Extraordinary Housewives: April 2009

Synopsis of Us

Lisa is au natural. She likes to have babies at home and drink slimy green liquids with large amounts of earth in them. She loves the quacks and we love her. If you are ailing, just call Lisa. She will doctor you up!

Melanie is a little bundle of energy. She's very peppy and always bouncing around. Do not drive with her. She tends to talk and visit and not watch the road. Cuts a mean hair-do!

Sarah is crazy! She loves Diet Pepsi (too much). The group photographer with many free photo shoots for her friends. Many questionable eating habits that we all ignore, hopefully they don't kill her.

Emily is an overachiever. She never sleeps and wakes up way too early so she can pratice music with her kids. She loves the earthy green drink too. Be careful, she will try to poison you with sugar-free goodies.

Jen is a dental hygienist. If you want to know which kind of gum to chew (to xylitol or not to xylitol, this is the question) she'll know.

Lana is full of crap! Literally, her house is full of crap! Yes, just stuff. If you ever need any random thing, pretty sure it's in her house... somewhere. Very competitive, don't coach children's athletics with her.

Adria is straightforward. She pretty much says it like it is. She is our community sex-ed advisor. Any questions, just ask her, she knows it all.

Marianne (one of the tall, leggy blonds) is amazing! She graduated from college while taking care of her four children and working to save the entire Chinese orphan population.

Marilyn is a perfectionist. She has to have everything at a ninety degree angle, if not, she's nervous. Hopefully this doesn't kill her. Likes to scrapbook, spends a large sum of money on this activity.

Stephanie (another tall, leggy blond) really likes to work out. Too much of a good thing is not a good thing. Nursing is her profession (not wet nursing).

Garage Sale

Labels: Junk needed......where's Lana when we need her...

Hi guys! We are having a garage sale to help Geanie and The fabulous Mr. Zaid on May 2nd at Amy Mallory's house on Hiland. You know "Garage Sale Row". We need ALL the stuff we can get so we can raise some serious money. So dig up all the things you won't even miss and we'll do some good in the world!
Bring your stuff to her house the night before, May 1st. We will be setting up. Call me or Adelle Astin for details. Bring it already priced. We will have lots of other things to sell like baked goods and lemonade and hot chocolate. I personally know how wonderful it felt last year when Lana's friend Merideth baked all night the night before Lana's garage sale when I was trying to find the travel/food/hotel money to go get Jonah. She donated all the proceeds to my fund which truly made me cry! So, if you want you can bring your best culinary creations !!!! It will be SOOOOOOOO fun! Call me for the address when it gets closer. It will be the best day!
Ready set, go get started on your spring cleaning and shed those items!
