Busy mondays

Such a busy morning at work. At first I drive up to the building scared as shit. There is a truck parked up front with a broken window then I notice the lights are on inside. To make matters worse I can't unlock the door. To my relief, it was our repair guy inside. So as I'm opening the rest of the clinic up my husband and my youngest girl stay with me. Well until other co workers start showing up. Everything was smooth until a lady with 6 health certificate show up and they have some health issues and need vaccines. That was no problem until a dog fight case shows up. I am exhausted. Ready to be home. This afternoon 6 beautiful husky mix puppies came in and totally brightened my Monday!

Mermaid watch

Today was a success. I didn't get as much as I would because little girl was grumpy and tired. But I just went through my pictures and I got a lot of good ones to play around with. The weather was yet again amazing. Barely crowded! The water was warmer and all I wanted to do was let my inner mermaid out!

Beachy

Yesterday I went to one of my favorite beaches. Zuma beach. I haven't been here in years. I fell in love with it all over again. The weather was perfect it was not too crowded for being a Saturday. What I love most about this beach is if you park in the right place the beach is right there. You don't have to travel far at all. The waves are pretty legite. You can catch an amazing ride on your boogie board. However, this trip I wasn't able to fully enjoy it due to having a 2 yr old with me. She had no interest in the ice cold water but we still had tons of fun. Today I am headed off in a few hours to head to another one of my favorite beaches, Ventura, to do a photo shoot on a little mermaid.

Summer

I
am
Exhausted. This summer has been hell. Yes hell. Honey Bee I know you do better with sunshine but me? I am better at being in gloomy weather that consists of a hint of grey and moisture in the air.  This summer has also been a challenging one. I use to pray for patience not thinking about God actually challenging me to build said patience.  Let me start from the beginning.
      I have become ungrateful little punk. I could no longer ride my bike due to unlivable heat...ok ok im over exaggerating but if you knew me you would understand. I was doing so good eating less and losing weight. So I had to go back to being driven to and from work. Earlier in the year we were told our air conditioner in our Mazda had to be fixed and it was going to cost about 1K. Great. Just what I needed to hear. My husband saw how miserable I was. When i'm hot i'm a crabby patty. So he went to an auto parts store and bought some magical thing that I don't know what it was called. But its only cost us 20 bucks and boom A/C is working! Things are looking up right? 5 minutes of happiness gone. As we are driving home from a family reunion the Mazda blew a rod..............................................................face palm.  We had to scrap the car. Toms brothers girlfriend had a nice little Honda and sold it to us for 3k and let us make payments each month. A week later a screw comes loose and falls into the engine. God? are you their? I need you. I am drowning. It was hard borrowing cars and finding rides. My parents had developed some sort of attitude towards us. Making me feel as tho I have over stayed my welcome. Then one day my dad says he would like to help us find a car. Excited! we went to test drive cars and vans and suv's. I fell for the first van we drove. Unfortunately it did not drive smoothly. The next few had no comparison. Finally went to Honda. The guy was super aggressive and over confident.  We wanted prices first but he said lets talk about that later lets fall in love with the car first. Hey Zach, bed idea. We first told him our price range and he made it sound like it was possible. So I fell....hard for a 2014 Hyundai empala. Dark grey, interior black leather, tinted windows and a moon roof....so we brought my dad over the next day. He had no interest in seeing the car he wanted numbers. Being the hard ass he is Zach became a bit nervous. Nothing he did was impressive, I promise. My dad told him what we can do but they couldn't give me what we wanted. They kept asking well what do you want. Really? we told you. You even wrote it down! and your still asking??? We had to walk away. Next day we my dad decided he didn't want to really help us anymore. Life was looking hopeless. No one seemed to understand this was stressful. I fell in and out of depression.  So just to humor me my husband took me to another car place. Boom in love with a Toyota Prius 2013 hybrid. But I gave myself a pep talk not to get my hopes up. I had to go back to work anyways. To make this already long story shorter. We got the car. By ourselves. with payments we could afford. 
   Toms brother finally did it. He took the plunge after 5 tries with this woman. They finally tied the knot. I am so happy for them. Even tho rumors were saying she never wanted to meet me we met. So far shes been pleasant. We even went to the beach with them to play pokemon go. As August finally is getting on its way life seems a bit better. My weekends are busy and my car has A/C. I am as happy as this summer will let me

Tired

I am tired, drained, fustrated.
My family can be over sensitive.
My sister for starters. Oh boy where should I start. She has issuses!
She blames my mom for everything wrong with her and her life and talks bad about her as soon as the chance is given!
Lazy, sleeps all day and is obsessed with a online game called second life.

My mom, i love her to the moon and back. But I know im not her favorite and I will never be. Not only do I know but sometimes she makes it known. I do everything she asks no problem. But the one time i got upset about watching my uncle once! she got all hurt about it and became a drama queen. I apologised right away but she drug it out.

Last night we had to put my kittty down (the one who lived at the office) was so sad. Yes i sobbed tremendously! He started having tremors and had unexpected aggression , drooling and panting. His blood work was perfect. I wish I knew what was wrong so we could have helped him. I miss him so much already.

On a brighter note! Tomorrow is a semi family reunion! My cousin is having a baby shower and I am getting my lazy ass up and going!!!
