NPHC Weekend


I have been tired all week from the past weekend. It was Alumni Chapter National Pan-Hellenic Council Greek Unity Weekend. There were all sorts of activities planned from a community service to a picnic. Well, I am a sorority girl at heart and anytime, well most of the time, that I spend sometime with my sorors it is a good time. I have been practicing for weeks for a party- stroll (if you have seen Stomp the Yard or School Daze you know what I am talking about). I really need to remember that I am in my thirties and not my twenties any more. I am still sore this week from all the practice and the show. Unfortunately, on Saturday, the judges ( who do not know good taste, when they see it) scored us 5 points below the next team. So we lost...what a bummer. I won't lie, I was so pissed that I needed to leave before I said some choice words.( I am in the middle getting ready to get my stroll on)

After the party stroll, there was an after party at a local club. I have not really been to a club for several years and after last Saturday I see why I have not been to a club. There were sites that were not meant for public eyes to see. I really felt over dressed with my top and jeans on. So after standing in line for 45 minutes and not getting in, I brought my 30-something(use to love this show) butt home.

On Sunday there was a picnic. I was not going initially since I was still pissed from my team losing the party walk. Well, the drama did not happen at the picnic it happened before the picnic , when Mr.J saw my dress. I thought I was cute. He thought a was a little too cute. He was a little upset when I left in my dress anyway. What do you think? I had a good time at the picnic, seeing all of my friends, eating the free food and line dancing for almost a half an hour.( I am in the blue dress getting my line dance on. I really need to remember that I have arthritis.)

Maybe this weekend I will be able to relax a little...NOT!! Mr. J and I have plans to go to a jazz concert and we have our "trash the dress" photo shoot. I really miss the days of getting up on Saturday mornings in my Underroos with a bowl of cereal watching cartoons, until it was time for a nap. Those were the days. Have a great weekend!!!

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

26 Weeks

Size of Baby: Baby J is about the length of a cucumber. Baby J is still the same size as last week. Maternity Clothes: Trying to mix it up some with different tops. I feel most comfortable with tank tops ( or AKA wife beaters) and cardigans. I have found some really cute ones at Old Navy. Gender:  Still not telling.  Movement: Lots and lots of movement. Sometimes it feels kinda weird. Baby J is moving alot more than last week and more often when I am working at my desk at w ork . Sleep: Getting more energy back, but some days I really just want to sleep.
