Where's My Winter?!

Before I moved to San Francisco I got myself ready for some cold weather. Being a Southern California gal I am madly in love with the sun. I want to be in the sunshine 24/7. So when we packed up the moving truck I thought I was saying goodbye to the sun for good (or at least for most of the time) and I got my scarves, boots, and gloves ready for some foggy weather.

Well....

We have gotten more sun up here than overcast weather. Sometimes it feels like I am back in San Diego again. But I must admit. I am so annoyed! I bought so many cute winter clothes to wear I want to wear them now!! Bring on the cold weather!

I must say, though, that this it not too shabby...

I Broke My Promise

Okay- I started writing this on July 20th...

Well, I had a really good cleaning post written for today BUT it just didn't flow right. It needs some refining and some sparkle to it. Unfortunately I do not have the time to make it into the most fabulous post I wanted it to be (as the first post of my new blog style it needs to be perfect!) because I'm in the middle of homework, packing stuff for storage, packing stuff for tomorrow, applying for jobs and looking for houses.

Anyhow, I'm a little bummed but

NOW- So this is when my husband came in and completely distracted me. Needless to say, I didn't finish my post, nor, not until now, had the desire to.

Life has been so crazy lately and is finally settling down.

July 22 was my husbands last day in the Navy, that's right folks, mt husband is officially a FREE MAN!

After this with our new found freedom we went to go see family in St. George, Salt Lake, Washington, Idaho and lastly found our new home in San Francisco.

T started school at the Academy of Art (look at my boy so grown up!)

and is growing what we fondly refer to as the Freedom Beard

Overall life has been good and much different but we are enjoying it as it comes. I hope to get back into blogging soon. Now that I am writing again I have realized that I sure do miss it. 

HELP.... San Francisco Here We Come!

Okay! Here's the deal. TJ and I are moving to San Francisco next June! That is right, we will be EAS-ing and living a NORMAL life! And by normal I mean, terrifying and unpredictable civilian life. Anyhow, I need anyone's help. Anyone that knows San Francisco.

Where the heck is a good place to live?! We are looking into buying a house (and by house I mean condo/townhome... we cant afford a house, house, then again, are there any house, houses in San Francisco?). I found a few homes we liked (and could afford) in the Bayview-Hunters point area but apparently there is a high crime/ murder rate there! T accused me of trying to move us into the ghetto but trust me, that is the last thing I want to do!

We are also looking outside the city but not too far from it because T's school is smack in the middle of San Francisco. Being from Orange County I am kind of picky about where we live. I want to live somewhere safe and desirable. Sooooo, any suggestions? We are going to visit over Labor Day Weekend but we need a place to begin!

P.S Our day today was exactly like this....

And it was perfect...
