More About the Fundraiser

Gah! About a week and half to go! I am very very excited with how everything is coming together. But I have a lot to do still. This Friday I have a meeting at the Adria to talk numbers and drinks and layout. On Monday I am meeting a new friend to pick up her generous donation. Tomorrow I have to call the autism center to discuss what the event entails. I also have to pick up a few more gifts and make an informational flyer! And coordinate with donors to pick up their awesome donations. It is going to be a hectic time and I will love every minute of it. I live for stuff like this! I thought I would update you all on what is going to go down, yo'!

Please please please RSVP by Monday June 15th! Danke!

A special thank you to all the donors who will be singled out at the event because you all deserve a round of applause and an extra free drink and my eternal gratitude. The list of donors will also be posted on the flier and the Facebook event page.

I cannot believe how generous people have been! It blows my mind! The value of all of the prizes reaches close to 1,000 euros so if you don't hear from me, I will be at the opera, with fabulous hair, smelling clean, reading a couple of books, after having had a fabulous dinner and all the while planning what to wear to a ball. Heh. I generally think people are awesome and seeing the list above just strengthens my belief even more.

Since the location will be indoors for a little bit: for the free drinks and raffle, I am hoping to keep the venue adults only for safety reasons. I will be wearing heels and I am clumsy and I don't want to step on anyone. However, there is a playground and sandy area outside of the Adria for kids or for the young at heart! If you have any more questions please drop me a line.

I CANNOT WAIT!

A Key Word Post

I didn't have anything specific to post tonight because nothing terribly exciting happened over the weekend. Which is actually a good thing. That means it was a chillaxed weekend with no need to look up divorce lawyers or boarding schools for toddlers. So, that means that I will write things based on some key words... long story short, lots of short stories. So here we go! The daycare: This morning was my morning to bring the Kid. By 8 he was in his coat and shoes and I was in my fake fur vest and heels. We headed out and rounded the corner and walked through the front gate. He jumped out of his stroller and headed to the front door. It was locked. I tried a couple times to open it and the Kid started to whine. One of the providers came to the door and explained the daycare was closed for the day. Apparently it was staff development day and someone (the Husband) did not see the signs up last week that they were closed today. I apologized and tried to call the Husband while tryi...

The Way Some People Find my Blog and a Challenge

Image
Now, I am not sure why people read my blog. O.k., there are some reasons that people read my blog... they are interested in autism, they like my use of gifs, they are my friends and want to support me, sometimes I make them laugh, they want to see if they are mentioned in it, they live in Vienna and want to know where I go so they can avoid bumping into me... I don't have a sophisticated stat counter on my blog. The only thing I can really see is the number of page views, which countries those page views are coming from and what people search for and somehow end up on my blog. So I decided today to post the most common terms that bring people to my page. And some of them are amusing. Pros and cons to living in Vienna : This one is pretty understandable. I did a whole "pros vs. cons" post a while ago. I think if I had to move to a new city I would most likely type in the same thing. As well as, "average price of alcohol". Salma Hayek naked : I have abso...

How to Dress Rich - Old Money

Image
Back in March, the Husband and I enjoyed an amazing night at the Bristol. It was a gift from my parents and probably the most amazing thing about that night was that we got a complimentary upgrade. We laughed, we danced and then I stopped and said in a serious tone to the Husband "It's cause we dressed rich an you know it." And then I danced some more and drank Moet Chandon straight from the bottle. I have class and you know it. Dressing rich is not that hard and doesn't have to cost that much. Now I am not talking about Kardashian rich (that money is the money of Satan), I am talking old school money, country clubs and drinking scotch. Here are some tips to how you can dress to look rich for different occasions (please note that this is in no way making fun of rich people, poor people or any people. This is based on observations on my part and the deep seated desperation of wanting to be a rich WASP from the East Coast. Pick me!). Dressing old school money pretty m...
