Wow what a nice weekend! And finally I'm off so I can enjoy it a bit. Well, not too much seeing as how I need to be resting and such but still I can sit out for a bit, and let Chris do all the work that needs to get done!

Things around here have been very hectic, but thats not a bad thing. We've been getting ready for our big family bbq tomorrow but it looks like it might just be Chris's parents and ourselves. My mom is in Montreal visiting my brother as well as my grandmother who is in the hospital following a heart attack she had recently. And well my dad is a no show but we already knew that. Thanks dad!

Work has been pretty good, I've been picking up some hours here and there and so far I'm really enjoying it. I've been working more daytime hours which is really great and I think I'm doing a pretty good job. At least, no one has said anything to me otherwise so I take that as a positive thing.

Chris is busy,busy, busy with work. He is enjoying it though, even with this terrible heat we've been having. Today he is out on the boat, doing some fishing. He just bought a new rod and reel from Le Baron's yesterday so hopefully he is enjoying them today. Maybe his dad is there too, who knows!

Plans for today are just to tidy up, get some last minute groceries and maybe see a movie. Basically just relaxing as much as possible. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend so far!

Happy May long weekend! Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend and a productive one at that!

Chris is currently at his family cottage redoing the roof, it is a big family effort with most of his whole family out there helping out so hopefully he finishes that and can come home tomorrow. Work wise we are both kicking it up a notch with lots of working, and the two dogs left behind are sad sad babies I tell you that. My mom stayed over last night in order to snuggle and spend time with the babies. Thanks Mom!

I've worked all weekend, last night, tonight and then a double tomorrow. I've been all over the city and its killing me. I am starting to hate driving! Then tomorrow night after work I'm headed to Montreal to spend some time with my mom and maybe my brother depending if my slave driver dad lets him have time off. We'll see!

I went out and spent a fortune on safe sun products like sunscreen, face cream with sunblock and lidocane burn cream lol. Last weekend Chris and I had a little...boating misfortune and I had quite the burn so now I will never be without sunscreen again. Heck no to cancer I say!

Anyways, time to shower and then head off to work. Have a happy safe weekend!

We bought a patio set!

Yay!

The set itself seats 4, plus we have a picnic table in the back which seats like 6 so bbq's at our place are going to rock! The umbrella is black and the cushions are
beige, we are so ultra modern lol.

With that I would like to remind everyone who was invited that the BBQ is still Sunday, May 30th at around 4pm. Hope to see you all there!

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!

An exciting time for everyone, moms especially! Today is the one day a year that we celebrate our mothers. I won't even get in to how wrong this day is on so many levels. If you celebrate the day then congrats to you.

We have been having some crazy weather here lately. On my way in to work last night there was heavy snow! Imagine, May 8th and I had to drive slowly due to a snow storm. If thats not a sign of global warming I don't know what else you need to see.

Chris went to his parents this evening for a Mothers Day bbq, I stayed home and slept like Rip Van Winkle. I am really looking forward to sleeping all day tomorrow and then heading up to the cottage for a little rest and relaxation. It will be nice to be able to sleep there overnight at the same time as other people. I'm really looking forward to it.

Chris is going to be redoing a basement while I try to rest up for a hectic work week.

Hope everyone had a great weekend and a wonderful Mothers Day!

Today is a very special day! Its Roxy's 1st birthday! What a big girl! Today will be spent doing pretty much nothing, although I do have a hankering to take the kids to the dog park so maybe we will do that. Thankfully it is a bright sunshiny day.
