Almost Thanksgiving!! WOOHOO! It's my most favourite holiday weekend of the year. I love the weather, the food, the extra day off work. It's sweet. BUT. Post Thanksgiving. It starts. The lead up to my TWO most UNfavourite holidays of the year. Hallowe'en and … [Read more...]
Is more always better???
Did you ever use to watch the Brady Bunch and think it was awesome? Or did the idea of having five other siblings scare the crap out of you? I have three siblings (and two step-brothers)...wow so I guess I am living the Brady life, without Alice and Tiger. Step-bros aside for now (although I … [Read more...]
This Song Reminds Me of Thursdays…..FREE FALLING
I realize that I rarely write about my dad. Frankly, you could think I was an orphan if you didn't know me! So let me state for the record - I have an awesome dad. Growing up I always thought I was SO much like my mother but no, while I do have some of her traits, I am fully and … [Read more...]
Thanksgiving Comes Early
I've been thinking about my last few weeks of posts, and they seem to all be in a bit of sad, reflective, moaning (and not in a good way) kind of tone. I'm a 'funk' girl. I regularly go through periods where I feel a combo of any if not all of these... a. ugly b. unloved c. lost at … [Read more...]
This Song Reminds Me of Thursdays…..YOU ARE THE BEST THING
I have a very strong pull to the singer songwriter types. Yes, those who know me will claim it's because they look like jesus and appear to not have not eaten or bathed in the last few months. I rarely date that type of guy but I can conjure elaborate fantasies of us travelling on a bus … [Read more...]
FAQs For You Mommy Types…Help a mutha out….
I think I've told you before how I refused to read any baby books or parenting books when I was pregnant. I told my doctor that I wasn't and he said if I refused to listen to my friends as well that I'd be his favorite patient of all time. I really think a better strategy is going on … [Read more...]
#HealthcareFail
I spent an awesome Saturday night having a sleepover with my girlfriends. It was like being 15 again but we didn't talk about boys (lie) or eat too much crap (lie). Will spent the night with my dad and step-mom. That was a first for them and Will was a rockstar. Not only … [Read more...]
This Song Reminds Me of Thursdays…..RED RAIN
Ah young love. Remember your first love? I don't necessarily mean your first full out serious romance (although I guess for many they are one in the same) but I mean that first, sweet...'oh my god is he going to hold my hand', type of deal. For me it was summer of Grade 11 (or maybe … [Read more...]
The sights, smells and sounds of …your mother??
This week over in the Nighttime Lounge, Chantal wrote about being tucked in by her mom....like recently...at 35...and how great a sleep she had after. Ever since I read it I've been thinking even more about my mom than usual. I think it's this time of year. This November will be … [Read more...]
Different But Not Less
I watched Temple Grandin last week. If you haven't heard of it, it's the HBO movie that pretty much swept the Emmy's last week. It tells the life story of Temple Grandin, a high functioning autistic who has essentially designed a humane way for slaughterhouses to work (as humane as they … [Read more...]
