Anaheim or Bust

Honestly, I do not know how the people in California tolerate driving on the freeways. And why is it called a freeway anyway? They are not free of traffic...or free of stress...

We drove down from Pleasanton, Ca and planned to arrive at Anaheim at around 1:15 according to the GPS we refer to as Gabby. Driving south on the "5" was fairly smooth until we reached the Los Angeles city limits. Bam! Traffic came to a standstill, followed by stop and go traffic for the next 20 miles. Fred repeatedly said the brake on my side of the car does not offer any advantage while driving, but it acts as a stress relief for me.

As my eyes continued to watch the ETA on Gabby, the time kept increasing. With a mere 17 miles left, Gabby now estimated a new ETA of 2:17. She still didn't have it right! We pulled into Harbor RV Resort at 2:35.

Our plans for the next several days include renting a car and seeing the sights. Yes, we may pay a visit to Disneyland but more importantly, we plan on spending Easter Sunday with my favorite niece, Stephanie.

A Peak at 2010 for Fellow Taureans

Year 2010 Overview Taurus always gets tagged with things like "pleasure-seeking" and "materialistic." That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life the last couple of years when it comes to those two very important parts of your life. Thankfully, 2010 marks the end of that long uphill struggle . Your pleasurable pursuits have been a little more restricted than you'd like over the course of the last two years or so. That's over with now, so ... game on! The big events this year will not so much be a matter of major happenings as they will be things that have been in the works and are slowly revealing themselves . In the last two years, you've put a lot of work into what makes you happy, while Saturn transited your solar Fifth House. Now that those pressures are finally bei...

Christmas in July Give A Way

What better way to celebrate the middle of summer with a give a way for one lucky blogging friend? Just because I want to, I will be giving away a Christmas box with an accordion album. This happens to be my design and I have already given one away last December. Sorry, Kate , you will have to sit this one out! This paper mache box holds an accordion album inside. More than likely, I will make a minor modification to the box before shipping it to its new home. I really love these vintage papers from Melissa Frances Scrapbook . Her collection of designs and patterns reminds me of a little sea side cottage. I can smell the ocean spray right now. These papers bring me back to a time when I think I would have loved to live…The Victorian Age. But let’s not fool anyone, I want all of the modern day luxuries. This paper on the left takes me back to a time when I played with cut outs. I was never a doll kid, but give me cut outs and I was happy for days. S o if you think you would ...
