WOW...i have SO much to share with you!



It's been snowing up here in the north. That's a good thing because it's forcing me to admit that the holiday season is soon upon us. And that means I need to get moving! The last three months have really flown by. How is it that we have all these hours in a day and yet things still remain waiting? Why does my list never end? I find that I just get going and then something knocks me off course. Usually a daughter or a husband. Lucky for them that I have an amazing ability to remember everything that they forget isn't it? Wouldn't it be nice to have a week at home without anyone else here? That makes me giddy. I mean I would miss them, but think of all the stuff I could accomplish? Projects would have a beginning and an end! Everything would find a home! All the laundry would be put away! Wow, that sounds like a beautiful thing......



This morning I had to deliver Emma to band practice for 7:15 am so I was out enjoying the view. The sun was rising and it was hitting every snow crystal just right. Of course my camera wasn't able to catch the beauty of it all. But I was there. Standing out in the yard in my jammy bottoms and bed head. Waving to the neighbours passing by. I don't really care if they think I'm an odd duck. Because I know I'm not. That's what really matters isn't it?



So I mentioned before that we have a new cutie in our family. Hudson, my nephew. He already knows how to flirt. Us girls kinda like him.



I have been unpacking boxes. Finally, I feel like I can start this because we're close to spreading out around here. The additional space is going to be wonderful. Anyway....these boxes. Wow I have a bunch of stuff. But it's really good stuff, you know?
I am so excited to be organized. So in between all the busy days ahead I will be puttering about, making lists, looking for lost socks, catching dust bunnies, finding loved treasures, remembering where everybody should be and feeding the pets. Oh and I'll be grocery shopping, cooking and scrubbing the bathtub. And also getting out the Christmas lights and putting up a tree, baking cookies. o my gosh......soak in the tub too....and making blog entries of course.

what's going on?


Sorry for the huge gap there....
This is what happened. My computer died. And I lost my photos. And now my camera is not doing what it is supposed to. Honestly, it is such a bummer! Kind of threw me for a loop.
Not like real life has stood still though.
New baby nephew arrived Sept 1st. Little Hudson has already stolen the hearts of everyone who has met him.
The girls have gotten back into the groove of school days again. Elsie is going to have the best year ever...really wonderful teacher... Emma is in highschool. Cell phone in her pocket. I don't think I need to worry about her.
I need to fix my blog glitch.
Working on it. Promise.
