I cant believe I forgot to write this!

My Justin is 21~~ he turned 21 yesterday. I remember my Mom saying that once they are in Junior high the time seems to speed up. She was right. I truly can not believe he is 21. When I had him I never imagined him so grown up. I look at the other kids, and think the same thing, they will not be 21 so soon will they? I guess we all need to treasure our kids and keep them close , because they will not need us forever. Yesterday was the first birthday I have missed, seems very weird not to have had a cake with him. Instead someone else made him a cake, a friend. Changes we all go through them, so I suppose we have to accept them....... Happy Birthday J!!!!! Ilove you!

WHATS WITH THIS SNOW????

Seriously... We have a foot or more.é Its -20 and I am grumpy. Last weekend I am looking for patio furniture and sitting outside having a beer... This week we are shovelling and noone wants to drive anywhere because the roads are so bad. Spring in Alberta is so unpredictable I hate it... There the rant is out.... I am going to make some hot chocolate to warm up... Geesh,.,,,,,

Where does the time go?

Wow.. Its been a week since I have written anything. I am trying to think what I have done in that week.. nothing is coming to mind.. that is not a good thing. The days just slip by sometimes..I know I must have accomplished a thing or two.. Oh I did get a new partime job. I will helping out a firend with her new business. I am working Thursdays, in her retail shop. I am looking forward to that just getting out and being productive. The jewelry business has slowed down , I think because summer is approaching. I am not the type to call people to book parties either, so I guess I out of luck for now. Its been great weather for hot tubbing, so I guess that is what I have been doing this past week, Tough life hey? Today, as soon as I am done here, I will clean and stamp a few cards. I have put that off way too long. Later.....

Great Morning!

Its just one of those days.. I stayed home did some things around the house...but stayed in my robe and didnt over do anything. I worked on the PC and had a nice quiet breakfast. The sun is peaking through and the it"s warming up..spring is great... the tulips at my mom's house are already coming up... I have been thinking alot about how as you get older and the things that really matter and how "not sweating the small stuff" is a great moto to live by. It seems that I am ever so conent with my life right now , it is such a great feeling.... BUT i cant help but think whats the thing that will come out of the blue...and test it all. I know we can not dwell on that or we would drive ourselves mad.... but I cant help it..its in the back of my mind. So I will just try to rid those thoughts and focus on the good. On a different note... I am 39 now and Mike will be 40. He has never been a triathlon and registered for his first one. He will be a part of a team. He cant really swim so a friend, Whitney, will do that and he will run and bike. I will do it with him but I will do all three. Its not my first one it will be my third. I am excited he is doing this!!!

Here we are in the happiest, and most expensive place on Earth... LOL

Great Times!

We are home safe and sound.. Loved the vacation to Az and Disneyland, but I love home even more. There is nothing like the comforts of home. The kids hada super time .. the twins loved their baseball camp, in AZ. They want to go back next year. Evan loved seeing Grandma and Grandpa,. and really loved exploring the desert with me. He was very surprised when we drove up to disneyland. He kept asking " is this the real Disneyland?"... It was a trip I will never forget, because I saw a tenderness, from the twins, that I have been waiting to see. They were taking the bog brother role pretty seriously. Never letting Evan out of their site and always holding his hands.. They played with him and really enjoyed being around him. As for me, they wanted to be near me all the time,holding my hands too and cuddling me. It wasa great feeling , since they dont do that often, its something I will treasure.... I took pictures and will post some soon......
