Hot damn! I am tired. I bought Jackson’s French family presents that he was supposed to present to them. Everyday I text and ask him if he gave them the presents and everyday he responds I am waiting. Well today my daily text of please give the presents was responded with I am waiting. ” Jackson its your last day with them! Give them the freaking presents! Lol
He is a pip but he’s my pip. Can’t wait for him to get home!

NY GM fucked up today. Daniel found out from the AC guy that she was late opening the bar. Well too bad for her because now Daniel’s inner psycho will come out and watch the cameras every day morning and night! Lol
Three bars did well this weekend , San Antonio, Milwaukee, and NY. By the way, awesome Milwaukee!
I have spent the last half an hour trying to figure out how to get Kevin training for an Ironman. Coyote Ugly Ironman. He’s the only person I know who really can pull this off

“take off eh ya hoser” or ” ay dude you want a brew”. I figure since I am fucking trapped in the Toronto airport probably forever, I need to speak like the locals. Landed in Toronto in plenty of time to catch my flight but the customs line took so long that I missed my flight. ” why didn’t the people from Air Canada pull you to the front of the line” I don’t fucking know but they didn’t ! That’s not the worst part. I waited on line to get a new flight. 3 people looking at the computer. ” you were scheduled on a direct flight but there are no more direct flights today so we don’t know how to rebook you” . Really 3 people and no one can figure out this unsolvable problem. The whole fucking cast of The movie Strange Brew seems to work here. Oh but yes my next flight is now delayed which means I will miss my next connecting flight!

I finally won one! I left the moms and Avignon today for one day in Paris before I go back home. I finally got to Paris and I just walked and walked. Tonight I went to dinner by myself and had a huge meal. The waiter was surprised by how much I ordered so in broken French I told him it was my last night. Well he bought me dessert and a wine! Voila. Victory. Nobody likes eating dinner alone but when you travel you just have to. I have to learn French and Russian that’s my goal ! On the Q T, French men do have a way of oggling a woman so she feels good . Thanks Universe for all the perverted French men who cat call and make you feel attractive!

Interesting trip with the school moms. Only five psycho moms came to France to drop off their kids . Yes I am In that group. We were told that we could meet the families the first day but after that we could not interfere with the exchange program . This process was for their language skills to improve by having to fend for themselves within a family that does not speak English. I have abided by that. I just needed a face to faceMeeting to ward off any feelings of fear about my child being placed in a psycho home situation. Well I met the family . Good people. Jackson has texted me once a day and everything is fine. This is not how everyone has acted! One mom actually dropped everything and went to KFC to bring the kid food at his French families house. I was horrified. OMG. I could only Imagine how the family felt, this American woman barging in because their food wasnt good enough. Actually this woman and I spoke today and came to the conclusion that all parents have something that they are obsessed about. Obviously food is her thing. I am not sure what my thing is but there may be multiple areas . Who knows.

I was up for over 30 hours. Today I am good to go. I am sitting in a cafe in Avignon drinking a delicious cafe avec lait( coffe with milk). Jackson texted me this morning . I was expecting a ” I like them mom ” or ” the kid is weird” something along those lines, but this is what I received ” they fed me enough to feed a small school”. That’s it. I will take that as a good sign.

Tired! I was in Key West for work last week. Right now I just landed in Paris with Jackson’s class and we still have a 3 hour trip to Avignon

Tommy just received a letter from homeland security. He has 5 options how he will address this civil matter for carrying the nun chucks for the corporate photo shoot !lol unbelievable .
Just had a meeting with two dads that want to give their sons a ” present” . The present being a Coyote license agreement. ” jeff why the fuck did you set up this meeting? You are kidding me” . The reality was tat the sons were nice capable men but the dad just blew it for them

When I got home tonight something seemed weird. A few things seemed out of place . Lights on that I don’t normally turn on etc. I put the alarm on and checked the house. No one is here. My dogs aren’t even acting strange so it seems to be clear. But what just completely freaked me out is that when I went to the bathroom the end of the toilet paper was creased and folded like a hotel. Now I am in my house totally freaked out

Went out with Lala last night. Too much fun and too much wine. I fell asleep with the tv on and this morning I woke up thinking ” I have to stop taking my Beyaz birth control so I won’t get blood clots”. There is a commercial about getting blood clots from Yaz birth control. I am sure while I was sleeping it came on a hundred times .
Big plans in the world this week. I am very excited about our projects!

Just got Panama City’s numbers. Holy Shit they are rocking!!! Go PC

Katie Broderick was a normal 2 ½ year old girl when a two year odyssey began one Saturday afternoon. In a span of a few hours she went from a simple chest x-ray to the Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital Emergency Room with softball sized tumor surrounding her heart. She was diagnosed with Lymphoblastic Lymphoma and went on to begin a two-year cycle of chemotherapy. Today, Katie is now a nine-year-old 4th grader who proudly proclaims, “I beat cancer”.

Connor Robinson developed a dangerously fast heart rate at the age of 4 weeks. At the emergency room it was discovered that he had a baseball size tumor in his chest pushing on his heart. In addition, the tumor snaked downward along his spinal canal compressing the cord. Thankfully the skilled surgeons at Sloane Kettering were able to remove the entire Neuroblastoma Tumor and he is now an active 3rd grade sports enthusiast.

Katie and Connor are sponsoring SPRING BUZZ CUT WITH MURRAY CANCER SURVIVORS in order to honor and support Pediatric Cancer Research. They both are acutely aware that they are here today enjoying their lives because of donations from families like yours. Please join us on May 5th from 9-11 at Molly Spillane’s in Mamaroneck for a buzz cut. You can join on as an individual or form your own “team” to honor family and friends who have battled cancer.

There is a similar event being hosted at Every Thing Hair on April 26th from 4-8pm for girls who would like to donate their long hair to LOCKS FOR LOVE. It is a group that makes wigs for children with cancer. 1258 Boston Post Road 914-833-9523.

Working out the other day and I heard this woman tell her trainer. ” we need to kick this into high gear, I ‘m on The ” my boyfriend and I broke up, a new man is going to see me naked diet”. Yeah I have been on that diet before too! Lol
Lee had baby yesterday. So precious. Congrats to baby Savvy.

Slow day on the home front. We have about 4 projects looming over us right now. I found out today that Kevin went to scout a location without my approval. “Dude we can’t fit anything else on our plate stop spending money to scout.” We are always looking but we have two huge projects right in front of us and if they get signed that puts us into a holding pattern with architects, licenses etc. Its nice being busy.
My son had placement tests for his new school. ( going to a new one next year) The placement tests were in math and languages . His french placement test was an essay about who in the world you admire and why? Well when I asked him later how it went he said that he had aced it. Ok who did you write about ? “Mom Masashi Kissimoto ( excuse spelling). Jackson, Who the hell is that? “mom he is the author and illustrator for Naruto my favorite anime.” ” Well Ms Lovell most kids write about one of their parents or a great figure in history. At least your child is an original thinker.” They seemed very impressed with his french so he did well regardless of subject.
