Friday Fragments

I've missed fragging you the past few weeks... hope I remember how ....


Updates on everyone:



Erik is now choosing to walk as often as he crawls... and he has the bruises to prove it


Liam is back to his obsession with the movie CARS.... we got away from it for a few months while the disk was 'lost', but it got found and now I have the theme song running through my head constantly...


Robyn is heading back to school in less than a week... so I've been waking her up before noon every day this week... neither one of us are really looking forward to that first week back, at least the mornings...


She also had her first surfing lesson this week and has decided that she's happy as a body surfer for now - she doesn't have the upper body strength to 'pop' up onto the board and came home more bruised and battered than she expected... luckily the lesson was a groupon buy so she got to try it out before I committed a tonne of $$.


Wayne got the chance to get away from us for a quick overnight trip to Atlanta to check out the how they're organizing the PGA Championship next year, since he is going to be co-chair of the corporate suites at next year's PGA championship held out at Kiawah... I would totally have gotten more out of the event... but he said he had some fun...


As for little old me, I have rejoined the MOMS Club after taking a short sabbatical - and I'm really enjoying connecting with old friends and meeting new ones... I missed getting together with other mommies... it didn't hurt that both events we went to this week were pool parties... 


One thing that I learned about heading to the pool this week is that I've lost more weight than I thought I had.. none of my swim suits fit... nice problem to have, except that I can't find a new suit I like at the end of season sales...


I also have learned that I really haven't gotten back to blogging... so many plans, so little time... but I will have new giveaways up shortly!


I am also going to make a plea... I am 301 twitter fans shy of 3000 - and once I hit 3000, I will be randomly drawing one twitter follower's name to win a $15 Amazon GC!  So if you're not a twitter follower yet, please consider heading over and following me at http://twitter.com/#!/chascouponmom


Onto other fragments running around in my mind:


Still trying to solve the mystery of why the laundry multiplies but the socks divide... 


I'm so over the heat/humidity in Charleston right now - I went out to get the mail and came back in as a giant sweat ball... a little relief would be great


My least favorite characters in CARS are Mini and Van... they drive me nuts


A friend just posted this as her Facebook status and it made me smile:
Overheard in San Antonio.5 yr old boy: I want to see the Elmo.Mother (exasperated, like she'd said it 10 times): it's not the Elmo. It's the ALAMO.
I am being called back to the kids, so I'll leave it at that... but I suggest that you check out the other wonderful fragments left at:
