Happy Tuesday

Holy Cold weather! It is FREEZING here. The perfect weather to snuggle by a fire with a movie. At Christmas I have a few favorite movies that I must see, and they always put me in the spirit.

Miracle on 34th street

It's a Wonderful Life

Love Actually

Christmas Vacation

The Family Man

What are your must see holiday movies?

That is an actual lobster they caught off of Atlantic City. Stay warm!

WASP Wednesday

I LOVE movies. I wish I got to the theater more, and when I do...it's raining or a holiday and I'm usually seeing something age appropriate for a 5-10 year old. Last night, nothing was on, so I checked out this film I'd never heard of.


The Joneses centers around a "family," that is a marketing ploy to encourage friends and neighbors to purchase the products they own/use. I was fascinated by this look at advertising and the dark side of materialism. Secretly, I thought this would be a fun job for SC. Have you seen it?

Happy Socialite Saturday

Look who is a SC fan!

So of course, what did I do next?

Monogram March may be over but I'm still monogramming people!

Being Beth Dunn

Friday
I have horrible ADD so I live life in 30 minute increments
9:00 Sign books to be donated to Junior League for charity
9:15 breathing, should take 10 minutes, only took 9-must be doing something wrong.
10:00 hair-ugh
11:00 date with three 10 year old boys (Greye on spring break). We went to lunch and then to see the movie Dairy of a Wimpy Kid. If husband ever leaves me for money spent at doctor's office I'll make a great cougar! 10 times three=30
2:30 Run movie ideas by Hermes, she approves
4:00 Mommie takes Greye to horse back riding as she is down for Dawn's birthday dinner. Meet with assistant

I'm not really a superficial SC

Happy Preppy Friday. I'm going to NYC tomorrow and can't wait!

SC is really all about charity work, and having fun in the process. I'm officially not on any boards for 2010. I got burned out. I need a year to just be a guest not on the committee working. Plus, I really want to try to finish my next novel and raise money for a Foundation I've started. Don't forget I'm willing to donate books and lend support-I just donated to The Junior League in Philadelphia. But I'm getting off topic.

Entertaining House has a SIL who is losing her battle with Ovarian Cancer. Ladies this affects us in a silent deadly way. So I want to share some of her blog with you. Please find the entire post here Click here

Ovarian Cancer Risk Factors:

Studies have found the following risk factors for ovarian cancer:
Family history of cancer: Women who have a mother, daughter, or sister with ovarian cancer have an increased risk of the disease. Also, women with a family history of cancer of the breast, uterus, colon, or rectum may also have an increased risk of ovarian cancer.
Personal history of cancer: Women who have had cancer of the breast, uterus, colon, or rectum have a higher risk of ovarian cancer.
Age over 55: Most women are over age 55 when diagnosed with ovarian cancer
Never pregnant: Older women who have never been pregnant have an increased risk of ovarian cancer.
Health and lifestyle: Ovarian cancer is more prevalent in North American and European white Caucasian females because their diets are higher in animal fats.
Likewise being overweight and obesity are contributing factors.

The Following are Ovarian Cancer Symptoms:
<!----------------------->
Early ovarian cancer may not cause obvious symptoms. But, as the cancer grows, symptoms may include:

  • Pressure or pain in the abdomen, pelvis, back, or legs
  • A swollen or bloated abdomen
  • Nausea, indigestion, gas, constipation, or diarrhea
  • Feeling very tired all the time
Less common symptoms include:
  • Shortness of breath
  • Feeling the need to urinate often
  • Unusual vaginal bleeding (heavy periods, or bleeding after menopause)
Most often these symptoms are not due to cancer, but only a doctor can tell for sure. Any woman with these symptoms should tell her doctor.


On a much lighter note: I'm going to see It's Complicated tonight with Husband and our friends. Nancy Meyer is my new BFF-she just doesn't know it yet!
