So this may be a little early however, my fellow bloggers may be interested in my newest non-profit venture.
It is called The People's Closet. It is a Clothing Exchange organization in which you can trade in childrens and adults clothing of different sizes for those in need!
It is also going to offer free Clothing Exchange Parties, etc.
More information can be found here!
What we need: clothing, donations, sponsors, etc.
Please contact info@thepeoplescloset.org for additional information. These times are tough for all but together we can make a difference!

How I'd spend $1,000
I would spend about $100 at Sephora - stock up on makeup, moisturizers, products, etc. for the next year!
I would put about $200 in the bank for next year's Christmas gifts - I know kinda lame....
I would spend $100 on Red Sox tickets for D and myself!
I would spend $100 at IKEA buying odds and ends to organize house.
I would spend $25 to clean my carpets.
I would spend $100 at the Jcrew outlet on a few new summer items.
I would spend the last $375 on outstanding bills!

Things I'm loving right now....
1. Baseball Season -
The Red Sox make me happy; I feel like a kid again; the sun is shining and I'm so excited!
2. Reeses Peanut Butter Eggs -
I have succesfully eaten wayyyyy too many to count. I'm seriously full from too many
eggs; who would've thought that was possible? Time to start my 21 day fast...
3. Polo's new section for the family -
You can now go on and find matching outfits for your whole family. For our Disney trip in the
fall, we are going to be that family, and now Ralph Lauren is helping make this much easier!
Check it out here.
4. Black Eyed Peas Boom Boom Pow -
This song is GREAT!!! It is not only great to run to, but also when cleaning house it literally
pumps you up! I'm so glad the Black Eyed Peas are back together. Now, if I could only figure
out a way to get tickets to Kiss concert I could see them in person!
5. My family -
It is not often you can sit back and appreciate them but, I am taking time out to do this
today. They may drive me crazy at time but I love each and every one of them to death!!!

Til Death do they part.....
I'm in D and C's wedding on May 16th. I'm super excited to see all my college friends, and cannot wait to see D in her dress! I'm a bridesmaid, not something I enjoy but am looking forward to being part of their special day.
This is what I'm thinking for the rehearsal dinner:
Rehearsal Dinner... by casualchic05 featuring Elizabeth and James rings
Thoughts??? I already have the shoes and cardigan, just need the sweater and ring is optional. After all, any gold ring will do...or perhaps I'll have an engagement ring by then which then of course will have to redo the gold themed outfit. I'm not sure exactly what the style etiquette is as far as when wearing fun gold jewelery is is it okay to wear white gold engagement ring???
For the wedding itself, our dresses are Ann Taylor strapless in a light blue taffeta with silver shoes. They are super cute, and yes despite the cliched statement "you can wear them again."
Now I just need to buy my plane ticket however, my boy and I might want to fly from Charlotte to Florida after the wedding. We just went to Disney in January however, we may go again. This spa is just fantastic!
Our other options that we are thinking are possibly flying to Atlantis, New Orleans, or Miami. I haven't been to any of these locations; D has and thinks they could be a great alternative to what we consider our safety vacation at Disney.

Things I'm loving right now.....
2. Planning my next trip to Disney - yes its not until October 2009 but it is never too early to start planning.
3. Training for my 5K. I am not a runner and just as surprised as you are that I will be running this but am excited to do it! My brother, who is a trained runner got me to sign up with him and will be running the same race with me. He will most definitely run faster(he can run like 6 or 7 minute mile) but as long as I finished, I'm good with that.
5. The website http://www.ruelala.com/.

Happy Opening Day!!!!!!
D is attending opening day today. I think it is going to rain but if not I hope he enjoys himself. I would love to go, but realize its his thing and should not be jealous. I have work to do, and should clean the house and do laundry.
by Alyssa Milano. While at first I would be ashamed to admit I read this, I would recommend it only to those who are baseball fans. Even though she is referencing being a Dodgers fan, and I am straight up RED SOX, I think there is so much I actually can relate to. There is something about going to a baseball game; whether its the draft beer, grape bubblegum, or music playing on the soundsystem it brings you back to the feeling of being five years old again.
