Another slow day…

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Worked for some time today and then was off again early, late in the month, somtimes slow.  When the first gets here, it’s on again! We took a nap this afternoon, it was awesome, still raining here.  When we woke up, we had a sushi night, some drinks.  Was fun.  Experimented with some new meat for the sushi.  Dave went to Whole Foods and picked me up a salmon and tuna fillet, not sushi quality, so had to cook them both, made some special ginger-garlic-soy-sesame-lime sauce.  He picked up some cooked shrimp for me to have on standby in case one of them didn’t work out, but as luck would have it, they all turned out great and we had way too much food.  Had lots of Sake and wine.  I tried a new bottle tonight of Yellow Tail Pinor Noir.  I am not a red wine drinker, but I want to be, did a little research and found that Pinor would be a good starter of the transition from blush to red.  At first I wasn’t sure I liked it, but after a few glasses, I think it’s pretty good.  That used to be the case with Jack and Cokes too, the first few may have been hard to get down, but after a couple, it was soooo good.  haha.

Missing home lately…….

Rainy and a slow day

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

Woke up early this morning and got a head start on my work, before I knew it I was done and it was only 10am.  Been raining all morning, been nice and all the leaves are falling the trees.  In the last few weeks, it has been nice seeing all the leaves change from green to yellow to orange, very pretty.  Just made breakfast for the man, bacon and eggs, came out scrumptious.

Roscoe did something funny the other day, have to share.  Set the scene: Dogs are asleep on the living room floor, we have a picture of a huge black tiger on our wall….Roscoe woke up and starting barking at the picture, it woke the other dogs up, it was caos.  After thinking about what he had done, he thought the picture was Pepper!  The dogs have been in the house more and mingling with the cats,  and Pepper is always standing above Roscoe on the sofa or something, so he must have thought it was him.  Ok, didn’t type out as funny as it was, but it was swear!

Making pot roast for din din.

Productive Day

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

Woke up this morning and got right into doing major file clean-up for all our personal and businesses bills and crap.  Man, it can get piled up fast.  I feel good now, knowing it’s all done.  I was about 6 months behind I think.  Hate to admit it!

We are having an Entourage week, we lost track at the start of Season 5, so catching up.  Season 6 is Tivo’d.

Tomorrow starting on a new project/website for my accounting business.  yay.

What I have been doing….

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

Not much going on around here except for work work work!  For over a month I have been working on a new website I put together for a client of mine, http://www.safepilots.us.  That along with all my normal 10 clients plus Jenny’s Bead Factory, I am swamped.  Dave has been a huge help around the house, thanks babe.  Things around our house are for sure different than they were over a year ago, but we are the happiest we have been in I don’t know how long.  Best advice I can give, if you work at a job that you hate, leave and do what you love.  It is the answer, I swear.  Anything else in life just falls into place if your job is in the right place.

Our place has been for sale for a few weeks, no bites yet really, couple lookie-loo’s.

Dave has been building all kinds of neat projects in his makeshift woodshop.  It’s exciting all the new things I am getting for my house.  Spice rack, condiment caddy, sushi plates made out of walnut and maple and the best of all, a new walnut and mapled butcher block/cutting board!  Can’t wait.  Next website I will be doing is building his to start selling some things, so will psot pics when I get them taken.

My new favorite thing… http://www.xobni.com, organizes all your emails and contacts in Outlook.  Loves it.

Back so soon?
