the weekend

So…did you have a nice weekend?

I happened to watch ‘Black Swan’ last night with a friend…..and….um….

i just want to say….

IT’S.NOT.AT.ALL.WHAT.I.EXPECTED

there…i said it….it was dark…and weird…but i still love Natalie Portman.

I love to go to the movies…and normally i go by myself…yes…i do.

Every once in a while i go with a friend or bryan…but i’d rather go out with my friends when we can

sit and chat over a glass of wine…so normally i tend to go to the movies solo.

And you know what….

it’s not a big deal….

i’ve been doing it for years.

But i’m really glad i went last night with a friend because i really needed someones hand to hold.

Have you seen any good movies lately? I really liked ‘Kings Speech’….that was really good.

I liked ‘The Tourist’….because i really like J.D.

But after watching the ballerina’s dance last night….in which we both thought we were going to

see a movie about dancing….even though i knew it was supposed to be a little dark…

it was not at all what i expected….

but still…..

i will be signing up for a ballet class this morning…

and i want to have legs that look like that…

and i know you can only eat grapefruit and maybe a boiled egg for breakfast…

and maybe just maybe…..

you can have a bite of a lettuce leaf for lunch…

but i want legs like that.

I don’t want toes like that though.

No……i’ll pass on the broken ugly toes….and i’ll pass on seeing a chiropractor that sticks

her hand into your diaphragm to get your ribs back in place.

That stuff…i’ll pass on.

But the legs….i want the legs.

Anyhoo…..back to the weekend.

I did some crafting with the kids…yes….i know.

I really love Valentines day…so i need to start hanging some hearts around here.

That photo at the top of the page…that’s fin’s friends…and they are besties.

Fin has a lot of girl friends…but she’s his fav at the moment.

She also broke her fingers last week after their karate class…..and they got caught when the car

door shut….but i just thank god it wasn’t my car…because things like that would probably happen to me.

She’s fine….but she had a hard time at bingo on Thursday night.

Yes…you read that right.

Hello my name is Kasey and i take my kids to bingo.

It’s actually quite fun…..it’s at a local pizza place…and they have peanuts on the table that you

can throw the shells on the floor.

I don’t recommend going if you are allergic to peanuts though….

not a good idea.

I don’t carry an epi pen in my purse…so don’t show up if you are allergic.

But…if you are NOT allergic to peanuts…then it’s really fun. The kids use their peanuts to cover the numbers

and us moms order a pitcher or two of beer and chat while the kids play bingo.

It’s almost like homeschooling because the kids are learning their numbers…and letters at the same time.

check check

You all asked some great questions….and i will go back thru them today to see if i missed any.

It was also funny to see my Josh Groban photo made it to his personal fan site..and there was

quite the convo going on over at their twitter site as to whether it was the real deal or not.

Onto other news……in 16 days i am going to have a 10 year old.

I can’t believe i just said that out loud….but i did. That means…i was 13 when i had him.

ahem

ok….maybe i wasn’t really 13…..i might have been 14.

Whatever the number was…..i think i’ll be ok with having a 10 year old.

It’s the little guy i’ll have the problem with. I told him he is

NOT. ALLOWED

to turn 6 this year and that he has to stay 5 forever…and ever…and ever.

I’m going to go cry now.

p.s. Winner of the Gussy bag is: Ashley {domestic fashionista}. Email me.


Josh Groban with some Q & A time

It’s been a really long time since i hosted a Q & A for you all…..

but before we start…i thought i would tell you all about Josh Groban.

I was SO lucky when i boarded the flight to L.A last thursday to be able to sit next to the one and only.

Unfortunately….he slept the entire time….so i wasn’t able to grill him about his personal life at all.

I can tell you a few things though.

He does not have bad breath.

He does not snore.

He drooled just a teeny tinny bit…but it was not bothersome at all. Really.

I even pretended i was asleep also…so that i could lay my head on his shoulder…

and his shoulders are really nice.

Firm….like he might lift weights on occasion.

He has great style….hands down….and his jacket was real leather.

I know that because i kept sniffing it.

I might have even licked it just one time…just to make sure it was the real deal.

He does not smoke.

His hair is really clean and it looks like he washes it regularly. {kinda a must in the industry}

I did notice however that he must use a fake I.D because when i went thru his bag while he was sleeping…

the name on it was not Josh Groban……but i get it….because he needs to keep those weirdo fans from stalking him.

He didn’t wake up till we were literally at the gate and ready to get off….but i did smile at him……

and he smiled back then i told him he has really nice breath.

{I love giving compliments}

He sort of ran off the plane at that point….but like i said…i get it.

He probably had a concert he needed to get to.

Anyhoo…..

back to the whole Q and A day here at the ole blog.

I just thought i would open the lines up today…so if you have a question for me…go for it.

What i’m going to do differently is answer your questions by replying right under it…

that way…every Q is answered and all of you can see it.

But maybe none of you have a question for me…..and i’ll just be here filing my nails.
