We survived!

Well, the big "scare" of 6/6/06 is over....Miss T asked me last night why all the kids at school and some teachers were talking about this.  So I pointed out to her the "demonic" meaning of the sequence of numbers....she didn't want to hear it.  I also said "isn't it past 3pm?"...."see nothing happened" so it's all a hoax.  Nevertheless, we did see a serious coincidence with the Sept 11th world trade center....911....an emergency number sequence.  Leave it to some sicko's to do that 911 on 9-11...so I wouldn't put it past the same or similar sicko's to pull off a 666 stunt......or would that just be too obvious now.

I have a new job description to add to my resume........the boss brought in 4 pair of pants for me to affix a button and mend the pockets where his keys had poked through........ we are now officially the "office wives".  It is funny this circus I work for.

I received the official summer schedule for dance yesterday.  Thursdays are to be the mandantory "ballet" classes for all competing company members who are in lyrical, jazz or ballet company.  Tara also wants to pick up a hip hop class too and get back into acrobatics.  I'm glad for the acro, she is very limber, I  mean, this kid can get BOTH feet behind her head at the SAME TIME!  Just kills me!  At least the summer program will give her the opportunity to "try out" the hip hop to see if she really wants to do this.  There's not much "soul" in her moves if ya know what I mean....not too much rhythm there.  But she is very gracefull at ballet/lyrical (Mz Drama Queen) and quite the sassy Jazz kid.  The director even mentioned that she'd be great with a Jazz solo...Miss T has that lean dancer line body..not chunky, actually her ribs and hip bones stick out like mine did at her age.....oh those were the days.  (I graduated HS at 105lbs; 5'7" they called me Twig)

School has just 2 more days left...YIPPEE!!!!  After dance last night we went to Lisa Jo's fav CB for dinner, then I went over to Target to look for some teacher gifts.  I picked up some cucumber mellon candles, some note pads and a pen for each teacher. 

Also yesterday morning I did a Boo Boo.....I was rolling along my way to work enjoying Barbara's CD, hitting the repeat button, just as happy as can be.  I realized when I was 2 miles from the office that I was supposed to go to an attorney's office NEAR MY HOME that morning........turn around, go back!  Mind you we're talking 15 miles one way.  OH well, that just gave me more time to listen to Barbara's awesome CD, so not much of a loss there!!

I should be happy to be going to the beach house this weekend.  We'll be there from Friday through Tuesday, so don't send out any APB's on me....I'll be soaking up some sun, relaxing and reading hopefully.  Maybe a little fishing.  Maybe even my Mom will bring up my nephew....how fun.  I am so glad my parents picked up another beach house....we were devastated when they sold the other one.  (can someone say "spoiled"?)  I've looked around my house and I see all these things that I need to do...and should be doing instead of going over to the beach.  SOMEBODY SLAP ME!  I'M GOING TO THE BEACH --- THIS MESS WILL BE HERE WHEN I GET BACK!

I did stop by the Bernina (sewing) place yesterday because they advertised a week of beginner sewing that Miss T was interested in doing....but they are all full with a waiting list!  But while I was there, boy did I spy some nice machines.  I do need to get rid of the one I have (Satan's spawn) and replace it with one of these push button, do it all for you machines.....sweeeeeet.  At the end of the summer classes they sell the student machines at about $100 off their retail....I'll be pondering the purchase.  They also will do classes on serging...I have a new (bought it last August) White serger and I would LOVE to take the classes so that I can get the most out of my machine.

I should probably make myself a "to do" or "want to do" list and post it where I can see it complete with a picture of the deed.  Motivational list kinda.  It should start with CLEAN UP THE HOUSE AND GET ORGANIZED FIRST! so that you can do the Want To list.  I don wanna.............
