Embarrassing!



Friday night my husband’s company hosted a get together at the Lightning vs. Ducks hockey game. I was pretty excited because the team is so fun and we don't get together often. Anyhow...Scooby and I are walking for the team to raise money for the humane society and while the owners were greeting us the team leader mentioned the team had raised $6500. Oops. "I must really be slacking" I said and Mrs. Owner said she was requesting donations in lieu of gifts for her birthday. Yowzers.

My birthday is Tuesday and I haven't received any cards yet...maybe I should do that too I was thinking. So I averaged it out..there are 16 of us walking so that would mean that the average is $205 but I'm sure the Mrs. has more than that plus she gave me a $50 donation. Hum, so I'm not sure what I should do but I feel like the class dunce with my measly $150.

What do you think? Should I walk around the neighborhood with my little tin can like when I was a kid? Or call every friend in my address book begging for donations? :) hahaha

Have a great day!

{6500/2 cause the company matches the donations/16}

Ugh, When in Rome...yuck!

Ugh, When in Rome, the new movie with Kristen Bell looked cute the first time I saw the preview 4 months ago. Now, I want to throw something at the TV everytime the ad comes on. Talk about oversaturation, yeesh. Even the music makes me cringe now.

End Rant  :)

Have a great day!

Martha: Blogger Edition



Hey Girls did you see Martha today? She was celebrating Bloggers. She had some interesting guests but I thought the best part was that so many of the Bloggers were preps! Also Jennifer & Alexis were on and it's so funny to see how she interacts with her mom. She's not afraid to point out what Martha doesn't know...er...maybe it's more like Martha has a different perception of Alexis and Alexis likes to set her straight. :)  I'm not sure why it reminded me so much of my mom & I but I really liked it.

There was also a girl who got laid off and wanted a new job at Martha Stewart so she started a blog Hire Me Martha to show off her skills. I'm thinking that is a very creative idea. I wonder if she has had any other job offers. She did say MSO had her resume but no nips yet. Interesting.

Time to start lunch. Have a great day!

Reader stinks



As I read my favorite bloggy posts it gets harder to stay focused. Maybe it's just me but Reader takes some of the joy out of it for me.  I love to click on my bloggy friend lists and see the whole beautiful page. Granted seeing the itty bitty one is nice if you want to browse but most of my favorites are my favorites so.......um.....bloggy friends, no more feeds, kay?

time for the pink fluffy jacket?



Hey Ladies. For those of you not following on facebook...the weather in Florida has been pretty wacky. It's 9am and 32 degrees outside. Totally unheard of. My husband said he saw snow earlier today. What the heck is going on? Don't get me wrong, I love me some cold weather. Finally a chance to wear my super cute outfits. :)  But now I need a jacket! Yuck....and of course that means getting in the attic and pulling down the jacket tub. yuck yuck.  I usually only need to do this once every 3 or 4 years when we go to Colorado. It seems so crazy to be walking around Target as the Pillsbury Dough Girl {don't shake your head..I went to college in Colorado and it's pink! And down jackets are, uh, cool. Yeah}

So, today I am a little bummed about the weather but I'm sure we'll be closer to 50 this afternoon and I wont need a jacket and I can head out in full on Ralph Lauren without the hindrence of a fluffy pink jacket!  Go Girl, show your fashion in style and Have a Great Day!
