About Me

My photo
I'm originally from smoggy L.A. but now live in sunny Honolulu. I've been living here for 20 years, and it seems like it'll be another 19. I have an awesome daughter). I also work with psychiatric kids(yikes!)I'm not complicated although one would think so and am pretty easy to get along with (unless you mess with my kid). I hate phoniness - so don't pretend to like me and then talk smack behind my back. Or pretend to like someone else, but talk smack to me about them. My family's my core and my close friends are my ice cream toppings. Everyone should have a little bit of dimsum in their lifetime. I also refer to myself as an "organic temple". Be green. Be organic. Be nice.

SOCCER MOMMY



No.
I don't drive a mini van. Nor, do I ever have hopes or aspirations to do so. I never thought i would be a soccer mom, but here I am. A soccer mom.



I'd much rather her join girl scouts. But they never follow-through. So, we have soccer. She falls. She cries. She runs. She makes friends. Maybe....I'll get that mini-van.

At A Wedding



Went to a co-workers wedding. As you can see, Ashly was not feeling the love at the end. Tired, no one to play with = one bored, little girl.

Where Has The Time Gone?


Wow.
I just noticed my last post was December of 2009! 6 months ago! Seems like only yesterday I blogged.

Well, Ashly finished Kindergarten and will be going to 1st grade at the end of July. She knows her alphabet and can read,...some. She is way ahead of me when I went into the 1st grade. I didn't even know what an alphabet was. That's what happens when you don't go to Kindergarten and/or have parents that get you ready for the 1st grade. So needless, to say, as difficult as she might get, she's still my precious one. She's lost 6 teeth so far, and the 2 front ones missing right now make her look like a crack-kid. It's too funny. Unfortunately, at the age of 6 going on 15, shows like Hannah Montana have introduced her to the world of boys. Oh boy.

MERRY XMAS!!!






I hope we all had an awesome Xmas!!! This year has been a year of extreme changes for me, (as well as others i hold dear to me) and as I close out the year, I am grateful to everyone who has been and continues to be in my life. A year of change to say the least. There's a saying-that for every death, there is a birth. I believe in that and not just in the literal sense. It could mean the death of anything, not just a person. But out of it, forges a new life. I welcome 2010 with a new breath of life, and I hope you all do too.

Vow to make time for yourself. You need it.
Try at least one thing new.
You will be so happy you did. I did and still do. (although I wished i started earlier with this philosophy)
Go with your gut instincts. You know you best.

09 Halloween



Well, obviously Ashly is SuperGirl! We went around the block like old school. There wasn't too much going on, but it gave Ashly an idea about Trick-Or-Treating the old fashioned way. We later went to Ward Warehouse where the stores were participating in giving out candy.

HPR




Went to see the Honolulu Pacific Roller Derby girls yesterday. I had NO idea that HI had a roller derby league. They're fairly new, 2 years, but it's soo exciting. Takes me back to my young'n years of watching the Thunderbirds in Los Angeles. Anywhoo, they played San Diego and unfortunately lost. There was a few raindrops that made it a little slippery, but it was still exciting. Wish you all could see them.



Kids Day at the Capitol happened today. And sadly, we didn't get on tv. No media around when we were there. That's always my goal. Just a hot, humid day filled with a million kids.
