What a great lunch we had, it was lovely and especially for me because the first hour I was kid and Stephen free. Not that I don't ADORE my family to death, but hey I don't get a lot of time by myself so while Reef slept and Stephen painted, I walked around the corner and sat with Sabina and the rest of her family and had a lovely brunch and a lovely couple of glasses of Pinot Grigio. Then after about, actually it was probably more like 2 hours, my angels turned up and Reef basically fell in love with Katie. They played, Katie tickled Reef (even though she's not ticklish) and she also FED HER. Oh my god I want this kid to move in with us, as getting Reef to eat these days is a little rough to say the least. SO I was very appreciative of Katie for doing that for me.
Also with us was Connor who is Dwane and Sabina's other grandson, now look at this boy, born to be a model don;t you think? and guess what? he is....
in fact he's just finished up his first Gap campaign. He's gonna go far this one, and he's so lovely and polite with it, he's great, I love Connor and I think my daughter has a little crush on him to.
So what else, well Nigel's party was OK, but nothing fab like I expected. It was lovely to see Nigel, as always he's the perfect gentlemen and he seemed truly thrilled to receive one of Stephen's one off t-shirts. But alas there was no one famous there, then again we left at 9:30, so they could well of come later, but Threase told me the next day that no one famous did show, except for Ernest Ernesto or something like that, he's a weatherman. Please I LOVE Sam Champion, now THAT'S A CELEBRITY WEATHERMAN.
It was funny though, as there were tons of would-be models there, so of course the waiters are passing round slider hamburgers and chicken fingers but no one would take them, well except for me and Stephen, and the looks of disgust we got from the models was truly hysterical...hey we're not models, we don't have bad breath and insist on smoking every 5 minutes to take the pang off our hunger.....
So my mother turned 65 this past Monday, so I got her a gold locket with chain and organised a picture of myself and Reef to go in it. I have a sneaky feeling she's gonna LOVE the gift, hope so, can't see why she wouldn't/
So we are getting excited about the imminent arrival of Stephen's other daughter Francesca and his folks Agnes and Bill. It's going to be great to have the family over and I know Stephen is massively excited about the visit and of course he'll do his usual and get all emotional...too cute when he does that.
So I hear from my sources that Morpheus's wedding was lovely, well the weather that day was wonderful, so that's great for them. Although I must admit I couldn't help notice that on one of the pictures that Lucy showed me he looked like he had bloody shoulder pads, good grief Morpheus, what you needed the extra height? she's not that tall.
Very happy for him, let's hope the second time around works out well.
So what else, well I've just handed in the internal building card request for a 3 bedroom apartment. Well missy is getting bigger by the minute and at some point we are going to really be on top of each other. Although Cynthia downstairs in the office told me not to hold my breath. yes there is a lot of really old people in this building, but unfortunately for us, they are living way past their sell by date, so I guess we'll be here for a fair few years yet. God knows what we're gonna do when Francesca graduates, she may well want to come and live here in New York, not sure how we're going to deal with that one.
So Reef is down right now, then when she wakes we're off to our friends for a late lunch with her pal Esme, then theres' a kids sale on Bleecker Street, so will check that out, then park again, then home, then it's me and Stephen time, then I wake up tomorrow and do the whole thing all over again.
Cool....oh shit, I've just remembered that I have clinic with her tomorrow afternoon...god i hate that place...
So wish we had money to get private insurance, that would be lovely, a nice waiting room with nice magazines and not bloody drug addicts, fat diabetes ridden people and hacking smokers cough old women.
Sorry guess that's the princess in me.
Later people....
These are the two pictures that are in my mum's locket....nice right? think she's like them.......
