Why does time fly by so fast?

Sometimes I feel like I need to pump the brakes - but I'm never able to find them.  Its been a whirlwind since we migrated back to the Bay Area.  We left Brooklyn in July and stayed for a few months in Orange, CA.  Grandma and Grandpa were there, so it felt like an extended vacation.  The days were warm and sunny, and we certainly made use of it.  Outdoor swimming classes w Max (this Irish girl got her a tan!), going to the beach, First trip to Disneyland for the lil guy, hanging out with friends in Orange, Camping, Camping and more Camping. And hitting up Garage sales - this cheap ass bitch loves her some garage sales! It was a hot summer here in Ca,  but growing up in the desert I throughly enjoy the dry heat. Nothing can ever be as bad as summers on the East Coast - that humidity kills me.

Now we are getting settled into our new home in Alameda.  Its really a great little town, with much to offer -  and its so close to SF.  We moved from Park Slope (baby capital of NYC) to Alameda (baby capital of Bay Area).  It has been fairly easy to meet parents/kids here.  Max has also started preschool, which has been a HUGE help.  Having three days to myself, I dont know what to do.  So I am slowly catching up on things I have been putting off/not enough time to do (i.e. this blog)  Ok not going to write too much today....baby steps.
