Happy Friday!

So, with a little time off from work (my other real job), I had time to get out and take some pics for myself. Just another
beautiful sunny day in southern California. Darn it. Although I love to visit this place, this time it was not for me. (Except for a few photos and a UV lens protector) I did take a step inside the Apple store. The service there is always great. They really don't have to "sell" anythiing. Apple sells itself. Anyway, I was able to talk myself out of a Mac book that right now I really don't need and focus on what I went in for. Can't say what it was just yet. Someone else might read this. I'm off to heat up what looks like an incredible dinner fromJack Stack BBQ, all the way from Kansas City. Thank you so much Dora. It really looks delicious. Also, I am pretty excited that I'm not cooking tonight. For a moment, I thought it was my birthday. Wish me luck with my football picks. If Green Bay would have pulled through, last week would have been mine. I swear I am due to win.

You're in!

Yep, you're in. And trust me, this step is kinda weird for me. For those of you who know me, I am not much of a talker. I guess I tend to stay kind of private. So, this is a weird thing. This has been a year of letting go of fears and new beginnings. I guess this is just the next step in the process. Plus, I am grateful for a blog because it's a great way to let y'all know what I am up to ( without sending out a generic email ) Y'all? Austin Texas is sinking in. Anyway, if you are checking in for the first time, just like me, thanks for the visit. I'll try to keep it up to date. Kona and I are going off for a walk that I promised him two socks, one Ugg boot, and forty five minutes ago. Patient dog.
