The Gypsy on Adventure

Surprise

My morning started out on a quest to get my art magazines...so Michael and I went to Palo Alto's Borders...and they at least had Cloth Paper Scissors...and Somerset LIFE which I had not seen...

Then on our way back towards our house my son called...he was AT my house! SURPRISE! He came over to say Happy Mommy Day...I had a "feeling" he was down on Friday...and dismissed it! Too weird! I think that was why I attempted to clean my house! that did not happen!

So we sat around watched TV and talked...we ate some of the soup I had made yesterday. And then he went with me to the OTHER Borders in Sunnyvale...Score it had ALL the mags I wanted!

 

Way too funny...then we walked over to Starbucks and had a coffee...we sat outside and just talked! He looks good. I worry about him, but I think he is ok. And I was so glad to see him. I really miss him, and some times it feels like forever since I have seen him! 

I was heartbroken to have to tell him that Squeeks had passed away...and he didn't know about Alien. I guess I have been really sad...and he saw it. It is tough to get passed and Mothers Day is conflicted for me...but I am so glad he came by and stayed for awhile! And look at that face! What a great looking kid!

Rushing to get ready!

Yeah! I got off work early! HALF day! AND I proceeded to run around and get things ready for my mini trip to the Whine Country! The girls from work are heading out to Geyserville! Yeah! Beautiful area...fun friends...wine...and laughter!

Can't wait to get there!  Oh and a reason for compulsive shopping! snort!  I ran to Fry's...oh how I love gadgets! I finally bought some travel speakers for my iPodage! I am very excited about that AND a plug to recharge without a computer! Yeah! so I can recharge anywhere now! Smart move if you ask me! Now I just have to save for the Car plug in to work with the car stereo! On my list!

Then I got some wine and food!

Then I ran to Target! Bad thing to do! bought some stuff for the trip...mini things like toothpaste, scope, soup, mini shampoos and conditioners that kind of stuff and found some clothes! There is a surprise! giggle AND do you know that they no longer sell slips anywhere? Don't women care if you can see threw their skirts anymore? So I got some bike shorts! Yikes!

Then the task was packing the suit cases! AND my art bag! I am hoping to finish out cutting my Fatbook Paper Dolls out so I can mail them out! Yeah!

On a lighter note: iPodage!

Ah...Los Lonely Boys new albumn playing, and I just love them...also, India Arie's new albumn as well... I am enjoying the iPod! Music seems to move me and walk me through the tough times...this was the best present ever!

iPodage

I am getting it more loaded! I have been adding some more of my Cd's...it is time consuming...but so rewarding when I get to hear my music!!!!

AND iTunes finally came through ! In the beginning of March, on the 4th, I bought the album Charmed from the TV show...and only two songs would down load AFTER A MONTH iTunes finally put all the songs in my que! Yeah for them!

Now I am having problems downloading the FREE Tuesday tunes! Says I have it...NOPE not there! Sigh

iPodege

Have to tell you I am REALLY excited about my iPod! It is getting me through the day! AND the video rocks!

Vacation Lazy Day!

Well the most I did today was actually put on make up...fixed my hair rather than the pony tail...and ventured out to the quite busy Fry's to buy my iPod a hard case so I won't scratch or break my BEAUTIFUL white iPodege! As I was told by Sylvia Luna today (go give her some love),there are better headsets...so I may try to buy some tomorrow!

Then we went to lunch...and the nachos were great, but the real lunch made my stomach sour and I was sick for hours! So was Michael...gah! I hate that!

So I have just been cleaning a little for my mini party tomorrow...and playing with my iPod! I could NOT find ANY videos of David Bowie! that sucks! however, they had iggy pop! Who wants to see iggy? I want my Bowie!

AND I found that they have Audio books! Expensive, but rather cool! AND I have signed up for Pod Casts to teach me French! Giggle...I was a disaster in Spanish I can't wait to figure this out! Giggle I will no doubt suck at it! But it might be fun!
