why is it that when you are doing something that you don't want people to see you doing that you inevitably run into someone you know.
it is only more humourous that I went out of my way to go 30mins away from where i live and work, and still ran into someone.
how is that possible?

it is earily quiet in here today
as one full grown adult is in full temper tantrum mode
and not speaking to the rest of us.
we howver cannot stop giggling as we know that it is us that is being ignored.

k

i have sold my soul for a plethora of cotton t shirts, sweaters, and a beautiful warm up suit.

i have been forbidden to mention where i am going this weekend.
but i am very excited.
have been doing some research, and have my heart set on going to the coyote ugly bar. i think that will be ridiculous fun.

had a great day yesterday, flooded with phone calls and best wishes.
i am so fortunate to have such loving people around me.

we went for dinner with gma and gpa last night.
always nice to see and spend time with them.

and then bry was waiting for me at home with my favorite lillies, and my favorite magazine GRAZIA!!!

he is such a keeper.

k

so i am not at all concerned about getting older.
i am not one of those people who lie about their age....
at least I wasn't until today.
i have proudly been telling everyone that i am 34 today.
and it was only through reading my sisters blog that i found out today that i am only 33.
it makes me laugh that i am so clueless about how old i am.
is it that i am so old that i have started to forget
or am i that clueless as to what on earth is going on.

we are heading to las vegas on sunday for my bi annual road trip with the ladies.
pretty excited that i will be in weather tha is +27 instead of -27 that it is right now.

So here i sit on the first of March 2007.
My birthday month.
As I am old enough now to command an entire month.
It is a busy month for me.
First Bry celebrates his bday on the second.
Then we celebrate our 1 year on the 5th.
Next is my bday on the 8th.
And then we are off for the march break.
From the 9th to the 19th.
A potential visit to see Andrea in Buffalo (although I am not sure of the date)
A visit to Fenlin Falls.
Somewhere in there we have some low maintenance to do on Brys house as we hope to put it up on the market, with my house soon to follow. The market is too tempting to turn down at this point, and the idea of being dept free is so tempting.

No rest for the wicked.
I guess that means me

i am most excited to report that my newest arrival has arrived.
you would think that i was talking about a baby.... oh no.
i am talking about my fantastic h and m jacket.
you might remember if you are a fashionista like i try to be...
it was the jacket that ripped off the shelf in novemeber.
my sister got her hands on one and lovingly let jojo have it.
i was on a mission...
and thanks to ebay. and the postal system (insert 8 week delivery from scotland)
i know own the infamous jacket.
although it took a small eternity, i am happy to have waited as it is beautiful, and timeless, and i love it and it is mine.

funny, we went to the shops tonight and i bought the boy the si swim suit edition, and i got a loulou magazine for myself. the intro to the mag mentioned the excitement that this h and m collection generated. funny as the fury was in november, the mag dated feb, and me just recieving my purchase this week.

it was meant to be!!!!

on a side bar i also recieved my new green recyling box. it is for oraganic waste. know i can almost recycle anything. it is truly amazing!!!

So, here we are.
Another new year.
And one, that I am excited to begin.

I heard yesterday someone said that their new years resolution was...

dont hate... appreciate.

I love it.

And have adopted it for my own.

Thinking about how fortunate I have been to have the love of my family and friends over the last year... I can only be excited to see what this new year brings into my life.

k

This marks the first weekend that I have spent in my home in a very long time.
And to celebrate, why yes I have been cleaning all weekend.
Well, I did spend time with the girls, who I have not seen in a long time. Had dinner and drinks with them.

Also ran into Lauries brother, who I last saw when he was 12. She is married to Derick and expecting her first child anyday now. Strange.... but she has gotten everything that she has wanted, and I could not be happier for her.

The boy was thrilled to get tickets to the Notre Game Football this weekend. He,his father and brother went to the game this weekend.
Leaving me to stay at home, while he gets to play.
However, not complaining however. Last weekend I was away in London with my sisters and her friends in London. Another whirlwind trip. Although I have lost my shopping mojo. It has expired. Sadly... I am sure visa will be sad as well.

Might have the chance to renew my powers though as Char, Angela, and I are goint to Pensyvania next weekend on a shopping tour. Should be interesting.

I am most happy to announce my return to the world of ..... EVERYTHING.

Since I am no longer working for the airline for the winter. I have not been fired (yet).

So I am allowed to have a life again.

I am also, even more excited to share my new favorite toy.

I purchsed an ipod nano, as my computer was having isssues and I thought that I might have to wipe it clean... and soon after found this little gadget.

It rocks. I have manged to log 53 kms last month, and am planning to hit 60 this month. It is just so exciting as I am not a runner, but am trying to make myself into one.

The gang.

Mum and the boy. It was Canadian Hamburger night. Rounded out with Octodogs.





















Maman and seestor. One of my favorite shots. 

Two sisters :)












Lunch on the beach. The most beautiful place. My new happy place.


The lovely waterfalls in the North of Spain. Breathtaking
The posh hotel that we stayed in. I believe it was Sort. Fantastic place. 

Alfredo and Sarah on the night of our arrival.



Cocktails on the beach after a long day of travel


Outside of the Barcelona football stadium


A case of cava for 30 euros... who could ask for anything more. 

So hear I sit. Waiting patiently for my schedule to be released from the airline.
And I find myself in a place that I did not think I would be.
You see, I think that this might be the end of my flight attendant days.
I have my heart set on travelling in Spain next month, and am convinced that my schedule will not permit it.
And with all things that you are eager to see, they take so freakin long to be realized.

3:30pm and they arent out yet.
They are 30 minutes late.

Its like they know I am waiting impatiently, and are laughing at me.

Hurry Up all ready.

Another picture of the baby!!
Just too cute!! 

The newest member of my family.
Simon and Chrsitine have welcomed Owen Reginald Good.
