No offense to anyone here in NY, but ...Hey Lisa...<br /><br />No offense to anyone here in NY, but I was California born & raised and I want to go back! We've had a rough time trying to "fit in" here for the last 2 years. <br /><br />I'll spare you all the horror stories, but one thing I thought was funny was in the begining when I asked our landlord where we could find a good pie. He proceeded to give me directions to a local pizza parlor...I almost did a spit-take! When I said "pie" I was talking about a boysenberry pie! Turns out that "pie" means something else, and bakery items in general are very different (not as good) on the east coast!! I sure do miss a good cake donut with my coffee!!<br /><br />We came here because of a good job opportunity for my husband, but as you may have read previously on this blog, he has been laid off. <br /><br />My attitude had become very negative and resentful during this time until I started to make an effort to change. Having faith is HUGE, and I'm trying to stay at peace. I know that God will open a new door for us!<br /><br />There is also a quote from Kanye West....Life is 5% what happens, and 95% the way you react.<br /><br />So true!<br /><br />Maybe someday we'll both end up in Cali!!<br /><br />Aunt BAunt Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09845425323438078955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5736646819351691636.post-77748378002676103132009-06-11T16:51:13.729-07:002009-06-11T16:51:13.729-07:00Oh I forgot to answer your question about where I ...Oh I forgot to answer your question about where I live! I am about half way out on the Island on the North Shore. I live right near StonyBrook University and Port Jefferson, if you have ever been here.<br /><br />Long Beach is much closer to NYC. Where is your Aunt? And why did you move to CA? Hey, my Aunt lives in CA! I just realized that! I wish I did. I don't really like it here, but my son still has three more years of school left and we promised him we would stay. I'm looking for beautiful views and some peace.<br /><br />If you want to talk more privately, you can email me at: <br /><br />lstonedesigns@optonline.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5736646819351691636.post-82597464923585142782009-06-11T16:42:23.571-07:002009-06-11T16:42:23.571-07:00Your story leaves me wanting to know more.

But you are hero in my book for being the one to help.<br /><br />Your blog style is really wonderful. Don't change it.
