Modern Mommy:

It's Divorce. Not Cancer.

What I want to know is where are all these successful, well adjusted and normal divorced people?  There are supposed to be like 50% of you happily married couples who are quietly but surely slugging it out behind your lawyer's closed doors.  Would somebody mind spotting me the divorce play-book, I cannot seem to find mine.

Caution: Real Life Ahead

I am still here.  I still read blogs, write for blogs and in general still believe I truly love blogs.  I just cannot find the silly, sarcastic and cynical author of Modern Mommy who is hiding amongst the clutter of real life after a Modern Family crisis.  Here's to hoping you are all still around when I come up for air. 

It Happens

Do you ever start thinking about breathing and then your nose gets stuffy?  Lying there in bed trying to fall asleep and all you can think about breathing in and out?  I start to feel like I cannot get enough air so I have to take a deep breath through my mouth and start over.  I swear my mind actually makes my nose stuffy just to tick me off.  It is like some sort of game and all I have to do is think about something else, really consentrate, and forget about breathing... then my sinuses clear up and i can breathe again.  But now I am not tired cause I was busy thinking so much.

You Might As Well Quit Reading Now

Seriously.  You must be wondering where I find all these people in need of some sort of wedding of vacation planning.  This is my curse in this life.  I do not make any money doing this despite all the desperate pleas from my friends, family and readers to start some home business and quit boring them with my tales.

But here we are again.

This time it is a bridal shower I am planning AND hosting in my home.  The invites, the food, the awful party games.  This is a classy event, far from a drunken bunch of barely dressed women hanging out the window of a huge stretch limo. 

Enter the good old internet and my handy list of wedding related web sites.  I know, I know.  But what would I use for these entertaining and educational blog posts?  So today's spotlight is on weddingneeds dot cceasy dot com.  Another in the list of little treasures I have cataloged for just such an occasion.  No pun intended.

My current theory is that bridal shower invites do not have to be completely boring.  I admit the Nascar wedding in all it's glory was not my idea of fun or modern where the invites were concerned, then again they match the guest bathroom beautifully.  This is probably just another bridal shower, and I certainly cannot promise high society and charm... but ladies I can throw a party.  The latest in my sites to check out when you have some chocolate and time to kill is this one.  And here is the invites I have decided on.  We kind of have a whole purse theme going including the gifts, party favors etc.

So much more on this topic as soon as we throw the shower.  I promise details and plenty of gossip.
