Erasure and stuff

Happy Friday ya'll!!! Soooo glad its the weekend.  I have a busy weekend but it beats working, right?! Tonight I am going to the Erasure concert with my best friend from high school.  I loved loved Erasure in the 80's early 90's.  I am excited to see them live tonight.  We went for the cheap lawn seats to just chill and enjoy.  I'm hoping there's a breeze tonight. 
Tomorrow we are going to Todd's cousins house for a harp recital.  She is very well known in the Harp world and is traveling to Australia in a few weeks to play a few shows there. Tomorrow is a preview of what her performance will be Down Under.  She played at our wedding and it was so special.  Most of the day i'll be cleaning my house to prepare for a Church lady swimming party Lets get cool by the Pool theme.
After church on Sunday, I am having all the church ladies ( so far only 13 RSVP'd) over for some Mexican food and a dip in the pool from 1 to 4.  Its a time to get connected and relax before school starts and its adults only.  Next week our church is hosting a family day at the lake so everyone is getting babysitter and enjoying some adult time around the pool for my event.  I am looking forward to really meeting some ladies that I see weekly bud don't really know them.  I am serving beef taco meat and grilled chicken to make tacos, nachos or salad.  I'm also making a corn dip which is so good!  Others are bringing rice, beans, desserts etc potluck style.
Never a dull moment but I really don't mind always being on the Go.  There are plenty days that I do just sit and veg on the couch so....
Whatcha got going this weekend?  Have fun and be careful!


Here are some Erasure songs that I enjoy:
Chains of love


Chorus
Oh LaAmour

Outdoor stuff

Hey everyone- Happy August!! I cant believe July is already gone and i didnt make a single post the whole month. I have been so crazy busy at work that i have had no time to blog. Its conversion time again and so i'm training twice a day everyday for a few weeks. In fact, due to my schedule, i'm having to take my lunch hour at 10:30 am which is weird for me.
Well, August 5,2011 - i started this blog. I missed my anniversary this year. I should have posted. I dont want to give up blogging. I'm holding on to thought of things easing up eventually.
Its been a sad time lately. My dear friends little boy Ari passed away last month. Todd and i were driving back to Dallas from Houston after attending a funeral for Todds uncle Larry. I started reading Facebook and read post that Ari had passed. I cried and cried and cried. I just really felt that Ari was meant to live and do great things.
Ive been trying to get my patio completed but its still work in progress. I have a few things left to do and it will be done. I got a new obsession over the summer and thats buying old seashell plant holders. Oh gosh i love them! I paid too much for a few of them but i love them.
I also have had fun making doll head planters from old vintage porcelain dolls i've bought from thrift stores. I was going to buy some off Etsy and then thought to myself, i can do this!!
Right now i have a few things i'm looking forward to- we're having an end of summer labor day pool party on the Sunday before labor day, then i have a junk show at end of September and then Holliween of course is coming soon and i am already prepping for that.
I had gallbladder surgery around the time the spring junk show was and i had to cancel because i couldnt lift anything. Im excited for next month!!
Thats all I can manage to post today.  Talk to yall later!  Have a great day.
