The Good...The Bad...No Ugly

I feel like I owe you all some updates...I suppose I got some good news...I got some bad news:P

The good news. Our commercial submission made the final round!!! Yay...how cool is that? They will be announcing the winner on June 30. So keep your fingers crossed, and if you feel like clicking the fifth star on YouTube...that'd be great too (but'cha don't have to)

Now then...the not exactly bad news, but not so good news...The Flash Dance is proving to be quite a challenge:( It seems if I can get the dancers there, I can't get the camera men there...if I can get the camera men there, I can't get the dancers there:P We were going to go for Tues. Now, I have changed it to Friday at 5:30.

Bottom line, if I don't get at least 25 confirmed "yes", we are not a go:( It really bums me out, and quite frankly...I don't know what else I can do. Send good vibes for Friday. Hopefully at 5:30, we will be filming a choreographed routine downtown...Bah!

I Can't Be the Only One

So, I'm sitting here watching Brother's and Sister's. I feel like a loser typing that:P Every week I watch it, and every week I say to Husband "Why do I watch this drippy, whiney show?" (Sissy, I know you watch it too...so I'm not the only one:P)

Anyway, the mopey Colista Flockhart character is all "Oh, woe is me...I'm married to Rob Lowe, but I'm having an emotional affair with hot single dad guy in the park:("

My only question is..."She adopted a baby like, two episodes ago...and she already has a person to hang with?!?"..."and he's a hot guy!?!"

Now I've been at this Stay at Home Mom gig for over three years now...and I have yet to make one real friend...in the park, or anywhere! I love my Husband, don't get me wrong...I'm just asking..."Where's my cool person to hang with at the park?"..."heck, I'd settle for someone who wasn't a nanny...strike that, I'd settle for someone who just spoke English!"

That's it...I'm moving to TV Land!

I owe you all updates...I'm going to try to get to it tom. I meant to get to my Blogger Can be Cool series (would you believe the blogger I was showcasing went and quit blogging?). I need to regroup on that series...I think I'll just use test sites...not sure.

As far as my new BFF girl...I am off to email her right now. We've had a couple play dates. I can't tell if the Weather Gods know something I don't. Every time we set something up, the flood gates open, and Noah floats down the street in his arc...I'll keep you posted.

Believe It!

Do you know what this is? This is my 25 lb bird in my oven! I got the darn thing to work...yay! I think it's my ovens swan song. You know, wanted to end on a high note. Seriously, I 'bout hit the floor when it turned on. I finally got my Thanksgiving dinner...two days late, and it was yummy:P
Other than that, I have been buried in illustrating all weekend. I am so behind on everyone's blogs...and the guilt is killing me! Here's a quick look at one of the projects I finished over the weekend...Isn't she a cutie?!? I illustrated this for Spoiled Mommy, and I was so happy with the turnout:) I'm feeling better...the bird has been cooked...I'm just about up on my project work...Now, I'm off to catch up on everyone (it may take a day or two)...

Updates, and a Wordless...

******The contest is the next post down...scroll baby, scroll!********
Well, you know how we were keeping our fingers crossed? You can uncross them now. I really can't believe how stupid things have become. Landlady woman and nice girls had been negotiating, and for a moment, it looked like they were going to get to move in. Again, not to be. After much haggling back and forth between the two sides, Landlady finally agreed to let them move in...then they back out. Someone had to move home, someone got sick, I don't even know. Landlady then calls me and says if I want to find new renters who would be willing to sign an 18 month lease, but move out after 6 months if she decides to rehab, or sell...that would be fine with her! So, to make a very long story short, I am right back where I started...I really have nothing left to say on the topic, and I am sure you are sick of hearing about it. We will probably just have to pay out four months of rent...suck! I suppose that's what you get when you rent from crazy...
On the upside, we did close on our house last week. Man what a pain in the patoot that is! Glad it's over. It really is a lovely place, still in the city (farther in, if that's possible). I showed it to my friend Sissy, she said it felt like a "bunker". To tell you the truth, that's what I love about it. I have found during my many years in the big city, that it really matters to have a place you feel safe in. I never felt safe in the house we sold, I feel safe in this place. Move day is next Monday...Can't wait to have that over with...
