I have two more weeks of work with the nanny family before the leave for the Hamptons. I will be staying in the city this summer, and working as a hostess at a very nice 5th Avenue Restaurant called Brasserie 8 1/2 . In addition to the restaurant job, I will be babysitting as much as possible, auditioning, and going to lots of dance classes.
Some highlights from the past month:
** Taking Anna to watch Glee being filmed, and we saw some of the cast!
**Seeing my former ballet teacher, Laurie, when she and her daughter came to the city. Our visit was too brief, but seeing her was such a treat!
**Attending the NC Society Annual Barbeque. I expected jean-clad southerners spewing "y'alls" with live music, a pig pickin, kids running around barefoot, and lemonade. Instead it was yet another uppity New York event with a bunch of people dressed in all black, and an open wine/beer bar. Despite the New Yorkiness of the whole thing, and the lack of bluegrass music, I was happy to spend time with my good friend Fran and other North Carolinians.
**Watching beautiful Shannon KELLER get married, and spending the weekend with some of my favorite North Carolina girls. Shannon and Adam were so happy, the beach was beautiful, and I love my friends.
**Spending Mother's Day Sunday in NC with my awesome family, and giving her Tina Fey's "Bossypants," with a personal note to her in the front cover.
**Rosa Mexicana with William, Geoffrey, Dayna, Cam, Katie, Sara and Sean for Dayna's Birthday!
**Babysitting sweet little 11-week-old Henry Martin. He is so cuddly, he makes the best faces, and he absolutely loves me. I literally got to lie on the couch and watch The View all morning while he snuggled up on my chest and slept. Yes Dad, I did change his diaper...four times. And I'm a pro at it.
*FINALLY catching up with sweet Jake. We had scones at Alice's Tea Cup, and it was lovely to see him and hear about all the exciting things happening in his life!
**Chris McHenry's spring visit! We did the rowboats! John Marsland would be proud of Chris' exceptional rowing skills. We only got stuck when i was rowing...
**Attending a celebration of the arts at the UNC, held in NYC at the University Club. It was great to hear all the fabulous things happening in Chapel Hill, meet some successful Tarheels in the arts, and catch up with former professors, such as Dr. Terry Rhodes.
**The start of The Bachelorette! My girls and I are doing a bracket for this season and I could not be more excited.
So overall, it's been a pretty awesome month. I promise to be better about staying up-to-date on this blog over the summer! Hopefully I will have some interesting updates! :)
