Have been a slacker

So sorry for missing so many days of posting. Everytime I get on the computer to check my email and fave message boards I would always have the best intentions of getting in my blog and writing something but after all that I normally do and check the thought doesn't come back to me until I have turned off the computer. Aaaarrrgghhh!

The summer season is not helping either. Everyday it seems like something is going on that takes precedence to getting on here. They are good reasons though. That means I have a life and i'm living it. Feels good to say that. Now if only I have that kind of attitude when kids are bouncing off the wall and I have a million things to do!

Thursday, Friday and some saturday was spent looking for the perfect outfit to wear to Mitch's 20th high school reunion. Of course we were gonna go and being this was a first for both of us, we didn't know what to expect. I spent thursday with my kids and Gem at the block at Orange (an outdoor mall) to find something to wear. Of course I was unsuccessful. Kids plus more than three hours at the mall was not a good combination.
On friday we went to park day in the morning then left the kids at my parents' house to take Gem wedding decoration shopping. We hit this store called Fabric Barn (http://www.fabricbarn.com/) oh and it was ribbon heaven! If you live locally here and is into crafts go check out this store. Give me a call so we can make it a field trip. LOL! You won't be disappointed by the selection and price. That night Mitch and I went to Kohl's to get our outfits and spent way too much. But we both look hot!

Saturday morning I attended an "emergency preparedness" workshop at church. It was great. We already have our 72 hour kits but needed a car kit and so that's what I signed up for. We also was fed some great food made out of food storage staples. Overall inspiring activity.

That night we went to the Marriot hotel at Long Beach for the reunion. Most of the alumnis there didn't recognize Mitch without his nameplate with his senior photos. You gotta admit, the bald head kinda throws you off. hehehehe! He met up with one of his closest buddies in high school. Pretty cool. We didn't get out there till 12 am. A very late night for us "old foggies"!

Sunday was church and family time.

Yesterday (monday) was all about getting chores done and prepping the garden for some replanting.

Today was free movie day and more wedding planning/prepping.

All in all busy days and a lot more to come since our big wedding (Gem's big day) is coming up at the end of this month. I promise to try to post some pics of our July 4th events though.

And finally something I've had my eye on will (hopefully) be purchased very soon. Check it out here- http://www.nikondigital.com/main.html

Have a great day,
