Thinking about my daughter and her previous beauty pageants made me think of the videos that we have somewhere in the house of her in those pageants. I am going to have dig around and see if I can find them. We have a whole box of home movies that are on VHS, I would love to have converted into DVDs. I’m going to have to look into that and see how much work that would entail, let’s face it, there is work involved in anything these days!
How is your colon treating you lately?
I’ve been reading a lot lately about how important the colon cleanse process is and how it eliminates the toxins which have built up in your digestive system. Doctors are really pushing the treatment and how they consider it to be a key to your personal wellness.
Happy Birthday Sis
My sister is celebrating her birthday today. I wish she could spend the day doing everything fun and nice for herself to pamper her body and relax the mind. Wouldn’t that be anice way to start the next year of your life?
But she doesn’t have that luxury, what with the economic times we are all in plus the fact that her hubby was hurt in a car wreck and can’t work until he recovers. So it was off to work she goes, and her dinner plans include Chinese take out that she picks up on her way home from work. So at least she doesn’t have to cook.
Sis – I love you and hope you manage to have a happy day on your birthday!
Holiday Getaways
This is the first year that we didn’t manage to get a way for a week or at least a long weekend before school started. Between all the non-stop drama that seems to be never ending around here and the lack of any extra money in the budget we have pretty much stuck here in town and at the house.
But there is hope that we might be able to squeeze out enough money and time to do a winter getaway. There is always a first time for everything they say. I have been check out some of the groupon getaways that I was told about and I feel myself getting excited about actually being away for either Thanksgiving or Christmas. At first I found myself getting all sentimental about not being with all our other friends and family members during these crazy and hectic holidays, but after giving it more thought I really think that it would be a good thing to try for once.
It is always such a pain trying to prepare for the usual holiday festivities that take so much time, energy, money and emotion. Trying to please everyone, even knowing darn well that is impossible, but I seem to keep on trying year after year after year. And to be honest I really get tired of eating so much turkey, mashed potatoes with gravy at each and every family members house that we are compelled to visit each Thanksgiving and then a month later do it all over again for Christmas.
I’ll get you posted on what I come up with and when.
Choreographed Wedding Dance Lessons
I’m so glad that Sharon is being pro active in organizing the wedding dance lessons santa monica as she was advised to do. It can take up to six months to get all the people and the dance all choreographed, even more if the people involved lived farther out than some of the others. I’m lucky that it is only a short trip for me to get to the dance studio. I usually get there early so that I can stretch out and limber up. If I didn’t I don’t think I would be able to be much good on the dance floor. The older I get the harder it is to stay in shape. Dancing is a wonderful way to exercise. I miss going out and dancing on the weekends like we did back in the day.
Hubby isn’t half bad on the dance floor, as long as he has a couple of beers under his belt. Before the kids came along we went out dancing at least 2 or 3 times a month. So being invited to participate in this choreographed wedding dance is right up my alley. I can only hope I do it justice!
They need air flow
While I was out and about I decided to stop by the insurance company where I used to work, years ago. My old boss is still there and he gave me a tour of their new offices. They’ve added another floor in the same building to their office space and made a whole new data center since I worked there. So they are like twice as big as they were.
They even have a clean room for all the computer servers. But with all that equipment running 24/7, one of the things they desperately need is electronic system simulation from Flovent, that will create the perfect air flow in their new office. I learned about air flow from my brother, the computer expert, when he showed me the data center he built for one of his clients near my sister’s house. So I guess I know enough about it to be a little dangerous!
He had said such wonderful things about Flovent, that I will definitely be calling him to get in touch with my old boss and help them put in an application for Flovent’s great services. He might even do some more work for them as a consultant.
