Stuff

This week-end is going to be a busy one. My little girl's school festival is tomorrow and we'll be out most of the day. It's supposed to rain and it is an outdoor event. I'm working the hula hoop booth. I hope it won't be too much of a wash-out. Sunday we are attending a friend's church confirmation and party.

Last week-end was a blast. On Sunday and Monday (Memorial Day) we went to the pool. We love summers at our pool because it is so convenient here in our complex. New York Magazine rated it the best indoor pool in Manhattan in their "Best Of..." issue. There is a great outdoor area and attendants who fetch us lounge chairs and we can order food and drinks from the deli and sit out on our chairs in our swimming suits and enjoy lunch. It may not seem like such a big deal, but to us city folks, it gives us a respite from the heat and the chaos of our everyday existence in the concrete jungle. We feel like we are at a country club!! We laugh and call it our "ghetto country club"! We know that after a few hours of swimming and playing and eating and sunning ourselves that we are the luckiest people in the world! In our little world anyway.

Hope you all have a fabulous week-end.

Sounds like a great weekend Annie. I remember those school festivals..only we called them carnivals. They were so much fun for the kids...and the parents. Take care...
