Exciting news! I have moved blogs. I am in the process of slowly moving all the posts over. Please join me at MomOffTrack.com.
Have some pretty exciting news to tell you all about. Seems like we are finally getting that silver lining after all. So, 3 very cool things happening in our lives.
First: Connor was “Accepted With Distinction” to his first choice highschool. He was invited into the Honors class. I am soooo happy for him. I have such wonderful memories of highschool and I am thrilled that he is going to get to have similar experiences as his dad and I did. Clearly he was not asked to pronounce Haiti on the test.
Second: Some of you may know how sad I have been about the prospect of my mom selling her home. It is the house I grew up and belonged to my grandparents before. The house is full of memories. Well, the exciting news? A producer approached my mom about using the house in a scene in the new Will Farrell movie. There is a process to go through before being the final selection but it is cool no matter what. The really neat thing is that we are planning to be there the week they are set to film anyway. Keep your fingers crossed.
Third: I was chosen as a The View mom brand ambassador. I am pretty excited about this. I love The View have watched for years. Now I will get to bring cool exclusives and discussions to you all here. YAY ME!
So, that is the quick wrap up. I am taking a few much deserved days off and heading up to Breck. Have a great weekend!
Disclosure: I am a participant in a Mom Central campaign for ABC Daytime and will be compensated to facilitate my honest review(s).
to my little corner of the blogosphere. I am Barb, an ex-public school teacher turned blogger and forum owner. Read all about our family antics as we muddle through the chaos that occurs daily when you mix a work-at-home-mom with an unschooled, wheeling, tween and a teen in Catholic school. Not to mention my very traditional high school sweetheart turned husband of 17 years. Hey, at least I am giving my kids something to talk about in therapy when they get older...
Awesome, awesome, and awesome!!!
So glad to hear all of the good news. You deserve it!
Is Connor going to the same school as my niece? or one we haven't talked about? Can't wait to hear more details offline!
