New Year, New Goals

Each year, usually near my birthday, I list a set of goals for myself to accomplish. Most of the time, those goals fall through. The new year has given me an opportunity to start anew, to share these goals to someone else, so that I may be encouraged. A few things on my list require months of planning and preparation, most are smaller short-term goals. All the same, accomplishing these things will make me happier, healthier, whole: three things of which I seem to be fussing a lot about lately. Here is that modified list..
1. Start saving for a house!
2. Cook at least once a week
3. Drink butter beer
4. Walk with Nacho to the park at least once a week
5. Bake a pie
6. Become CCRN certified
7. Find a new job
8. Travel out of the country
9. Run at least two half marathons
10. Clean out the storage
11. Volunteer
12. Bake and decorate a fancy cake
13. Hike Brand Park in 1hr 15 min
14. Do a big day hike
15. Sew a fancy pillow
16. Read more
17. Climb Santa Monica stairs with no problem
18. Camp
19. Bike
20. Smile more often

This will be fun! Wish me luck!

Spring Training

My little family went on vacation this past weekend. Nacho visited his friends at Petsmart and Niner and I went to our third Spring Training in Phoenix. Our first game on Saturday was against the Indians at Goodyear Ballpark. There was a lot of action near the end when the Indians caught up and tied the game. There was a Mister Softee soft serve truck and Niner tried a Guinness Blondie at the beer cart. That is a nice ballpark and we had a cute time. I even got Ethier's autograph on our Cactus League ball.    We had time for a nice hike and dinner after the game. Niner introduced me to Native American fry bread which was delicious. Sunday we started off with a nice brunch at Province downtown. The game was at the Dodgers' (and white Sox) Camelback Ranch. It was a hot, sunny day, but fun nevertheless. It was lovely to get away for the weekend and we did so much! Can't wait for baseball season to start! We got a mini season plan t...

Connecticut!

It's been awhile! We moved to Connecticut so Niner can go to grad school! We've been here for almost 2 months.  So far it's snowed on us four times. Those Nor-Easters were apparently bad this year and lasted until March and April which is not typical. Now it's just raining a lot. We went to one hike at a cool park just down the street from our tiny apartment. There are cherry blossoms everywhere and we found a cute park in New Haven where they were especially abundant. Of course my allergies are acting up. We went to Montreal last week for 3 days which I hope to post about soon. Nacho has been sick since our trip and his stay at the pet hotel. We're in the process of nursing him and his sensitive belly back to normal.  So far it's been different. Mostly we've been applying for jobs. Not much luck yet. As Niner put it, they don't know how awesome we are. The lady who approved us for our apartment at least thought we were great enough to give us a un...
