I'm alive....

surviving through minimal hours of sleep....and wanting desperately to go home...or do me X-mas shopping before our sales tax kicks in on Wednesday..

yeah, folks..up until Wednesday..we were tax free..

I need to be reminded of that lil' detail next time I go vote..

My weekend kicked off on Thursday...True had a gig at Hard Rock Cafe...it was a really important one..and I was lucky to have Vader babysit.....

Empress showed up and we chilled a bit too..

It was a long night with some complications and misunderstandings in tow...but we managed to survive and we managed to jump over the hurl...

Friday I had off...and I painted...yeah..I painted people....my living room kicks ass...

Only thing...that fancy textured roller I bought to paint didn't function as showed..and I ended up sponging the whole wall with my two bare hands..but I think the results were fab...

Here are before and after shots..Notice how all the Oriental crap is gone and is now replaced with pics I've beent taking...




Before










AFTER

Saturday I spent the early part of the day at True's house...we just chilled at his crib with Miss C and spent the afternoon watching TV and working on some stuff on his computer...Later in the evening I went to the park where we were going to have our Autism Family Day to help out...

I got there late..and there wasn't much helping out left..but I did see the gals...and meet a fellow blogger..

Yoly and her husband...






Totally Totally adorable!!

You're my 'homegirl' too, Yoly!!!

Sunday...was my big day....Our Big Day..

The X came over early to watch Miss C so I could go to the park early and help out...

It was the most exciting event I've been to in a long time....We had music, clowns, firetrucks for the kids...games...lots of orientation tables, they had parents give conferences and specialists too!! It was awesome..

My highlight: meeting so many people from our internet page....

&

being in charge of the "Photoline" of Carlos Delgado...player for the New York Mets...I was in charge of making sure the line didn't get out of hand...

Thing is...I was wearing my Yankees Cap...

His take, on the microphone: "Yankees out!!"

When things settled down and I asked him for a picture he agreed...not before turning my hat backwards...

Sweet!!!

It was sad in a sense to see many new faces, which means many new cases..but all in all it was a spectacular event..

We even had a mini-talent show..

Andrea, the Unicycle rider....
Luis José who played the piano and sang with his mom....you should've have seen the people crying at the sight of these two, intelligent, beautiful, AUTISITC kids!!

Truly Truly breathtaking!!

I'm posting the pics of this day, along with the videos in a separate post..
