Wearing Shoes?!?!


This is such a long overdue post, but Jeff gave me the brilliant idea to post of a pic of me wearing shoes again! I haven't worn a normal pair of shoes since August! So it has been such a long time since I have worn normal shoes. It just a baby step towards heels but at least I don't have to wear the boot!

Saving the Planet

WE'RE GOING GREEN!!

Well, we tried!!! Jeff decided to try out a fluorescent light bulb in our front light of the living room, I came home from work and immediately turned the light off! That was the worst glow of a light I have ever seen. The pictures seem to make it somewhat pleasant but really...it wasn't!!

So until they come up with another way we will continue to use our energy burning bulbs, drive out sporty car and purchase an SUV! But to make up for all our environmental harm I will continue to recycle my wine bottles!!

Foot Update

Well the foot seems to healing a little. I was able to go to the gym and actually ride the bike for about 15 minutes. The past fews weeks once I walk in and do some weights my foot is killing me, so this has been a good improvement. I am still sporting the boot as my foot is still swollen and hurts if anything is too thight around it. I go back to the doctors after Thanksgiving for an X ray to be sure it is healing, but overall it looks a lot better!

Beach House

We arrived at the Beach House on Wednesday and it was super foggy and rain was in the forecast for Friday and Saturday so we weren't too hopeful on being able to spend a lot of time at the beach. But Wednesday night we made a good dinner and indulged in some wine and movies.

On Thursday we headed into Mendocino to cruise some little shops and check out the town. We went to lunch at this total dive but it had an awesome view of the ocean. At one point out the window from the resturant there was a bird fluttering above us and I told Jeff to check it out and was curious becuase I had never seen a bird fly like that before! Well, we took pictures to show you all but once Jeff pointed out that the bird is on a string...the light went on!



Friday was awesome weather it was hot!! No need for the fire we need some cold air in the house. We went to the beach and took a long walk. Our foot prints in the sand looked so funny I wished we had brought the camera, my boot didn't leave a mark in the sand so there was our trail of only 3 foot prints. Then we went went back down again later (no camera again) it was low tide and I we went over to the tide pools only to remember I am a gimp and can't go on adventures but on the way back to the car there was a huge starfish in the shallow water. It had 22 arms....I have never seen such a thing....I made Jeff count them with me...it was amazing!

Saturday it rained the entire day! It was nice to stay in, watch movies and read books and not feel like we should be somewhere or be doing something. It was such a fun day! We went in the spa in the rain and I kicked Jeff's butt at Phase 10!

Well, here are some pictures of our trip. We can't wait to go back!
