first day

Let me share about my first day of class on saturday...Looks wise I was exhausted and just half way took a shower and threw my hair in a pony tail. I also had a goose bump that was black and blue on my fore head from friday sleep walking trying to get ready for pilates I walked into my cabinet door that was open in my bathroom. Yes it still hurts.

Then I forgot what it was like to be in school/office for a whole day. My hands were freezing and my arthritis in my hands is so bad now just from one day. It sucks.

I thought I was there early but most of the was already there - then at the break one of the other students said to me "is this your first time in photoshop" to which I replied is it that obvious. I was the problem child of the class. The people seam ok that are in the class.

Even now I'm trying to work on stuff from class and can't remember - the teacher said ohh it is all in the book step by step - not really the book explains things but doesn't tell you how to be from point a to b.

Here are a few examples of my work from sunday.


This is suppose to be the girls on the beach with the seal...how ever i just keep getting the cut out of them not the photo. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong but happy that I got that far. Book again not helpful.

White flower before - from Hawaii

Of course this took and hour and half to get this like it and the only color that worked was the ugly one. Don't ask me how I didn't it I can't make it work again. Again the book not helpful.

Hiking

When I'm in LA I like to hike by the sign...I was going to go hiking again on my trip there but now with this - I don't think Jilaine will go with me anymore.

Also I can't imagine what I would have done if Foxy would have found a head!


Authorities Thursday resumed their search for more body parts near the Hollywood sign after a human head, two severed hands and two feet were discovered earlier this week.A professional dog walker and her mother made the first gruesome discovery Tuesday when one of their dogs led them to the head, which was inside a grocery bag Detectives Wednesday found two hands and two feet near the initial discovery in the 3200 block of Canyon Drive.Police are searching missing persons reports to find a match for the victim, a man believed to be in his 40s. CBS2 spoke with a forensic psychologist who says the killer may be involved in organized crime and obviously wanted to draw attention to the murder.“When someone commits a murder, you know, you can dispose of the body in places that are less sensational. And with the Hollywood sign, you know, it may be heard of around the world,” Dr. Don Hoagland said.LAPD officials, however, say they don’t believe that’s the case, but are continuing their investigation.

normal

People you don't need to worry anymore my life has returned back to crazy - in every way. My body is happy and sad we are not sitting around anymore - my arthritis was getting bad not moving - it really is true you have to keep moving with that darn stuff or else you get stuck.

The other strange thing is I went bowling last night. Pilates and just working out made a huge differnece. One I could actually carry a ball and throw it down the alley.

There are photos but I didn't get them uploaded last night to busy watching Glee - it was sooo good I still have one song stuck in my head from the show :)

nothing

Sorry for the random blogs. I have been enjoying doing nothing. I really mean nothing. My life for the last 16 days I have nothing to do. I'm actually getting to the point where I wake up and I'm bored. Which is a good thing I haven't had this for at least 6+ years besides I'm really rested which is also a good thing.

I have been laying in bed and taking everything slowly...yes my pilates schedule has changed so I have to get up on fridays. (I have been late every time in the new year)

This is the last week of this anyway. Then my classes start and other craziness starts. It was great while it lasted. I really missed just being able to lay in bed with nothing to do!

Hope you all have a great week.

no pants

This year I could not make it to NYC for this...however they did on in Minneapolis. Notice there is no photos from it because everyone is a big chicken. I can't believe out of everyone I asked to do it nobody wanted to. (I didn't think it was the kind of thing i could do by myself in minneapolis)

Which one now???

I'm back to looking for a new deodorant. The one I had was good I thought till it is sweater season and the scent of it is embedded into my sweater and I can't get it out. I can't keep dry cleaning them every time I wear them. I have been spraying them with lavender and water mixture that kind of helps. UGHHH!

memory

Ahhh the loss of memory is a wonderful thing. I have been sprinkling cinnamon on my peanut butter toast every morning now for about 6 months. I have to say I have seen a little bit of improvement in my memory...that is why I remembered about 20 mins after I threw away my pistachio nut shells I had my earrings in that mess too.

AHH my garbage was full and I had tied it up and it was sitting outside waiting to be thrown in the can. It was a gross one to dig through too. Fruit fermented, coconut milk, dog poo and mashed sweet potatoes. However I found these darn things.

Here is the kicker - I never take my diamond studs out of my ears and for some reason I wanted to wear these instead of my studs. They are from Scotland I got them when I was there the other summer. Craziness I tell you.

New YEar!

Hope everyone had a good new year!!!!!

I have been busy taking care of my girls...Ana started on new years eve throwing up and on new years day she was checked into the animal hospital. She was dehydrated, low potassium and white blood count was off the chart. She stayed there till the night and came home with some antibiotics. They don't know what was or is wrong with her.

Yesterday my other dogs started to throw up and act very mellow. So far she has been ok and ANa is starting to get back to normal. So that is how I have been spending my new year how about you guys :)

I did how ever did get a chance to get some LA plans done for the end of the month. Finally a fun trip to LA. One hint is 2 broke girls and hot in Cleveland.

mural art

This mural always reminds me of Joe when I drive by it. For the nan sayers not the eyes just the whole image and if you can't see it maybe it was just me who saw this side of him

Happy 2012

Happy New Year - 2012-

The crazy thing is that 2 people that I totally love and one I only talk to once a year and the other one I met in Hawaii both said the exact same thing to me before Christmas. "cheers to 2012 and maybe it be the best year ever"
