our energy and effort, we took it upon ourselves to work on our little casita and little by little make it our dream home.

Till next time.
Have a wonderful Sunday!

Weekend Adventures

I have been away for a little bit. Its been crazy for me because I find myself frantically applying for jobs and then being completely depressed when nothing flourishes from my attempts. But just because my life is being consumed with looking for a job doesn’t mean me and Mr. J haven’t had time to escape. This weekend was a fabulous one. Mr. J and I had the opportunity to meet up with friends in the little town of Davis, which is about 15 min away from Sacras. It was a gloomy day but being with friends made it seem as though the sun was shinning bright. Previous to the little get away, we celebrated “Dia de los Reyes Magos” with friends. I was the lucky one who found the baby in the bread and now I have to through a party, which I don’t mind because I love hosting.

Anywho, here are some photos of our little adventures. So far 2010 has been good to us.

 

 

 

UCD library fun. I love the UCD library, its so beautiful.  Mr. J and I just relaxed and reminisced about our days as undergrads.

Here are some pics of some pretty things I found at the Thrift store, unfortunately it was crazy packed and we left so I didnt get ot purchase anything.

On Sunday night Mr. J and I decided to conquer one of our puzzles, and failed miserably LOL.  We are currently working on another puzzle and are doing very well. 

-Pita...Ill keep you posted on Job stuff :)
