ALL I WANTED WAS A NEW KITCHEN!!!!!!!!!!!

A friend of mine sent this my way today, knowing very well that I would adore it.

Though the content has nothing to do with it at all, it reminds me of a modern-day “Little Rascals” where the children act like ” adults”.

THIS IS hysterical…. Thank you to the people who made this video.

All I wanted was a New Kitchen!

ENJOY!

REALLY good Halloween Costume

Forgotten Songs..

Recently while listening to a certain song, (which shall remain nameless for now) I suddenly got the Kenny Loggins hit ” I’m Alright” stuck in my head. You know the theme song from Caddy Shack? ( CLASSIC, and up there with Christmas Vacation)

What a great fricken SONG!

“I’M ALRIGHT”

All The Single Ladies!

If you have not seen the incredible youtube video of the little boy who can jam you must watch! CLICK HERE

This kid has some SERIOUS moves!  Back when my daughter was 4 months old her aunt ( “titi”) came over with the bright idea to dress the baby in a crazy outfit and make her dance like a puppet to “All the Single Ladies”.(Beyonce’s new hit). Though we thought it was hysterical, overall it is pretty stupid. lol

MONTHS later, this little dancing king comes out and the videos have the same title! So all of a sudden people are clicking on our puppet dance and now it has over 20,000 views. Check it out!  Ava’s Video

Haiku BBQ @ Arlene’s Grocery November 12th

So I am kinda sorta an honorary member of this rock band called “Haiku BBQ”. Long story short, I performed with them for a charity event back in June and they have asked me to learn more of their songs, put my thoughts and imput into the collaboration of some new songs and to once again join them on the stage for a set at Arlene’s Grocery on November 12th at 10pm. All proceeds go to the Garden of Dream’s foundation which is an incredible cause.

Here is a clip from our show at Arlene’s back in June… I was a total rookie and though I am proud of what I had accomplished with them in such a short time, I am even more eager to get back on that stage and nail it! YouTubeVideo

At the end of June we performed for 170 people at Connolly’s Bar in Midtown – This was an Epic Advertising event called “ Epic Rocks for Charity” where we raised money for St Jude’s Children’s research Hospital.

I hope you will join us once again at Arlene’s in a few weeks to raise money for yet another worthy cause!!!

Miss Cranky Pants

Now I might sound like I am full of “bologna” here but my daughter really isn’t a cranky baby and BOY do I know how blessed I am. She is easy-going and happy and a dream for a first child. ( she sleeps…) SEE PHOTO……

Last night at a co-worker’s birthday party I had a few vodka soda’s. Today I feel like poo and it is like she knows I am hung over and tired and is turning the dial to high on the cranky meter.

Perhaps we should tackle the fact that once upon a time I was able to drink several vodka soda’s and even (dare say it… sorry mom) do a few shots without even feeling the pinch of illness or exhaustion the next day. Now, post baby I am a light weight who gets hammered off 2 glasses of wine!

That being said, after 2 DRINKS… thats right 2 ( very strong) drinks… I am pooped today and praying for my happy happy easy going baby to come out to play.

So far this morning I was greeted with a giant poop that she squirmed and screamed over and then put her heel in… sweet. I got Cheerios, plums and a bottle thrown at my head and she refused to “walk” anywhere around the house as she wants to be held. In addition, my dog threw up all over the floor after ripping apart the trash for the 10th time…. LOL

I am sure its teething but the timing seems all too perfect on her part… don’t you think?

Do you ever feel like your 1-year-old is on to you? Like, they know a secret that you don’t?

If you do… YOUR NOT ALONE!

Was he Drunk?

Every day on my way to work I ride the PATH train into the city.  The ride is unsettling sometimes as the tram-car’s sway back and forth noisily on the track making the passengers queasy and uncomfortable. Some days I do ponder how safe my commute is as well as the simple fact of whether the conductor has had one to many.

This morning I missed my train and cursed myself for taking the extra 5 min to straighten my already pin straight hair. When I arrived at the 33rd station and the doors opened, to my shock there were people in stretchers and fire men all over.  Several passengers sit side by side on the benches on the track in neck braces and caution tape decorated the platform. The conductor pulled in a little to fast and hit the bumper on the track going about 5 – 7 mph.

Naturally the unsuspecting passengers flip-flopped all over the each other causing injury and distress. 13 passengers  had minor injuries but what a TERRIBLE way to start your day! The frustration I was feeling for being 10 minutes late quickly vanished…

Once again I stepped onto the streets of Manhattan filled with gratitude… I am grateful for having not been on that train, grateful that my daughter clung to my leg before I left for work for a few extra moments, grateful that I have faith that I am where I am supposed to be in my life physically and metaphorically and finally I am grateful for the guardian angels I have ( both living and deceased).

Share the love…
