I'm still alive! We just returned from a 3 week roadtrip in which we drove over 6,000miles, took over 600 photos, adopted a child, saw a ballet, kissed a llama, held a baby kangaroo, took a walk down memory lane, reunited with friends and family, scaled Delicate Arch, spotted a giant bull snake, gained 10lbs, and rented $50 worth of redbox DVDs.
But all that is yet to come.
for now let's enjoy this...
it happened last night and really just is too dang funny to wait its turn in the sequencial order of my blogging:)
When Quaint Book Club meets Dirty Laundry
Date: 2009 Claire Cook wrote a novel entitled The Wildwater Walking Club
{insert Law and Order chung chung sound byte here}
Date: June 26, 2012 Sabrina Lawton hosts a book club to discuss the book
{insert Law and Order chung chung sound byte here}
5:00pm- hostesss sets table to reflect the themes from the novel: old ladies who are obessesed with lavendar and insist on drying their laundry on a clothes line
6:40pm- first guest arrives but is forced to enter through back door due to sprinklers
6:55pm- hostess notices what appears to be a cheetah print thong floating in mid-air and a white vehicle drive off but is too car-illiterate to remember the make or model.
6:56pm- hostess and guests admire the handy work of a scandalous prankster: a clothesline dangling danties that could have literally been taken right from the book.
7:00pm- book club begins and the topic of conversation is denial denial denial by all for any involvement in the front yard decor
8:00pm- a photo op, obviously.
10:30pm- Guests begin texting everyone and their mother about their wherabouts that evening to try to catch the culprit
11:15pm- last guests are leaving and one in particular exits in a vehicle awfully similar to the one sighted at 6:55pm

Date: June 27, 2012
8:30am- at the breakfast table the 5 year old daughter explains to the hostess, I saw Rockland's mom hanging the clothes and then trying to turn off the sprinklers. 6 year old confirms what the criminal was wearing and where she sat at book club.
9:52pm- Lindsey Pickett confesses (she'd be the one innocently holding the baby in the photo)
She is hereby sentenced to the title of The Coolest Person in the Entire World!

The streets are now cleaner and my laundry is dirty dirty, but hey at least its line-dried.
Lavendar, Laundry and these Ladies= Laughing
the night away, the perfect medicine for when the hubs is out of town.
so much better than being Lonely.
