Anyone with kids, or anyone who knows anyone with kids.. needs to see this. It is very disturbing. Especially in the wake of so many recent fire deaths..
and for anyone else too... I think most of us can relate to this.. and how we feel leaving work on Friday and coming back in on Monday (or any other days for that matter)
Wow...I really slept in this morning. Not surprising though, given the whirlwind we've been on the last week or so. Yesterday was pretty much the last of it though. We finally opened presents and had a huge dinner with all the kids and a few friends. Mallory brought her boyfriend. I really like this young man. I wasn't sure I would at first, but he has treated Mallory with tremendous respect, he has a very kind heart, a good job, he's got a good head on his shoulders too... and yesterday I got a hug from him, a real hug not one of those forced fake ones.
Our friend Rob came to celebrate with us too. He's more like a member of the family than a friend. He's good people and finally has himself a really nice girlfriend. She couldn't come because she had to work though. And Kari, my "adopted" daughter, flew in from Halifax last week and has been practically living here since. Her own family lives a couple of miles down the road from us, but they have the flu or some other wretched bug. She doesn't want to catch it, so she's here instead. She has always been welcome here, always will be.
And Logan came too. I love this kid, but maaaaaan, he can make me crazy. He and Reilly butt heads constantly. They just couldn't stop themselves and before I knew it... they were almost at blows. I don't know what to do with them short of keeping them separated.
Anyway, we opened all kinds of gifts, ate a HUGE and incredible meal, then settled down to have a few drinks and laugh and watch the 3rd installment of Pirates of the Caribbean together. It was a wonderful night.
Today I take Logan home, Reilly heads to Oshawa for a few days and things here will quiet down and maybe we can actually get some work done on the basement.
Have a Very Happy New Year Everyone! May you all be blessed with love, laughter, health and peace!
and all through the house, a toddler was whining, refusing to sleep.
Argh.. Poor Rhiannon, she is so wound up, after two days of hanging out with her cousins, eating Grandmere's amazing food, and hearing over and over again about Santa's impending arrival, that she can't stop crying. She's exhausted. Marc is trying to charm her into bed, with some nice warm Ovaltine and promises of a movie if she will just lay down and rest for a bit.
We've had busy/hectic couple of days since we got here. Running last minute errands, visiting with Marcs family, cooking..eating... cooking..more eating.. OMGS!! I swear, I am going to explode but the food is SOOOOOOOOOOO good. Tomorrow I am going walking, just to burn off some of this stuff before we sit down to dinner.
Boxing Day? Well, we might hit one store, but after that, off to the arena for a couple of hours of skating. That should burn off a few calories too. I hope...
Well, I wish each and every one of you a Happy Santa Day, Merry Christmas..whatever the heck you call it.. Enjoy time spent with friends, family, or even in peaceful solitude.. Just enjoy. And safe home to those of you on the road!
are looking for their forever homes. The two white ones are girls, both very affectionate, playful and accustomed to being mauled by small children. The two brown ones are boys, again, very affectionate, a little more subdued than the two girls but I suspect that would change in the right home. The girls tend to push the boys around alot.
These little ones are ready for new homes now, but I do realize that this is not necessarily the best time of year to introduce a new pup into a household so I would be willing to hang on to them until after the holidays if you think you would like one.
The are healthy, eat well, (Iams Smart Puppy food) and are extremely well socialized. They are also sort of papertrained. They see paper on the floor and they pee on it, whether you want them to or not..*L*
Hmph... while my friends are having profound thoughts, introspective investigations, deep, spiritual..or not, musings... I am not.. not one, not a bit. Hell, I can barely stay awake long enough to string together a sentence when I get home.
All I know is I'm extremely emotional right now, I'm angry - angry at Marc, angry at the kids, even at the dog. Furious with The Powers That Be at work.. in general, I've gone from a relatively normal, happy person to someone who is not to be crossed.
I went to bed as soon as dinner was over last night - cried myself to sleep. I don't even frigging know why. I don't feel any better this morning either. I want to throw things, rip someone a new one, break something over someones head. What set it off?
I take Rhiannon to daycare in the morninngs, fight like hell every day to get her there, plus organize 3 lunches for 3 different tastes, make sure Rhiannon has whatever her "favorite" toy of the day is, make sure she gets breakfast, gets dressed..yadda yadda yadda... mornings are a nightmare.. I am often late for work. Yesterday I was 1/2 hour late..no biggie because as long as I put in my 8 hours, no one cares.
Marc? He gets up at 5am, pours the coffee I made the night before into his travel mug, packs his lunch and leaves... his big job? PIck Rhiannon up from daycare on Monday by 5:10 so she can get to dance class for 5:30. Yesterday? He called me at 5pm to say he wasn't going to make it so I'd better get moving.. so I flew out of work, not having put in my 8 hours (which usually ends up closer to 9)... only to pull into the sitters driveway at the same time as him. Was I mad? You bet... went home, made a shitty dinner (didn't have what I needed because someone used up a bunch of the stuff I had planned to use for dinner).. and went to bed..
Ugh.. today is not starting out any better. I need to find a way to shake this off.
Well, I've been up since 2am. Meika, our 3 yr old husky, started pacing the hall, whining and generally making a nuisance of herself. I was going to let her out, but remembered the last 3 times she'd been out, she'd made a beeline for a hidey hole under the deck. In the wet, cold sand. And besides, I could hear the coyotes howling and wasn't about to risk that either. One of my not so close neighbours lost her border collie to the coyotes 2 nights back. Apparently they just hid in the shadows, waiting for the poor thing come out for it's last pee of the night and then pounced on it. So..no.. I refused to let her out.
I tried sitting with her, to calm her down. Nope.. she kept pacing. I did everything I could, she's got a bed, with a canopy so it's like a den, quiet music.. the whole shebang. But she just kept pacing. Finally about 4:30 she fell asleep. Unfortunately Marc's alarm went off at 5am, so no rest for the wicked here.
As I was getting the kids ready for school, Meika became more and more agitated. Shaking and whining... so I locked her out of the bedrooms, except for rhiannons, where her bed/den is, left her some water and went to work. I came home at lunch time, to find her stuck.. under the boys bedroom door. Somehow she managed to open it and go in..but also managed to shut it behind her... aaaaarrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhh!!! So she dug her way out of the room..well, partway anyhow.. her belly is pretty big and she got stuck.
Good thing I came home I guess. Anyway..she was still very agitated and stressed, so I took her out for a short, but calming walk and now she's asleep in her bed/den. Still no sign of puppies. I may just go back to work after all. The vet says this could go on for another 12 hours or so... argh. Another sleepless night? Noooooooooo... please say it isn't so.
Well, no point in worrying about it. Like babies, the pups will come when they are good and ready. I just hope it's not too long.
Argh.. I liked my yahoo. I liked it..really. I will have to wait and see if I like this. But I am not taking my 360 down yet.. It's not really closing, it's morphing into something new apparently. All files are supposed to be easily moved to the new one. We shall see..
In the meantime, I will play with this and see what happens. But not right now. I have kids to wake up (they should have been up 15 minutes ago) and breakfasts to make and lunches to make and dammit.. I still need to get dressed for work.. argh.. I hate mornings..
