Flossie

Tropical storm Flossie coming close! Always better to be safe than sorry. We have a lot of warnings for tsunamis and floods& thankfully, we haven't had to experience any real emergencies. But can you imagine???!! Being stuck...on an island..during something like that? Mike and his family experienced when hurricane Iniki hit Kauai..homes completely destroyed and no running water/electricity for weeks! So now, he's always prepared--generator and all! (Good for me) But hopefully it will just be heavy rain that passes...just always pray the best!

I have been having the worst insomnia. Staying up til 4-5am on my days off cuz I simply can't sleep! I think even Melatonin stopped working for me....there's only so many lives I have on Candy Crush, things I can look at on Pinterest, people I follow on Fb/IG. I have watched so many movies...and it's so annoying. The idea of switching to day shift always crosses my mind but I will surely miss my night crew! Oh well not making a decision just yet...

I wish Mike was a nurse so he could have as many days off as me..& go on vacations as much as our schedule allows. I think of all my nursing couple friends...& i think it's sooo cool!! Then he could stay awake with me in the wee hours of the night! I could wake Him up without feeling bad!!! Oooh the perks! Oh well guess ill go bug Koko! ;)

lalalalalalaaaaaaa

I am on my 2nd movie at work. First, Burlesque. Next, the Blind Side. & after..probably infomercials..BOOO!! Stuck with one patient on our overflow side..so I'm just cruuuising!

Super bored. 

So I'm all moved in. Feels great to be normal again! My schedule is actually normal too now, so yay! Started running around my hood..and got a hot yoga groupon with Jamie. That was interesting!!! Hahah!! We are such the wannabe yogis ..

My puppy is a cool teenager now. She likes to hide under our bed and be by herself..too cool for her parents! Pretty funny. She's so funny..wish I could take her to Sd with us so u guys could meet her!

Hmm what else? Been trying to learn how to surf still..but dammit, it's so hard! Haha! Part of the reason I started running so I could have a little stamina. Not so easy learning new tricks when ur old! Lol!

Mike has also been wanting to check out this church called One love ministry so we actually went. It wasn't a catholic church..it was Christian. definitely different. Uplifting..Kind of reminded me of prayer meetings with Spirit of love. Everyone was super welcoming...Mike wants to go back. I'm down...just happy he is finding some kind of relationship with God? Beats no church at all! Haha. 

Anyways..I need new clothes. I seriously haven't been shopping in ages! Haven't bought a new outfit in forever! I remember I used to buy a new shirt every time I would go out...now I'm soo scrubby! hahah! I haven't even bought new scrubs for work for over 3yrs..they're all faded, lol! Is this what hawaii has done to me?

K enough rambling. Peace, love, shopping, and praying for one more movie to make the night quick!!! Lol!

Awoha!!

Wahh!

I'm a sad puppy mom this morning:(  I dropped my little furry friend to get spayed today. She'll be at the vet overnight. Came home to an empty house, nobody following my every step in the house and attached to my hip!!  My little furry bff. Hahah awww, I cannot imagine having a kid and having to be separated from them if this is how I am with a dog, lol!! 

This is Koko's new crate. We upgraded her to "high ceilings" since she's a big girl now:)

Other than that, no other big news! I know Sd fair opened. Went the other wknd with Mike and although I have learned to stop comparing honolulu to Sd , SD fair is like 20x bigger and better!! Lol!! No bomb bomb food, no themes, exhibits, shopping, animals, etc. :( hopefully next year ill plan a trip home around this time so I can go, it's been soo long!

kinda like those little fairs at kimball park in national city yah?!

Moving is coming along. Most of the moving has been done by...ME! haha. Mike was just assigned his first project and boy, have his long engineering workdays begun! Sometimes he even goes in on Saturdays! I feel sorry cuz here I am working 3x/wk and trying to get cancelled, lol. So yah, I've just been moving which I don't mind. I can be more organized and know where everything is. Either way, can't wait to just be moved in so I can have normalcy in my life again😁 I need to go back to the gym, cook my meals, sit down and read/watch tv, and just not feel like I always have to be moving stuff all the time haha.

           My small humble abode...

Anyways, miss everybooody! Since i cant go home til August, this will probably be the longest stretch I haven't been to SD since I moved out here. Haha, not even that long but sheesh..Im getting antsy! i wanna see G and J, and squeeze them! eat some legit carne asada fries! go to downtown and act like I'm 21! Haha. And  of course just kick it with everyone, even if its doing nothing! Sigh..haha!

Jamie's big 2-9 this wknd...!! will definitely take a break from moving to celebrate! Can't believe how old we're getting..
