Mope.

I should be on a plane right now....

I should be making my way to Greece (already transferred at Montreal and on the long flight to Athens)...

I should be partying it up with these wonderful folks:


~En route to Athens!~

But instead I'm writing my 'mope' moment for all you poor souls to read while I plan out the school year and get the paperwork ready for the AGM Meeting on the 13th as well as trying to figure out the girls extracurricular activity schedule without riping my hair out (and still having money to feed, clothe and drive them places! *L*)....

I do hope that everyone has enjoyed their summers though, we sure did! Eventually I'll get around to blogging about it all... Maybe I'll have to take a day a week only for blogging (Ha! Two kids in full time school, yay!)....

More soon-ish!

Missing...

I miss my Husband.

<3

That is all.

Uplifting Sadness....

Friday, April 17th Tyler was laid off of work.

This has consumed my life... I have a two day reaction time to most things in my life (pain, tiredness, etc.) and this seems to be kicking in now. We were ready though in the way of having a 'next step' planned.

He will place his name to be sent to the field.

Not horrible but who knows what schedule he may have. And he will have to live there while working.

Which means harder times at home (my girls have been testing a lot lately with me.... Emma especially)....

I know this has happened for a reason. The field was in our five year plan anyways... It's just come a little sooner then we had hoped.

In other news:

Saturday, April 18th was officially our One Year mark in our home! We spent it rushing to get all of our items out of storage so we don't have to worry about that extra $300 payment every month.

Funny... One Year here and Tyler pulls up in a U-Haul to unload boxes that now clutter my house! *L* It's just like a year ago except better weather (thank goodness!)... I'm sure we're the talk of the hood right now! *L*

Anyhoo.... I just wanted to give you a bit of an update. I may have to extend my blogging pause for a little bit longer then I had hoped so I can spend more time with my family as a complete 'family' for the next few weeks......

And then I'll need to write a lot when Tyler is away from home while I'm going crazy with the girls!

More soon!

Geese + South =

A very, VERY sad Mista!

Today I went out to close my back windows of my van (it's been gloomy for the past few days)only to notice that there are Geese flying south!

SOUTH!

Already! Ack!

I know that summer is coming to and end... Especially here in Alberta. We practically live in 10 months of winter and two months of summer. Lately we've had 30+ degree weather....

I LIVE for 30+ weather..... While most people I know are complaining that it's too hot I'm soaking it all in while I can. Must keep my warmth reserve on high for the whole winter! *L*

Now please don't think that I won't go as far as to say 'Yup, it's hot!'.... I'll happily mention how hot it is... But I prefer not to complain about it... I save that up for the -40 weather we get all winter!

Anyhoo, back on track.... So here I am, slightly down by the fact that a few days ago the lake behind out house was hosting a Canadian Geese party only to know that the party theme was 'Bon Voyage!'.....

*sigh*
