Introduction I created this blog in hopes of keeping family and friends up-to-date with our long, strange, transplant trip. Since 2006, we have split much of our time between Phoenix, AZ and Los Angeles, CA (hence, the title, "OceanDesert.") After waiting 2 yrs and about 30 days, on July 8, 2008 at UCLA Medical Center, I received that incredible gift. Since the transplant, I enjoy blogging about all the new adventures my husband and I have together!
Interests My family, friends, furry kids, traveling, motorcycling, sewing, scrapbooking, reading, writing, soaking up the sun in my backyard, HGTV, Food Channel, shopping, laughing, sipping lemon drop martinis, eating really good food, living anywhere near the beach, always in search of the perfect pair of jeans, shoes and swimsuit, ... I can't wait to post all my new interests that will come with my new breathers! ... I was blessed with new lungs on July 8, 2008! I NEVER thought it would be this wonderful.. My new interests have quadrupled! I LOVE the gym.. I love walking and running... I love weight lifting... I love yoga... I love my Wii Fit... I love walking my pup.. I love ZUMBA!.. I love running in races to challenge myself... I love every step I take breathing easily...My new found passion is running and training this body to do things it never before has done. For instance, I completed my first 1/2 marathon in March, 2009, an Iron Girl 5K in November, 2009, and another 5K in January 2010.. I plan to run many more in this wonderful new decade!!! Happy new year!!!.. Happy LIFE!

Favorite Music Tom Petty, The Cars, Cold Play, Fleetwood Mac, so much more
Favorite Books I love too many different kinds of books for too many different kinds of reasons to possibly try to list them here.
