Welcome to the West Side

Sorry I haven't blogged lately. We finally moved and are all settled. FINALLY! I never want to move ever again but since we are still renting, it is envitable! I don't know why they even make 3rd floor apartments. My calves were killing me for the next few days afterwards! I am getting used to the dreaded West side. I NEVER thought I would live west of 7th East! Its not a terrible location and I don't have to deal with the downtown crowd, ie transients & clients!! I made an exception because our place was brand new and they had a fantastic move in special. And I love my large tub for bubble baths. I've taken Trax to work in the morning a couple of times, it certainly wasn't BART, that's for sure! But it wasn't terrible and it will save gas $. That's what I will be doing this winter because everyone knows how much I hate to drive in the snow!
Our dogs are certainly getting a work out as well, 3rd floor up & down, up & down to go potty! Even though we downsized, I couldn't give up our babies! They are actually doing okay with it and Baxter uses the potty pads (most of the time).
My Dad came out a few weeks ago to visit and help us get settled in. Seriously the coolest Dad ever. We went shopping and had dinner with our cousins. I cooked dinner and invited a few friends over to meet my Dad and see our new place. We played board games with my Dad after dinner, so much fun! Thank you Dad for everything! I wish we lived closer. If only we could afford to live in the Bay Area!
I discovered my new fav dessert, these fantastic Island Sorbets from Costco. They make me want to have a Hawaii themed party or a Luau minus the pig.
I am so excited that Fall is upon us. Love the change of seasons!
