Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

This week I am in Myrtle Beach, SC. I'm squeezing some pleasure out of another work trip (squeezing pleasure out, sounds kind of gross… sorry).

A Washington-ing we shall go! Last weekend Ben and I headed up to Washington to visit Peanut… among other things...

I've been spending quite a bit of time exploring my neighborhood and downtown Olympia lately. I have my set jogging route, and rarely do I venture from three(ish) tried and true paths. I like the friendly little mileposts that I've come to enjoy along they way. I tend to think of it as "nice graffiti."

A week-ending we shall go...

The weather just turned here in, recently not so sunny California, and I am taking advantage to the full effect. How you may ask? Well to start off with I'm sitting inside and enjoying my light drenched living room and indoor foliage.

I have been spending a lot of time walking with two little (not actually little) dogs, around our little neighborhood. Olive is holding on to our treasures, I am in love with pink jasmine and really want to plant a ton everywhere.

I have also been walking around outside of my Burbank neighborhood. For instance I drove down to Newport Beach and met up with Ben's sister Sammy. I had to walk much farther then I anticipated because there wasn't a lot of free parking, but at least I found a spot that allowed for me to have a be achy stroll along the boardwalk to get to my final destination.

Destination being Balboa Park (I think there are way too many places named Balboa this or that). This ferris wheel went way to fast to be safe. We did not go on this.

Luckily I wasn't gone too long, because there was someone waiting for me at home.

Birthday sticker collage!

Happy birthday Monika!

Peanut & Purls and BATTLESTAR GALACTICA SOCKS!

They're done! The godforsaken socks have been knit!!! All of my Christmas 2013 obligations are fulfilled!!!!!

Ahoy, La Jolla!

So I am lucky enough to work for company with a location in La Jolla California, where they want to host training. Luckier still, that the hotel that they typically put everyone up at is booked and I get to stay at the Grand Colonial. What a lucky girl I am, I ended up with a room with a view.

Olympia isn't always the most happening place...but if you seek it out, a Friday night can prove rather fun (as evidenced by Saturday morning's wrist)...
