The flip has been switched




Yesterday no matter where I looked it was green, you have to realize the day before it was not but yesterday it was. The grass is green, the plants are green, and there are little little green leaves on some of the trees. It is just like a flip was switched and now there is color. I personally love it. March 21 may be the first day of spring on the calendar but where I live spring does not hit until May. March can still be very cold and snowy, this April it snowed the whole dang month it seemed, and we even have had snow in May, record rainfal last Thursday and Friday and that has led to this switch being flipped. My island on the river is almost under water. That is scary, flooding hopefully will not take place. But when the snowfall in the mountains melt and come downstream we may be in trouble.
Had to take DD to school early today for her field trip to Edmonton Science Centre, I hope she has fun. I know when I was in grade one we didn't go on a field trip at all let alone one to Edmonton.
My jaw is really hurting and seems off its place for opening and closing which is quite possible after yesterdays appointment.
Mothers Day coming up, I think we will pack up the van and take the family out to the farm to see my 88 year old MIL. The kids have a blast on the farm. This year it seems more about celebrating her and my Mom than it does me. We are not sure just how long either one will be around. It is all about them.
My Mom bought DD and DS a rose on the weekend, the white one opened up so pretty, which is rare for a white rose. And can I just say I want a good camera, I need a good camera, and then I need to learn how to use it.

I believe Jeff's baby is due in early July. And the question you asked on my site was who is the 3rd team? Well, there are 3 major Hendrick drivers: JJ, JG, and Kyle Busch (who has also won a COT race). 4th driver is Casey Mears who can't seem to do anything.

April 19 is a rough day

20 years ago today I miscarried a baby. I can imagine myself with a 20 year old running around. Maybe even a grandma, that is a rough thought. For years when I could not conceive I wondered if I was being punished for miscarrying my first. I was young, got pregnant in college, and was sick all the time. I had morning sickness 24 hours a day every single day, I lost a lot of weight. I was alone and I was scared. I went to bed one night feeling very ill, I woke up two days later in the hospital. I had hemarraged and been uncousious, and almost died. I miscarried in my fifth month. When I missed college some friends tried to reach me and couldn't so called my ex and he had the landlord let him in. It saved my life. I have always felt so guilty that I was just that little bit relieved that it had happened. I was so young, and on my own, and did not want a child raised the way that I had been raised. Feelings just all over the place. It hit me like a ton of bricks again w

Well I made it and I survived it

I am finally 40. Entering the prime of my life. I think it is all how you look at things. So if I look positive it will be postitive. This is the decade that is going to be about me. I had an adult decade on education, I had an adult decade on family, now I want one on me. Thanks Jenni for calling last night, I miss you and you are welcome to come back to Alberta and visit any time. I got the cutest birday card from Poncho with her original photography on it of a koala, I love it. I feel spoiled and loved and it is nice to feel that way. I got a cake sent to me at work yesterday, a balloon arrangement with a teddy bear and chocolates and some basic grey paper. A bunch of girls from SJ went together and organized it all. I feel so honoured to be counted as one of their friends. I got to talk to geminigirl (Carrie) yesterday as well, she is one of the sweetest people I know. Thanks for calling.

Back to school

Image
DD first day of grade three is today. She is very excited to be going back, and hoping she gets her dream teacher. There was a fiasco last year at the start of school and DD started with her dream teacher and then they moved her twice more and she ended up with a split teacher room. This year she hopes she gets Mrs. K, for good. I hope the school has their act together this year. She didn't want me to drive her, she didn't want me to follow the school bus, she wanted to do it on her own just like last year. She was happy to have mom wait at the bus stop with her though.
