Sofie

Here's a picture of mom's puppy Sofie...we just love her, to the point of acting like an idiot with her...Mike thinks I've gone nuts!

Good bye George

George is our Dodge Dakota truck...which has been traded in for a new Dodge Caliber...trying to be practical...gas in a little engine or a great big V8...although I'll miss the V8 getting on the highway. Here's a picture of a Caliber, ours is black though...

Thumper

I think I am going to pull a Thumper today (the little rabbit in Bambi)..."Mama always says if you have nothing good to say, then say nothing at all".....leave it at that...

PS Work sucks!!

Monday

It's Monday and the sun is shining and it's suppose to shine all week...God, I wish it was last year and I wasn't working...I miss EI!

Elysia got her hair cut this weekend and loved it until she had to try and do it herself...it's too short, it won't go in a ponytail, it's sticking out....AGH! I tried the "it will grow back" line...no help. At least her mother gave her money for lunch today, so she didn't have to try and fit it in her bag.

Graham had a fever Friday and Saturday but seems fine now, I do think the poor kid was tired. I still don't think he's sleeping the best...lots of talking in his sleep.

Did I mention my husband, Mike...for the record he didn't watch movies all day Friday, he cleaned and did laundry.

Happy Children

Both of my children left in a snit today...I'm such a good mother...!! The eldest was ticked because I made her a lunch (I know...how horrible), she wanted to buy lunch because there was no room left in her postage stamp sized school bag...boohoo! The youngest was ticked because I made him dress for the weather (I know...how horrible). He got a new sweatshirt yesterday with Coldbrook School on it and wanted to wear it and not have it covered, it's still cold out though so I made him wear a vest over it...mother of the year I am!

On another note, Elysia's team played soccer last night, she had a beautiful shot on net and the keeper made a wonderful save...what's up with that, the ones she let in were easy shots but she just has to stop Elysia's.

One of the ladies I work with wanted Elysia to babysit last Sat night, overnight. I said no, I needed her for my scrapbooking expedition...thank Goodness!! They just found out they have lice in the house, I know it happens but I don't want it to happen in my house...so my scrapbooking saved us hours of picking nits!

PS Did I mention my husband, Mike, who is off today and I am sure will watch at least one Clint Eastwood movie...

Work Work Work

No...it's not my desk, but it feels that way...lots of work to do, should keep me out of trouble!

PS Did I mention my hard working husband, Mike!

April Fool's Day

Happy April Fool's Day...got the kids good this morning. Elysia was just getting her coat on and I told her the bus was going by and she freaked out....hahahahaha....then Graham was upstairs brushing his teeth and I yelled up the bus was coming early, he threw his brush in the sink, spit out the toothpaste and started running down the stairs...when I yelled out April Fool's to him he told me "mom, you're genius"....I know...hahahahahahaha....

PS Did I mention, my husband, Mike!
