a few more posts left with photos from the trip to scottsdale and the montelucia resort. I really can't say enough about how gorgeous and relaxing that place is. just really fantastic. on this day we went to the pool early in the day and then made sure to get around to seeing downtown scottsdale and it was lovely to be in some what civilization again. being there was almost like being in a mini east bay (SF bay). very busy this week with class and getting everything in order for the next few months. hope life is treating all of you fabulously! :)

friday! I'm sure almost all of you are off to enjoy your long long weekend and I hope you are all soaking up that last bit of summer. my two day excursion to scottsdale was simply amazing! the resort was beyond gorgeous and I have plenty of photos to show you next week. we had a fantastic birthday celebration this year and thankfully it has helped me to avoid a quarter life crisis at the thought of turning 25. until then... remember to enter the give away by commenting on this week's california trip posts! winner of the "autumn goodie bag" announced on monday. buon weekend all!

something about the sunshine baby.

oh. my. goodness.
yesterday was the nightmare day that just kept happening. I think that it had to have been a result of karma. not karma in the sense that I have been projecting negative thoughts and actions into the atmosphere. but karma in the sense that things have been going so well for us lately, that the universe feels that it needs to do its little balancing act. I am a firm believer in balance, and I know that for the world to keep spinning a little misfortune sometimes has to be blended in with all of the wonderful, happy things.
so like I was saying, karma. the karma gods decided to hit us hard yesterday.

"oh you think you can just buy a house and get away with it?"

"um... yeah?"

*laughter*

"nope, sorry. doesn't work that way."

to sum up to situation in a quick recap, our land lady from our old apartment has decided not to let us out of the lease as promised. she is now claiming that we owe her not only for rent for the next three months, but late fees as well. she told me ever so politely to drop off a cashier's check for the amount of 3,485 dollars at the office today.

oh yeah. totally, no problem. I will just fork over all that money I don't have to pay you for a place we are not even living in. I'm perfectly cool with that.

are you kidding me lady? anyways, there is the deal. yesterday is over and I'm moving on to today. its the hubby's day off and we are going to enjoy ourselves by doing things around our new home. such as painting! I will post pictures as soon as I get some color up on these bare walls. :)

anyways, here are some pictures from the other day. enjoy.

did I mention I love hats? well, yes I do.
dear hat, thank you for saving me from my bad hair day. you work wonders. love, me.

I also love cut off shorts with tights. I feel like I am super rocker chic when I wear that combo.

one of my favorite finds at the market in venice. the blue color is out of this world.

well, I hope you enjoyed our drama. we have been on the crazy roller coaster of life this past month and there is no end in sight. I hope that your week is faring better then ours so far. and if it isn't? go out and make something positive happen anyways. :)

peace out. and rock on.

xoxo
