It has been forever since I posted and a lot has happened so this is gonna be a long one, grab a coffee or a beer and settle in :o)
Vacation leave off...
Here are some Vegas/Disney and Beverly Hills pictures:
Santa Monica Pier was great, we enjoyed the rides and the beach, then views were beautiful and it was a great atmosphere.
Then we went to Oceanside, it was a stop on the way to San Diego, there was a lot of good shopping.
San Diego. WOW! Loved everything about it. Sea World was a ton of fun with the girls and I loved the zoo and seeing the Panda's. We went to La Jolla beach which was beautiful, there were seals everywhere and the girls enjoyed snorkeling. We also saw dolphins out in the ocean. The girls loved their surprise of Taylor Swift and it was a great show.
Then it was off to San Jose, we stayed at an amazing hotel, it was a mansion that was converted into a hotel. Then we went to San Fransisco to see the Golden Gate Bridge and went through wine country.
Driving up California was beautiful, the Red Wood Forest was beautiful, and the northern oceans were fabulous. I could have lived anywhere in California. I loved our holiday and I can't wait to do it again someday. Our girls were so well behaved, we are excited to have a trip to Hawaii planned for next summer!
Now we are back home... things are back to crazy.
I am working lots. Trying to play catch up is not going well and my old clients are great, new ones are making me crazy. Like today I had a lady mad at me because I didn't have her 14 year old arthritic cocker spaniels legs brushed out and dried perfectly straight, trying to explain to her as I tried to have her dog stand I had to hold up all his weight the whole time as he trickled pee down my arm and shaked because he couldn't handle it. This was after I shampoo'd him 4 times because he smelt to terrible he was making me ill and I still could smell him after that, and after I was done I scrubbed most of my skin off trying to get the smell out, then as I was outside I could still smell the stink in my hair when it blew in the wind, YUCK! So you aren't coming back, OH DARN!!! Then there was the lovely lady who called my home phone 8 times and my business phone 7 times between 9 and 1. New person never groomed her dogs, she wasn't so happy when I called her back and told her I was booking into the middle of October, she started freaking out on me and I hung up the phone. Beauty of working for me, I don't have to put up with it... It may be time to stop taking new clients, I love my regulars... but enough of that rant :o)
Lexi... my big girl is in grade 2 and loving it. She loves her teacher and her class. 10/10 on her first spelling test and she is doing great. She is happy back at dance and working hard on her solo. She is doing a tap solo this year and is loving the hard work! Cello has started again too so she is a busy girl.
Bella... my baby goes to school full time. I miss the little monkey during the day, the house is so quiet, I haven't had a day off yet but I think those wont be much fun without her. She is loving kindergarten and ELP. She likes her teachers and the students. She is happy to go to school everyday which I love! She is also back in dance and will be starting piano lessons in October.
So all in all, life is good. I have lots of plans for some home reno's this winter, we will see what I end up getting done. This weekend is agility so I am excited to play with my girls and hang out with Lexi for the weekend.
I promise to be better at blogging... This was long... over a month and I am sure I missed lots of stuff.
"crazy am I slowly going, six five four three two one SWITCH"
I think the switch should be DRINK!
