nap times rock the socks

  • Aug. 12th, 2008 at 11:00 AM

Hi!!!

Paul is down for his morning nap, so I have been able to get some things done, which is always nice. I am going to be sad when the day comes that he no longer needs to nap!

I am still at my mom's. BUT I have Paul which is nice. Chris wanted an extra night to spend with Jonathan, so I thought that was really nice, but I wanted Paul. We did the exchange last night and Paul has been here ever since. He had trouble sleeping last night A: because he was excited to see the dogs, and B: He was afraid that I wasn't going to be there when he got up. lol He did sleep all night though, once he got to sleep.

This morning, Lisa, Paul and I went to Timmy's for a coffee, then hung out around here till Lisa had to work. I've been busy packing and things to go home. I am leaving after Paul's lunch. Which probably will be soonish. I'm not ready to go home...but yet I am at the same time, for Paul's sake. He hasn't been home since Sat morning, so it's been a long time, and with him switching back and forth between all the grandparents and things, has been difficult.

AT least Chris is off this week, and we will have all evening tonight to hang out and all day tomorrow to do stuff, just the three of us.

OH>>>on another note, Lisa and I were chatting about how having another child will impact on my life...and I have to say, I am once again SCARED. Not so sure if I can do it....without it hurting my relationship with my babes, Mr. Paul. Time management...that's going to be HUGE this time around when it happens that I have another one of course! lol

Anyways, I have to run....laundry should be done...and then I am back to Packing! Then lunch...mmmmmmm

Happy Anniversery

  • Jul. 21st, 2008 at 11:55 AM

Hi!

Happy Anniversery to ME! lol

Yes, today is Chris and my anniversery of being together in a relationship. It's been 11 years. that's a pretty long time by todays standards. I'm thrilled to even write it...11. ELEVEN. yep. Long time. And I love it :) Plus, 11 IS my favourite number, which rocks the socks.

So, how to celebrate....yeah...we won't be celebrating today. We are hoping to get our sitter for tomorrow to come over so we can go out...but who knows? I'm waiting for her to call back. Tomorrow Chris gets paid so that is why we are waiting till then.

I'm still thrilled, regardless. It's a big deal. Who knew that day when my sister stepped in and basically forced Chris to ask me to "go out" with him. lol. (she loved Chris, but he is one who takes his sweet ass time on everything, so she was giving up on him and wanted me to then go out with Paul (chris' friend) She told Paul he should ask me out then, and Chris told him to back off that I was "his" and Lisa just spoke up and said that I'm not with anyone and I can go out with whomever I want too and Chris just took me in his arms and asked me out right then and there). Lisa credits our entire relationship on her "setting us up" lol She was 10 almost 11 at the time. It must've worked b/c we are still together all those years later. Don't know if I ever actually thanked Lisa for doing that...so Lisa, if you are reading this,
"THANKS. You did a great job! I love you."

Hi!

Well, I am enjoying my days off :) They have been great. I'm sad that tomorrow is my last day off though, but it's alright. Sunday was Father's day. Paul and I went shopping and got Chris from Paul the book, "Chicken Soup for the Father and Son's soul". I really thought that was appropriate. I got Chris two of his forgotten realm series books. He was happy. I saw there they had a book called "Chicken soup for the new mom's soul". I really wanted it, but couldn't afford it...and I'm not really a new mom anymore I guess, but that would have been a great book to have when I was, lol

For Father's day, Chris, Paul and I went out with our neighbours, Katherine, Jamie and James for the afternoon. We went to the beach and the park. It was a nice way to spend the afternoon, spending time with our kiddos. lol Then in the evening, I took Chris out for dinner and a movie. We went to this diner, that really ended up sucking ass. I was very disappointed with their service and their food. It was really bad. I wouldn't recommend anyone go :( Then, being it was Chris' choice for movie, we saw, "Indiana Jones and the somthing or another" that's in the theaters. Chris was SOOO excited. We've been to the movies once since paul was born, and that was last summer. It was really nice to be out. We saw the early movie, and when we were done, it had started to thunder and lightening out, so we decided to go down by the water and watch the lightening for awhile since we were paying the sitter till 10 anyways.

Chris had such a good time. He commented that he really wants us to make more of an effort to go out either just the two of us, or with another couple once a month for an evening. We haven't really done that a whole lot, with the other couple ppl. So, I think next month, I've asked Cheryl if she and Brandon want to go out for dinner and bowling next month on a Saturday. So, we'll see :)

Yesterday, I had my reading with my friend, S. It was fun to get out for a few hours during the day. She did my reading and it wasn't a very good reading. meaning, I did'nt like what she said :P Basically, she said that I felt really tied up, that something from my childhood past that I haven't dealt with was coming back again and I had to fix it before I could move on. She said that I'm going thru a tough time right now and will continue to go thru shit for another 6 months or so. She said I will feel like my world is falling down around me, but that it's something that needs to happen.

I'm not putting a whole lot into what she said. I hope she's wrong. We'll see. In the mean time, I will keep trudgeing along. haha. I did have a good time though. :)

Today, I am going for coffee with Cheryl this afternoon for awhile. Then maybe Paul and I will go and visit my ppl...but I'm not sure yet. That all depends when I am done with coffee. Cheryl and I are meeting at 2pm.

Tomorrow, will just be a day for me to hang out at home, do laundry and just chill. This weekend, Chris and Paul will be going to Elora for the family Golf tournament that is held every year. Chris is looking forward to it. (I'm looking forward to the time alone haha). I think he and Paul will be staying at my mom's for the nights, and Chris and Paul will be going back to Elora for the day on Sat. Sun, though Chris wants to see my aunt and get her gardening stuff done that she wants done. He's *hoping* that my mom or sister wouldn't mind watching paul for a few hours Sun morning so Chris can get that stuff done, but I haven't asked them yet b/c Chris didn't mention that to me till this morning. lol We'll see. I am going to pick Chris and Paul up Sun night after I get off work. I am hoping to take afew hours stat time on Sun so I can drive up there in not heavy traffic, as I technically have to work till 5pm.

Lisa wrote her LSATS yesterday. eep! Mom called me to tell me that she had finished writing, sounded exhausted and didn't think she did well. So we'll see. If she didn't do well, she can rewrite in Oct, no biggy :) I'm sure she rocked the LSAT socks though :P I'm waiting for her (Lisa) to call me later to tell me about it. Hopefully she does...*shakes fist* haha. She amuses me. lol

Anyways, I should probably find something else productive to do.

starlight the cat

  • Jun. 9th, 2008 at 9:13 AM

Hi. Starlight is sitting beside me watching me type and also, at the very same time, watching the door on the incase Jonathan should happen to walk down the stairs...haha. Last night, I had a dream that Starlight and Heaven were around and that Heaven became this evil sinister cat and starlight was moronic but still alright for the most part. It was a little scary at times, and there was even a brief interlude that made me think it was actually real. *shivers*

It's hot today, but so far, not as bad as it has been...we will see how the day progresses. Also, we never did have any tornados. lol

Today, I think the plan is that around 10:15am or so, I will wake Paul up and get him ready. Jonathan, Paul, Cheryl and I are going out for breakfast then we are off to canadian tire to check out air conditioners. I will drop Cheryl off at work at some point, and then I really have no plans. Chris wants to change our entire bedroom around when he gets home. I don't care what he does, so long as he does it when Paul is awake.

Speaking of the babes, he's good. He's napping at the present time. He enjoyed taking daddy to work this morning. He went to bed early for his nap so that he gets a decent one in before we go out. I try to do that as much as possible for the little guy. It's hard to do breakfast, when it's almost lunch before he gets up though...but ya gotta do, what cha gotta do!

Lisa, my sis, writes her LSATS test next week. I forget the actual day? I think it's like the 17th or something...I'm so nervous for her! I'm sure she will do fine, but I'm still nervous for her nonetheless. However, I do think that Jeffy is taking his life in his hands by going with her to Suds to be there when she gets done writing her test. lol

Anyways, that's my news for now. Leave a note.

Paul is HOME

  • May. 4th, 2008 at 10:21 AM

Hi!

My baby is home again!!! I missed him SOOO much! I couldn't believe how much more grown up he looks compared to Wed when I dropped him off at my moms! He is just so cute!

Paul had a great time at Grandma's for vacation. He can't wait to come back and visit KC and Comet. I think he actually misses those dogs. However, Paul has adjusted well to being home again. Even if he got up before 6am for the day today. haha.

Mom and Lisa dropped Paul off around 2:30-ish. They stayed and visited till about 6pm. That was so nice. I really enjoyed their visit. I always do, but it was just so fun. I got to show Lisa our new place and she really loved it. She even gave Paul his nap time bottle for me. How adorable was that!

Chris made us a really nice breakfast and he is now out cutting grass for his clients. I am *hoping* he will be home by lunch. Paul is napping. This afternoon, weather premitting, we are going to go for a walk to the grocery store to get a few things. I want to get a big roast and potatos for supper in the slow cooker for tomorrow night, so that should be enough for Chris' lunch for the week, and a little something for dinner tonight.

Chris has to be at work for 5am tomorrow morning. That means he has to get up for 4am for the DAY! *uurgh* He thinks he will still be at work till between 9 and 10pm that night, and work close to the same hours on Tuesday as well. Hopefully he won't have to start till 7am though *crosses fingers, but not holding my breath*.

I won't have the vehicle Mon or Tues for sure, so I am not sure what our plans are going to be for those two days. Having the vehicle at least once during my days off when chris works really helps out. I normally like to have it on either mon or tues...oh well, I am sure we will come up with something :P

Anyways, I guess I should run for now. Leave a note.

Baby Free

  • May. 1st, 2008 at 9:15 AM

Hi!

The house is so quiet...it's weird. haha. So, Paul is at Grandma's house with Aunt Lisa. He's having a great time. Yesterday, was such a busy day. Paul and I got the oil changed before heading out. Then we stopped at Chris' mom's so Paul could spend about an hour and a half there, while I went to set up everything at my mom's house. Lisa and I then went to Timmy's to get some lunch on the way back to get Paul.

I was SOOOOOO proud of him for how well he adapted to being at my mom's house with Lisa, whom he hasn't really seen since xmas. He never cried once and he was so excited to see the puppy dogs (Comet and KC). We took him for a stroller ride to the grocery store to get him milk and yogurt. Then Lisa and Paul played for a bit before his bottle and his nap. Then when he got up, he ate all of his dinner and then played on the floor and laughed his ass off at the puppy's. IT was so funny. I didn't want to leave b/c he was having such a great time! But I had to get back.

Apparently, Paul played forever before he realized that I wasn't even there anymore. Even then he didn't cry, but he's now Lisa's suck. It was funny to hear. I guess Paul slept all night till mom's alarm went off at 7am.

I'm so glad they are having a good time. :)

As for me, I got back home here before 9pm. Chris and I decided to go for a walk which we did. Then when we slept we got to sleep all night. It was awsome. I took Chris to work this morning and it was so weird not getting Paul ready to go out etc. Then I decided to call Cheryl and see if she wants to go out for breakfast, baby free. So I am meeting her a little bit later. I should be home around 1:30, and that will give me about 2 hours before I have to go to work. Then tomorrow will be my 'chill' day where I don't go anywhere, I just hang out at home.

I'm having a great time...but I have to say, that when you do the same things pretty much every day, like Paul's routines etc, and then you don't have to do it for a few days, it is really weird...I almost feel lost a bit, but I am having a great time b/c I know Paul is in very good hands and I trust my sister and mom. It's a very nice break and I am so appreciative. :)

Tuesdays

  • Apr. 29th, 2008 at 10:32 AM

Hi!

I took Paul to the drs yesterday afternoon. It was just teething apparently. The dr checked him over and apparently everything is fine, he's just teething. Whatever.

On other news, I'm in good spirits today. I'm doing all the laundry. (I know, a day later than normal, but I decided to wait so I have the optimum clothes for my babes washed). I also made supper already so all I have to do is put it in the oven tonight, which is really going to help me out later on. I made homemade mac and cheese and sausuages. YUM! Then I did the dishes and am hanging out down here for awhile.

Later on, after I get all Paul's laundry done, (it's in the dryer right now), I have to pack up all his stuff for his 'vacation' at Grandmas. I am going to miss him SOOOOO much!!!! I haven't even told him about it yet. I will wait till a bit later today to tell him. I am currently waiting for Lisa to call me so I can confirm what 'extra' things she wants me to bring for Paul's vacation. That way I don't miss anything. I'm looking forward to sleeping in Thurs and Fri and having that break though. :)

Other than that, I am not up to an awful lot. I will probably just hang out and what not. I am not sure when Chris will be home tonight. I don't expect to see him till late, so that is probably a good thing.

Anyways, that's my news for now. Leave a note
