Still snowing




I think it has snowed every single day this past week. I am tired of winter, truly I am.




The kids and I and DH are all sick with a cold and cough. Went to Doctor, walk in clinic Saturday. DH and I have a virus nothing to do for it. But the kids with their asthma and allergies he gave them some kind of steriod to help boost the puffers they take. So no relief at my house.




I dosed off and on all weekend. Just could not stay awake. Tried to watch LOST and slept through most of it three different times. Watched the Bud Shootout and watched Tony do a bump and pass. Loved it, he won the shootout. WOOHOO. and the little tree took it with flare for once.




Watched qualifying, or some bits of it. Loved that there is a rookie on poll, with the seasoned veteran right beside him. What was up with Mikey's manifold? In the end what happened?




OB_GYN office called Friday, they now want to book an ultrasound. Made me want to puke.


Weekend came and went, and it went fast, where did it go.




Friday at home doorbell rang, figured it was Alexis friend, she answers and says it is for you Mom. I go and there is a flower delivery person. I almost fainted. I got flowers from England. OMG it made me cry so much. The kids were why are you crying mom? I am so blessed to know people like this. Thank you so much Georgina. It made my whole weekend. I love fresh flowers, I really do.




I was too sick to scrap on the weekend, so I did not do an entry for the Scrapbookchalet immunity challenge for survivor. Gotta hope my original entry garners a vote, and gets me to the next round.




A friend sent me these pictures, I thought of my friend Ruthann who recently lost her precious bunny.

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...

Thoughtful Thursday

Alberta headlines an announcement that there are 3,500 new positions for childcare in Alberta in 51 different communities. So I read the report. Which can be found here....http://www.child.alberta.ca/home/587.cfm . It comes down to 3,489 positions at the cost of $4,853,940.00 that comes out to $1,391.21 per position. Makes me wonder. Red Deer my community gets 68 positions at two differernt centres and $102,000, which works out to 1,500.00 per position. I just do not get it. I am pulled aside at daycare yesterday where my 4 year old DS attends full time. The owner of the centre tells me that C has left, that the other C is being moved to a new room, and that a brand new C, and J are going to start, and lead will be held by N who has been there two weeks. The daycare owner tells me she doesn't know why but she cannot keep staff in that room. I pay $775.00 a month for him to attend daycare, I pay $255.00 a month for my daughter to attend after school care from 3-6 on school days. ...

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.
