oh for a better week NEXT week!

Ever had a day that felt like it wasn't right? nothing worked out correctly? noone said the right thing? guess what? that was this WHOLE week!!!

argh.

here is for waiting for a better week!

And a long goodnight!

The beginning of Spring again! how lovely to be out of the cold and nasty weather and on to the gorgeous days of Spring! I just mowed the grass for the first time this spring and it smelled wonderful! the only good thing about HAVING to mow the lawn, besides how pretty it looks afterwards! the smell is key...and flowers popping out of the ground is always a welcome sight. Mind you, around here, you could still end up with snow up the yin-yang and it could be July... Canada and winter are synonymous you know... can't have one without the other! On the other hand tho, we don't have the miseries of a long and hot summer either... sunset at 11:30 PM and sunrise at 4:00 AM... for the hearty souls out there, when you stay up all night and look at the sky, you see the sun make its descent, and then just watch the glow as it goes around the horizon... and then, presto! it shows up on the other side popping over the horizon again! no real darkness then... we are just heading into this time and I have been a good girl and going to bed at night instead of staying up to watch this phenomenon.... who knows, one good date could produce this effect again! oh wait, a date. Maybe I will just do it on my own with the muttster.... less hassle that way!

Happy Mothers Day!

In dedication to my Mom on Mother's day.... happy Mom's day! I actually have NO clue what she was up to today as she is in Washington somewhere but, as this pic is taken in WA, I thought it quite appropriate.... I realise that my father is also in the pic....( they do seem to be in pics together quite frequently....) but as it is Mom's day, and as without Dad there would be no 'mom', I thought it appropriate that he be represented as well!

HAPPY MOM'S DAY! and come home soon!

Oh, & I HAVE been taking care of your lawn while you were gone... honest! :)

beauty... look up!

Have you ever jsut stopped and looked at the sky and thought to yourself, wow, I can't believe that there is such beauty in this world... gorgeous! of course, at this point, usually a bird flies overhead and ends up pooping on your head, but otherwise, breathtaking! :)

This was the scene behind my house and I was struck by the white fluffiness in soft contrast to the blue of the sky and I thought WOW. and then I ducked...my luck is not so good with the birdies.

Wishing for a rainy day....

So, another rainy day... a perfect day to be home and watching movies on tv while drinking coffee! Unfortunately, these days never seem to hit on the right days off from work...or if you are off then there are 17 other things that need to be done so you don't get to just slough off... Remember when you were a kid and all you had to DO is slough off? I completely remember thinking that there was nothing more boring then not doing anything! I now wish that I had a tenth of that time now and and a fifth of the energy I had back then! Ah well, if I knew then what I knew now, well... then this would be a completely different story, wouldn't it?

SO, here is hoping for another rainy day to have 'off' and with high hopes for nothing to do that day...and on the other side, I don't have to clean my room!

Gilmore Girls

ok...so how many of you loved Gilmore girls? and don't you think that they should have continued it??? I think that for sure they should have followed the 'girls' down the road a little bit more... Mind you, the problem with that is that it would have killed the show...I mean, you can't do too much with a show that is all about just the two girls without it getting mundane...unless they start to go off on Miss Patty or Kirk... that could have gotten fun! But it is a fine line as to when to let a show just die a natural death. Perhaps we should have a day of Gilmore and gilmoreism's to celebrate the show.... what do you think??? Perhaps, to start, we should all speak really fast and then start looking for a good looking guy in a backwards baseball hat..... :)

Then again, a day spent on the couch with the entire series is an excellent way to #1, stop looking for the baseball caps, and #2, not sprain our tongues trying to speak fast. So... I will assume that you are on board for this too.... I will go order pizza~

I'm BACK!

WELL... at last I have a new computer! I have a way to communicate without the darn thing giving up the ghost! I swear, all I had to do was breathe on this blessedthing and it froze. Wow. But now that I have a snazzy new computer with all the bells and whistles(yes it gets loud in here!), I am going to be better about posting on here! YAY! or...I will have nothing to say and until life gets more interesting, there will be nothing new. Hey, at least Iam honest on this.
