Americans for Lunch

Yes folks, I went here...


























... on "business". The Four Seasons, Bora Bora has been on my bucket list since I got my first American Express card. It is everything you dream about and more. From the half-naked french boys who carried my luggage in Tahiti to the half-naked Polynesian dancers at our resort, it was a clothing-optional experience I would recommend over and over again. Random pics...

Check out my beaver!

Bad news - I've been slacking a bit on my blog. Good news - I finally started updating my crafts page. I have tons of stuff to add in the next few weeks. Click here to see my beaver!

Full confession: I've been so sick the last 12 weeks, I haven't logged onto my own website. Pete finally knocked me up again and it's been wretched. I just recently began feeling normal and I'm beginning to find my spunk. Check back in a few days for my new blog, "Mommy drinks because you cry".

A Post-Rapture Fiesta

You may or may not have heard the news about the world ending soon. Again. The 1,872,000 days on the Mayan calendar are officially coming to an end leaving the world wonder, what happens next? Rapture? Apocalypse? Doomsday? (Personally, I think Professor Pedro gave up on the calendar and took up painting.) Whatever. Any which way it all goes down, I’m having a party!!! Actually it’s a fiesta and you’re invited. You can join me poolside December 20 - 21 for margaritas with tiny umbrellas. I'm tying a piƱata over my spa for my fellow drunkards. Hopefully Christ will show up. Maybe he’s already been here and left early due to a low turnout?




Here is my doomsday post just in case I don’t make it:



December 21, 2013

Due to lack of participation on Friday morning, God was forced to postpone the rapture causing heavy delays at the entrance to heaven.

The bad news came shortly after 9:00 AM EST when our planets anxious residents swarmed the internet waves looking for survivors around the globe. After the confusion subsided and loved ones located, officials from NASA release the following statement, “The world is not ending today. These claims are bogus and lack any scientific evidence.” Organized religions around the world are now scrambling to find new doomsday predictions after multiple failed attempts have left mankind asking, “Do I get a refund on my bunker?”

In 2001 the corporate giant known as Islam, planted a virus in the system meant to slow down the rapidly growing consumer base for God’s Planet earth experiment. Prophets are facing recalls in grant money while the experiment continues its downward spiral. Islam was one of many contributing factors in the decision to remove God from our nations schools. Residents of the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico are now gradually moving to exclude him from holidays.

In addition to the glitch, predictions of Xenus spaceships have peeked an all time high, forcing God to come up with a new five year plan. This plan is said to include heavier marketing, severe weather changes and more funding for religious leaders. “Our outlook is optimistic,” says Joel Osteen, a televangelist with little religious training who profits an estimated 40 million dollars annually from his Christian followers. “We are projecting a 10% increase in conversions with a retention rate < 60%.” Osteen who has written several best selling books on popular psychology and religion also claims, "When things go down, like the economy and the natural disasters and things like that, in my position and the field that I'm in, we see our churches go up, because many people do turn to their faith in these difficult times." (True quote).

Bring it on


After years of serious athletic competition, I finally found something I can do better than Pete. Jump. I get my ass handed to me daily at the gym so I've been brushing up at Skywalk preparing to take him out on the trampoline. I’m highly competitive with my current husband. He is highly competitive with me.  He can out-cycle, out-lift, out-drive and out-serve me most of the time. For the record, I am a superior runner. (We ran a two mile treadmill race once but he cheated by looking at my stats. We haven't run together since.) 

Today I invited my ambitious, golf-whoring husband to a jump-off  and he came ready to bring it. Twenty minutes in, he had to sit and rest stop to write important emails. HA!! Check this out below for the cutest picture you will EVER see. And Pete being Superman.
