Living life Cali-Style
9/11… I will most certainly never forget. We flew home from my brother-in-law’s wedding in Baltimore, MD on September 10th. Just one day before terrorists boarded US planes and crashed them into our precious landmarks. My daughter was just 4 months old. My husband had to be at work early, so he was up getting […]
MoreI’m finally getting around to posting a bit more about my trip to Santa Barbara. As I mentioned in a previous post, State Street has been closed to all vehicular traffic. It’s so nice because pedestrians can now walk through the middle of town to shop, enjoy a nice stroll, and check out all of […]
MoreBecause I have a tension for detail! Bah-duh-duh! Ha, ha… Okay, so it’s cheesy, but at least had to make a quick joke about it! I feel so bad for falling off the map! I enjoy so much conversing with my friends here on Instagram. I feel a great sense of community here. But, once […]
MoreGrowing up, I always wanted to be Wonder Woman! I had the Underoo’s, and I was her for Halloween one year too. (As was my Dad! Lol!) I used to spin around and around until I was dizzy, hoping to have her superpowers when I stopped! Little did I know that one day, I would […]
MoreWe unfortunately started too late to make it to the last winery, Cavaletti Vineyards, and I’m super bummed about that! But I promise to make it back soon and check it out! I’m so blessed to have had such and fun and productive trip. I was able to help out my Mother in Law with […]
More“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.” ~ Martin Luther King, Jr. Yes!! This quote is so perfect for me. I always say, “if I had more money”, I could do so much more to help! But I need (we all need), to remember that we don’t […]
MoreSo… I was on Instagram and saw this ad for TextsFromSanta.com! My son is almost 11 and I figure my time with him believing in Santa is limited, so I wanted to check this out. And, I’m so gad I did! For just $15 (I believe) I signed him up to get daily texts from […]
MoreEverything Happens for a Reason. 🅔 🅗 🅕 🅐 🅡. Sounds cliché, right? And it’s usually the very last thing someone going through something unpleasant wants to hear. BUT, I believe in my very heart of hearts that it’s true. I honestly do. I’m a glass is half-full, kind of girl. I want to believe […]
MoreOn December 8th, 2008, our whole world changed! Our son, Connor Kenneth Charles Zeiss, who was supposed to be born in March, decided to make an extra early appearance. He was born at just 27 weeks. He weighed just 1 lb. 9 oz. He had several complications along the way, including two strokes, which were […]
MoreToday, November 13, 2019 is World Kindness Day! This is one of my favorite days of the year, because I’m a big fan of being kind, teaching others to be kind and kindness in general. I mean who isn’t? Well, unfortunately, not everyone is. It’s just the world we live in these days. But the […]
