To redo the front gardens my Mum and I chose today! It was a stinking hot 34 degrees! But the front of my house looks lovely and a few of the neighbors who were walking by over the course of the afternoon we were out there agreed! We even took down the awning that I [...]

Abi and I were up at my parents farm this weekend for a visit and to finally go to the VARACshow today at Mosport with my Mum and Dad. Oh my Gods! I remembered how much I used to love cars when I was younger and how I had at one point wanted to be [...]

This morning I registered with Weight Watchers. Basically I have had next to no success with losing the baby weight on my own and have decided to give this a go after discussing things with my Dr. and after talking to a friend who had had great success with this plan. I have signed up [...]

I am participating in the Knitty Secret Pal 4 exchange. This morning I recieved my first package from my SP! She is in Sweden(did I mention my love of traditional handicrafts (the Dala horse), viking anything and Naalbinding in my questionaire ) and is one great gift giver! That is the Elsebeth Lavold Viking knits [...]

I have been home from school for the past four days with a sick baby…Tomorrow we HAVE to go back to class. You can only miss 75% of classes without penalty. Dealing with a sick baby is not fun, Abi was (understandably) clingy which made trying to do house work next to impossible and she [...]
