Saturday Family Day!

Hi, Today we went down to Puerto Nuevo to celebrate my fathers birthday as well as my niece Carla she turned 18th and dad's as he said it is just another anniversary!
The weather was a bit gloomy but we had a fun time with them all, and the lobster was great too! will try to post some pictures later! Once again I do not want to sounds like a broken records but May did fly by! It was a busy emotionally charged month were certain family events rock us all to the core? and the question is, how do you change your mindset when someone you love and care about is not who you thought it was? and this person has lied about pretty much everything for over 3 years? we say wow and are speechless...... and the hardest part how do you explain it to the children or do you? do you let the time pass and hope that it will heal the wounds? even though some of them cut way to deep? at this point I choose to ignore it and move on. will not tell my kids, will live my life as I know it! and then maybe someday we can talk about it.

When I was editing this site I remember a couple of things I do not want to forget!

There are fights everywere you might try to live your life without getting involved but sometimes you can not stand in the sidelines you have to be in it like they say!

I was in it a few times this past few months, do not really want to but had to for my childrens future. I went to the city council meeting to fight for my rights as a tax payer home owner who wants to be in a safe area! and it was so hard to sit there and listen to all this political talk I hated every minute of it. The outcome was in our favor but it was nail bitting!

The other was the Oside school distric meeting, here they are letting go of 61 good teachers! good teachers! I have to say that again and our hands are tied to do anything about it? no we can take action, but just how much tome do we have to take action is the question?? I will take the time to write a letter to Dianne Feinstein and others who should be protecting our children's education, which we can not afford for their future to be ignored.

May has delivered!

Wow mid-May! yes it has been beautiful here in Southern Cal! a bit col than usual but still nice weather. I have been preparing for my daughters 5th birthday! so much to do before Sunday at 1 pm! but working on it! need to check my guest list and order the food! today we spent half the day shopping for some last minute decorations! only to realize once I got home that we still do not have plates! I wonder if we can do with just pretty napkins! This has been a hard and lonely week for me! but need to get myself together for my baby! she only turns 5 once!

Happy End of April!

We had so much rain this month! I am looking forward to all the May flowers!
