Housewife, but not desperate at all

Today I stayed home, I acted like a retro housewife and I really enjoyed it. 

I'm not going to say that doing laundry or housework was exciting but do something different than my normal routine was great.

Now we're going to enjoy our weekend without planning laundry or cleaning time.

Don't get me wrong : I'm 100% working girl and I will have hard time staying home by myself for too long. But I really appreciate being useful at home.

S'more

I made another step on my quest to be more American last night.

I had my first S'more ever !

It's really good but why is all the American food that I love so fattening ? It's not fair !

I'm addicted !!!

I need help ! I'm addicted... to Cesar Millan "the Dog Whisssperrrerrr"!

I just love this show and can spend hours watching it. Cesar is impressive ! Even Dan who is not into dogs, watches the show with me. 

Dan loves Daddy (the brown Pitbull) and I love Junior (the grey one).

I lost my dog Homere few years ago and I still miss him a lot.

It will be really hard to love another dog as much, but I know I need one in my life.

Hopefully, next year or the year after, I will go pick out a puppy... and a kitten for Dan ;-)

I'm more American

I'm officially American. Not because I received my Green Card (it was in September) but because I bought a travel mug last week. I suppose I was the only person in California without one ;-)

Resume

Dan helped me to make a new resume.  A great one !

I miss being a camera operator and I need to find a job soon. 

I sent around 40 resumes and I received a few positive answers already. I will even have an interview in 2 weeks ! I'm so excited and I really hope I will have the position.

I'm still looking for more job offers. Let's cross our fingers.
