Oh yes bay area we have arrived

I found a veterinarian in Oakland for Doc. Thought he should have a regular vet in case. This vet specializes in holistic as well as western medicine. If Doc has to undergo acupuncture I will take many pics and twitter the event. He is so excited about the upcoming visit.

Backup_12_31_07.ipd

The date of my last backup. I'm restoring my new blackberry right now and I'm excited to see life as it was on that day. I remember I was doubting my choice to move to the bay area. I remember saying goodbye to a wonderful house with a garden.

I love it in the bay area. I don't have a doubt I made the right choice. I have a nice garden with tomatoes, lettuce, peas and herbs.

Walked the Golden Gate Bridge.jpg

I walked the Golden Gate Bridge today. After a few failed attempts, I did it.
It was one of my biggest fears for years. Spending a day off just enjoying the city I decided to try. This was the only picture I took and my knees were shaking so hard I didn't look at it until a few minutes ago this evening.

pinwheel starting to bloom

This is a my pinwheel about to bloom. Its a cutting from a huge pinwheel I had in Long Beach I couldn't bring to the bay area. The original was a cutting from my mom's. My mom's is a cutting from her mom's plant left to her when she passed.

Update: I forgot I had posted about this pinwheel previously. I think I need to post more often.

Just a bean and cheese burrito

A comfort food of mine is a simple bean and cheese burrito. Tortilla, refried pinto beans and cheese, that's all. For some reason I've found in the bay area they add everything they can to the simple order. Carrots, onions, rice, salsa, sour cream, this liquidy guacamole sauce, or unrefried beans are all like "surprise we are a part of your meal."
