Hey! Get your mind out of the gutter. I am a married woman! Plus, my mom and my sister-in-law (not to mention my sexiest-man-alive husband *sheepish grin*) read this blog so...as IF. Anyway on to the real post... I can't explain it but there is something about certain writers that resonates deep … [Read more...]
AROUND THE WORLD IN A DAY – DISNEY’S EPCOT
Epcot is more than twice as big as either the Magic Kingdom or Disney-MGM Studios. It rarely sees the congestion so common to the other parks but the big attractions have lines every bit as long as those of Space Mountain or Rockin' Roller Coaster. All this is to say be prepared to do a lot of … [Read more...]
always a bridesmaid…and you could be a winner!!!

Fun, Sun and RELAXATION
Sorry for my recent absence but I've been "busy" relaxing on the beach. My husband finally managed to convince this obsessive workaholic that it was time to take a break. No blackberry. No internet.

I know, I'm not holding up my end of the bargain here, but I swear I have good reason. We spent the first 2 weeks on vacation visiting … [Read more...]
Back to School Movie Blues
So its back-to-school time here (yep, Aug 20...how crazy is that??) & I am a little saddened by this. No, it is not the changing of the seasons (which we have 2 of in LA...warm & slightly less warm), nor the kids disappearing from fun summer play busied up by nightly homework (what is up … [Read more...]

We went to Disneyland, walked way too much, missed the Nemo ride (3 hr wait is a little … [Read more...]
