Tomorrow

I don't even want to get too into this. I start my new job full time tomorrow and I am not exactly excited about it. I never minded getting up to go see the twins. I don't even want to talk about them. I have had a month off. I just want to like my new job like how I liked(loved) my old one. I also got to take care of my nephew every other Friday and on the Fridays out here that I know I would be with him totally bum me out. I wish I wanted a child cause I would be a good stay at home Mom!!!!! That's not even where this post was supposed to go. Well it is bedtime soon seeing that I have to be UP FOR WORK! haha! 10 1/2 hours......the countdown is on.....

Seagull poop

They, whoever they are, says when a bird shits on you it is goodluck. Does it matter if it's a seagull? I have been shit on by one before, years ago. It landed on my lip. I thought it was just someone running by me and their wet bathing suit had splashed on me. NOPE. It was shit. On my lip. Did I say that yet?? My friend almost peeded herself when she looked at me and realized what I was telling her and I was very upset. Anyways, that's another story. The seagulls, plural I am assuming cause I got shit on 7 times, plus a splat on my bag and a few on the towel. I sat up and looked at it all. Thought "What am I gonna do??" Then the smell hit me. I almost vomited!!! Duh!! Go in the water! No matter how cold it is!!! Get all that trash and shit off my body!!! They eat trash and gross leftovers from gross people. HA! And from not gross people also but the visual I had in my mind was gross people. Not like it matters at all! The water was actually not that bad. YAY! I cleansed myself from seagull shit and went back to my towel(yes there was some poop drying up on it but I had just got there! I was not leaving yet!) Nothing too exciting happened after that. I was pissed I didn't take a picture.

Change

I am the type of person that does not deal well with change, and I have gone through A LOT of it the last month. I must say that I think I have been doing a pretty good job dealing with it all!! I started my new job today caring for a 2 month old and an almost 2 yr old. It makes me miss the twins so much! Sometimes I think, I just want to be with them! But I can't be so I have to get over it. That's what sucks about what I do. Anyways the family is super nice and laid back, exactly what I need. I know it will take time for us to all get use to eachother, I just want to be at that point already! I am happy and thankful that I found something to pay for my not new life, I guess I would say my different life out here.

Scenery

Body surfers

Hurley surf contest

The home of the people that started Airwalk

Uuumm HUGE

Wetsuit Tony

Of course I have been stressed out lately while searching for a job but I am trying to enjoy the beauty of my new surroundings. For example, the other day I went to Old Navy. As I walked out of the store I stopped and looked around. Palm trees, mountains and the sun shining off me and making me feel good. I thought about how when I step out of the Old Navy in Burlington. Certainly nothing like this. I need to relax and enjoy where I am and what I am doing. Easier said than done but it can be done. The beach is beautiful and peaceful. The ones we have been to kinda remind me of east coast beaches. Then I look behind me and see huge houses and those palm trees again and I think not so much! I also got to see Tony surf! I never have before so that was cool! When we drove up north to catch a surf contest(drove around forevaaa and couldn't find parking :( so bummed) the beaches were awesome! Huge waves, big, long beaches, just beautiful. The color started to change to more of a turquoise color. We stopped at a place in Newport beach called The Wedge. People there body surf! Ya they just use their bodies and surf HUGE waves! No thanks, but very cool to watch! I am happy I get to be here and see new places and things. It will be good for me. Then I can go home. HAHA :)

OPIE!

Seriously this cat kills me, like might be the cause of my death. Ok let's make this story quick. We go out for a few hours, I get to let her roam the house cause Harley is not here. We get back and we are tired and hungry. So I make a horrible meal and sit down to eat it. Tony says "She got into a plant!" I look and it's all knocked over and I see her on the stairs gagging. Not making any sounds though. I want to cry just looking at her. I said "Tony she doesn't look too good! She has something in her mouth." So he's yelling "Get it out Jaclyn!" and I am standing there staring at her thinking thoughts of her death and how am I gonna live without her. I know, I am crazy. So I grab her and put my fingers in her mouth and just pull out phlegm. She starts to puke a little and goes and runs under the bed. I just sit and watch her for a few minutes. Tony goes over to the plant to assess it and he says "Jaclyn, it is plastic! I thought it was real and she could be poisoned! But she can't be." I said "I knew it was plastic, but couldn't she still be poisoned?!" Well he said no. I mean I have no idea!!! So ya, I am in California and this is what I have to write about today. Seriously.

Boston accent

Well I think the dog here is finally getting use to me. His name is Harley and I guess I don't say it right. So I have been told! HA! Kinda sounds like Holly but with an a, Hally!! I think he was wondering what the heck I was calling him. His parents get a wicked kick out of the way I talk. The town they live in is Carlsbad, another tricky one for me. They make me repeat myself so they can laugh. They have a cat Romeo, so no trouble there.

West coast birthday

I think this was my first birthday away from my family. I was quite sad yesterday. I skyped with my brother, Sarah and my freakin adorable nephew Desmond. Of course I cried after. I miss them. I miss all of my family and friends! So yesterday was tough. I wasn't in the greatest of moods. But I was trying! My dad was the first to call me :) Leah was the first text! Tony made me a delicious breakfast and went to pick up my gifts that some of my family had ordered me. Yummy fruit and chocolate covered strawberries!! I got a very generous gift from Tonys sister and a sweet card. His mom made me dinner, and gave me a gift. His dad bought me flowers. Very nice of everyone :) Thank you and love you all!!! We also got free money at casino but didn't leave with any! BOO!!! We went to the beach today. I like to sit there and read. It's very relaxing. The houses there were amazing!!! I am probably going there tomorrow so I am going to take pictures.
