Moving bites!

Last night I called Chunks. My poor little buddy is feeling the stress. Moving bites. Especially moving from one city to another, or worse yet, another province. One or two of those, and you quickly find your resolve to stay the fuck put! I already miss hearing from her and she hasn't even gotten into the full blown moving thing yet! I remember the pain from my last move and it aint pretty. She and I tend to be a fair bit alike so I relate. We love you Chunks! Vent vent, we can all use the humor in our lives!!

It snowed here AGAIN last night. Every couple of nights or so, it snows enough to cover the ground and chill us down, and then the sun comes out after lunch and melts it all and we're outside in tshirts after school. Then the friggin sun goes down and it snows again! ARGHHH! Where is the spring time I so am longing for? I am dreaming of my first garden ever this year, and I need to move beyond winter NOW! I love the changing seasons, don't get me wrong, but I feel like a petulant child this year with the weather humming and hawing all over the place.

My mother in law is visiting this week. She is a teacher and it is spring break for BC schools so she came to see us. She is always very helpful so it's like a little holiday for me. I enjoy that greatly. Laundry done, meals cooked, kitchen cleaned, and I get to work on other projects and spend more time with the kids, so it is really a nice break. We are very different people and it has taken me almost 13 years to get used to her detached and cool persona, so I still steel myself for her visits and am then pleasantly surprised at how thick my once delicate skin has become!!

So that is all for me today. I want to say a Happy Belated Birthday to the lovely JT!
Have a great day all!

Hello world!

Well, well well.....If it isn't me, the malleable one. Chunks pestered me a while and I decided my reasons for not blogging were likely ready to be challenged. To one extent or the other. Now I just have to think of something interesting to say....

The sun was shining here in Alberta today, and I would think that is cause for celebration! It keeps teasing us by showing up and melting all the snow, only to be followed by MORE SNOW! Any day now people, any day now. I just reminded myself of some lameass high school teacher when I said that. Of course, you have to say it in a really nasal monotone for it to be truly effective.

I have the song "If I Were a Carpenter" by Johnny Cash in my head lately. WHY??????? I mean, it's a great song, and I loves me some Johnny, but it's been fucking days now, I need some relief. I think it's time to buy some new tunes. Dickey introduced us to Stereophonics recently and I loved their sound, but have yet to pick up a CD.

Music, interesting word really. Never really thought about the word itself until just now.

Anyhooooooooooooooooooo...that's all. for now.
