Recently Ms. Heart was saying that I needed a pair of Louboutin’s. I told her maybe some day. Today was that day. When I came back from lunch today at work, I found a package with flowers for my early birthday present. It was from her. AND it was the exact pair that I wanted, Daffodile pumps!
Update: I just realized how expensive these are = OMG!

My youngest graduates this weekend from High School. It is hard for me to believe. I am proud of her. I am proud of myself, I survived.
I am not sure I am going to survive this upcoming weekend though. Parts of the family are coming into town including my ex-husband, my ex-mother in law, my mother, my sister and a cousin. Since my place is so small, I just rented hotel rooms for all of them. They all arrive on Friday, just in time for the Baccalaureate Mass. Dinner plans that night are back at my house while on Saturday after graduation; my ex-husband will be treating us all to Brunch. They all fly out on Sunday.
Come Monday, I will be much more relaxed.
In a strange twist of planning, with my daughter’s graduation also comes a rather hectic summer for her. On Monday, my daughter is going to Hawaii with three friends for 10 days. The trip is being paid for by the ex-in laws. When she gets back, she is leaving within 24 hours. She is spending seven weeks in Chicaogland. She is not looking forward to it. From Chicagoland, she will be going with a couple of cousins up to Wisconsin for three weeks to help build a summer cottage on a lake. From there, she will be back here for a two weeks, and then it is start of her freshman year in college at UC Davis.
So it has hit me, my daughter is basically moving on. I will always have a bedroom for her. But it is that time where it is the next phase, for her and for me.

I never have had a passport. I will be 38 years old next month and I have never had a need for a passport. So this morning, my boss says to me that I am going on a trip to London next month. He told me that we will be there for two days of work but if I wanted to stay a few days longer the company will pick up the hotel room. I was stunned. I then panic. I don’t have a passport. He smiled and said, “Well get on it.”
Thank god for ADH. I called her in complete panic. I had no idea what to do. She calmed me down and got me in contact with the right people. In less than a few hours, I had my picture done and all of the information submitted and my rush fee paid.
I am going to London! I am so excited. I should be cooler but I’m not. London!
