Oh y'all...I'm in bloggy withdrawal. I have flashes of inspiration and swirls of amusing thoughts that are crowding my mind. What's taking precedence, however, is an ever-expanding to-do list.
Saturday morning is JBB's 6th Birthday Party. We are hosting 14 children plus their parents. I am hoping it will be a good time had by all. I have to confess that I am nervous about it since I am not one of those women who just effortlessly hosts large groups of people every other weekend. You know those women...the kind who have at least five sets of dishes plus every kind of guest towel you can imagine. At this point, I will feel rather accomplished if we have plates with two super-heroes on them.
So, wish me luck. Saturday afternoon, if I'm lucky, I'll have a very exhausted and happy JBB and Pretty Girl, and I'll curl up with my beloved laptop and catch up on all of your fabulous blogs. I miss y'all.

Good luck with your party! I'm sure it will be fabulous! Have a great weekend :)
Best wishes to JBB for a very happy birthday and to you for entertaining success. You are so charming and warm that I feel quite certain that everyone will have a marvelous time.
When you mentioned those women with 5 sets of dishes.. I immediately thought of my mom. I thought she was the only one who had such an enormous collection!
Happy Birthday to JBB! Good luck with the party - I know it will be fabulous!
A wise woman who is a great hostess once said that all that matters is you make people feel welcome and you don't seem stressed. No one cares about the dishes or towels. Just offer them a cold drink and a smile. Good luck!
Good luck, I am sure it will be a great birthday party!!
Have a great party! I know you'll be a great hostess! What a lucky little boy you have!
No worries. Remember, some of those women who own all the dishes drink themselves to sleep every night. Not all, but some. That knowledge can reduce the nervousness they can cause us all. Happy Birthday to your little guy. Mine is sitting at the kitchen counter reading a forum on basketball. Oh yeah, wait, he's 19 now.
have fun! your absence is noticed!!
Good luck with that!! I'm sure it'll be great. :)
We find ourselves struggling to keep up as well Miss Lipstick, hopefully things will calm down for both of us soon!
Sending you a smile,
