TGIF

Thank God It's Friday! That means I get to sleep in tomorrow, I don't go to work till 4pm. I had to get up early this morning and take Doug to work at 5:30, came home and got another 90 mins of zzz's and now I'm getting ready to head to work.

Josh had his first school dance last night, I guess he had a good time, didn't dance or talk to the girl he likes, but had a good time anyway. LOL

After I get off tomorrow night I don't go back till next Thurs. that will give me a good chance to get everything in order before we go to the city with Josh on the 10th. We have to go in for his pre-op appointment and then we'll stay at the Holiday Inn for the night so he can do some swimming.

Anyway, hi ho hi ho, off to work I go!

Good? Morning

Rain Rain Go AWAY! I got a call last night to go into work today, Doug had to go in for 7 so we were all up early. It was still pitch dark when Josh went out to the bus, we need to get a better back light so he doesn't fall off the steps one of these mornings.

The bus just picked up little Miss Cranky Pants, she doesn't do mornings very well. She had 30 mins from the time she got ready for school till she had to leave and still waited till the last 2 minutes to have a fit because she couldn't find anything to take with her. It's a wonder I'm not bald!

Anyway, off to work, have a good day everyone! Run between the rain drops!

Breanna's Joke of the Day


Why did the golfer take 2 pairs of pants?

Incase he got a hole-in-one!

Pictures of my kiddos



One was taken at Oak Lawn Farm last month and the other was the first day of school.
Wow, over 2 years since I was here. LOL I forgot all about it till I DL changed hers. So what has changed and what has stayed the same.

On the same front, my mother is still alive and is still a Troll, some things never change.

On the changed front, I've worked at the Call Center, did home care, worked at Saan and now work at the Movie Gallery. Love the job I have now and hope to stay there. The boss is great, the hours are great, just about everything is great, with one minor problem, but there's always one thing right?

Josh started Jr High this year and Breanna started at the Dr John C Wickwire. They are growing up! Josh is keeping busy on the year book staff, he seems to love it. He's also getting ready for operation #12 on Oct. 11th. He's going to have staples put in his ankle to try and make it more straight and we hope to make the pain go away or at least lessesn.

Doug was away last week for some training in Nfld. He had a great trip but I think he's glad to be back with the kids and I. It was strange having him gone away, in almost 12 years we've only ever been apart for a night or 2. We missed him big time! So much for all the people in Liverpool who took bets on how long we would last eh? We've been together for 11.5 years and plan to stay that way for the rest of our lives.

We've got 2 weddings coming up on New Years Eve, my sister is getting married to her old boyfriend that I told you about in the other post and my brother is getting married to a lady he met when he moved to Bridgewater. I won't be going to either, Linda's because it's too far and too much $ and I won't go by myself and leave my family at home, Ricky's because the Troll will probably be there and I don't need that crap in my life. So we'll send along a gift and our love to each.

I just realized something, 17 years ago today was a terrible day. Linda and I went to Yarmouth for her to have her mamogram and came back to find our Grandfather had a stroke and wasn't doing too well, later that night he left us. My Grandparents were the most special people in the world, without them, Linda, Rick and I would never have had as good a life as we had. Many times they had to step in and take over being our parents, times when my mother decided life was too much and she'd just go in her shell, forgetting that she had 3 children she brought into the world. I miss my Grandparents every day and wish they were still here with us.

Anyway, time to go crawl back in bed, will try to remember that this is here and try and keep up my blog now. Maybe I should let someone know it's here eh? LOL Otherwise I'm the only one that reads it.
