Merry Belated Christmas & A Happy New Year

I can't believe it's been about four months since I last posted. Wow...I'm slacking.
Well it's almost the end of the year. Yikes!!!!! I can't believe that 2009 is almost over and 2010 is right around the corner.
A lot of things happened in 2009. Papa passed away & I reunited with my cousin Amanda to name a few. Yet, even though this year has been trying for Nathan & I economically, we both realize that we are so blessed for what we have, especially the family and friends that love and support us, both near and far. Which brings me to one of my New Years Resolutions, to keep in better touch with everyone.
Anyway, We had a great Christmas this year with our family. Nate & I decided to hold a Christmas brunch at our apartment this year. Yes...Nate did the cooking. Grandpa, Grandma, Mom & Brock came over, as well as Nate's brother Dave & his wife Jovannah (spelling???). We also had a special guest join us. Amanda flew down for a night to spend Christmas with us. It was really great seeing and spending time with her and hopefully we can see her more often in the next year. Nathan spoiled me with presents and made me feel like such a princess. My Christmas present theme this year was stamping supplies & equipment & Santa brought Nate a lot of "Office" presents.
Not sure if I'll be back before the new year, so I just want to wish everyone a safe & happy New Years!!
Love you all!!!

Kitty Playground Part 1

I secretly stole a picture of the kitty playground that Nathan and my Grandpa are building. Nathan didn't want me to show anyone until it was complete, but I'm excited to show you all what we have so far. They still need to do a bit more work to it, such as carpet it, but I think it looks really good. I know that Gea & Que will have a ball chasing each other around it. Nani....well I hope she doesn't break it.
Anyway...I'll post another pic once it's complete.
Until then.....Princess J

Happy Birthday Mum!!!

Being a Landlord is Harder than I Thought...

While I've been living in Southern California, I've been renting my condo in Hawaii through a property management company. Since the end of last month, I have decided to take on the task of being a landlord myself. Boy, there is a lot more to being a landlord than I thought. It didn't help that my last tenants left the apartment in a mess. The a/c didn't work, and it's only a year old. Locks needed to be changed. But I do have to say that I could not have done it without Kelley and the most amazing new tenant. Thank you both so much!!!
But the drama continues.... We've got the plumber coming to the apartment today because my tenant said the bathroom wall between the toilet & shower is "mushy". When I asked how mushy, she said that she could probably stick her finger through it. Shit!!!!!! So I pulled out my homeowners insurance package to see if I'm covered for stuff like that, which I am. But the thing we will find out today is if the leak is coming from my apartment, or from above. If it is coming from above, then the association will be responsible.
I am trying not to stress, but you know me. I guess I'll just have to wait & see.
I'll keep you all posted...

The Other Love of My Life

Ooopps...I almost forgot the most important love of my life!!

The Love's of My Life

I just wanted to share with everyone a couple of reasons why my life is so blessed....

My First Blog

Hey All
Well, here we are...my first official blog. Don't really know where to start, so here's a little information about me. I just turned 30 a couple of months ago. I live in Fullerton, California with Nathan (the most awesomeist boyfriend ever), and my three babies, Nani, Gea, & Que (No I haven't reached that part of my life yet, my babies are my kitties). I am currently working at Mobile Line Communications, a job which I love, especially the people I work with. And I am trying to get my degree in Accounting at the University of Phoenix. My hobbies are cross-stitching & stamping. Oh...& I have the most amazing family every, diverse and expanded, but amazing. I am lucky enough to have a great, loving dad, three mothers, and multiple step-brothers and sisters. I have also been blessed with many friends who have supported me throughout my life.
So that's where I am in my life at the moment. There is a lot more to tell you, but that will come in the future blogs.
To all my family & friends reading, know that I love you with all my heart!!!
Till the next blog....
