A Day in My Life – Part 3
It's been a crazy day! But now I'm at my very first PR cocktail party and I'm pretty stoked. I have no clue what to expect and I'm a little nervous. Plus, I've just realized these boots are KILLING my feet. But I power on. I walk through the lobby of the hotel and happen upon my hostesses. They are so nice!! We chit chat for a while and they send me up in the elevator to the event. So far this is pretty swanky. I'm used to chauffeuring my daughter around to dance lessons and swim class. Not ...
A Day in My Life – Part 2
Well after the whirlwind of the morning I am exhausted! I normally don't stop for coffee but this morning I must. And my drink of choice?? Caribou's milk chocolate turtle mocha. If the caffeine doesn't work all the sugar should! But if I do need a pick me up I always go the Caribou by my office. They have the nicest barista! I just love her to pieces. Even though I only come in every so often she knows me and my drink. I really enjoy our morning banter. Now I have my coffee and it's time to ...
A Day in My Life – Part 1
I get comments all the time how people wish they could do what I do. Blog. Well it's not as glamorous as everyone thinks. So I thought I would share what a day like was for me. Here we go! 5:00 am the alarm sounds. My first thought is - Didn't I just go to sleep? And who in the world thought 5 am would be a good time to get up? Well, of course it was me. I thought 5 am would be a great time to get up. There's so much to do! And I was too tired to stay up any later last night so I thought ...
The Good Dinosaur
Last week Peyton and I went to a sneak peak of The Good Dinosaur. And I must say I have mixed emotions about the movie. On one hand I thought the animation was beautiful but on the other hand I felt like the ending was extremely unsatisfactory. I did not feel it was tied up nicely. It's like the writer just stopped, went for a coffee and never came back to finish it off. So what's the story line? Arlo, The Good Dinosaur, and his family live on a farm, Arlo's family consist of himself, 2 older ...
