Friendship Day

At Baby Girl's daycare, Valentine's Day is known as Friendship Day. I asked why and the response was "So, that all people can celebrate the holiday." I guess it makes sense since it typically a couples/lovers/romantic day. When we arrived at school the room was decorated like Valentine's Day with a ton of heart everywhere. Valentines were not given out but Baby Girl did give her best friend, Logan one. She snuck it in his mailbox. Baby Girl also sent valentines to several of her baby friends and aunt and uncles. In the past, hubbers and I have made a big deal about the holiday but with the baby girl we kept it real low key. Almost non-existant! hehehe We didn't mind though. I had a perfectly pleasant day though. At work we had a little gathering, a a few boxes of candy were sent our way, then I went over to the daycare at lunch and played this hearts game with Baby Girl and Logan. Overall, it was a pleasant day of love and appreciation for those that I love. baby Girl received a few valentines from her grandparents which she had fun opening. Have I told you that girl loves paper?! A lot of people have turned against valentine's day but it doesn't have to be just about spending a ton of money on dinner and flowers. It can be about the simple things. For me it was important to acknowledge the day with Baby and help her celebrate, not in an extravagant way but in a fun way. Cause that is what life is all about, the love and the celebrations with others.

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...

How Was Your Weekend?

Does a Monday morning ever go by without someone asking you how your weekend was? I got to work and was bombarded with the question and this week I didn't have a thing to say. Didn't feel good the whole weekend so we did nothing except managed to go grocery shopping, make a trip to Target and watch several epsiodes of Quantum Leap and Battlestar Gallactica. I found that when you don't have anything to say it's good to have at least a change in your appearance to deflect the pitty looks for not having done anything on your weekend. Luckily, I had a new hair cut and color job so I was able to skip the fact that I didn't have any exciting plans to report. Last week I awoke with that I can't this hair anymore attitude and booked an appointment. I went back to bright blonde as opposed to darker blonde with brown streaks I had for the wedding. It was refreshing to go get your hair done after spending the weekend in pain. Luckily for me, the new hair color must hav...
