Something to look forward too!!

I have been working way too much. One of our Midwives broke her finger and we are already down 2 midwives! F!

I have been known to be a workaholic. I work hard so I can play hard. But, with a man in my life, I find that I'm not as eager to work a lot and I'm tired. yet, I have no choice to work now. We have our own practice and if one midwife calls off, is on vacation or breaks her fucking finger, the rest of us have to make up for it.

But tomorrow, tomorrow I have a day off. I actually have two days off.

In a row!! woo hoo!!

So, me and my Mister are going to Santa Barbara to see Blame Sallie, an all girl band, play at a local restaurant.



We met one of the band members when we stayed down in Laguna Beach (She is the second one on the right side). She gave us a CD and we loved it. I signed up for newsletter and saw this gig and decided we were going!!

We booked a cute B & B. Quiet. Romantic. Fun;)

Happy Mother's Day

To all you Mom's, soon to be Mom's or Moms at heart:)

Since I am working today, Babygirl, BBoy,whiz kid and Buddy treated me to breakfast. Mr. J and lil dude came along and we had a very nice morning. After breakfast, I watched my future grandson, whiz kid so babygirl2 and BBoy could take their engagement pictures. What a fun day watching him and lil dude.

On a fashion note, I have my eye on these beauties:
Tory Burch Teagan Cut out Sandals $375.00



Manolo Blahnik Cage Boots at the reasonable price of $ 1165.00!!


Note:I really don't buy these pricey items. I only drool over them;)

Super Sunday

Babygirl1 and hubby are in town. Always so good to have them *home*.

Babygirl1 and babygirl2 worked hard all day making the invitations for the wedding. I can't believe how incredibly talented my girls are. These invitations are SO beautiful. Better than most I have seen professionally. I will take a pic in a few days and post.

In the afternoon, we went to my Mister's place and he grilled some steaks.



The chef is hot isn't he;)






My most awesome kids!

We had such a great time.
Buddy blew us off for church and a girl! That's just fine though. If he'd been there, we would have run out of food for sure.

All I have to say is...

YUMMERS!!!

Economic crisis hits home

My son- in law was layed off last Friday. He is an Accountant in a major firm. He made it through the busy season and watched many co- workers let go. He thought he was safe.

Not so.

The kids have such a good attitude. He received a 2 months severance and babygirl1 provides the health care for the family. They have been financially responsible, have no credit card debit and both cars that are paid for. They will be fine but I worry. It's my job as a Mom.

In this tough economic times, I feel so lucky. I just got ANOTHER job, not losing my only job.

I hope hubby finds a job soon.

Happy Earthday!

There's really nothing wrong with him!

I manage to have a nice weekend despite my cold. I liquored up on airborne and I didn't get as sick as a lot of my colleagues. Whew!

I hung out with my Mister most of the weekend. Saturday our "boys" met and it was love at first sight. Buddy is exceptional with kids and little dude is no exception. They bonded over wii and the swimming pool. It was a warm, sunny day, perfect for our activities. I wish I could post a picture but I don't feel comfortable to post a picture of him without his dad's okay. I will tell you though, he is a stunner!

Later that day, I drove buddy to the theater so he could see a movie with his friends. He says to me on the drive:

"Mom, I like Mr. J. i hope you marry him."

Me:Umm, I'm glad you like him but, it's only been 4 1/2 months.

Buddy:Well, you are older so don't wait too long.

Me: I should probably wait for him to ask me though.

Buddy: Mom, this is 2009, girls ask that kind of stuff. And, there's really nothing wrong with him so don't wait.

There's really nothing wrong with him!
