So the weekend – last weekend – it was nice.
On Saturday D and I woke up a little later then originally planned, so we didn’t get to head up to Trinidad to look for whales and have breakfast at the Eatery. Instead we slowly got everything ready for our day trip/caravan (with family) to Klamath.
While not everything went as planned (we should’ve taken D’s truck instead of my car, because the roads we found ourselves exploring were verrrry rough) it turned out to be a nice time, going to various scenic look-out points along the 101. Around 3-ish we all decided to go into Crescent City and check out Ocean World. I’d never been there, and every time D and were in the area it was closed. What followed was a very silly and fun family outing.
What I learned about myself through this trip is that I am prone to kissing inadament objects in photos. I never realized this until my Mom said something while I was trying to lay a smooch on the cheek of a large skeleton-pirate statue. I’m really okay with this though. I think it’s perfectly fine and healthy for a married woman such as myself to go around flirting with non-threatening lifeless objects. The exception to this (of course) is just about any animal, and maybe an occasional baby.
At any rate – here’s some silly pictures from our trip.
( Read more... )( Read more... )On a different note, I’ve been feeling so wonderfully happy over the last few days --- a strange sort of blissed out high. All areas of my life seem to be simple and yet wonderful. Simplicity is great. As I become more of a home-body and less of a social-butterfly (D and I still love to go out) some of my most favorite things to do are revolved around the kitchen, and music. Thanks to a wealth of new support I think I should be ready fairly soon to make some much needed changes to my lj page…making the focus primarily on food, recipes, and healthy happy living.
A few questions ran through my mind this morning that I wanted to ask anyone who might frequently read what I write. Please answer them if you feel like it! I’d love to get to know my lj friends better.
Here are the questions, with my answers:
What activities make you really happy? Running. Sitting on the couch with my hubby and having a good conversation. Hula-hooping in my back yard with friends, or family.
What part of the day are you most happy? I think in the morning – after my shower – when I get to wake up Lucy with kisses and feed her breakfast. Then, when I get home in the afternoon, to get hugs from my sweetie, and go for a run. This is subject to change though :)
What small “thing” or part of your daily routine to you truly enjoy? This is a hard one…I’ve really been enjoying getting my breakfast and lunch ready every day before I go to work. Also – my daily run(go figure), and the morning stretching that I’ve gotten in the habit of is sort of nice too.
