Breaking Dawn... Finally.

Fourth book is out and I have the first 300 pages.  One of my staff knows someone....yadayadayada. 

I cannot wait to delight in all that is Edward.  And Bella.  And Jacob.

This is gonna be so good. 

Have fun this weekend reading.  Let's meet back here on Monday and share.

For those of you who haven't read Twilight.... go get addicted.  Now!

Apparently, I'm missing out on something HUGE with this Twilight series. I'm off to the bookstore this weekend to get started on catching up. :-)

What is Twilight?

Just kidding!!! Not that I've had time to read it, but thanks to you I at least know what it is. My backlog of reading is way too long already, but you all are so crazy about it I might have to get a copy and bump it to the top of my stack. I did see the author on GMA this morning...

Enjoy it!

My name is Carrie and I am real.

Hi Carrie!

Alright, I bought one, two and three. Then I won number four from Shelle at Blok Thoughts and she went on vacation and I can't have the book shipped to me until she gets back from her trip.

Oh, and my name is Carrie and I have issues with anxiety.

Hi Carrie.

And if you could seriously do me a big favor and tell me everything that is in book two in an email, well that would be the greatest thing you could do for a real person.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

You should contact the author and ask for some royalty fees....thanks to you, I just purchased Twilight as well. My teenage goddaughters were just telling me about this series last week. I read all the Harry Potters and loved them....this series isn't too teenage-ish is it? And yes, I just invented the word "teenage-ish." Use it, and use it often.

I have managed to find copies of the books. All I can say is there must be plenty of fans in these parts, because they're as hard to find as hen's teeth !!!!!

You know me I've been counting this book down for sometime now.
I'm going to a party at Barns & Noble tomorrow night with my daughter & I've had the book pre ordered for a few months now so I've got my wristband on & I'm ready.
I'll so be here on Monday!!!
Have a great weekend!

I actually bought the first of those books in the airport years ago and haven't read. I think I am going to dig it out after that recommendation. Thanks. Happy reading.

How did I miss this post? I am a Twilight Mom! I read the first three books in 4 days. What a lucky chica you are. See you on Monday to discuss all that is Edward, Bella and Jacob.

When your phone rings around 10-ish tonight (I'm account for the time difference while I'm in TX) just know I'll probably be squealing and crying and having a cow when you answer.

And you'll understand. You will. Because you KNOW. You know...

I'm so darn excited I can hardly help myself. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

ok, Lula tipped me off, Heather got them on my list of "must-reads", and now you've put them on my "must read now"s. I suppose I'm off to purchase them :)

I am so going to be up all night tonight. One of my teacher friends and I are sneaking off to a Breaking Dawn party in another city so our students don't find us, lol.

I'm gonna be so depressed when I'm done reading, lol. I hate when a series of books is through.

Can't wait to get it...although I might have to read the end first to see if it has the ending I want. I know, I'm bad. But I like happy endings, don't hate me.

My Big News and a $100.

Image
It just dawned on me that I have had some super exciting news that I haven't officially shared! You all know how I feel about the importance of optimism and resiliency in the successes I've had in my life and how important it is to pass those on to my son. Did you know my company is named "Bright Future Managment"? Doesn't get more optimistic than that! A few months ago, I was contacted by a PR firm representing Pepperidge Farm. They were interested in interviewing me for a faculty position for Fishful Thinking , an initiative that offers parents tools for fostering optimism in kids. Now, as the director of one of LA's largest and oldest private summer camps, I get contacted to participate in all kinds of things for kids... usually, I pass, as I want to spend all my free time with my boys. But in this case, the message and the presentation was so incredible, I jumped at the chance and agreed to the interview. Within the first 5 minutes of the interview I wa

OB...No, not another tampon post.

I 'd like to start by proclaiming that I am in madly in love with my husband. In no way does this moment of "gyno-attraction" diminish his hotness and my love for said hotness. Having said that, let's begin. So I feel pretty safe in saying my OB is hotter than your OB. Okay, make that "was", because when we left LA for St. George, I had to leave his glorious, silver, stirrups. But he is worth a post. Trust me on this . Let's start with our first (and only) encounter. It was my 6 week follow up after having The Boy. My regular OB was out of town, so they assigned me to Dr. McHottie. I walked into the room with no idea of what was to come. I got undressed (from the waist down of course) and stuck my feet in the stirrups. Then he walked in. A cross between Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum. In scrubs. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. I got all kinds of flustered and the conversation went something like this. McHottie : "Hello Mrs. R." (Cleverly remin

Blogging for Dollars?

My friend, Melissa , recently wrote this post , expressing her frustration with the small circle of bloggers who seem to be getting all the perks. I read it and left a lengthy comment, then realized I had even more to say. So, here it goes. I have been feeling some stress and increasing negativity in bloggyland lately. Unrest among the masses regarding PR, "A List" (whatever that is) Mommy Bloggers, the lack of money in blogging, etc. I've personally considered withdrawing completely and have spoken to a few other bloggers who are also feeling somewhat "disenchanted" with blogging as of late. It seems to have lost its luster. Here is how I see it: You begin blogging for fun. For connections. For camaraderie. You get a few followers and comments. You want more. You begin to see others talking about the free stroller or set of books. You want that too. Then you hear that some are getting to travel, meet with PR firms, speak at conferences. That sounds fun. You won
