So so tired.

Just woke up from passing out cold in one of my parent’s comfy chairs while watching “Ghost Town”. Good movie but my eyelids got too heavy. My boots are here though, more about that tomorrow. I need to focus on waking up enough to drive home right now.

Up, up and away.

The No Doubt concert was so much fun last night!

Now I’m all packed up and ready to go. The husband and I are on our way to Seattle and Vancouver. It’s going to be great trip. The shop will re-open when I get back.

Ciao bellas!

Plans are Good

The alphabet series is finished so now I’m researching and writing drafts to get this bad boy in book form. So much is going on right now, it’s funny how that happens. Everything is dead and then boom, plans coming out of my ears.

I signed up for Bolder Boulder on Memorial Day which is the biggest race in Colorado and it is 10k. I’m in the jogger/walker leg so I don’t get trampled, hopefully. Back in high school I ran track but I was a sprinter and it’s been awhile since I’ve done anything like this so this should be interesting. Then on the 27th my husband and some friends of ours are going to see No Doubt in concert with Paramore opening for them. Can not wait!! My new passport came so later that week Raul and I are flying out to Seattle and then driving to Vancouver to visit family. We’ve both never been to either so we’re so excited. A vacation is in order! If you know of any cool spots we should check out, let me know.

Then in less than a month we’ll have our one year anniversary. It’s cliche but the time flew faster than a speeding bullet. Unbelievable.

happy mother's day

We split up Mother’s Day so we celebrated with my mom yesterday and Raul’s mom today.

the meal

Today Raul’s mom and brother came over to our house and we had bouillabaisse.  So delicious!  Love love seafood.

the gift

I couldn’t think of a gift to purchase this year so I went to traditional art and made this print for my mom.  It represents spring since with both go crazy for this time of year.  No more bare tree limbs, give me lush leaves and birds anytime.

Shingles Aren’t Just For Roofs

My back has been hurting a little bit.  Just my right side and it’s sort of like a spasm that just won’t relax.  During the past three days if I dropped something I would just leave it because it started getting difficult to bend over.

I went to the doctor yesterday and after saying, “my back hurts, yup, right there”, a diagnosis for shingles was given to me.  I’m a little skeptical but I’m all for early intervention before all hell breaks loose.  I had chicken pox when I was little and I do not want a re-cap. I’m on antiviral medication for seven days ever four hours (fun!), Vicodin (more fun!) and an anti-inflammatory for the soreness.

In happier news a new Sephora is opening up today so I’m trying to be one of the first 100 people that can win an awesome goodie from the goodie bag.  Wish me luck!
