i made it to the next round of mm idol … the top 25!

if you watch suite life of zach and cody you’ll know this phrase from the famous london tippten … "yay me"!!! i’m sad to see that 5 of the talented gals had to leave us this week. and next week will be hard … because 10 are being cut. so keep watching and placing votes. and i also want to thank you for your votes and all the nice emails and comments i’ve been getting … i totally appreciate it!

next challenge is up and i really need to get started right away. this friday i took the day off so that dina and i (and anyone else that wants to come with) can head out to the scrapbook expo. they moved the dates around this year … this one has always been in august, but for whatever reason it’s in march now. we’re signed up for a rusty pickle class about girlfriends … hoping mr. rusty pickle himself is teaching. i hear he’s great. i can’t even remember the last time i took a class.

then saturday we have opening day for softball. only sarah is playing this year … alyssa’s still doing the year-round soccer. i’m not even sure if there’s a ceremony of some sort like last year. there’s also pictures and her first game. gotta see if joe can help out with getting her there (he has to work the whole weekend) … because i also have a baby shower that i want to try and make it too. and then we have to get alyssa to a sleepover birthday party. and i’m heading to dina’s for a crop … i’ve been to one crop in my entire scrapbook days (about 11 yrs). not even sure what i’d work on … i don’t even have a fancy big bag to pack things in. lol! but looking forward to socializing and getting out.

so that means i should really have my challenge for this week done before friday. that way i don’t have to stress about it or get stuck in a panic on sunday trying to meet the deadline! lol!

well … i’m beat tired tonight. today was a long day. and it’s been hot outside here … in the low 80’s. which stinks because my house at this moment (at 8:50pm) is a lovely 80 degrees. the house cannot be 80 degrees. the nice thing is i’m not running my heater … but then again we all know how much running the air conditioning costs (remember my $425 bill last summer). lol!
