It was a hard month. My birthday is in December and it was the first one without my Tia. Christmas came. I applied to <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-size:180%;" >U<span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 51);">S</span>C</span> for my master's.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 255); font-weight: bold;">January</span></span>, I received my letter of acceptance, completed orientation and financial aid... all in one month. Work was going well... not on the top of my game. <br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:180%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span> The rain came in <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-size:180%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">February</span></span>...so did my ignition for work. I think my sadness finally faded. I started my first course, a framing course. Four papers in four weeks.<br /><br /><br />Now here we are in <span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">March</span></span> and my work life is a joke. I went on two major business trips and the CEO has not even asked for an update. The site is running... maybe my department is doing well and floating on... or maybe we are in trouble and he is holding information back. <br /><br />Am I happy at work? I am with my job. I am with the clients. I am with my peers. Where is my boss? Who is he? That is problem. I so looked forward to fresh leadership and prosperity, however we have chaos and despair.Estrella Lunahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302018267587224395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9723776.post-29491954562638725022009-11-25T07:46:00.000-08:002009-11-25T08:10:22.698-08:00time alone<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzTCknOxfMMmbbXDnqkSh63h0BDbany3A4Z-mUexEa-BEfhNexPGXuYRIJJsRFOPf7KJT0G7WA9iZKDvyXPMLftjGTzfpRAwi5CA8HU1tauInL5g0bLa0pc0XTQJYQY9i7i6BL/s1600/IMG_5562c.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

They are talking about the times when they would sit in front of the TV store on Main Street and watch the world series through the window. They also spoke of taking bread, Bologna and cheese to the lake to go fishing. Popcorn, apples and home made fudge while listening to the radio. Jack Benny? They spoke of this time as the next gilded age. Talking about how everyone is hooked on computers, laptops and smart phones. Yet they are just as hip as the younger generation. Earlier that talked about how they no longer have a long distance service provider because they use their cell phone. They went on to talk about costumes... one saw a family dresses up as Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez. She described the outfit in detail. The "chunky" high heels, dainty cardigan, and long eye lashes. I love listening to stories. I know I'm eves dropping, but they were so intriguing, as they sipped on their coffee and reminisced over the past and discussed the present. However, not once did the conversation ever go to the future. Then, the gentleman got up to look for a book on diabetes. Delightful, that's how one of the ladies described this experience. They all know each other from church. I wish my grandma's had friends like these. People to hang with, that remember the good 'ol days and are living life in the now. They went on to talk about how they love bookstores, but it's hard to find a good book. So here I am. Sitting and typing, while my husband looks for books. I sit sipping on my coffee, typing and wondering if any of it matters, or will I be sitting in the bookstore talking about the good ol days of WiFi, mini computers and watching things on Hulu. </div>Estrella Lunahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302018267587224395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9723776.post-11628096991737853572009-11-01T10:16:00.000-08:002009-11-01T13:10:40.502-08:00Life, Dia de los Muertos and our yard<div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqqw2zaMRzv9f9ZQHXWvSXPO8_1UEImDMyNWEucOEyuTJPjesbdbxzbMZHHT9GEklo0I6NgP3AxvMAMVU0ef-_ytD9jd5KAssjKAqvL7zmx0cwFOrFj0AwGDshyphenhyphenlpydPVFAhxs/s1600-h/IMG_5115.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

The best part was that he did not have a clue. It was a full on surprise. Friday after work, wished him a happy 30 and I would see him on Monday. That night my husband and I, co-workers and his friends and family parked on an adjoining street, hid out in his house and surprise. Life is good. My hubby was great. I love watching him be the social butterfly that he is.Estrella Lunahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302018267587224395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9723776.post-61981850356746577542009-10-14T20:06:00.000-07:002009-10-14T20:25:40.553-07:00On the road...

My extended family. I feel disconnected from them . Not so much my mother's side. We grow closer through of all things.... <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Facebook</span>. Her family stretches from Washington down to Arizona all the way across to Maine. It's a huge family. I always describe that side as the tower of Babel. My fathers side. That is were I see the change. We are all going on with our lives. The family parties and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">BBQ's</span> are becoming a thing of the past. Either the "cousins" are moving on with significant others or off in the college world. It might just be our time of growth or the new direction only to cross at major events. It's funny. There are only four children between my Grandparents, yet they all turned out so different. The Grandchildren... well sometimes you would not even know we were related. I'm finding myself looking towards my second cousins for connections. It's an interesting progression of life to watch. I would like to document the changes through pictures, however my drive to find beauty in <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">allof</span> it is sometimes stifled by the awkwardness of it all.

Good question. After I finally got a hold of time and realized life must continue. Staying in contact with my mom and her journey to find my grandmother a new house, our house was robbed and my laptop was stolen, then when I feel that it's going to be ok, with every nook and cranny magnetized and ready to go, my grandmother calls. My other grandmother. She feels sick. She has two daughters, my parents and numerous cousins. She called me. sigh. It's scary to get that call. She is the elder of the family and I have no idea about elder care. How much to push, how much is normal. I drove over as fast as I could. Ran out of the car and up the steps of her early 1900's home. She looked ill. As I was driving I called my aunt and told her she had called. she said she would meet me. I took grandma and my tia followed. What a rush. In the end, grandma had low potassium and she suffers from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastroesophageal_reflux_disease">GERD</a>. So some pills, bananas and OJ. The GERD was cause her to dry heave, which was causing her body to become weak, head ache and sleepy. I was more than happy to purchase her pills and take her home. Scary. <br /><br />Rambling post, I know. <br /><br />Since the loss of my computer, I have no pictures to post. SO some of my creative juices have become dry and stale. I hope to get back on the ball soon. I miss posting pictures.Estrella Lunahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302018267587224395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9723776.post-60804552565293515282009-07-12T22:04:00.000-07:002009-07-12T22:13:17.224-07:00Story TimeLife is interesting.<br /><br />Why do things happen.

It was the freezer section. I was browsing through when I ran into my Mom and my Uncle "Jose". They did not know how to pick crab meat. They looked and looked and did not know what a good cut look like ( I know... sounds like steak) and they did not know when it was ripe for harvesting. Then they came to a vein, similar to those you find in the mountains containing gold. The vein was a actually crab meat, and they went back and forth debating whether it was rip or not. The whole time I stood there watching. My mom with an aura of innocent and cuteness, my uncle with the aura of "I know it all" ... then at that moment, my tia came from behind and said " just tell them that's that right one". So I did.Estrella Lunahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302018267587224395noreply@blogger.com
