Weekend...

Had a going away party on Friday.. Fabulous... Bruce steak night... headed out to Hard & dusty to have some shits and giggles with the high school friends... now... now... nothing like dancing like a rock star amongst Friends filling up with booze and food!!!

My mission this week is to....

1. get a camera.. so you can actually see pictures of the family...
2. get my bathroom painted (now that I have caught the painting bug...)
3. have a fab.. time with sis and bro... coming in from Vancouver//Seattle...

Where are the mashed potatoes....

Busy... home from work and I can not find the instant mashed potatoes.... for the record.. if you have not tried them.. you better not knock them!!!!!

and for all those who volunteered on the weekend.... I remember them being exactly where I found them!!! in the laundry room... under the brown pants.. covered by the white shirt!!!

Painting weekend....

What a weekend... the best ever...You know you had a good painting weekend when you have more wine on your shirt than paint....

Worked like a dog... got the whole house painted by Saturday 12midnight.... then proceeded to get a little tipsy.... the girls.. laughed uncontrollably at my clutter mess!!!! as they tossed a few items..that Willy... filtered through in the morning!! and he calls me the pack rat!!! They.. could not believe the stuff I had...I think they had more fun than me!!!!

Wish I had pictures to show you... but oh no... the camera has not been replaced!!!

Busy Painting!!!

I caught the painting bug... it started with friends helping me spray the deck (100 spindles)... thank you.......... thank you.......... thank you............ now... I have proceeded to paint the pillars.... and the back door...

This weekend we are having a painting party (Dad.. does not know any of this... hopefully he's combining and not around.. he always complains about the crazy colors I pick.. than after a couple of days he likes it) but.... if your around... bring a brush.. I will provide the wine.. beer... and food... we are painting the living room, hallways, and kitchen!!!! it should be fun.... if not eventful.....

P.S. no... booze... until after the 1st coat!!! just kidding

So far so good..

3.5hours into the party.... only one girl has cried and only one door got broke!!! going pretty good I must admit!!! Got supper ready!! and presents opened!!!... now for the movie!!!! ... then home time!!

I wont' be updating for a couple days!!! I'll be resting

Getting ready for 12 girls!!!

OK... better late than ever... I am up this morning getting ready for J's bday party (her bday was in June)... and yes.. 12 girls for 6 hours (1:00pm-6:00pm).. and your right..." I have lost my mind.... I gave J many options... going to Edmonton with a couple of friends... no... going to Veg to swim with a few more... no....going to the movies... no.... so... I guess I'm stuck with them all HERE!!! I aint' going to clean.. cause I can just imagine... what it will look like after.... luckily it's going to be a nice day.. and maybe they can go to the park!!!

Getting into trouble!!!

I know it's been a bit since I updated my blog.....and that is because!!!! I am addicted to reading... yes me!!! I read "Twilight" w/in a week (J was impressed) and I'm half done "New Moon", and if it wasn't for my personal lender being gone on holidays!! I would have called in sick to finish the book!!! J told me today that she finished the first 3 books w/in 3 days!!! (cougarmama.. have you read this series??... if not GET out and BUY it..cause there won't be any copies left at your library)

LoLo thinks her husband is a book widow!! how do you think J's husband feels?

Since the kids have been back to school... I have had registration night... I started training for a half marathon.. and reading!!!

Now I promise to be better at updating.. and hopefully picutures will follow!! (gotta buy a camera first)

1st hockey meeting tonight!! should proove to be intersting!!! and I am NOT signing up for any JOBS!!!! (will keep you posted)

Having J's B-day party on Saturday (not bad eh!! only 3 months late!!!) but they say better late than ever..but who would procratinate with the anticiaption of 11 sreaming girls at the house for 6 hours!!!

Computerized the books for the dance club and am quite excited... (feeling proud of myself) so if anyone needs an excell spreadsheet for your club... pls let me know...

Hope all is well !!!
