Finally Friday...

and with that I yawn...It was pretty hard to get up this morning. My bed was nice and warm. Fievel kitty laying by my side, Bella between Gerry and i, and the house was dark. I could have slept for another hour. Well, thank the deity's it's friday.

Hopefully we'll go to the movies tonight. Gerry and I really want to see Chasing Mavericks. We live close to where Maverick's happens annually (sometimes it doesn't at all) and any movie about these big local waves we want to see!  If you don't know about Jay Moriarty, click on this link and it will take you to wikipedia.

Giants won again. Last nights game was a bit boring to me, it just came down to who was going to score. I have a strong feeling the Giants are going to sweep Detroit. 

Bella and the clicker. It's working!!! the second i even take out the clicker she's like "hey mom, it's ok I'm focused on you now." I still need to keep doing the doggy rounds for myself and her sake, but it's awesome. She HATED the clicker. The poor dog was scared of it when I first tried it a couple of years ago. It took her a couple of days to get her tail back to normal and not hide it between her legs. I guess now it's a useful tool! I have emailed the trainer guy to ask if we can get more time, to be honest I haven't found many dogs in cars. I think ONE dog in 5 weeks isn't going to teach her barking at them  is a no no.

Ruh Roh...fee waived Adoptions at the Marin Humane Society this weekend....i'm thinking kitten...lol. Oh. mah. god...there are kittens....I think i'm ready for number 3. meow. holy cuteness look at this face:
I would name you Pumpernickel.
OR
I'd name you Gabor...you look like you're pretty Regal and you'd have a chihuahua as a pet. 
Mayo. I don't know why...but i think the name Mayo fits.  
too much cuteness...AHHHH overload!!!



Cool sites and shite..
30 dog Halloween Costumes-Thank you Barkbox for sending me this link. I feel so bad because I don't have a costume for Bella! We have last year's, but the wig won't stay on. We may just have to try again and see if she'll walk around with her costume this weekend.
PLUKKA- look how cute! 470 bucks....wow...maybe they'll have a sale???
Hautelook-Ok several items here. Check out Monique Leshman for cool jewelry for the ladies. There are even some cool stretchy rings! Sunglass Shop for men and women! Check out Renee C for some real sale priced items! Very affordable!
Ideeli-French Connection at a very very good price and such cute coats, purses, dresses etc...Ray-ban sale, Miss Sixty i think this coat is my favorite! I WANT IT, but i can't....I'm really sad that Ideeli is selling items with fur in them. I wish they wouldn't....please don't buy fur.
Rue La La-Click on the link and it will take you to Time to get Cozy! lots of items that remind me of fall and winter!
Refinery29- OK so they have this article with slide show about 21 pieces/trends the editors would never wear. Some make sense, others make me want to slap them silly...A white T is classic, lipstick is a must, high low skirts and dresses are actually cute, yes those stupid pants with the very low crotch I don't get either. There's my input. The important thing for each person to remember when trying on different fads is not what someone says in a magazine or what your peers are wearing is what LOOKS GOOD ON YOU! If you smile and find yourself giddy in a dress, a pair of jeans, a top or whatever...than guess what it's a keeper.
Joss and Main-i'm jumping up and down. you must click this link. it's like man cave/fun room stuff. billiards, dart boards and even those cool lights at billiard halls! Also other games...they HAD a Beatles Monopoly game but it sold out. BOO...this is like a must click...so do it!!!
NWF Action Fund Donate-Donate to save the Polar Bear. The caps are melting. and i wonder what happened to all of the money coca cola is supposed to donate every year? hmm....Anyway, if you donate, the monies will be matched dollar for dollar.
Smashbox-Studio pop lips, a 5 gloss set,  26 bucks and free shipping!

Pawsitive Dog Story
Today's story comes from the ASPCA. The 2012 Humane Award winners have been announced. Go meet them, three VIB-very important beings...Great Stories, uplifting animals and a 10 year old who stands up for what he believes in...AHHH inspiring!

have a wonderful weekend everyone. Many hugs!

Thank you Friday for getting here so quickly..

I wrote yesterday that my office mates and I pooled in our monies to buy lottery tickets for the mega millions.  Many of them are joking around that they won't be here on Monday, while I keep saying I will. At 35, I can still work and enjoy my life as a millionaire. Since I'm not looney about money-I like to buy nice things, but as you can see I hate paying full price-I can't imagine buying a yacht or something I don't need just because I have a lot of money. Ok I may buy some expensive diamond jewelry, but the most I would buy is a house and set my mother and grandmother up for life.  If I had a million dollars, I'd buy a house, set it up so that I'd have enough for 20-30 years in property tax payments and any other taxes I may have to pay. I'd still work, because i can't really think of anything else to do. Sure I'd travel, but my back and sitting for long periods of time don't mesh. Maybe i'd get a back guru to heal me...lol. All of these are hopes of course, I think I'd stay the same as I am. But you never know.....haha. OH yeah, and I would definitely buy an island and make it a sanctuary for animals and myself. :)
  • Ok...I found a lovely thing for my mother for her birthday. I wish i knew her favorite color. 
  • My new goal this year is to find a masseuse, acupuncturist and chiropractor in ONE. I know they exist, but now i have to look for one. and yes, please be affordable. 
  • Have I told you about purewow.come daily emails? some of them are eh...but a lot of the time they're pretty darn useful. Check out Postable , thanks to them I can now put EVERYONE's snail mail in one place and not worry about it. Usually Christmas comes around and i'm digging for past years envelopes (yes I keep them so that I can remember who sent my christmas cards).  Now i'm just going to put everything into this handy dandy service (which is free) and be happy. :) yay me. 
  • Ideeli has some beautiful shoes on sale-Bacio 61. Some pretty dresses by Cece NY. 
  •  Off the Grid is back at Fort Mason!!! For my out of the area friends, think Food Truck heaven. Starts tonight! I think I know where i'm going for dinner! :)
  • I WANT TO BE IN A FLASH MOB!! and here's my chance! Hopefully i can get Gerry into this, should be funny. And it's tonight...at 6:30 I guess i can learn the dance in my chair.... Go here if you want in on the action
  • Well that works out, if you think about it...be in a flashmob and go get food after. :) sounds like a perfect evening.
  • Ever wonder how you can help the Humane Society? I know we all see that commercial and we want to die because those eyes...and the song...and the ok, I just can't relive it...But check it out. For 20 bucks you can get a holiday card set-birthday cards, thinking of you cards, thank you cards etc.stationary sheets, stickers, calendars and all in a pretty box for 20 dollars!!! Here's a link to that I bought a box of cards a couple of years ago from Costco and it has definitely saved my butt. I'm thinking about making this purchase today, but i may wait until next week. 
  • I have hopes and dreams of doing yoga, alas my stupid neck has decided to hurt again. I had a massage last night and that helped with releasing some tension...i just wish poof the stiffness would disappear. I really want to try the dailey method...maybe one day i'll be able to stretch without feeling like this. :(
alright this silly girl has to go. Hopefully i'll have tales to tell about winning the lottery, watching or dancing in a flashmob and the deliciousness of OFF the grid food trucks. Have a great weekend. lots o love.
