In planning our upcoming trip to California in October, I realize that this will most likely be our last trip out there, since Mr. Snoots dislikes it so much. However, our Snooty Daughter is planning her move back to Texas within the next year, and I thought we should take one more trip out to the West Coast before she does so.This time, we're staying in Santa Monica, on the beach, rather than a hotel in downtown Los Angeles. Yes, it's costing more, but this will be our 32nd wedding anniversary AND my 57th birthday celebration. Gawd, I'm getting old. So, dues must be paid and Mr. Snooty has complied with and consented to, my planning of this trip. Like he had a choice.
On this trip, we are going to go to Disneyland in Anaheim,
for one day. I've wanted to go there my whole life, so we're going. We're also going to drag our dear SD with us, since I know she'll love it too. Besides, I need someone to ride the roller coasters with.We've been trying to decide on which restaurants to make reservations, but it's been difficult to make any firm decisions. There are so many excellent restaurants in Santa Monica that it would blow your mind. I don't even know where to begin.
I told Mr. Snoots that I wanted to rent bikes one day and ride up & down the boardwalk at Venice Beach and he looked at me as if I'd lost my mind. Okay, that's out. Fine. What about renting roller blades? Nope. That got an even worse scowl from the Mister. Hmmmm... Apparently, all Mr. Snooty wants to do is lie around the hotel room and plan where we're going to eat. Whatever! I want to get out and live a little! So, I guess I'll be doing all that living alone or with SD, when she can.
Does anyone have any grand suggestions?
On another note, my computer has been giving me all kinds of Hell. Our computer Guru says that the mother board is about to bite the dust and I'll probably lose all of my pictures. What?!?! All three million of them?!?! Crap... He's had the parts on order to build us a new computer system, but there's no telling how long that will take. So, I guess what I'm trying to say is, that I might not be able to post to my blog or anything else at some point. This is not good for my online antiques & collectibles shop. But, what can I do? Mr. Snoots needs certain things on the computer for his business, so I'm stuck with whatever comes my way at this point.
On yet ANOTHER note, our son recently made the Dean's List at St. Edward's University and we're SO PROUD of him for all the hard work he has put into his
studies. He says he'll be making the list for next semester as well. Way to go Mr. T! Life is GOOD!
