A day on the Census

So today I went with T to work, she has to collate addresses for the census. She has a hand held thingy device which she inputs the address into then she has to map the address on it, as close to the front door as possible, which is difficult when you are working in the Beverly Hills of the area and all the properties are gated. So I drove and she jumped in and out of the car, lol, we got the job done in 1 half hours instead of 3, it's great having a chauffeur when your doing a census, lol

So this house at the top of this hill I just fell in love with, do you think we could afford it on Manny's credit card?


What a cute mailbox!


Like I said gated Beverly Hills type properties.


I did get out or the car just the once to have my piccie taken in front of this glorious view. lol

I'M HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well folks it's finally arrived, for those who didn't know I'm on hols in California again with my bestest buddy ever TLC. Manny has been laid of work for a short while we hope so he has gone off to his Sisters in Houston, Texas and I'm here in Murrieta.

As you can see from the picture, I fed my addiction pretty much straight away and we went to Brighton, I think we are going to buy one of the picture frames in the background to put one or our cute pictures of the two of us together in, lol. T and I are like peas in a pod, it is so weird, we are completely different in a lot of ways but so close and I know will always will be, I would go to the end of the earth to help her out if she was ever in trouble and I know she would for me. She has a new beau, he is very sweet and attentive, we all need a little attention from time to time don't we gals!

So when I landed in San Diego of course we went and ate first at Denny's, you can't beat a brekkie any time of the day, then we stayed up talking till 2.30am, wow was I tired still am really, but had a good 8 hours last night.
Then we went to the mall, not quite as good as Victoria Gardens in Rancho but has the same shops so I'll be happy and the good thing is I can't walk there so perhaps I may behave myself a little better this time, especially with the exchange rate being as bad is it is. We met T's guy in Red Robin and I had the chicken burger and onion rings, wow their food is to die for, and here's me supposed to be getting healthy, lol. Then we went to Brighton and spent a little money, you know what my little is like, so you can imagine, lol.

Then we went to visit Kimi and Chris and the kids, CJ and Maya are such lovely kids and so well behaved, Kimi and Chris are doing a great job with them, 2 beautiful children to be proud of. They have a new dog called Lena, she is a cross between something and a Lab, you know my weakness for dogs and especially Labs, I do miss my girls. She is such a lovely girl I didn't want to leave her, I could bring her home with me.

So T cooked dinner last night, Kimi's recipe for meatloaf, it was absolutely gorgeous, I am going to make cauliflower cheese for them all, they have never had it and it is my favourite.

So it's 7.30am and T has only 3 hours work today she thinks, which is a shame in one way but in another good because then I get to spend more time with her, I miss her so much when we are apart. I feel so relaxed over here and so at home, I am convinced that whoever gave birth to me was American so I am half, lol. Roll on the day we can move here, I just know that it will be the best thing ever for Manny and me.

So folks keep an eye on my old Bloggy, it'll be getting loads of pictures I'm sure, especially when we are in Vegas, can't tell you how excited we are about that.

Catch you all soon. xxx
