I'll Play...

After reading Kelly's blog today (http://kellybryan.typepad.com/a_fine_line_between_chaos/) I want to join in with my 6 Random facts...

1. Right now I'm in the middle of reading 5 books:
*How to Digitally Photograph Anything (super fab book that explains so much on photography and I love that it explains everything with pictures not just words)
*Summer Sisters by Judy Blume (my book club book and one of my absolute favorites)
*Some Like It Haute - Just a fun read that I'm actually almost finished with. It's my bed time book because I only read it in bed.
*Knockout by Vikki Lamotta and Thomas Hauser - This is my work book so I get to read it on my breaks and during my slow times (and mostly when I need a break from school work).
*Breakfast With Tiffany: An Uncles Memoir - A book I'm just starting to read in my downtime at home.

2. I'm currently obsessed with all the crystal light packets that you put in bottled water and make a juice. Instead of coffee in the morning I'm drinking these juices and I love them because they are practially no calories, sugar free, and I feel good about getting some water in my body because I know I don't drink enough water!

3. We have a wedding coming up this weekend and I can decide which is a bigger problem - not having a dress to wear for the wedding or still not having a baby sitter lined up for eli yet...YIKES!!!!

4. I've totally fallen off the weight watchers wagon...I'm not even trying anymore and I don't know what my problem is. I've put back on a bit of weight that I lost from when I became a lifetime member but right now I just don't care! I'm more interested in eating yummy food than thinking about my weight loss/lifestyle change. I know that I really need to start back up again because I want to be back down to my lowest weight for the cruise at the end of August but I just can't push myself to do it. I need to find my motivation from within...

5. I've been a scrapbooking fool lately. I even went to Cord on National Scrapbook Day and spend about $80 on new scrapbook supplies which felt great. I needed some new supplies and new pictures to help me get inspired and it definitely worked! I have been working on mini books and new pages for a minimum of an hour a day (and I've been done with my Week in the Life Album since the weekend after we got back from CKU). It just feels great...

6. I feel like I've been a horrible friend to everyone lately. I don't take enough time for the girls and feel like it takes me forever to get back to everyones phone calls and emails. There is not enough time in the day these days...between work, school, family, errands, and me time I'm not making enough time for all the other people in my life. I've almost felt like I've become a recluse because I don't see anyone but the people I work with and Mike and eli anymore... Plus time escapes me - this weekend between the wedding and mothers day we have no free time and then the following weekend we are flying to Philly for Jenny's graduation from Law School plus when we get back I have to leave the airport to go right to a baby shower and then before I even realize it will be June! So to all of my wonderful girlfriends - I'm so sorry I've been such a bad friend - truly I am. I'm promising myself to make more time for you and to be better about my emails and phone calls! I love you all and please know that I'm always here for you if you are ever in need (even if it seems like I'm not around - I am)!

Don't worry about your girlfriends...you know we're always here (and I'm guilty of being swamped and bad at returning calls/emails lately, too). Just get through this crazy period and then hopefully things will slow down. I'm thinking of you!
