Last one to turn 30
Went to a surprise Birthday Party for a co-worker. 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.
On the road... I need some Chicana time soon...
A ice chest, snacks...
drive by and pick up my husband...
a place where all is forgotten and new
jeans and hiking boots
gloves and scarfs
my cameras and sunglasses
I want to taste the wind, capture the light and hear life sing the soft song after a cool rain on her skin.
The world around us has changed. Think of it as a mandala. My husband and I are in the middle and all around there is shifting. It's hard because we have watched the shifts and kind of just took the batten down the hatches approach. We can not change what is in a natural motion of life for others, we can only be there for them. My cousin just went off for a second round ... air force. My other cousins came down for a dinner that I did not attend. Something told me not to. An aunt celebrated a 60th... not invited. I can't bring myself to take a painting my tia did to work... I brought it home after her death. I sits on an easel over my desk here at home. I can't take it in fear of crying. Dia de los Muertos is coming up.... no friends to help decorate... all have "things" in their lives. I'm a little frustrated.
Work .... work.... it's going great. We are being used as a flagship for an expansion of the company. I have 40 people "dropping" in next week... to see little 'ol me and my crew. Amazing.
so as always... here are some pictures, because in a time of isolation, frustration or loss... my clouds.
I can't wait to be my husband's date this Friday... I'm going to cha cha it up.
San Diego for Work

By Thursday night, I was a little moody.
I missed him.
With every business trip comes the business dinners. Some better then others. My favorite was eating Ice Cream with my female co-workers around the outdoor fire place, listening to stories of marriage, children and life.

Fall
Fall is here. Well as much as fall as So Cal will allow. It 9:49 pm and it's about 79 degrees outside. How can I tell it's fall....my husband and I walked through Micheal's craft store today... I wanted to buy it all! Then we went into World Market.... sigh. I Love the fall.
Oh were oh where did the little bird go?
Here I am.
Time, my time.
It's been filled, not a bad thing. I have spent a lot of time with my husband. We just celebrated out 7th wedding anniversary and it was wonderful. I think every year I fall deeper in love with him. No life is not perfect for us and we do struggle sometimes, however we come out stronger through every obstacle put in front of us. I can not wait for our ten year. That in itself will be fabulous.
On the road again
Normalcy has finally come back into our lives.
"There's a world outside every darkened door Where Blues won't haunt you anymore For the brave are free and lovers soar Come ride with me to the distant shore
Life is a highway, I wanna ride it All night long If you're going my way, I wanna drive it All night long "
