Bless Your Heart

Living out loud in the Carolinas

Last night I went to a Mardi Gras party with my friend Kim. Kim & I with our masks before heading out to the Mardi Gras party It was put on by The Mommies Network.  I know I’m not a mom yet (and I promise to post an adoption update this week), but my sister encouraged me to join as they have an adoption forum.  I’ve met some great people through TMN.  Kim & I got together in the afternoon (she lives up the street from me) and we made our masks.  Then we headed out to the party last night.  I was able to meet some more members and visit with some I’ve already met.  So that was fun.  I was shocked however, by the behavior of some of the moms there.  It was a “get to know you” event and they (loudly) talked about really inappropriate things.  Like 3somes, anal sex, and they used really foul language.  It was just really disappointing.  I’ll still do things within TMN, but just not things that those girls are involved in.

After the party I dropped Kim off and went in for a little while.  She has a wii.  Her and her 16 yr old son taught me how to play.  So fun!  I want one!

Today I went to the grocery store and picked up ingredients for fun football food (Texi Mexi cups & this great dip I make).  CSP came home from work and we watched most of the Super Bowl.  He’s already in bed.  No idea who won.  But I recorded it so we can at least watch the commercials!

    I’ve always considered you a mom – your blog feed is in the ‘mommy’ file in my reader – can’t wait for an adoption update!

    Oh and my hub just got Guitar Hero for the PS3 – that is a super fun game too – it makes me feel like a rock star :)

    Wow, those are some, um, interesting moms. I think I blushed just reading the word 3some and I’m not really a prude. Your masks look great, though. Bet you had lots of fun making them.

    Totally cute masks. You guys did a great job.

    Weird about the vulgar mamas … but maybe I’m a bit prudish.

    Glad you had a fun weekend. You sure you didn’t accidently end up going to a sex toy party which was the house next door to the Mom’s Network paarty;) LOOL!

    We’ve been looking to find a Wii for months now. Nothing! Arrrggh!

    Those Superbowl commercials are so much better than what is put out throughout the year.

    We got a wii at Christmas and it’s so fun. We recently got Guitar Hero, which is pretty addicting.

    I’m sorry that you were offended, but you should have said something.
    And in the future try to keep in mind that even though we are parents we are still women and there is nothing “nasty” about a healthy sex life.
