Catching Up....

I had so much fun this past weekend! I haven't been skiing in 3 years, but you would never have known that, LOL! I kept my record, and didn't fall once... OK, it's really just a record of 2 trips in a row, but I didn't fall! YAY! We went to Peek N Peak in New York and stayed in a beautiful condo. I thought I was going to kill Nate, right off Sat morning, as we first got our gear on and headed to the wrong lift. We didn't realize it was the wrong lift till we were on it and were above all the black diamonds and upper intermediate hills. Did I mention I hadn't been skiing in 3 years? I really wanted to refresh myself on the bunny slopes and hit lower intermediates first... ahhh.... no such luck. It took us 3 ski lifts and 457 heart attacks before we found our way back to the bunny slope. The kids we were with had a good time, and I was really impressed with how well some of them did right off.

Nate and I are now talking about getting all of our own equipment! We are so close, and we both love it, so now we are doing a bit of research on skis and such.

I did pretty good being without my Little Man for the first time. I only called home 3 times, and every time Gramma said that Sethro was just fine. Apparently that was completely true, because when we came home, he would have nothing to do with me.

I am heartbroken over this! I am always his favorite! However yesterday he reached for Daddy, then back to Gramma... and just willfully ignored me. This has painfully extended to this morning, and he is still favoring his dad, and not wanting me one iota. That really hurts!

I have some neat news! We all know that The Sweet Shoppe opened last week, and I was happy to participate in opening day by purchasing a few kits. I picked up Sara Carling's Funky Phresh, Christy Lyle' s Only You, Sweet Mindy's First Blossoms, and the Designers Quarterly. Well, unknowingly I was entered into a raffle, and I got an email from Robin telling me that I won the big prize of $50! To anywhere I wanted! I was so psyched! I never win anything! So I requested to split up my prize, and I went $40 towards Amazon.com and I kept $10 for The Sweet Shoppe.

So last night during the superbowl, I went shopping! I spent it all, and bought PS CS2's One Click Wow, a Flash Diffuser for my SB600, and a book by my one of my fave authors.

The book is Vanishing Acts by Jodi Picoult. I love Jodi Picoult! If you want a great read, I suggest ANYTHING by her! This new book is her latest in paperback, and I am so excited!

OK, I better close, as I have probably lost most of you by now. Here is something I want you to see.... and I hope to see all of you there! Come say Hi!!
