So what is the next project? I feel such a let down today.Son2 gets his wisdom teeth out this Friday so I need to rally and start to get my thoughts organized to take care of him. College boy comes home Saturday for his break between work and school. I must put fresh sheets on his bed and lay out fresh towels and make his favorite foods. Before he even steps foot in the door I start to think of… [Read More]
College registration time. Just me and son2 are heading up the coast.See ‘y’all’ (I am from Southern California, you know 😉 ) in a few days. Have a great rest if the week, BF’s. 🙂
Haunting. Memorable. His music is inspiring to me. When I saw the 4th movie (Patrick Doyle, composer), and the 5th (Nicolas Hooper, composer) in the Harry Potter series I knew there was something missing. For me it was in the music. This greatly affected my experience. I wasn’t brought into the story as emotionally involved as I had been before. This was such a disappointment to me. Nicolas Hooper has written the score for the second time.His reviews are in:… [Read More]
Last week I received 2 lovely blog awards. The first is from Preppy 101 of All Things Southern & Preppy. Thank you very much dear BF. What can I say about P 101 and her blog? We all seem to know her and love her and now she is going to be sharing her most fabulous journey of her daughter’s wedding with us. I can’t wait to hear all the details along the way. I hope her PD knows how… [Read More]
Have you ever wondered if your husband was having an affair? Years ago a friend of mine found out her husband had made reservations in Vegas by the credit card company’s fraud protection department calling the house and asking if anyone had recently used the card since the account had been dormant. ‘Bob’ changed his reservations from Vegas to a local Marriott Residence for several weeks thereafter before groveling his way back home. Then there was ‘N’ who was dutifully… [Read More]
I am loving this new Ann Veronica pattern‘Happy as a clam’.So summery. I can also recommend this double holder for your specs. Perfect for sunglasses and cheaters. I used to throw both in my bag unprotected. I know. My bad but I didn’t want to mess with two glass cases. I highly recommend this case for 16 clam-o-las.
The destination wedding we are going to is in 2 days. It is truly in the middle of nowhere to my way of thinking. The biggest airports are either LAX or San Francisco and this location is equidistant to both. This means a long trip by car, around 6 hours. Friends have called to inform me of the traffic we will probably hit. Seems the processional to Neverland is also headed the direction we are going. I really hope we… [Read More]
After all our celebrations last week I have been in an ‘after-parties-let-down funk’ and have resorted to eating mass quantities of dark chocolate and chips and salsa as college boy returned to Boston and the new graduate headed for the hills with his gf’s family to camp. Suddenly, I was faced with my first real taste of the empty nest. I hated it. To trade one vice for the other I crossed over to the dark side of retail therapy… [Read More]
