#1's Nightmare

I was all set to post a blog about #1's move into her house but I decided to do this one instead. 

It was only a week ago when our #1 moved into her adorable house with her two roommates.  She had to arrive early because she had to help her sorority prepare for Rush.  Usually, I hear from her every day but a few days had passed and I hadn't heard from her -- I wasn't alarmed though because I knew how time consuming Rush can be.  We'd been getting sporadic texts telling us how tough her week was and how being a sorority girl is not easy.

So this AM the Mister and I received this e-mail from #1.  I write this verbatim.

#1 Sorority Girl

Good day

Sorry I haven't contacted very often.  They take away our phones most of the day.

Started recruitment yesterday and it's actually really fun.  Tell you deets (details) soon but having a good time.

Had a terrible dream that you two were getting divorced and I was so mad I keyed your cars.

my response:

Dear #1,

So glad you are having such a good time!  So strange that you had a nightmare about Dad and me last night because I actually had a dream about you.  I had a dream that you finished your degree in four years!

So I'll make you a deal, I promise that your nightmare doesn't happen if you can make my dream come true!

xxoo,
Mom

Sista Chat - Take 1

Me: Hello??

Sista: Guess who I just had lunch with?

Me: I hate these games, and I'm busy watching a Real Housewives marathon --  just tell me.

Sista:  No... I'm driving back from NYC so you have an hour to guess.

Me: OK... Bethany?

Sista: Noooo...  close though...

Me: Jillzarin???

Sista: No.. I'm sure she's in the Hamptons with Bobby.

Me:  Okay, I give up.  If you don't tell me I'm hanging up.

Sista:  Okay .. I can't stand it any longer either...TREAT WILLIAMS!!!!!

Me:  Treat Williams?  First of all, I can't believe you recognized him AND remembered his name!  You are the worst with celebrity names!  And how is that guess "close" to Bethany?

Sista:  doesn't matter.....

Me: So - you actually sat with him? 

Sista: close enough... 2 tables away.

Me: and YOU actually recognized him yourself? 

Sista: after I heard him introduce himself to the next table...

Me: so you didn't actually have lunch with him.

Sista: you're just jealous....gotta go...I've got to make some more calls to spread the big news...

***For those of you young things that don't know who Treat Williams is ...

IT'S A WRAP! dress

Many A few years ago, back in high school, I got my first Diane von Furstenberg black and white wrap dress.  I think that still is my very favorite dress that I have ever owned.  I had a school uniform during the week and this DVF dress as my weekend uniform.  I think my mother finally had to throw it out while I wasn't looking when the pits rotted out.

Anyway, many years later, the wrap dress is still  my favorite style dress.  It is definitely the most flattering style for my height-challenged ab-less body type.

  Diane... my style icon

 Great blue!

 

LOVE! LOVE! this one

Great print and style



If I had her figure and her face I would be her twin!
