Sex & The City Movie Review

One of the perks of Phoebe being at the in-laws is the ability to go out on a weeknight. We went to see "Sex and the City" last night. There were some things I liked and some things I didn't like. There are minor spoilers here, so if you haven't seen the movie yet (why the h*ll not!) don't read any further.



Things I Liked
- The final outcome for Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte
- The ways Charlotte wasn't so perfect
- The clothes!!!! The Vivienne Westwood wedding dress was to die for!!!


Things I Didn't Like So Much
- The final outcome for Samantha (and she's my favorite character, so really not happy!!!)
- How Charlotte's daughter was hanging out with the girls all the time and they had to watch what they said. Brady was in some of those hang out times, but not as much as Lily.

I almost forgot to mention my ultimate favorite part, which is when Samantha notices Miranda's hair issue "down there" when they are all sitting in their swimsuits in Mexico. Very close to her exact words are "I could be on Death Row and not have that issue you have going on there!" Leo and I discussed that coming home from the movies. Especially remembering that when I was pregnant with Phoebe, there was a point I stopped shaving because it was just too hard to reach. Well the actual day my water broke (I was only 36 weeks) I got really frustrated with what was going on "down there" and sat on the bottom of the shower stall that morning and took care of business. Funny thing is I didn't remember until a year later when I watched the video of her birth. Leo and I were watching it and all of a sudden it hit me "I was shaved completely bald and no one said a thing!" LOL. I guess that was my version of nesting. So ladies that check my blog that are pregnant, if you hit an unexplainable urge to shave parts of your body that the sun doesn't (usually) shine, you may be nesting!

Hmm, I actually never have an urge to shave down there, although I do sometimes suck it up for swimsuit season. We'll see if that changes...
That is so freaking funny, certainly brings a new level to nesting!

I really liked the movie too. I especially liked that they seemed older and they weren't out doing all the same parties and events like in the show. I thought it was also a little darker than the TV show and not as funny. And I thought they made Charlotte seem like an idiot in the movie - no substance at all. Well that's my two cents!

Oh that is so funny! I am so low maintenance that I neglect that very important area.

I didn't like the way Lily didn't say much and just sat around unlike most three years I know - just hanging?! Normally it's all-about-me at that age - not about hanging with adults. Yeah, I know - it's only a movie!

But I loved the SATC movie & would see it again. I'd share more but don't want to spoil the movie for anyone!

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head.  I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true.  This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either.  Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure.  I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week.  This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...

Phoebe's Fifth Grade School Picture

Here's Phoebe's 5th Grade School Picture.  I really like her in red or bright colors.  She's definitely becoming quite the little lady.
