Another Lazy Day at the Beach

Ok....so I really wasnt so lazy.....I ran 2.5 miles at Pismo Beach today.  I am going to run in the community fun run on Saturday which is a 5k at the pier.  Anyone want to join me?  As I was running I came to the area on the beach where the small stream goes through to the ocean.  I was contemplating how to go across it and another runner (of course a very cute male) said " you just gotta go through it".  I thought about that,,sometimes we have things in our lives that we just cant figure out yet we've got to go through ..well I did and it was actually nice and cool and when I came back to cross it again I knew where my steps would take me.

Totally different train of thought...so I have my ugly flip flops on the patio so I can wear them when Im watering my plants.  I started noticing that one was missing...so I looked for it and couldnt find it..then about a week later I found it near the wild rose bushes..weird..then it was missing again..this time I found it under my rattan chair...so either I have a flip flop stalker or some strange little animal who thinks he really wants my shoe...then all of a sudden he stopped taking my shoe and I felt kinda sad like maybe a hawk got him...today my shoe was missing again and I felt better..haha..anyway this time the little guy left me a stick under the shoe? Maybe its a little love gift..heaven knows I could use one!

Oh and I do have a field mouse I see once in awhile running across my patio!  At first I didnt know what it was..I thought all mice were cute and white and small...this thing is huge it looks like a mole although I think they stay in holes....do you think he is the one taking my shoe? LOL

So there is a new room-mate now.  Tom the kid moved out to live with his girlfriend in SLO.  I nicknamed him "The Kid" when I was explaining him to everyone about where I am living and who I am living with.  He was alot of fun. His laugh was hilarious (he's from Boston does that matter?) he loved hockey-so I watched a few hockey games on TV with him..  Sometimes I wanted to kill him though like the times he came home late, stomped around the kitchen banging pots and pans to cook because I had fried the microwave...another story....and most annoying were his stinky climbing shoes. OMG!  I had to deal with that years ago when another boy took his shoes off after football practice..you know who that is;)...the new room-mate is a lawyer..need I say more? No really he is a fun person..laughs alot.. is very kind...I dont know what they think of me except that I dont care what my hair looks like in the morning-sticking out all crazy...and I also laugh alot...am easy going..and of course they think I dont work...well my daughter Rachelle thinks that also.  She says "Mom your like retired..."haha well that is the illusion when you love what you do.

About real estate: on Saturdays I usually run on the beach, get my herba mate tea at Steaming Bean, the cafe in Shell Beach, and do an open house.  This Saturday I picked the ugliest overpriced house our company has listed in Shell Beach. I actually had alot of people in to see it and made about 4 potential contacts. You never know....

Oh Im not going to class reunion because Rachelle will be here, yet Im going to see my family in August. Im taking the Amtrac because have you seen my truck? Ya it would take alot of money to get down there and back.  Its nice to just veg and read a book, snooze, go by the nude beach (did I say that?) and not sit in traffic.  Hope your summer is going just as you planned with a little unexpected excitement...that is always a good thing in life.
