Well, Friday is back, and it also happens to be Halloween. I'm at Em's with the kids but Kev should be home soon, so off I will go to start the night's festivities. Sophia is going as a skunk, and a very cute one at that. We are having our friends, Dan & Samantha, over with their son, Trevor, who is one month older than Sophia. I bought a special Lia Sophia sign to stick in my yard to advertise to all the mommies bringing around their kids for trick-or-treating. I may sneak a business card or two into their little treat bags as well, always on the hunt for more money making opportunities (ha ha). As far as the week went, BUSY is the only word that sums it all-and the weekend is not going to let up either. Tomorrow, Me, Ant, Sophia, Em, Kev, Mia, & Bubba are off to Connecticut to see....drum roll please...THE WIGGLES!!! Yayy! Me & Em are practically wiggles groupies from watching them alllll the time, lol, so we are very very excited. As soon as we get home, I have to jet over to my friend, Eva's, to participate in a vendor "open house" night where I have already set up a Lia Sophia table. Hopefully I can rack in some business there. Then, on Sunday, I am doing a show at Aunt Nancy's and off to Outback to bar tend at 5. Whew! Just seeing it in words makes my head spin. I won't even go into how busy my week has been, I'm sure you can only imagine. But please do not mistake this for bitching or complaining, I am extremely grateful to be busy. Money is good, I'm doing what I love surrounded by people that I love even more. Burnt out-maybe, but, unhappy-definitely not! I am blessed....and I can sleep when I am dead. lol. Tuesday I get a day off from babysitting due to election day, but I will prob be catching up on my cleaning and laundry. The madness never ends!!! However, Em agreed to split up our week where she would alternate bringing the kids to my place and me coming here. That is a huge help, it will allow me to be home to get things done during the day that have been neglected as of late (ahem...laundry).
Last weekend was alot of fun, our Friday night dinner was a success and the food turned out great (thanks to my awesome hubby who cooked and cleaned for the occasion). Then on Saturday, I ran some errands until Ant got home and we headed over to my parent's for dinner. Seeing everyone was nice...not something I get to do often anymore. My new niece, Taylor, is a peanut and sooo beautiful. I love holding a brand new baby again...made me reminisce of Sophia as a newborn. I def miss those days....maybe one day soon I will have some good news for everyone (no that is not a pregnancy announcement). Sunday was just a day to relax...made breakfast for Ant & I(bacon and eggs), and we went out & bought Sophia some new fall/winter clothes from Kohl's as well as new sneakers for the hub. Then he headed off to his parent's house with Sophia to watch the Jets and I had a few hours alone until I had to work. Of course I watched "Atonement" again, for the 100th time, and then headed off to make some more bacon (not the kind we ate for breakfast,lol) .
I must share with everyone, before I go, my favorite TV show. Private Practice has got to be the most addicting, emotional, tear-jerking show ever. Every week I am left choked up and blubbering like a baby. Definitely watch it!! It is on every Wednesday night at 9 on ABC and full episodes are available to watch online.
Well that is all that I have for now...I hope everyone has a fabulously, spooky Halloween! And no teepeeing the neighborhood! xoxoxox
