This is hard

I didn’t realize that keeping up with a blog would be difficult. The past couple weeks have been hectic. They have eaten up my weekends!!!! My sacred long weekends! Two weekends ago, I went down to Rosarito for a wedding. That was a major weekend sucker, because I didn’t even return to work until Tuesday afternoon. I was totally off schedule. I pride myself on being organized and that week, I was on a different planet!

Last weekend, I spent it with Hugh’s family. Although I did manage of course to visit my own family. OD returned from Europe and told us all about his wild trip (it’s wild because he’s wild, I don’t think normal people experience europe as he does, or maybe it’s because he’s still really young) He snuck into some schwanky hotel in barcelona, swam in their pool, lounged in their bathrobes (which he later took) and hung out in their jacuzzi…not once, TWICE!!!!! He’s hilarious really! I was so glad to be around him and go out to El Taurino, one of our favorites. My parents and I have been going there since the early 80′s! It’s a LA staple! And also, my sweet grandmother is in town, so we had some time to hang out and talk like a family!

Saturday, I spent the entire day with my lil sister, Nirel and OD. It was awesome. We drove around LA, ate Pinkberry and Lahmajune’s and peruvian food at Don Felix’s. What a day!!!! Then OD and I went over to Hugh’s parents house and that was a blast! OD talked and everyone was entertained!!!! Then OD, Hugh, Celia (H’s sister in law) and I went over to visit my grandmother and mum. It was awesome. Looking through old pics, talking about el salvador and whatnot…it was wonderful! I had a good weekend and I was looking forward to returning to my last week of work at the City College. And guess what, today was the final exam and I already graded (all but 1) exam….WHOO HOOO!!!!! Not WHOO HOO at the time because the only reason I was able to grade was because one of my students took FOREVER…but hey, i can already turn in grades by tomorrow. That’s when the vacation BEGINS!!!!! Guess what I’ll do?!?!?

1. Turn grades in.

2. Clean my car, get gas, and vaccuum the interior.

3. clean my HOUSE…it’s an absolute mess!

4. hang out with my friends….eat, walk, shop….ooooh!!!!! i can’t wait until my first 3 are done!!!!!

Watch out for my phone call. I’m ready to socialize!!!!

PEACE!!!
