for at least a month or so. We had the boys soccer meetings last night for their competitive soccer teams. And I ended up volunteering yet again. I wasn’t going to – after last weekend I needed a serious break, but at lunch yesterday a friend told me how they were going to be short help so I went and helped from 6-9:30. We have Caelie’s soccer meeting tonight but I’m not going. I’ve got a ton of stuff to get done for this weekend – I’ve got a Cookie Lee show that I’ll be doing on Friday night at a friends house and then I’m hosting a Thirty-One Gifts party here on Saturday night. Plus, the Verizon guy is coming tonight because we lost our phone Tuesday. We had a really bad thunder storm and since then our phone’s been dead. They say they’ll be here today between 3 and 6. Love it when they do that! It’s 4:40 now and they’re still not here.

in a few minutes to meet the same friends that I hung out with last night. We’re going to Chili’s.

Had so much fun last night. Kieran’s concert was so cute. It was a Sesame Street theme and he was just adorable. It only lasted 20 minutes though so I was off to my friends house earlier then I thought. And it was a fun night filled with lots of laughs. A friend of ours just started selling Thirty One so a bunch of us are having parties for her (myself included) to help her get her business up and running. I got home around 12:30.

We’ve already made lunch plans for Cinco DeMayo next week too. Can’t wait!!!!!

It’s been raining all day today since about 8am this morning and it’s lovely!!!! We need this rain so badly. The unlovely part was the weather this morning at 9am when the kids were getting on the bus. We had a tornado touch down in our town not too far from here and I’m guessing the time it touched down was the time we were at the bus stop and garbage cans were literally flying by my car (BIG garbage cans too). It got really scary here for a while. I came home from getting the kids on the bus (which next time I’m just driving them to school if it’s ever like that again) and I could hear my dog howling as I got out of my car - even with the wind and thunder outside.

It was one of those days you’d love to curl up on a couch with coffee, a blankie and a good book. But, I had plans. Good plans though (had they not been good ones I would have canceled for sure). I was going to go and run errands after the kids left for school but because of the weather I decided against that. I did go out and have lunch with my friends though. There were 6 of us and we had a blast – as always. I love these ladies!!!! They’re so laid back, down to earth, tell you like it is. Most of the time we talked about soccer – of course. But we talked about other stuff too like Cookie Lee (of course, since my boss and fellow teammate/co-worker were there). My other friend just signed up to sell a new product called Thirty-One (I think) and we talked about that. I’m going to have a party for her here to help get her going. That’s always the hard part when selling stuff like this – getting started so I’m going to help her out. I know that if she didn’t JUST have a Cookie Lee party a month or so ago she’d help me out and have one too. I think next time we meet they’re all going to come here for lunch – cheaper and more relaxed.

Right now I’m waiting for the phone call from Tristan’s coach saying practice is cancelled for tonight. Sean is pretty sure he’s canceling Caelie’s team practice. The fields have to be a mess and it’s still raining and very windy out there right now. Fingers crossed! It’s one of those nights where you don’t wanna go anywhere!!!
