  • Time is of the essence ....

    Time .... it is a hot commodity these days...
    So busy with being the Mom... the boss.... the taxi driver... the wife.... the baker.... the teacher....Avon lady.... I am really in need of some time for ME!

    My Open House is in a couple of weeks and I am only beginning to prepare for it this weekend.

    I have MUCHO to do but can't seem to find time to do it all.

    I may need to give something up next year.... not too sure what it will be....

    I am saving up for a Lap top and a scrap booking retreat... those are going to be my Christmas Presents to me!

    Not much time this morning but wanted to get a blurb in....

    Ive been listening to the secret on cd in the car for a week...... got myself a few new mantras.... we shall see......

    Later days.

  • Its the first day of the long weekend here.... Canadian Thanksgiving is on Monday.... and I am tired before I have even gotten started.

    I need to kick start myself into action as I need to make a big bunch of pies today. Ive been to the grocery store and picked up my new whisks for my Kitchen aid... been out to lunch with the hubby and now I need to roll up my sleeves and put on my apron.

    I'm making 4 apple pies today and gingerbread. I bought the pumpkin pies because they were HUGE pies for $7.49 from Costco and I couldn't resist. The bloody pumpkin costs more than that and the work to make it... well I couldn't beat the price for already made so I cheated!

    Going to my best friends for dinner tomorrow night and then to my Brothers and SIL's for another thanksgiving on Monday night.... a lot of eating out and no dieting this weekend.

    Ok off to find a pepsi and my apron to get started!

    Later days....

  • Life is sooooooooooo busy now that I work.
    I find time to update my facebook status but never my xanga. In fact I never have time to blog anymore at all it seems like and on the off chance I do have time, there is always someone looking over my shoulder and snooping at what I am doing. I no like that!

    My oldest is sick right now.... Doc tonight said its probably NOT the H1N1 virus but he wasn't ruling it out and gave her antibiotics, extreme cough syrup and sent her to bed for 7 days. YIKES.
    She is so bummed. She always gets sick and ruins big plans she has made. Almost always when she has something fun planned she has to bail on it cause she gets ill. Its a big fat drag. This weekend she has a Movie party planned with a bunch of friends. I always let her have one the Friday her Dad is away Hunting. This year she was/is excited to have invited a bunch of her NEW friends from her Drama improve group. Now she is going to have to cancel. She was going to do this scrapbook thing with me on Saturday.... but not now... Now her week and her weekend will be spent in bed watching movies she seen a hundred times before because she has seen every movie going at least that many times.

    Myron is gone for the next 10 days. He is off on his annual hunting trip. He is thinking this is the last year he goes with his family. Usually it is him, his Dad, his brother and his bil.... sometimes his buddy goes too. The past two years the nephew who is 15 has been going, which pushed the "buddy" out cause there isn't enough sleeping bunks for more than 5. The nephew going has changed the dynamics of the whole trip... its no longer the "boys" get away because one of the kids is coming along now and not only is he coming along but he has been designated to ride along with his Uncle Myron there and back. This kid has absolutely no social skills and you can not carry a conversation with him, its a bit torturous to have to ride along with him for 9 hours in a confined space. This summer I tried hard to have a conversation with this particular nephew about all sorts of things and it was awful.... I can't imagine 9 hours of having to try.
    I told Myron him and his buddy should just do their own thing and have their own hunting boys get away. So I think he is thinking he might do that next year and give the family some excuse.

    Im working like a mad woman... not that Im not a mad woman anyhow! LOL

    Kaity is playing soccer like crazy. She joined the league again this fall and she is also playing on the school soccer team. FUN.... for her! LOL

    Harry sold some paintings this summer that he did.....

    Cool beans hey?
    Anyhow... I need to get   going... phone is ringing... email is buzzing.... blah blah blah....

    Later days...

    40 today....

    Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends out there....

    Wow, I am officially 40 years old today!
    How the heck did that happen? I can hardly believe it.
    I am 40 years old and have been a wife for 17 years... I have three children ages 15, 13 and 10.....

    I always wished for what I have and although I don't own my own home, I have everything else I could ever want! I am truly a very lucky girl.
    I always knew when I was young that my career was going to be being a Mom.... and it has been and still is.

    Funny how the birthdays keep coming and age lines show up here and there... we gain a few extra pounds along the way but somewhere we sort of stop aging inside...... I think I stopped a few years ago... Now if I could just get my body to regress to it's 20 something shape.....

    This morning I am going to pick up my girlfriend and we are going to try to find a place that is open on this Canada Day where we can get a pedicure....
    My family wants me to keep busy today as they are planning a big party for me on Saturday ( shhhhhhh it's a surprise) and so they want to use today to get things done....
    I am planning on taking my camera to the party and I am planning on blogging about it as soon as I get a chance. I'm thrilled that my whole family is working together on something so special for me....

    We will be celebrating our Wedding anniversary tonight but in actuality Saturday is our 17th year together... but we are too busy to do it then I'm thinking
    We are going to celebrate with our kids and enjoy the evening together, we just haven't decided doing what yet. Low key though as even though today is a holiday tomorrow it is back to work at the crack of dawn.

    Crazy week for me turning 40 and celebrating Myron and mines 17th wedding anniversary..... I love it!

    Later days..........
