No More Lehman Brothers/Facebook

So the hubby works for Lehman Brothers and he was one of the 20 people trying to save the company this weekend. He is on the finance end of the Real Estate division. It was crazy. He never came home on Thursday night and worked all day Friday. At least he was able to work from home this weekend. It still didn't help. He went into work this morning with his suit and tie and he still has a desk to sit at. Who knows what will be. All I know is that the last 6 months sucked and I know something better will come of this. You know me always optimistic.

A couple of good things came out of this weekend.... My sister's son had his Bar Mitzvah and it was wonderful seeing family and old friends. Also, one of my business partners went to a training seminar and she came back with 3 things to say to me..... 1) Thank you 2)I love you & 3) We are going to get rich!!! She finally gets our business and that was so great to hear!!!

I also finally made a profile on facebook and all my old friends are contacting me. It is addicting. Check it out....http://www.new.facebook.com/home.php

I am not even sure if it is going to work but give it a go.

I'm Back/Kids are back from Sleep Away Camp

I've been so bad at blogging. Sorry to all of you who kept checking. I was so obsessed with finding my kids in photos each day combing through hundreds of photos and trying to spot the back of my kids heads. I also wrote them each and every day. This was soooo time consuming. Next year I will be much better. This was my first year for both kids to go to sleep away camp. What I learned...... Those pictures will always be waiting for me and not to write each day. All the junk games, books, stickers are never used. The only thing girls play with is Jacks. The only thing little boys play with is Pokeman cards. My son told me that he never read any of my letters because they were too long. All that time wasted. I now know that the kids are really happy with the camp we chose and they both made so many friends. I can now send them off next year and enjoy my time alone. I was really quite surprised how much I loved the empty house and the freedom to do what I want.

One of the other reasons I have haven't been blogging is I am focusing on my home based business. When I am home I am either on the phone with business partners or managing my web portal on the computer. I am starting to take this business more seriously. I did miss blogging though.

So the kids came home with over 100 lbs of laundry and my son came home with lice. We went straight to Hershey Park from camp but our first stop home was the lice lady. We all had to get combed out and all the the camp duffels went straight to the laundry mat. $120 in comb outs and checking and $126 at the laundry mat. I am an expert at combing out and if anybody local needs to be combed out I can always help.

The kids are back at school and their schedule is crazy. My little 8 yr old started tackle football and it is 4 days a week. Hebrew School twice a week, drum and skate board lessons, dance, tennis and girl scouts. I just never thought I would be one of those moms. I love some down time. They both quit soccer. Football and tennis are short seasons so it will change end of November.

I will start blogging but I can't promise it will be every day.
Miss you all!!!

Still So Busy for Blogging/Visting Day at Camp

I know it has been a while but I have been crazy!!! I've had my best friends staying with me all week and I was entertaining them. When I am on the computer I am looking at 200 pictures from my kids camp and trying to find them in the background. I also decided to go through my daughter's closet and sell some stuff on eBay which takes a bit of time downloading, posting, checking in and answering a bunch of questions. I posted 7 items and I have many watchers and 2 bids. I will keep you posted on my selling status.

Yesterday was visiting day and it was a perfect mostly sunny day in the Poconos. We got to see our kids there were some tears but we had an amazing day and they are both just sooooo happy. We went tubing with them and that was a highlight of our day. We only have 3 more week to go and the time goes by so fast.

Friday I am going to Fire Island for the weekend and then when I get back I will be in Greensboro, NC for a business conference for 5days.

I just got my nano and a voyager phone and finally I am part of the media generation of being connected. I've been listening to a book I downloaded and I even know how to text. Mind you our plan for our phone is less money because we just realized through my husband's company we get a 20% discount.

The summer is going fast and I can't believe my kids have been away for 4 weeks now.

My new summer reality shows are.....
Big Brother 10
Project Runway
Shear Genius
So You think You can Dance
Legally Blond - Over
Bachelorette- Over


Still time at 1 am watching DVR to catch up on my crazy shows.

I hope I have filled you in a bit sorry about falling off the blogging wagon.

Wish List Wednesday - Still No Time for Blogging - Transitions Weight Loss Program


So I thought when the kids were off to camp I would have all the time in the world to focus on blogging, my business, and having fun. The business and having fun are happening but I just don't have time to blog. Most of my time on the computer is looking at camp pictures, printing camp pictures, looking for free online stationery and emailing and writing my kids. During the day I am also consumed with getting the stuff that got lost in transit for the kids eg... face wash, Yankees hat, purell..... Each day I am purchasing something fun to put in a package. Who knew it would be this exhausting not having the kids home.


I also have been focusing on my weight loss program it's been over 60 days and I was suppose to measure myself but I just haven't had time. I know I lost around 10 pounds and many inches. I had to go out and get some new skirts and jeans. I am also able to wear those tight fitting shirts and I don't have to always wear those pregnant looking swing shirts all of the time. I think I will continue for another couple of months I feel so healthy. I do a boot camp class at the gym and I am one of the fastest and can do everything the instructor is asking of us. A couple of more months on my Transitions weight loss program and exercise regimen and I know I will be even happier. A bunch of women at my gym saw me and want to go on the same diet plan as me because they noticed my results. That just makes me feel great!!!!


If anybody is interested check out my JSShopping link listed on my blog.

1. For the kids to continue having an amazing time at camp

2. Kwana to finish writing her book !!! I started it and I love it!!!! ( That means it better get published!!!)

3. Get better at tennis this summer
