Work on it. Obviously, more reading and a trip to the Santa Ynez Valley will be needed as well as an appointment to cut off 8-10 inches of my hair. A few of the things I changed are a little bit of a stretch, but it is amazing how little time this planner has with all the cooking and crafting I do.

Now it comes down to planning this shindig. I was thinking about doing a Cocktail Party, something really classy with everyone dressing up. Or go to the opposite end and some sort of themed costume party as I like the costumes, but I need to give people a little more lead time on that.

Also, since I will be out of town for my birthday weekend, I can't decide if I do something small the weekend before (stepping on Best Friend's Husband's birthday) or perhaps something during the evening of the 17th/ during the day of the 18th as that is Good Friday and many should have it off.

Decisions, decisions...

  2. Also, I don't know if you know this, but every time somebody comments, they have to deal with a captcha. If you turn it off, you might get more comments.

  3. Yeah, I don't think I could read it the old school way, you know, with pages and books and stuff. I am listening to it in my car, or while I am cooking. About halfway through as of now.

    I think I fixed the comment thing. Thanks for the heads up!
