Well, after last weeks chaos and confusion...........order has been established once again with one word...................CAMPS. That is the only way for us moms to survive this summer. My kids were so busy with swim team, gymnastics, piano , strength training, etc. that they were happy to veg out in front of the tv for a bit before they crashed for the night. Everyone in the house was much happier with a steady schedule of events going on. I guess that is the ADHD/OCD in me coming out once again. AHHHHHHH..... order at last. Schedules are a good thing. Idle hands are of the devil etc etc... what are the other cliches? Anyways, new topic: All of the fancy pillows that I paid for & HAD TO HAVE to go on my master bed sit endlessly on the floor in the corner of my master bedroom: TALK AMONGST YOURSELVES. My only consolation is that I did read somewhere for allergy sake that leaving your bed unmade allows it to air out and get rid of the bed bugs..........versus making it up nice and tight with the moisture there for the bed bugs to feed on the old dead skin cells and reproduce at mass rates. UH Gross! Why did I just burst the bubble of all of you bed makers in the world? Just some food for thought, no pun intended. Anyways, I guess that I shall never change my ways. My friend actually suggested getting a decorative holder for my pillows. HAHAHA. What is the decorating world going to think of that. Maybe I could patent the whole idea. A wrought iron decorative pillow holder that looks great with or without the pillows, depending on the mood of your day (Lazy or not lazy) Ok . I am rambling and that is only because I am trying to block out Blake's terrlble attempt at practicing his piano for 40 min. He manages to leave and get a drink, play with the dog, go to the bathroom, and actually play his lesson for 20 minutes. Such is the life of a mom!

HAHAHAHAHHAHA Im peeing my pants right now. That was great and Im eating some 2 foot long twizzlers thanks to you!!:)
You are so funny Christina -I love your sense of humor!
Hey Christina - I saw you blog on Tracey's blog - how goes it? So what camps are your kids in??? We are planning on putting Tucker in tackle this fall - let us know what you plan on doing with blake - see ya - andi
Glad to hear about the advantages to not making your bed - I need some good excuses, I rarely make mine! You are too funny Christina!
Christina - About the camera, I have a little canon cybershot but don't use it all that much. My canon EOS 20D with a decent lens is my favorite, not totally practical but takes great pics. I know a lot of people that have the nikkon & they love it, I think they are very comparable. Also, my mac has editing & any pictures I put on my blog or use @ my house I edit edit them & it makes a world of difference! Good luck trying to figure out which route to go
Christina, I love your thoughts...that makes me think again about making my bed!
THanks for your kind, wise words on my blog about Lucy. I love to be able to relate.
We saw your gorgeous "cabin" with the Williams last week. Man you are going to really enjoy that place!
Cute blog! I am excited to see what you are up to. Next time you come to St. G -- I'll show you some more sites. For example --- the white piano that HSM2 used while filming. It's tucked somewhere special -- even Dale would appreciate it. Have fun in Midway -- maybe we'll hook up.
oh --- fyi. Sent an e-vite to my blog. But just in case, smacdonald@beyondbb.com and smacfam.blogspot.com
