Is this happening to anyone else

For some reason blogger keeps freezing my computer and when I click to read blogs, the pages are not downloading. Is it just me?

I can make it....i think

Finished book 6

I am a little behind but I just finished HP book 6. E has book 7 and just started it today. I think we are going to have share the book. I am too excited to find out what happens and if I wait for him to finish it, it will be 2008 before I can read it. Plus I know my friend L is just aching to talk to someone about the book :)

Going Commando

Well not really but it certainly feels that liberating!! I have officially gone private with my blog. I am excited about my internet friends who have asked to join the party. Going forward I hope to be more vocal about my opinions, thoughts and my daily happenings. My hope for you who are along for the ride will still receive the same if not more reading enjoyment as before.

I hope you have a glass of something with you because it is cause for celebration! I have my wine with me and I am waiting for Eli to get home so we can crack open the cheap bottle of champagne.

WE ARE MOVING TO SAN FRANCISCO!!!!

Yes...i am trading in my year round swimsuit, my ragging summer tan and SoCal warm temps for year round fleeces, morning and evening fog and most importantly for having solid, wonderful friends and family around us!!

This "movement" started back in April when we were in the bay area for a wedding and as we were walking around the city. We started talking about how neither of us just wasn't happy in the OC. We each shared what we thought was missing/problem. I then got annoyed that it took us 6 months to have this conversation but I guess we as individuals needed to figure it out on our own if we liked it here or not.

A couple of days later I went to E to tell him I was ready to move to the Bay Area. Last year, I was not. I hated the idea of moving away from MY friends and family to go live near HIS family and friends--this is how we ended up in OC. Now I am fully ready and willing to be near those individuals who I have come to love and trust dearly and have welcomed me with open arms.

So here we are. I have a NEW job waiting for me and E is transferring with SW. Now it comes to the details of when the move will take place. I feel like an old pro at this.

Back at the homestead

So I am back working from home. I drove up to LA on Friday, Monday and Tuesday. I had it by Wednesday. I set my computer back up at home--oh I forgot to mention that I was carting around my desktop back and forth. THAT topic is a discussion for another day. Anyway..back at home to where my life is no longer in danger. I got to witness a rear end accident on the way into work last Friday. The accident occurred a little too close to my car for comfort. For all of you who have to commute. I empathise so much. I understand commutes are all relative to where you live and if it sucks for you, I feel your pain.

I am excited for the weekend. No beach yoga this weekend. Darn! We don't have many plans or rather any plans. E has to work his normal double shift. I am sure I will find some trouble to get into on my own. Next weekend, I am heading to Chicago for my good friend's shower and bachelorette. I also FINALLY get to meet my niece. I will for sure have pictures to post.

***I am going private this weekend*** Please send me your email if you would like to continue hearing about our lives.

Made it...in about two hours

I did make it to my new office today. However, it took me literally two hours to get here. When I got here, I found out that the furniture did not arrive so me, my coworker and my boss are all sitting on the floor working. I am trying REALLY hard to keep my grumblings to myself.

It is 3pm now and I am starting to dread the drive home. I am wondering what time should I leave so that I can sqeak by on the traffic--then I remember--oh wait I am in LA there is no such thing as no traffic. I am definitely heading to Coffee bean before the trip home. I will probably come up here again tomorrow but the rest of the week I am working in my safe confines of my apartment. Maybe a hair ball or two isn't so bad ;)
