Aspen Colorado

What a beautiful place! Of all the places I have been in this world, and there are a lot, Aspen is up there with the best of them. The weather here is fabulous 22 hours out of the 24......the rain tends to come in about 2pm every day for 2 hours. Angela and I are playing the MOtherlode event together.....so far we are 2-0......woohooo! We have a tough match next, so we are surfing the net to get focused yet relaxed! I wish I had a good pic of Aspen now, but I will put it on soon! Have a lovely DAY:)

The Little Things

I have found a great bathing suit for playing volleyball in. After watching Pri and Angela in Long Beach and San Diego, I went after the company that made the suits they play in. Just wanted to put it out there! This company is Zsu Zsi, check it out! I got a couple suits to try out and so far so good! It really is the little things that make me happy!

Life in the Fast Lane


So it really feels like everyday is a whirlwind. I woke today, headed to Coffee bean, made final practice plans, then zoomed to Carlsbad HS. The JV team practiced for 3 hours, then I headed straight to SFC to meet with Maria about club try-outs....ALREADY!!!!!! From there, quick lunch, 2 lessons..........then a night out with the girls. Movie and dinner. Just got home. I left the house at 11:30am and arrived home at 8:27pm. ON the go......I am heading off to Aspen this weekend for the Motherlode, and hopefully to see mi familia. We will see!

Love it!


So today was a good day. Many things that could have been done, but very few that got done. I woke, played volleyball at Ponto beach with Veronica, Colleen, and Kelly..... lot of fun! Drove to SFC to interview the new middle school coach, then straight to Oceanside to check out Zsu Zsi swimsuits. These swimsuits are awesome. They are cute and designed for athletic women. Stephanie, the owner, gave me a couple to wear for the Motherlode next weekend, so we will see how it works out. BUt, I gotta say I am very excited for a great swimsuit sponsor. After that, home....relax for a few minutes then off to the movies with Drew....we saw Tropic Thunder......Hilarious! Now I am off to bed! But ahead in the next week......more Carlsbad volleyball, meeting with Maria to get SBVC rolling for the next season and many, many lessons. Life is good, slower than normal for me, but sometimes I need this! tata

What's going on Today, August 21



In case you are still checking out my blog, sorry for not keeping it up lately. Needless to say I have been busy. I am always busy, except for this very moment. So, here is what life has been for the past month, since my return from Marseille, and visit with family. I started coaching for Carlsbad high school, I had some good times with friends for 2 weeks, and I have been debating getting back into the gym to train for next season. Coaching is consuming most of my time right now, and I am having fun! We started with try-outs last Wednesday, had our teams set by Friday and have been running double days since. In between these practices I have been doing some lessons, trying to get girls ready for Fall season. Good times with my friends included being tour guide of San Diego, which I am not great at, a trip to Vegas, a trip to Huntington Beach (which is like a second home), and trips to the airport. I have also managed to move back into my condo, very happy about that. Well, that's my life! Kinda tired now, but its a good thing!

A Day in my Life


So, after an eventful evening at the movies with the family....meaning I got carded to see the movie, and my 29 year old sister was not let in without her ID....I woke this morning on the air mattress in my condo. As I woke, Alicia, my sister in law, was watching tv. Soon, we were off to meet the rest of the gang for breaky at Swami's. Very Good! After that, off to the paint store (success), then to the bed store (success), then home! Once home, I had about 30 minutes to stop and breathe before heading off to yoga. Yoga was great today, and I was beat! After yoga, straight to the sista's house to load up the vehicles and get people to the airport. Upon return from the airport, stopped by Krystal's house for about an hour before heading home. Its 8:42pm, I am tired, and am eating leftover pizza before bed. The most exciting part is that when I wake, I am heading to LB to watch Lewis dominate at the AVP!
Good NIght!

Love Volleyball Camp

So, since I have been in the USA, I deplaned, drove home, ate, slept, woke and started coaching. We finish every day at 4pm....so 830am-4pm, I am coaching kids! After 4 pm, I have a million things on my brain. Unpacking has still not happened, laundry....nope,finding a decently comfortable bed....kind of, and deciding where I am going to live, think I got that taken care of. However, dinner with the family is mandatory every evening and usually an evening activity. So, basically, I have not really had any time for me. But, I cannot complain....I have my beautiful nephews here, Alicia and Bil also. It has been fun, tiring, but fun! Today is the last day of camp, and I think it is has been a good one this year.
