Wish List Wednesday/Sleep Away Camp Send Off Saturday





My only wish for this week is that I don't breakdown too much in front of my kids at the bus pick-up. This is my first time alone without both my kids. I have been soo sad and in funk all week. I will be fine when I know my kids are having a ball at sleep away camp. It can then be about me!!!

The above pictures are literally the camp my kids are going to. It looked like paradise to me when I went to visit. I am sure they will be fine.

Bachlorette-Good Bye Graham I Will Miss YOU!!!


I know I have been terrible about blogging but my focus has been about getting my kids off to sleep away camp. The amount of work is endless.


I just had to write about last nights devastating decision to get rid of Graham. He is the reason I have been watching. Graham is soooo hot!!!! She is still soooo young. How do you not take a chance on that type of chemistry. I like the other guys a lot but I liked to look at Graham the most. I will still watch reluctantly but I am so sad I will not be looking at my hotty!!!!

I will miss you Graham!!!

A List Bravo Awards/Wish List Wednesday on Friday






It's been a crazy week this week. First my daughter's Middle School was evacuated on Tues morning and I was with 3 girls (5th graders) just hanging, shopping and going to Dunkin Donuts to keep their mind of the scariness of the day. Our community is still dealing with the repercussions of that day.



On Wednesday I am at the Doctors office when Kwana calls me in a frenzy asking me to join her for the Bravo A List Awards. The person who was suppose to go got stuck in court. I had 2 kids with me and the hubby has been working till 9 every night. I was suppose to watch a movie with the daughter that night and my son was suppose to go to baseball practice which he loves. So the negotiations began. I had to pay them both big time to not be mad at me for ruining their night, then I had to let them rent a movie on cable that I really wasn't crazy about them seeing. My daughter is 11 1/2 and the son is almost 8. I leave them alone for no more that 2 hours this would have been 3. I called the neighbor and she said she would call and check on them. I got home at 5:30 and I now had to get dinner for the kids, leave dinner for the hubby and get dressed for a cool awards show in the city. I had 25 minutes to do it all. It was yucky weather in NY and I showered that day but didn't wash my hair I just threw on a hat. Now I had 15 minutes to get ready and look snazzy. My hair looked like a greaseball so I remembered that if you put powder in your hair it takes out some of the greasiness. I grabbed the first powder I saw and started to put it in my hair. I finally looked at the front and realized I just put foot powder in my hair. I have to say it did the trick. You should all try it some time. Kwana was at my house at 5:55. It was a great night check out Kwana's blog for the details.

This is us waiting on line to go into the awards show.

Thursday night was the Middle School band concert. My daughter plays clarinet. They did a great job. We didn't get home till 9:30. My computer was down all day with a Fios problem.

So now we are up and running and finally catching up.

Wish List Wednesday : Better late than never
1. The hubby's job slows down
2. If 1 can't happen then I wish the hubby gets a new job
3. That I will survive the Yankee game this Sunday with 94 degree weather.
4. A wonderful weekend for all.

Working on my 29 Gifts/Weight Loss

So far it hasn't be too hard to do. Of course I am only on day 4. Some days I may even do 2 things. I don't want to brag but it can be more than 2 but I only put the more important ones down on my challenge. I hope you all will join me it is rewarding.

Anyway I hate weighing myself but I went to the doctor today and I lost 6 pounds since I started this weight loss program. I really don't care about the weight but even with the loss I got in a bit of a funk. I have another doctor's appointment on July 30th so I am fine for the next 8 weeks.
