Thank ful Thursday

1) Gotta love this a pair of pants I have not wore in over two weeks, been washed, dryed, folded and put away. I wear today. I find a ten dollar bill in perfect condition in the pocket. Makes me go mmmmm.

2) Mommy can I have an apple. Sure sweetie. I don't want it with pee on it Mom. Took me a minute to realize he meant peeling. LOL

3) Mommy Mommy come with me, now. So I go. Look out the window isn't it the most beautiful purple you ever saw. Ummm yes, thinking to myself OMG what a storm cloud.

4) Alexis Alexis come quick. Will you take a picture of me hugging Mommy. (This melted my heart)

5) Waking with a vicious storm overhead, hearing the wind, thunder, hail slamming the house, hoping one of the kids would wake up and come to bed so I wouldn't be all alone. That was funny. Storms don't generally frighten me, but that one last night out of a deep sleep sure did. The kids slept right through it.

6) Being Thursday gymnastics has a program for the parents to watch today. DD asking me to please bring her little brother so he can watch. Sweet.

7) Finally shooting on completely manual with manual focus on my Canon XTI and having decent pictures from it. WOOT WOOT

8) My life that I built for myself is so precious to me. I take great pride in that which I have worked hard to achieve.

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.
