Sunday June 26 (I think)

BYOC- Bring Your Own Crazy

It's FRIDAY so that means it's BYOC - Bring Your Own Crazy!  We answer a couple of questions in an effort to get to know each other better and to give our blogging brains a break!  Copy and paste and answer in your own blogs if you'd like!! 



1.  What’s your favorite room in your house?

I spend the most time in the kitchen so it must be the kitchen. I can see the tv, the kids in the backyard and I have access to 3 types of internet capable gadgets, oooh not to mention wine in the fridge.
I wish I had a tiny little reading room, with a great big papasan chair to snuggle up in and read but who's kidding who, I'd just end up in the kitchen again making snacks, solving disputes...... school's in again in 57 days!!! Woot Woot


2.  Picture question (or describe if you don't have a camera).  Show us a pic of your current favorite earrings!
They're cheap little crystal type hoops but since I never remember to change my earrings these are great because they're a little sparkly and I can wear them night and day, even to sleep in.


3. What’s your dress code at work? If you stay at home and went back to work outside the home, what dress code would you prefer?
I'm a substitute teacher so when I work I enjoy dressy black pants or a cute little skirt. The other days I'm a stay-at-home mom so its cotton pants or workout clothes (LOVE lululemon!!! www.lululemon.com  or www.athleta.com - has anyone tried their clothes, I want to order some but I'm not ready to commit without feedback). Working part time gives me an excuse to wear something a little dressier.


4.  Summarize your week in real life and in blog land. 

In blogland I've enjoyed reading everyone's new posts. I've started following two new blogs: Pale Skin is In - chronicalling Tina's battle with Melanoma, http://www.paleskinisin.com/2011/06/tinas-first-week-home.html and Our Family's Journey with Melanoma, http://thewilemansjourney.blogspot.com/2011/06/well-i-am-writing-from-hotel-in-memphis.html.
I'm not sure why I'm so focussed on cancer these days but it allows me to count my blessings (and remember sunscreen)
In real life, it was my sweet boy's 8th birthday this week (and my 41st birthday) so it was busy with celebration type events. Friday was his party and I made a fabulous (looking and tasting) cake made with Marshmallow fondant!! Yummo
The party was a great success as the 6 boys played baseball in the backyard for almost 2.5hrs!! I actually found myself bored during the party - THAT NEVER HAPPENS!!
Unfortunately with all the marshmallow fondant around I ate my weight in CRAP food. Losing 15lbs when I was sick last month was FABULOUSO but I'm sabatoging myself when I binge on this junk!!!! Time to have a date with my treadmill, its the only think that's saving my waistline (actually its the junk in my trunk - the waistline is not the issue).

Happy Blogging
