so I just got a vampire themed case for my iPhone in the mail. it also came with a capacitive stylus a screen cleaner and screen protector. considering I never ordered it and the case was on my wish list I am assuming it was ordered by my buddy to my address.

a big thank you to my buddy. i want my buddy to stay a surprise until everything else gets here but couldn't wait to say a big thank you.

I am on vacation. So happy! I don't have to go back to work until July 7th. Jackson has his last day of school tomorrow morning, I'll pick him up at 11:30, come home and eat lunch, then we are off to Nanny & Poppy's for a whole week! I have so much to get done tomorrow morning lol, laundry, mow the lawn or it'll be a forest when we get home, clean up the litter boxes, pack suitcases, I think there's more, I made a list. But overall... I am so happy to be away from work for a week.

Anyone else ready to mail their package? I will be shortly Wow, it is hard to find alligator style hair clips for kids, but goshdarnit, I did it.

Today has been a good day for me. I went to the Buddhist center, had a long conversation about Internet Trolls with my favourite Monk - he is actually quite funny. Came to the conclusion that I have to have compassion for them because they most likely are actual psychopaths and cannot help the horrible things they think (although I do believe they can control their actions!) It is tough to not get upset at people when they are being malicious. This came about when I saw people commenting stupid things like "She would make great bacon" on Esther the Pigs fan site (she has raised almost $400,000 in 90 days for her sanctuary!) https://www.facebook.com/estherthewonderpig?fref=ts I do not understand how people can be so unsympathetic as to say something like that, but I figure deep down it's their own guilt coming out. ANYWAY, have you ever dealt with a troll?

[Tinkerbella]

This is Esther by the way

Today has been pure chaos. lol.

Last day of school so had to get all DD's treats/presents to the school. Had a bunch of running around to do, get home and receive a text from SIL saying she left DD's VERY EXPENSIVE flower girl dress hanging on my front door. After more than 2 hours of searching, we've accepted that it's gone. It was hand made silk and shipped from BC. The wedding is 4 weeks away! I don't even have words for how I feel right now. At least not nice ones...

The upside to the day (as its always important to see the good things) is that I was able to book us into Nickelodeon Suites for 1 night next February. We're staying 1 week in a rental house and then 1 night at Nickelodeon and then flying home. I'm so excited since the kids will be in heaven! Can't wait to surprise them with the Nickelodeon night!

[Tinkerbella]

Oh Lola, I am so sorry for your chaotic day!

I like that you added a positive note though. What is Nickeolodeon suites?

Its a resort with a mini theme park. Has a lot of their characters walking about (Spongebob, Dora, TMNT) and interactive shows and of course SLIME stations all of the place and the waterpark.
