drowning...?

At this point, I'm wondering if the pool party was a good idea.  I sent out the invitations on Monday (all 26 of them), and so far only 4 kids are coming.  Actually, 2 called and RSVP'ed, and 2 more are saying they're coming...just waiting for the word from their parents.  I know I clearly wrote the phone number on the card...what the hell??  Did they not bring them home?  Maybe it's because she's new at the school...maybe they can't swim (or don't want to)...I have no idea.  I'm starting to wonder if I made a mistake...the price I paid ($185) is for up to 25 kids, and that's not including food, cake, etc.  Am I nuts???  I dunno...I'm trying to keep in mind that this is the party SHE wanted...as I'm kicking myself in the butt...

Anyway, today is Employee Appreciation Day at work--food, games, other good stuff.  Too bad I'm OFF today.  You know, I just might go down there just to take advantage of the free food...sausage and peppers.  Mmmmmmmm.

Also, Joey's sick again.  This cold went from Papa to Little Guy to Bum to Joey.  Hopefully he's feeling a little better for tomorrow for the party.  After all, Dad can't be sick...lol.

til next time...=)

  2. The whole party organising thing for children just gets more and more complicated these days. I've got 6 children and I dread the day when they're all old enough to want "exciting" parties. I always get nervous but usually a happy time is had by all. Haven't had the courage to book a swimming party yet as I don't think I'm ready to inflict myself in a bathing suit on innocent kids (not to mention the parents that I see at the school gate everyday!)

  3. So sorry the pool party isn't working out so far.  I think it is a cool idea.
