Hello all -

As some of you wonderful supporters and fans may well remember, this blog (walk it out) was an efficiency update from the "organized chaos" sight that Brooke and I began managing in 2007. I have just integrated and backdated all of the blogs I had posted on organized chaos - so now my thoughts are all in one place! Chronologically organized!!! :)

I am locating pictures and adding to each post what rightfully belongs where. Enjoy, if you like reminiscing over my past expeditions!

Thank you all for your love and support over these past few years. I hold you all dear to my heart as I embark on the next chapter in my life!

I have been questioned recently as to the status of "Walk it Out" now that my modeling days are on hie-etas....its still rolling! Who knows, I may change the name of it eventually - but I look forward to keeping it up to date and having you all continue to visit when you feel so inclined. My life may not be as glamorous as it once was before and during NYC; but I will post funnies and my thoughts, and opinions on things big and small... I'll share my life with whomever is interested.

xoxoxo

Lady Lab

The Caretaker

"Your family is what makes you tick, and you never "flea" from an opportunity to hang out with the whole gang. A family picnic complete with hot dogs, deviled eggs and a refreshing swim in the lake is hard for you to stray from. Your sparky temperament and dogged intelligence mean you are not only a blast to hang out with, but great to work with as well. Your close pals appreciate your patience and forgiveness, knowing you'd rather let sleeping dogs lie than dwell on the mishaps of the past. Your dashing good looks may one day lead to a modeling career, if only you can tame the unfortunate clumsiness that sometimes causes you to go flailing from the catwalk."

No matter how many times I took it, I was always either a Lab or a Golden Retriever! Funny, its so right on lol

She's So California

The irony, how I am so entirely engulfed with artistic expression after approximately two years of an artistic form of writers' block, that here I realize I've been entirely neglecting ya'll! So here's a much overdo update on Cali normalcy I love to call my life :)

1) I got my hair cut and dyed! Whatdya think of "Cinnaberry"? It's my colour :) It looks much shorter in this picture than it actually is, not to worry - the length is still long and I hope to get it looooongeeerrrrr.
2) As I'm sure ya'll who have ever had my mothers' cooking can attest, I've been kinda enjoying being home :) I've gotta say, size 6 is on its way back... and I'm so happy it suits me. I've also loooved getting my hands dirty in the kitchen again cooking w/for the family.

3) Finally! All of my NYC boxes have been unpacked and most of the junk has been moved into their new homes. Now that all that's out of the way, I can begin my ISSA Personal Trainer certification program with full focus and determination! I am very excited about this course and look forward to the knowledge it will provide me with in the field of fitness - to better help others and myself. Looks like I even have a few clients lined up already :) thx guys!

4) I am formulating my resume for job applications and am hopeful, even in this economy. The Lord has a plan! I am hoping for a summer position to help gain financial grounds before the Fall Semester of school starts...

which brings us to # 5) ... I have been researching my career in Radiologic Technology and am pleased to announce that my plan to attend SBCC (Santa Barbara City College) continues to prove the best option - lucky me! What I need to determine now, is what/if I can accomplish credits cheaper at Hancock while living at home before I transfer my transcript to SB... or just jump in with both feet! We'll see soon 'nuf!


Okay, apart from the big stuff :)
-- Mama fixed me up quick with an In-N-Out Burger (right after the plane landed!) sweet California nectar... cures anything.

-- Right now, my toes are painted a sports car shade of red w/ white pin-stripes down their middles LOL I had fun with that, and it looks cute too!

-- I am currently in the process of designing (with help from sister, family, and friends) my "Faith" Tattoo (more on this to come! Stay tuned!)

-- I'm thoroughly enjoying catching up with friends and spending time together. It is good to be with the family; routine and schedules are hectic and crazy... being together makes it liveable :)

-- I haven't worn makeup since I've been home!

-- Almost caught up on the Country Music Charts and the genre's new songs/artists ... deprived for too long. It's just inhumane to take Alan Jackson from a California girl and expect sanity!

-- A picnic trip to Montana de Oro provided the optimal opportuntiy to break the law, compliments of a California Poppy picking escapade - the orange smiles tucked behind my ear gave freedom a new colour. The horizon I missed so direly brought tears to my eyes and blood to my bones. Alone for miles and miles, a familiar Still Small Voice brought to me by the wind and the waves. I didn't feel alone at all - in all the silence, there was peace. Try this sometime: stand as close to the unprotected cliffs edge as you dare, arms out kamakazee style, lift your face to the heavens, close your eyes and just listen to the sound of the waves and wind break against only the rocks and, then, your voices' stress relieving SCREAM crescendos across the glass topped ocean towards the horizon! Such an invigorating sensation. Let go. Open your eyes. Drop your arms. Look straight ahead, unwaveringly. Watch as your voice carries all inner turmoil, stress, anxiety and fear away, entering the seacliff surroundings that are entirely unchanged by the minor disturbance.... breathe in the unaltered perfection. Feel small and insignificant. Feel loved and cherished. Fearfully and wonderfully made. Feel challenged and healed.

It's been too cold to get a tan... but it'll come, wait for it! LOL xoxo
