VACATION!!!!!
In a few short days i'll be on vacation!!!!! I'm not going anywhere special just a few concerts, sporting events, unpacking/organizing, decorating and a lot of much needed sleep. I might even get a tan. LOL i'm so white i "glow." I know its not good to bake in the sun i just want a little color so people don't need to wear sunglasses around me lol. This friday i have a half day to start my vacation. Tricia and i scored field box seats to the Mets vs. Astros game. Even though T is a yankees fan she supports all new york teams as well :). I love my girlfriend. I never thought i could date a yankees fan let alone introduce her to my parents but alas they have met her and i still have a family and a girlfriend. Monday is spa day! Tricia gave me a day at the spa in darien. I can't wait. Wednesday we have the Melissa Etheridge concert in NYC!!!!!! I haven't been to nyc in so long i miss it. We are going to try and catch a play sometime this year but with how much concert tickets cost these days it really puts a damper on who/what we see. SUCKS!!! I can't believe Aerosmith/ Motley Crue tickets are $125 and lawn are $50. I mean w.t.f.? Then that friday we have a CT SUN game. GO SUN! We have to save up for play off tickets as well. Its like this whole summer is saving for just a hand full of expensive events vs. the normal carefree summer filled with affordable concerts. Remember when lawn tickets at the meadows were only $25? What happened to those days? Between the yankees vs red sox game, the ct sun tickets and the M.E. concert a grand is out the window. There is so much i want to get done on my vacation that the week will probably fly by. The end of the week i'm having my hair "did". Color cut same ole same ole.
Today is Grace's 6th bday. I took her and her sister to Friendly's for a banana split. Their 1st banana split. The ice cream didn't even have a chance to melt. The girls downed it. I can't believe she is 6 years old. She is getting so big right in front of my eyes. To think just a few years ago she couldn't talk and was learning how to walk. It was just me and grace until a few months later when Tess came along. I feel old! I need to scan the old baby pics i have of them and start making an album. One more year left to my contract and no more Krissy needed. It makes me sad to think that my girls won't need me anymore. They want to keep me as long as possible, which is great and all, but i want to go back to school and start a career. I just can't imagine not watching them grow. They're like my own.
It's been sweltering out. I just hope we have power when i get home! I like the sound of that "home." It really does feel like a home. Finally!!!
