One thing that I forgot to mention on the post about my flight – I also read the whole of Queen Kat, Carmel and St Jude get a life by Maureen McCarthy. It was great and saw me through a lot of the inflight time that I was awake! I somehow managed to miss this…

The Plane…
I left for JFK at about 2.30pm on Tuesday the 21st of December. It was a long trip and once I got to Terminal 7 the taxi driver had trouble processing my card. We swiped the thing close to ten times until it authorized I just wanted to start my trip! Within 15 or so…
I’ll be home for Christmas…

Another pic from the Benefit Dinner…
I just love this pic of Camille, Fran and I after the Benefit Dinner. Even though we were all exhausted it was a lovely end to the night. 🙂 Fran has the best get-a-pic-with-someone-famous luck out of any person I know. Her most recent meeting? Hugh Jackman!
Our first snow storm for the season
One thing about snow – it is SO peaceful. You can go to sleep with everything ‘normal’ and wake up in a Winter Wonderland without realising. Last night it was lovely – we left our blinds open as the sky in our area turns an eerie orange when it snows. The light this morning reflecting…

The 2009 Benefit Dinner is now over! The past few weeks had been a whirlwind in the office and it all culminated on Monday night at Cipriani on 42nd Street. We all had to get there at 9am to start stuffing the goody bags – this cannot be done until on the day and with…
My time as a Cleo covergirl…
I had mum scanning some old mass booklets from school (yes.. I kept them!) as I am trying to get the words of some of the catchy hymns we’d sing at school masses as I’d like to include one in the wedding. Anyway – in doing so, she came across this. My time as a…
This weekend…
We are home in the City this weekend but we have a house guest! *bounces* Yes… a guest in a studio… whoa. Bill’s niece Emily is coming down from Albany to stay for two nights. The last time she was in the city was for the Today show Dave Matthew’s concert. She got in at…
Other notes…
Best thing I have done so far… (apart from saying YES!) I was just about to register for TheKnot.com when I quickly went and set up a personal wedding email address. Hand downs – the best decision EVER! I am using this for anything that I have to ‘sign up’ for. So many websites to…
