Please bear with me as I move sites, and get everything set up over there.. It will also make it easier for me to write more often… Thanks for being patient with me!

Now, I’m working on a party for my mom, and my sister hasn’t given me the info I’ve been asking for the last 2 weeks. I’m kinda stuck till I know what the heck she’s getting before I can get the rest of the things for the party! I just don’t get it. Why is it so hard? 

Anyway. We’re still trying to move across the country, but the economy has all but killed that idea. 

The GOOD news though, is that my reviews site has been kicked into high gear! I’m loving meeting all of the new people I’ve met so many great people, and I will have the opportunity to meet many of them in person! I can’t wait!

Monkey See and Monkey Do are 3 1/2 yrs old, and have attitudes that won’t quit. Their brains are little sponges that just want to learn everything they can. They’re learning to read and write. Spelling will come with the reading. 

I’ve taken on a client as a Virtual Assistant, and have been having so much fun with it. I’ve learned more than I ever thought I could about market research and so much more. 

It’s the holidays, and things have been very hectic getting ready for visiting family, and preparing to cook Christmas Eve dinner. Not to mention my birthday coming up.. Yes.. my birthday.. I turn 30 in just a few days..  There, I said it.. I’m turning 30… I know, it’s not that bad… but after finding that grey hair a bit ago.. I think it’s actually hitting me… I’m not in my 20’s anymore.  :)

I promise I’m going to keep you updated a lot more in 2009. I’m working on organizing my life, and getting my schedule in order! Lots going on next year, hopefully Mommy Brain won’t set in too badly

If I don’t write again before, Merry Christmas!!! and Happy New Year!!1

I’m so glad, as I’m sure his family is, that he took the time to see her and spend some time with her a couple of weeks ago. Amid all the criticism, people who said “How could he?”, and all those I saw on our local news that were ticked off because he didn’t step off the plane to meet or wave to the crowd when his plane stopped to refuel here in good ol’ Sacramento… Seriously people, what is up with you?? He was concerned about his gravely ill grandmother! I know when I was on my way home, driving, from SoCal, up to Sacramento to see my grandpa who was on life support, even stopping for gas wasn’t on my mind…  All of you should be ashamed of yourself… 

There will be time for him to meet and greet people later!

Now that my site finally looks the way I envisioned and works the way it should, I’m hosting a site-warming to celebrate the official launching of my site.

And like any good party, there’s one heck of a goody bag!

The best part? You don’t even have to attend the party to get the goods. There are loads of ways to participate in the festivities, and a variety of options for how to win the great prizes.

Want to attend the site-warming party?
On Friday, October 17th, all party-goers will tweet up on Twitter at 9:00 p.m. EST for a blogging chat with expert guests to help answer questions, offer advice, and enjoy the fun! Join the party by following her, and then be sure to let me know that you’re with us that night by tweeting @ me.

Just this week, Mommy Brain Reports has been awarded the honor of being a part of Walmart.com’s Money Saving Moms! My profile and links will be up on Walmart.com in the next week or so, but the work has already started! 
I’m going to be  making videos and showing my readers more and more ways to budget better, and make more informed choices when they shop! I’ll still be doing reviews, and giving away a lot of really cool things. 

Be sure to check out ElevenMoms, and see some of the other moms that I get the honor and privilege of working with!

Monkey See and Monkey Do had convinced me to stay home on Monday.. Monkey See had tummy aches and wasn’t feeling too well, so it was an easy convince… CLoser to nap time, I realized that by not going to the gym, we had no outlet of energy all morning, and nap time was not going to happen… It was too windy to go to the park, so out came the Wii Fit… It was awesome…

I took off, and intended to take a photo of this particular hair… only to realize that the winds that whipped though our area had blown said hair off of my vanity, somewhere on the floor.. So I don’t have a photo to share with you.. but I can tell you… 

IT WAS A GREY HAIR!!!! AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!! 

ok, so it was just one… and it’s gone now… My mom keeps telling me that pluck one, and 2 more grow in it’s place… well.. just great.. We’ll see… Now this is what I get for not coloring my hair for nearly a year… I wanted to go back to my natural color, and what do I get?? A grey hair.. .

I blame it on 3 year old twins!!! LOL It’s ok.. because when they’re older, I’ll show them all the grey hairs that “they” gave me, and maybe that’ll be the trick to get them to listen to me… 

In my dreams…

Over at a blog that I read called “So Now What?” there’s a post about what a “maverick” truly is… Go check it out.. You might get a kick out of it..
