Todayyy and AWAYYY

Went to Maggies Place today. It was the last "You Make The Difference". I demonstrated knitting (with karen's help) to Brandi. And vowed again never to knit again. Crochet on the other hand is getting another try. Its so darn easy and fun.

My landlord's man came over and put weather stripping on our back door. That should take care of some drafts back there which is awesome. He is going to check out our drip on a warm day outside and see if theres anythign he can do.

Had left over mac and hamburger for \lunch with donavan. Going to go get Samara in a few minutes.

God I am exciting.

Since jen mentioned it in an offhand way ;) Thank for the congrats adn all on getting away.

I was told yeserday that I ahve my funding and accomadations. Im going to be Karens partner. We're going to bum a ride with a health nurse (lol) and be bunkies for the night. Ask me how excited I am.

This is what I am attending. Jealous???? YOu should be!

I am so excited. The second day there will be a forum on Peer councilling. As a Breastfeeding Peer phone councillor I am going to learn SO FREAKING MUCH.

:P

I ahve nothing to blog right now. I am tired but cant get to sleep lately. I go to bed and lay there trying not to keep kevin up for a very long time. I finally pass out only to be rudely awakened a few unrested hours later by Donavan's determination not to allow me to sleep in.

I am so ready for a vacation from my kiddies.

Going away teh 4th and 5th will be nice but Im a bit more excited about Kev's work party the 19th.

:D:D

Finally the Blog About Vacation

My vacation was AWESOME then it was over in a flash of relaxation.



When we got there we unpacked and then took a stroll to the beach. It was everyminute of the 30 minutes to get there I tell ya ;) The tide was out and so we (Kev, I and Troy) took a walk way out on the ocean floor. Iwas in heaven. When We got back we fired up the barbeque. Steak, backed potato, and veggies. YUM. When troy left kev and I took a walk to the river. It was gorgeous! We spent the days relaxing and having a few drinks. The evenings we had bonfires and chatted a bit.

We both agree'd that it was SO odd being completely alone. We are NEVER completely alone these days. There is always the computer adn xbox and we are always expecng someone to drop in.
The solitude was nice.

I will add mroe pictures later, i am uploading them to facebook now LOL.

So excited!

We're all packed besides fridge items and the camera batteries that I am charging as we speak... I type.

A lady is supposed to come this morning toget the baby clothes I put on Kijiji. Theres 1 lady who offered 40 on the elliptical (i was going to put 70 but i just want it gone at this point.) i havent heard back from her after i said i would take the 40. I had another woman message me afterward saying she wanted it would pay the 50 on it and pick it up friday. So YAY! its gone regardless ;) I can start planning for that space.

Well... I gotta go get tidying my livingroom. I want to come home to a clean house. My bathroom is scrubbed and alot of clothes got put away yesterday :)

I am SO excited

Have I said yet how HOT its been?!?!?!

HOLY COWBOYS!

And now Donavan stinks. Ew... Thats a mess I am NEVER looking forward to cleaning... I need to think about breakfast and then figure a few things out.

Kevin doesnt think we have enough money for our trip but we are GOING... YES WE ARE...

I think were going for a walk with roylene this afternoon. Should be fun. :):)

It is Finally Over

My funk has lifted and I can go on being a good person again... Instead of a 2 headed dragon.

I have been so cranky with my friends and depressed in general for the past few weeks that I just wanted to stay in my little cocoon(sp). I didnt think it would be this bad but it is this bad and worse. Ive even been avoiding my friends facebooks, phonecalls, and blogs. Isnt that sad?

I hate that were stuck for teh summer. I SOOOO wanted a car before now. I even expected we would SOMEHOW have one. I couldnt face the idea of NO beach and NO camping all summer. My poor kids wont be able to experience my favourite activities this summer... I tried to make myself feel better by saying things like, "Well I have Iris's campout to look forward to...." and "Sherry will be going to Five Islands quite a bit this summer...."

The fact of that matter is Iris's campout is in August and ALL OF MY FRIENDS have albums after albums of camping pictures on FB. They are calling to tell me what a great time their babies had camping for teh first time.
And A) sherry hasnt seriously mentioned going to the beach yet and she is one of those gas conciencious(sp) people who see the price of gas and immediately say "Well, I guess we're not going anywhere this summer".

(Ill add a minor rant just for the sake of SCREAMING IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!!!:

So I am planning Kev and My little trip to whereever we can get with no car and kev mentions it to Sherry and she chats with me about the little places for a few minutes then she says, "I should plan my vacation soon... I'm thinking Upper Clements would be nice." Um OUCH. Upper Clements WOULD be nice. Thanks for teh reminder that I am having a shitty little summer.

Ive even been avoiding Krystle because ALL SHE TALKS ABOUT IS CAMPING and the BEACH. I cant take it... )

So why am I feeling that BIT better?

Kev and I are going to look into renting a cabin for a couple days. Ill have all the details tomorrow. It will be relaxing, romantic, time actually spent TOGETHER without the television, computer or video games. I cant wait. Once I get the information I am going to be planning EVERYTHING. Food and drinks to take, activities, I am SO excited. I can handle all of this shitty summer crap and really look forward to it. All of my days spent in my house, hateful and NOT CLEANING for the lack of energy or all of my days walking TO THE MALL to get out of my hot little house will be worth it becuase I (WE!) WILL have a good time. And I cant wait! I will be counting down the days!
