My Halloween week is almost at an end
Tomorrow I'll be returning to work. I had a fairly relaxing week off. I worked for 18+ hours on Marty's costume but it turned out awsome so I was happy. My own costume I whipped together very quickly on friday afternoon. lol It turned out pretty damn good considering. I had lunch with Jay on wednesday and met some of his co-workers. My ( Read more... ) -
First day of vacation
I have the whole week off, leading up to Halloween. For my first day off, I was going to sleep in but woke up when I smelled coffee brewing in the kitchen. Don't have anything exciting planned. A bit of laundry, some vacuuming and then I'll work on Marty's costume. Sometimes I wish Marty was a normal boy and wanted to dress like a blood-sucking ( Read more... ) -
We finally set a date for the wedding
Navy Hall has been booked for May 23, 2009. Now we have to choose the caterer. Should we go with Kristin's or Chef Robby? We'll set up a meeting with both and see what they have to offer, then we'll decide. So much freaking work! I wish we could afford a wedding planner to do all this crap. lol ( Read more... ) -
a few minutes to breathe before the madness starts again
Got back from Pennsic a week ago and I've been catching up on laundry ever since. I just finished the last load yesterday and I still haven't ironed all the new fabric I bought. Yards of navy blue and brown linen. Jay is going to be so pretty! Although I probably won't sew again for a few more weeks. I spent the entire month of July sewing to ( Read more... ) -
Awsome Birthday!
Marty and I went to Canada's Wonderland yesterday for my birthday. We rode on the Behemoth twice. It claims to have a 70 degree angle on the first drop but Marty and I both swore the drop almost seemed to curve in on itself and felt more like 90 or 95 degrees! And with the way the designed the new cars, there's nearly nothing in front of you but ( Read more... ) -

ack! sooo busy!
Went to Quebec this weekend for my cousin's wedding. It was good, we all had a lot of fun. Jay made friends with my two bad uncles, of course. The rowdiest ones of the bunch. He spent the whole night "talking" to Oncle Mario. I had to stand between them and translate all night. That was fun. Especially when they were getting drunk. The two ( Read more... ) -
my poor french relatives
I'm off to a wedding in Quebec. 7 hours of driving there and another 7 back. arghh
This should be fun. Jay gets to meet the whole family all at once and most don't speak english. or very little english anyway....
I'll attempt to post pictures when I return.

May 24 weekend, perfect for drinking
But Jay had other things in mind. He thought it would be the perfect time to weed our lawn, plant new grass and prep the corner of the yard intended for my garden. We didn't get quite that far. After working all day, we managed to pull up half the weeds, the back corner is a mess but at least the soil has been turned over and my cedars are ( Read more... ) -
30 km in 2 hours
I'm in pretty rough shape. I remember being able to bike much faster than that but that's okay, it was my first real ride of the season. I'll blame the wind. The first half was west into Wainfleet, against the wind. Coming home through Pelham was much more fun since the wind was now at my back but my knees were already burning from the strain ( Read more... )
