Updates and coming attractions !!!!

Life has been a whirlwind and I am running on pure adrenalin. Wow !!!! Where do I begin. Okay I keep adding more to my schedule and I am not willing to knock anything off. Blogging has taken a back seat but that has not stopped me from visiting other blogs. Okay there is a lot of good things going on. Priyasha turned three and her b-day spa party with about 14 girls was a blast. Pics and details to follow soon. Pravan recently received an invitation by the board of trustees and the school district to attend their board meeting this month. This is so he is recognized for his good deeds and getting the award. Before we found out about that he set a goal of collecting 25 barrels of food. Ia m told that each will hold about 250 pounds will be total over one ton with just ten. More details to follow on this mission we are calling "Pravan and Priyasha's mission to feed the hungry." The postcard mission is still on and has been successful. It is ongoing and we have reached six continents. We still need some from South America. If you want to send the kids some please refer to the link above for details. Also see the links at SCS. The ladies there have been wonderful and have helped a lot. I appreciate their time and generosity in sending the kids cards as well as spreading the word via e-mail and by posting on their blogs as well. Your help is welcomed. http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?p=13417354#post13417354 http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?p=13417354#post13417354 My B-day night out with the ladies on April 1 is in the works. Yes I am a April fools baby. NO JOKE !! The Easter egg hunt and food bank cause is scheduled for April 5Th. Pravan is very busy with cub scouts and that keeps me busy too. He will cross over from a tiger to wolf in May. Details to follow We were successful in building a tricky leprechaun trap and it was a delight to see Pravan so excited and creative. Pic's and details tomorrow. I am babysitting for three families now and I got a job on Fr, Sat and Sun at a restaurant a mile away from home. I work 10 hours a day and kissed my weekends goodbye. Just what I need to do for now but it has been a hard transition. I love being outside the home and this has been a wonderful thing for me and a much needed break from all the kids. Met a wonderful new neighbor and he gave me wonderful backgrounds to take pics with and I am so thrilled. I am exchanging baby sitting for these and I cannot wait to get my dream camera the D300 and get more serious about photography. I should be getting lights from this neighbor as well. I am more than thrilled. Pics will be up soon. Okay there is so much more to tell you about but you will have to check back. Got to run. Have a sponsor for 10 000 fliers to send to the kids at the schools so we can get more barrels filled. SSHHHHHHH!!!!! I am exhausted and need to schedule time to chill out. I feel like a real secretary as I have been talking to the media, the paper and the schools etc to get as much guidance and help to make this food drive successful for the kids. Check back soon and I look forward to any suggestions and feedback for the food drive. Free Spirit !!!
