Clean socks are a privilege, not a right

Feeling Groovie…

May 1, 2008 by Kerry Sauriol 4 Comments

And no…it must be due to the prescription drugs I am on..that and some good sleep perhaps!?

I woke up in the middle of the night with a really crappy headache.  I grabbed a Tylenol 3 as I while I knew there was an Imitrex SOMEWHERE in the house, I wasn’t sure where.

So, I passed out with that sucker, but still had the headache.  Adam woke up TOTALLY cranky and he has the same cough I do, so we agreed he could stay home – as long as they BOTH promised to lay low – which they sort of did,  and I managed to rest VERY well after taking the newly found Imitrex pill.

I got up around 11 and have been hanging with the kids…messing around.  Watching tv, and feeling really really good.

Heh.

Like TOTALLY relaxed.  Even the mess in this house has not soured my mood.

Weird

It has been busy around here too…and fun busy.

Tuesday night I got myself organized to head down to Sophia’s Books for the great Rockabye Book Signing with the gorgeous author Rebecca Woolf! That is the Ms Woolf or Girl’s Gone Child fame.

She had her friend/assistant/troublemaker Dana of Bite My Cookie hanging with her…another new blogger from the West for me to meet.

I had the honour of driving Mo-Wo of Mother Woman down there.

(there are a LOT of links in this post….wow!)

Aaaand Gwen of Left Coast Mama ANOTHER WetCoast Woman was there!  So WCW were REPRESENTIN!!!!!

And thank you Gwen for a FLATTERING (sort of) photo of me with the lovely Rebecca.

Here is Ms. Woolf while reading from Rockabye….am reading the book right now and she is so good.  So honest.  Wow.

Anyway.

Mo-Wo sounded like she had sort of plans with R and D and so me being me…invited myself along!

I used my car as a lure!

The southerners were chilly!

Anyway (again)….I had a great time.   Rebecca and Dana are a hoot and nice, and friendly and funny and kind and yadda yadda…you who have met them already know this.  I don’t ‘hang’ with Mo-Wo enough and so that is always a pleasure too!

I feel really honoured to meet them and really hope I can meet more bloggy ladies..including the rest of my WetCoastWomen crew and all the others that I link to and read….MILLIONS!

I hope they enjoyed Vancouver.

Wednesday…I could barely speak after my ‘wild’ night out and my yucky cough.

We had a meeting with Caity’s Preschool teacher about her not wanting to attend.  They are convinced it is a phase.  They want us to stop being so wishy washy.  We will try.  But both CH and I have the same misgivings…but are willing to give it one more chance.

She has been VERY clingly lately….a new thing for her.

And naked.

A lot.

We then got the Nana to watch them and headed down to attend our first WordCamp.

Miss 604 – Rebecca Bollwitt – explains it the best with her live blog of the event.

It was a packed room with laptops littering the floor.  There was much live blogging, twittering and insta photosharing going on.

I quite enjoyed the presentation about development and design…encouraged me to learn MORE.

I was quite happy to meet Lisa of MostlyLisa and Miss604 herself.

I (there is a lot of ‘I’ here today)  can’t say I learned anything spectacular, but enjoyed seeing an enthusiastic local crowd of Worpressers, and I do plan on trying to attend more local ‘techie’ things too.

Sooooo….

Apart from the migraine this morning, things are going pretty good.

Or at least we ain’t stressing about it all anyway….and that is they do it!

    Sounds great. I wish there were more of those bloggy get-togethers/book signing things in San Diego.

    Also, my daughter gets naked a lot too.

    […] Husband and I managed to attend the Word Press Camp Vancouver in April.  We were impressed by the huge turn out and I loved getting to peek at some of the blog […]
