Helen Strikes Back

She's back. Helen the Herpes arrived yesterday inside of my mouth. It was a timely arrival. Oddly enough, it coincided right around the time that my boss (an executive level officer) informed me that I will need to give a presentation to the other executives Monday. This includes our Chief Executive Officer. I will be giving a presentation over the website that I manage.

I believe a new outfit is in order. Maybe even a new purse. (I love Lipstick's story about the work purse.) I won't have time to get my hair done before 9:30 on Monday morning, but maybe the room will be dark and the CEO won't notice my roots.

I am relieved that our sweet Daddy is home for 3 whole weeks. He got home around 6 last night with a bag full of shoes (the Lil loves shoes) from the Disney store.

Football is on the agenda for today. The weather should be lovely- so perhaps the girls can play outside. My friend Katy should be here today. I hope to see her and her darlings!

Edited to Add: The Little Lil is speaking a foreign language. She's speaking it in sentences, too. I just have no idea what she's saying. It starts out as, "Hey Mommy!" then it turns into the language that I cannot comprehend.

I know that post of Lipsticks well, I tell it to many friends... and because of dear Lipstick, I dont think I will be another Coach bag again. I am eyeing a dooney :)

That Helen has some nerve!

Poor Mama! I am sorry you've got a visit from Helen.

Many, many thanks for the linky love. I am just so giddy that I am blushing. Air kiss, air kiss.

I find it hard to believe you ever don't look cute...makeup or not. I may or may not have yesterday's eye makeup on...and I may or may not be on Day 84,000 of the hair cycle and sporting a serious ponytail.

I'm Very VERY sad that we didn't call or come by....you WILL be very glad that we didn't though. Bentley threw up Friday night (in Gammy's bed) and then some more on Sat. I felt yucko last night and still do, my tummy doesn't hurt anymore but my allergens suck. So, good thing we didn't come infect you all.

Bummer on the herpes, and lovely timing this Helen has. Sports and Daddy being home will make it all better. I bet you LLM speaks the same language as my Miss Mia does. Sometimes I just look at my girl and shake my head. I want to understand, but I just don't, yk?
