LEO's RULE

Happy Birthday Mister Arroz!

. . .I am glad we could share your day with you!

Kirkie, the homemade carrot cake was AWESOME!

As for the kids that got to party with us, I feel bad what they are going to take home to tell their parent. . .wah, wah. . .

Complain, Complain, Complain. . . .

I just went to the Outer Banks with a friend of mine, that also happens to be an educator, and experiences the same whoa is me's as I do:

"All I do all summer is pack and unpack, pack and unpack. . . ."
"It is tough being able to go out any night of the week. . .and drink as much as you want."
"In the summer it is hard to keep a regimen. It's basically just eating and drinking!"
(as we were putting on our bathing suits) "It's difficult to keep a nice figure in the summer, with all this eating and stuff. . . "

After the first couple complaints, we made it our weekend joke! "If someone could be a fly on the wall and hear us complaining they would be PISSED!"

LESSON: Summer's off are SOOO hard!! (snicker, snicker. . .)

GeeGee's Birthday ~ Early

GeeGee and I went to Aruba for a week to celebrate his birthday early. He did a great job making sure I didn't get too sloppy, walk home by myself, meet strangers, and disappear (Thanks for all the concerns, my friends. I am glad you have that much confidence in my decision making!)

We had a wonderful time! We understood clearly why everyone looked so healthy and slender. . .The food was OUTRAGIOUSLY expensive (for my taste anyway). We did do quite a lot of the touristy things. . .

* An all day Jeep tour with ABC
* Tattoo dinner boat cruise
* Sailboat ride for brunch and snorkling on the Octopus

The Jeep tour was a little nutty (we shook it like Shakira for 8 hours) going up and down the NO road route. The Tattoo boat cruise was fun. We had dinner, drinks, danced. . .Then, after GeeGee had "enough", the boat anchored for it's last half hour of going down a 3 story waterslide and rope swing into the dark infested waters (no thanks for me. . .no matter how much I have "had"). The sailboat ride was very relaxing. . .sailing, mimosas, breakfast, snorkling, sailing, happy hour, snorkling, lunch, happy hour, swimming, sailing. . . then a nice freshing rainstorm. As soon as the cloud went by, and it stopped raining, the captain played:

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone, I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) Sun-Shiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)Sun-Shiny day

It might have been cheesy, but it made me chuckle out loud! Good times. . . .

Small World

On a tiny little island, off the coast of Venezuela, I found a man, on a tiny little sailboat. On that very day, he happened to be wearing this very shirt:

East Wakefield, NH it said. . . . .

My mother's neighbor gave it to him.

Go to Aruba, and do the brunch/sailing/snorkling cruise on the Octopus! Jethro will take care of you!!
