Busy

This is what's happening within the next 2 weeks:

*Throwing a 13th birthday party for my daughter - she just decided last night she wants a party with 8 of her girlfriends, so I have to throw something together in the next four days. I think we are going with a "candy theme". We are currently in super-duper-party-planning mode.

*Get new tires on my vehicle.

*Pack for our entire family so that we can take a 5-day trip to Florida -- our kids do not even know about this, it's a surprise!

*Return from Florida (probably late at night) and, literally, about 6-8 hours later, get on a plane and head to Chicago (weekend trip with a friend; I'll also be taking an RN Refresher course one of the days I'm there)

Oh, and I would like to lose about 15 pounds before I have to hit the beach. I'm thinking that's not going to happen, though.
