well today was quite a uneventful day...we woke up early and did some work around the new house, has the carpets cleaned, pulled weeds, watered ect, and got home with plenty of time to watch the mj funeral....didnt get too emotional until little paris spoke....we both cried, but i can't decide how i feel about the whole thing...did she want to speak? i just can't help but feel like the jacksons yet again forced the poor thing on stage. its a sad situation, no need to be negative i suppose.
than, as i watered the lawn with arash, i got stung by a bee!i felt sick for about an hour, now i am much better....
we had a little photo shoot with the girls last night....we are almost all packed up for the new house, so they have been my entertainment!
betty, in her faux fur coat just remings me of a little old lady, like a spinster from Manhattan, all dressed up!paige, my little geisha girl, and rosie in the hoodie just reminds me of a gangster rapper.oh life without my doggies would be miserable.

that is also a photo of our new abode, we are beyond thrilled, more pictures to come!

2009-07-06T22:29:00.000-07:00

i know i know, its been months...finally ive gotten around to uploading hundreds of photos from my camera, so i should be blogging regularly again.
things are moving along, we are closing escrow tommorow.
we had our new house painted yesterday, all white with a dark grey dining room...i lover it! will blog tomorrow...
these pictures are of my birthday dinner at wabi sabi, and the bottom 2 are of our 1st wedding anniversary in newport.we stayed at an amazing hotel called the beachwalk, than we ate at a Mediterranean french restaurant called "le Bistro", the fod and wine were amazing, but the gondola ride surprise following dessert was the best. hubby is so romantic and thoughtful!

2009-02-03T12:33:00.000-08:00

its official,rosie is moving in.

2009-01-28T21:52:00.000-08:00

dinner night with the asefs!
yummooooo!
we have really been using our cookbooks, we made a delicious soy and sesame beef stir fry with prosciutto wrapped parmigian smothered asparagus!

2009-01-28T21:48:00.000-08:00

meet rosie.
shes our baby...
we had to keep one this time,arash never got over the fact i didnt let him keep one last time.so here we are, with rosie,our new puppy<3
also, heres our litter of little piggies.theyre so big and chubby now!

false alarm!

2009-01-15T14:40:00.000-08:00

every now and them betty gets a little emotional, but since the puppies arrival she really been on a good one.
she is going through a false pregnancy,this had happened before, but this time its much worse.she has this little purple toy, (which was the very first toy she ever had),and during one of these phases she believes her little toy is a baby!
she nests with it, she carries it around everywhere, she cries and growls if anyone comes near her baby.
poor girl, shes even lactating. weird right.
anyhow,my pupps are teething so paige is spending as little time with the as possible...ouch! and she no longer minds if betty goes near them, so betty has forgotton about her baby now, and she now spends all her time with the puppies!

2009-01-14T10:25:00.000-08:00

1. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests you think she's pregnant unless you see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.

2. The most powerful force in the universe is gossip.

3. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we all believe we are excellent drivers.

4. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age 11.

5. There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness.

"

6. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.

7. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be "meetings.

"

8. The main accomplishment of almost all organized protests is to annoy people who are not in them.

9. If there really is a God who created the entire universe with all of its glories, and He decides to deliver a message to humanity, He will NOT use, as His messenger, a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle and too much make-up.

10. You should not confuse your career with your life.

11. A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter is not a nice person.

12. No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.

13. When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Usually, that individual is crazy.

14. Your friends love you anyway.

15. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
