Happy New Year People!

Happy New Year to my friends and family! May we all be bless with a wonderful 2006. I don't have a saying this year, I can't come up with anything that would beat my "Troll Free in 2003" diddy. LOL Oh yea, then I had "Trolls out the door in 2004". Now I'm old and have no imagination, maybe toinght when I get home from the dance. LOL

I know, no pics from Christmas yet, my computer is acting freaky, imagine that, it's paid for this week and I think it knows it. I didn't take many pictures anyway, so they are staying on the camera till I know they will get from point a, the camera, to point b, my computer. Maybe we'll get some good pics tonight at DL's. :)

And so for the last time in 2005, have a great one everyone!

Merry Christmas


Merry Christmas everyone! The weekend the kiddies have all been waiting for has come and it will go just as quick. I think I'm ready, not sure yet, I might be sure by tomorrow night. LOL I have to work tonight until 10 and tomorrow until 5 then we are off to my in-laws for the family pot luck supper.

It's a bittersweet time for me, I love to watch my children enjoy Christmas time but I also miss my family. My Dad and Nan, my Grammie and Grandfather, my Mom, who turned into a troll and I have nothing to do with and my sister and her children who are on the west coast.

Here's a poem I like to read around Christmas time:

Christmas In Heaven
I see the countless Christmas trees
around the world below
With tiny lights, like Heaven's stars,
reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
please wipe away the tear.
For I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear.
But the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you,
the joy their voices bring,
for it is beyond description,
to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart.
But I am not so far away,
we really aren't apart.
So be happy for me, dear ones,
you know I hold you dear.
And be glad I'm spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I sent you each a special gift,
from my heavenly home above.
I sent you each a memory
of my undying love.
After all, love is a gift more precious
than pure gold.
It was always most important
in the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other,
as my Father said to do.
For I can't count the blessings or love
He has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas and
wipe away that tear.
Remember, I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.

From our home to yours, have a wonderful Christmas and may only good come to your life in 2006.

Birthday party pictures







Oops! I forgot to post pictures from Miss Breanna's 8th birthday, so here ya go!

Good morning world

It's a grey day out there, here on the south shore of Nova Scotia. They are calling for 5-10 cms of snow before tonight. The panic was on last night when we realized Breanna didn't have any boots. So off to the store we go to get boots so now it's not calling for as much snow as it was.

Josh got his report card last week, great marks! First year in Jr. High and off for a week for surgery and he still pulled off a good report card. He had 98 on science, much better than his mother ever did. LOL

Breanna's Christmas concert is tomorrow night so she'll be all dolled up to sing a few songs. I hate going to the concerts, so many people, the older I get the more I hate crowds.

Well I think I'll head off for a nap, LOL, or try to anyway. Have a great one!

Good Morn...oops...Good Afternoon!

I went back to bed this morning when the kids left for school so I'm not sure what time of day it is. LOL Been working lots this week, split shifts and lots of nights so I'm very tired. I work tonight and then again in the morning so I thought I'd grab a few extra zzzz's when I had the chance. I'll be glad when Sunday gets here. I work tonight, tomorrow, Friday night and Saturday night. Saturday afternoon is Breanna's birthday party, we are going to paint some pottery. Then on Sunday Nanny & Papa will come down for supper and cake, because Sunday is her birthday.

Today I have to take Josh to the pediatrition for his check up. We went to the city on Monday to get his leg checked. The Dr said it looks good and showed me the x-ray of his foot, it looks so weird with those big staples in it. He isn't impressed that Josh is still having pain, since he doesn't have feeling in most of his foot. But he's got permission to go back to normal as much as he can.


Speaking of Drs appointments, I have to go for my yearly CAT scan next Friday on my back. I'm sure it won't show much different but Gary likes to check to see how much worse it gets every year.

Along with everything else this weekend, we'll try and get the Christmas lights up so I can turn them on the 1st. I'll soon start to panic about not being ready, I do it every year. I'm sure if I sat down and figured out what I have to get it won't be as much as I think. It'll come and go just as it does every year.

Anyway, time to dry my hair and get the laundry done, Josh will be home at 2 and we'll head to town for his Drs appointment.

LATER Peoples!

Older pictures

I found some of my older pics and thought I'd share.
This one was taken the same place that I took them this year. I love this one, can't you see the attitude!?!
This was taken just a month or so before Grampie passed away.

This one must have been the year before he got sick.

Off to the vet today


Time for my shots, oops, I mean Keisha's shot. She's also getting her nails trimmed, damn they are sharp! She's such a little brat! She's does not like to cuddle at all, little meanie. While I'm in Bridgewater today I'll go over to the theater and pick up our Harry Potter tickets for this weekend. DL and I take the big kids, it's a yearly thing. LOL We are going to try and make the 6:30 show since DL has to work Sat. morning and I have to work Sunday morning.

I've been sitting here downloading Christmas music, I'm too lazy to go try and find my CDs from last year. I'm a happy woman now that I found Chrismtas in The Valley, that was my Dad's favorite Christmas song.

So besides the vet today, I have to go pick up some stuff at Sears, go to Breanna's school and order her school sweatshirt, pick Josh up at his school because he has a yearbook meeting and then come home, find some supper and head to CanSkate.

Later people!
