no power

*Last week was a bummer of a week on the electricity front. Our power went out twice, once due to high winds and once due to a car accident. We lost a bunch of food in the fridge the first time. The second time I was able to take a load over to a friend's house. We tried to make it fun at night and had a little pizza picnic, however the novelty quickly wore off and we were ready for power! :)

*Luckily Halloween was sandwiched between our two power-less nights so all the fun decorations people had out were lit for trick-or-treating. 

*This last weekend I spent the night in Santa Barbara with some friends from college. The weather was beautiful and it was fun catching up on one another's lives.

On Sunday morning, the time change had me wide awake at 4:15am. Ugh. I stayed in bed for a while but then decided to go for a walk while I waited for the girls to wake. It turned out to be such a highlight as I found a cute little neighborhood to explore and my whole walk had ocean views. :)
