Between ladies making arrangements for dinners and drinks and lists of who is who and NOW this fun idea….I think I am going to look a bit like a dribbling idiot at the BlogHer conference. And I will have my camera..for sure. But will probably be either too shy to take a pic or be […]
The Heat Has Broken
I am such a loser…I seriously cannot function in high temps. Today is Mid to high 20’s….with a breeze. MUCH better. We also have extra fans. Hopefully everyone will sleep tonight. Though Caity has a cold and that is making her miserable. So today went a LOT better. Though I am really not cut out […]
Wow is it ever freaking hot
And it happened all of a sudden so none of us had a chance to adjust… It is like 29 degrees today which is around 90 for the Americans. Tomorrow is forecast to hit around 32 here.   Ouch. What am I going to do with all these overheated kids???
Life is Strange…
I never ever pictured myself sitting at home surrounded by kids.  I never EVER imagined saying yes to looking after someone else’s kids. Yet here I am. I always wanted kids of my own, but have never been a kid person, if that makes any sense.  Yet here I am. I was told by […]
Oops….
Blurry proof that we are foolish and fertile. Very early in the game…only 3 or 4 weeks at the most. Figured it was safe to tell YOU guys, because we told the Nana’s now…..I just have to tell the rest of the family and friends…..they will no doubt just roll their eyes! My best friend […]
Saturday Morning at the Farmers Market
We actually go our acts together this am and headed to the Trout Lake Farmers Market. Fantastic produce and artistic ‘things.’ I picked up some Sun-Dried Tomato Feta and some raspberries and some loose salad greens. Yum. The kids got balloon animals. We rapidly ran out of cash. Organic is not cheap. We hit some […]
Talking vs. Acting
It was too hot to sleep last night, so I was thunking instead. I think the BlogHer Act and the Canadian version are great. I think it is a perfect way to use this medium to build a unified voice behind one or a few causes and issues. But it got me wondering…..and then I […]
Good Grief
I looked after ONE neighbours kid for 4 hours today and it ended up with him wanting to go home because they got tired of me scolding MY kids who kept muttering STUPID at the tv when they were having a Bert and Ernie break. They started the day with Adam sulking. Then Caity and […]
Happy Fourth …
To all the American Bloggers out there.. I hope you have a great day!
