San Diego















Well, I just got back from a wonderful vacation with my cousin JB to San Diego. We left on the 23rd and came home on the 28th. We stayed at a hotel that was just across the harbor from a Navy Base and saw quite a few ships headed out to sea.


Sunday we drove up to LA to visit JB's brother and his family. We had fun with the kids and after a nice family dinner drove back to San Diego.



Monday we jumped in the car with no real plans, but ended up in Old Town and had a lot of fun looking in all the little shops, ok, shopping in all the little shops. Monday night we watched the new Night at the Museum, which was great, and we are still quoting lines from the movie.



Tuesday we did some shopping at the mall and then enjoyed massages. Tuesday evening we went to dinner with JB's cousin and his girlfriend at this great place that overlooked the ocean.



Wednesday we did some site seeing at Cabrillo National Monument, Coronado Island and then we napped on the beach, and yes, I have a sun burn!



We had a great time, but it is nice to be back. Well, with the exception of the homework!

What I Am Really Good At

Well, obviously I am not good at keeping my posts up to date. My sister wrote something on here back in April, and I just now saw it. Needless to say, life has been busy. So, what am I really good at.... procrastinating homework!!! Yes, homework. I am starting back to school to get a doctorate degree in psychology, and I will do just about anything to avoid doing my homework!!! Even update my blog!
So, why am I going back to school.... funny thing. I have always wanted to get a doctorate degree and even looked into a few different programs over the years. Over the past few months my life has felt a bit out of control with so many things going on. I knew it was time for something to change. I considered switching jobs, moving out of state.... becomming homeless.... just about anything to get some type of change and feel like my life was more in control. So what did I do, well I prayed. Trust me, going back to school was not the answer I anticipated. I thought, maybe I'll get a big raise and only have to work one job, maybe I'll meet Mr. Right and he'll be rich... but no, the answer was to go back to school. My term started last week and I have a project due on Saturday and I'm having a difficult time getting back into the mindset of homework.
So, that's my latest life update. I hope you are all doing well!!!!
