home

been back home for a week now. time sure does go by so fast these days. i guess that's the difference of being happy and sad. when you are happy days just fly past you and when you're sad, well you get the idea. california is experiencing a heat wave. i sure am glad to be experiencing san francisco's version of it. i went to venice beach a couple weeks ago and cut my trip super short because i couldn't deal with the amount of perspiration pouring out of my body. not to mention trying to sleep in that. riley and i spent most of the night awake wondering if we should just get in the car and go. i am glad i went though cuz i purchased my favorite new shirt there. it's a lovely knit top by margaret o'leary. i also got to spend a great day with rosie. we went to the santa monica farmers market (not bad), did some shopping on abbot kinney, montana and drank some delish coffe from groundworks. my dad and i also got to spend some quality time. although our plan to take the dogs to the dog beach washed away when we arrived to high tide and no beach. all in all it was worth the pain and suffering. i am such a baby when it comes to being hot and even more of a baby in humidity. thank the lord those summers of chicago and new york are behind me. san francisco summers are all about cute light sweaters. how happy this makes me. especially since saks was having this crazy sale in palm springs and no one was snatching up the warmer clothes so i was able to make my second favorite new purchase. it's sort of a three quarter sleeve sweatshirt jacket that doesn't button up. it's super cute is what i am trying to say. i have already put it in the rotation. so i'm super happy to be back home and welcome the high tempature's of 75 when i know how bad it could be.
