Sam and Kendra's excellent adventure ;)

 
 
Sam and I are back from the beach...
Whew.. we had an adventure... 
You know what... 
I have the best time with him...
I would follow that man anywhere! 
 
We took off yesterday morning, went to the Newport house and made a final to do list. Then we headed to Redondo and walked it with some subcontractors... I should have taken a picture of the new kitchen there... Wow, so beautiful... I am SO DAMN JEALOUS.. I NEVER GET TO LIVE IN THE REMODELED HOUSE! We move and then remodel it... Grrrrrrrr.....
Anyway... then Sam and I checked into the Sea Sprite Motel [on the beach at Hermosa Beach] we got the best room because the guy who made the reservations with me was so fun the night before!  The conversation went like this...
"Sea Sprite Motel"
"Do you have any openings?"
"Any openings?" he laughs "Like for a cocktail waitress?"
then I laughed
"OK, I had a blonde moment... Do have any rooms available for the 16th"
"Yes, I do...  name on the reservation?"
"Samuel"
"As in Samantha"
"No, as in Samuel, my husband"
"Uh... now I had a blonde moment"
 
We went back and forth... it was a lot of fun... I like people who are like that!
 
So anyway... we checked in and then rented beach cruiser bikes for the strand and rode to a favorite place...
Sam says to the owner "We would like a table with a good view"  [which was a joke] the guy looks at me and says "Looks like you have a good view already"  so I wagged my finger at him  "You... are my new best friend" and he laughed...
 
Wow... I was having a good day...!! I am in the best mood by now!  So Sam and I had a Corona and some appetizers... then we left and turned in the beach cruisers... we walked back to our hotel and read the local papers [trying to figure out how much rent to charge for the newly remodeled Redondo property b/c the last tenants were there for 8 years and we never raised the rent] about 8pm we walked back down to the pier area and decided to have drinks at a place called FAT FACE FENNERS - the local Irish saloon...
Well, wouldn't you know it...the place is busy with Boston Red Sock Fans... but they are NOT happy with the score 0-7 in the 5th inning... 
 
Sam finds a table and I went to the rest room... I decided to play with him when I got back...
 
"Hi... handsome... Is this seat taken...?"
"No not at all, have a seat!"
"Wow, thanks..."
"Can I buy you a drink?"
"Sure!"
 
[As you can tell he started playing right back...]
 
"Are you married?" I ask
"Yes I am"
"O...hmmmm... Your so handsome... is she pretty?"
"Yes, she's pretty.... pretty far away..."
I laughed
"Oh good!" and I snuggledup next to him...
 
[When Candice reads this she will say
"I swear Mom, your paying for my therapy"]
 
Anyway... we had a great time... walked back to the motel after a GREAT dinner and drinks at FFFF....
 
Today we went to visit Grampa and pick up some trailer side panels to fix our trailer...
 
I had so much fun with Sam... even if I had a slight hangover today!

Okay June 18th was the last damn time I was here under another name. I told you it was months ago. I lost all my links and then I kept checking your public journal when you didn't write much I just figured you dropped off the face of the Earth since you were busy realtoring.
LMAO you all will have to pay for all the kids therapy, but hey better you two drive all them crazy than the other way around right.
Glad you guys still got what it takes.
Hugs, Chrissie

Finally I get an invite to your blog....  That was funny... I dont really think that reading the paper to see how much to charge will be necessary, since Im gunna move there and think that I should get a family discount... PS... I would like you to remodel a new walk in closet as well to everything else.. heehee... LOVE YOU!!

OKay... instead of family discount,... I think that I should live there rent free in exchange for all the therapy you need to pay for...(lol)  It really would be a deal.... Im only looking out for you... and trying to save you money. haha Well you cant blame a girl for trying...
