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!

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.

So what's new...
I had my hysterectomy 2 weeks ago today, it's been a long 2 weeks that's for sure. I didn't realize it would knock the shit out of me like it did. Oh well, I'm on the road to recovery, never to have to run to the store for Tampax again! LOL I figure the Tampax company will probably go bankrupt now, without my support.
My house is still standing, it's been vacumed twice in 2 weeks. *eek* Doug is doing good with the laundry, and dishes but aside from that he doesn't mind anything else, so it doesn't get done less I ask him to do it.
My sissy has a new love. They dated when they were in high school and he just came back this way for a visit last month. He lives in BC and it's looking like my sis will be moving out there. This breaks my heart, she's the only family I have left, but I want her to be happy. So I'll wipe the tears away and smile my biggest smile, and send her on her way. She's 11 years older than me but we are very close. We talk at least 2 times a day on the phone. Look out phone bill!
Well it's time to head back to the couch for my nap. I feel like I'm 90!

Been a long time eh? The last time, I had just gotten my job, and now tonight is my last night. LOL It's been a great couple months at the store, I now know that I enjoy going out to work. They have asked me to come back in the fall and I'm going to. I love getting out of the house for a few hours a week, and the paycheque sure doesn't hurt.
I'm all excited about going out this weekend. DL's SIL, Tracy, is having a Fantasia party and we are going. I'm looking forward to it, and also looking forward to getting Donna-Leigh out of the house, away from her kids and seeing her have a good time. My best buddy has had a busy 10 weeks. She's doing renovations to her house, right now it's a mess, but I can't wait to see the finished product. She also has a beautiful new car. :) So back to the party, we get to go out, have a few drinks and enjoy the evening with the girls. It will be my last "night out" for awhile...
A week from tomorrow I go for my hysterectomy. Am I scared? Yup, scared shitless at this point. But trying not to drive everyone nuts about it. I hope to be out of the hospital on Sat. at the latest, I don't do hospitals well. LOL At the same time, my "mother" is going to have some tests done on her heart, why the hell bother? I can answer that one, she doesn't have one! There, lots of medical money saved. ;)
My sissy has found the love of her life. His name is Paul and he lives in BC. The funny part about it is that they used to go out 27 years ago, that only happens in the movies right? Anyway, we hope that Paul is going to get a job here and re-locate quite soon. This makes me very happy, because as much as I want my sis to be happy, I'd hate for her to move to BC. She's all I have left of my family around here, I'd sure miss her.
