Asking- It has a Process

http://thoughtfulpop.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/curious-george.jpgIn my Journey of loving living life (try saying that 10xs), I’ve learned that everything has a process. I am still learning that everything has a process at age 28, oh wait, 29 now…  Can you believe this?   I would think by know that the phrase/thought “there is a process to asking for things” is ingrained into my thought process… but no… I still forget.

Like yesterday, I become excited about an idea I had. After speaking to someone about my idea, I was quickly informed that there was a method to asking to get my idea accomplished. Kudos to that someone.  I re-learned that there is a method to asking. Asking for things… Simple right? Which brings me back to basics.

I began to think of rules I learned in grammar school. I.E:  How to do ask to go to the bathroom?

2. Wait until you are spoken to
3. Have to say “May I PLEASE”
4. Get the Big PINK key
5. Get a hall pass…
6. Continue to follow directions.

So why is it that at age 29, I forgot how to ask for something?

Let me know what you think…(leave a comment)

Friendships

 http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2009/news/090504/beatrice_arthur2.jpg 

There a lot to say… a lot to say! about friends.  The end.

Just messing.

This word is everlasting. Actually, this word is very transitional. I say this as I sit at my friends home laughing because we are just being us.

As random as this will sound, this is what friends are too me. They are people you can be you with… being silly, moody, funny, exaggerated,  hyper, quiet, sarcastic, chatty, anything you want to make it.

The people you can go to when feeling low and they somehow, with one word, make everything ok. When you are happy and you are able to rejoice with them because they are your cheerleaders as you are for them. Pure Joy.

And yes we were sober while I write this:
 
Friend B: Straightening her hair getting ready to cut it. Saying “my hair is transitional”

Friend A: Lays on her couch and asked to be a “publicity hog desperately wanting to place her name onto my blog.” She wants me to interview her.. and to place her products onto my blog. 

Friend B: Making all sorts of noises in the restroom and all of us screaming across from each other.

Me: Why didn’t you make me some  coffee today?

Friend A: I will make you my famous coffee once I get up to cute nap.

Me: says Blah

Friend A: says Blaaahhhh

Friend B: says count Dracula bleuhhh.

(quiet)

Friend A: You left the tea bags in the sink Friend B!

Friend B: I did what!?

Me: Laughs…Ya’ll favorite color is clear!

Friend B: Imma Break yo’ face!

Friend A: Laughs… Le ghetto.

Me: Oooh Child!

I wish I had a tape recorder.

Friendships. Need I say more?…


What does the word “friend” mean to you?

Paula’s Pancake House- Solvang

Have you ever had a Dutch Pancake?

I recently was taken by my mom to Solvang. A city about 2.5 hours away from Los Angeles, CA. A Dutch town, small and super nice during the holidays.  And we had breakfast in this little home cooking place, I truly enjoyed.

There is shopping, and so many little knacks to buy. It is cold at this time of year… but you can only imagine how this place looked during the spring.

We were walking in the cold and I think we were too brave. LOL.

The entry to this city actually reminds me of a City in Guatemala in called San Lucas.. one of my favorite spots. It is the most amazing entry to a city. Big HUGE green Christmas Trees and behind then super awesome long vineyards!

And did I mention, the ride going up from Los Angeles. It is Superb!
It is long, so you have to take a break like every 30 mins… But you can walk and stretch… and that is why there is shopping right? LOL

Here are some of our trip pics.
