Engagment Photo




We had engagement pictures taken this past Sunday. Even though I felt like complete crap from a sinus infection, I still mustered up a smile.

My trip to San Diego


This was a sign outside of the Agave Grill, where we ate lunch at one day. I found it humerous so I snapped a pic with my phone. I have never seen a restaurant's dress policy that references du-rags and wife beaters! Funny...



View from where I ate lunch one day, at the Fish Market. It was breath taking. And the food was excellent. I had shrimp/scallops/bacon skewers with jasmine rice and steamed veggies. Yumm-o.







This larger than life replica of the famous kissing sailor picture was outside of the Fish Market. It was so neat to see this. I wish I knew it's dimensions. HUGE.

Yes, I did more than just eat in San Diego! Besides the work I had to do during the day, I was also fortunate enough to visit with some family & friends that lived a couple of hours outside of where I was at. My half-sister Marianne (my dad's daughter) drove down and we had dinner and looked through some photo albums she brought by. Really enjoyed my visit with her. Too bad we don't live closer together. We'd hang out often I'm sure. Also had a friend attending USC who drove down for the evening. Hung out at an Irish Pub playing trivia and putting back some beers, and vodka/red bulls...yikes! That was my first time drinking those and I must say, they're pretty good. She insisted on Grey Goose because it avoids a hang over. Thanks Amber! It worked :-)

All in all, it was a good trip and I'd move there in a heart beat.

LOVE IT


I think this is it folks! Not too fluffy, no crynalin, no train, not white, I think it's just perfect! This is an "Antique 30's Style" silk gown. Not sure I want to pull off a finger-wave hair style to go along with it, nor vintage shoes (they are a little ugly IMO), but this is a good start!

SCAM ALERT

Since I decided to try this brilliant idea of Acai Berry, I have had 2 unauthorized withdrawals of funds from my checking account. One from "Fit Factory" and the other 2 from "Price Limbo".
I have had to wait and wait AND WAIT on hold for Lord knows how long to clear these issues up with their "customer NO-service". There are little "extra's" that you apparently sign up for when
feverishly typing your order info for the golden diet pills. SOOO...my word of advice?
*choke*...lose your weight the old fashioned way. And DON'T ORDER ACAI BERRY FROM THE INTERNET!!!

Yes, I am guilty...


I will admit. I fell for the 1 billion Acai Berry advertisements I've been seeing strewn all over the internet. I got my free trial on Monday. I actually have a 2nd free trial on it's way because I ordered this stuff 3 weeks ago and they said delivery in 5-6 days so I called and complained.
I am on my 3rd day of taking it. The pills are melt-away tablets and actually taste really good! I take 2 a half hour before I eat.
I can vouch that my energy level has increased, I actually feel it. However, my weight, has not budged, but then again, it's only been 3 days.
Heck yeah I want to look sexy this summer! I believe I'll be wearing a bikini on some beach somewhere on my HONEYMOON!!
I'll let ya'll know if this is a scam or if it actually works (if you are curious...I know I was).
Yes mom, I know I need to exercise too. Blah.
