I don’t know if you could detect it, but when I wrote my last post, I was very low in spirits. One might even say that I was blue. I later realized that it was Blue Monday, the saddest day of the year! I was sad on Blue Monday! I’m a walking cliche. The tide […]
High Street Bingo

Starting back to school on a Tuesday after a holiday virtually guarantees that I will be in a constant state of confusion for the entire week. This week has been no exception. Yesterday I had to keep reminding myself that it was WEDNESDAY and that the following day was THURSDAY and I had committed to […]
I’m singing! And I’m in the post office. And I’m SINGING!
December 10, 2012 by
Hey, what has two thumbs and just made it in and out of the post office in less than five minutes? THIS GIRL. I had to mail a package to my in-laws – because I’m such a fabulous daughter-in-law – and I was psyching myself up for total mayhem and trauma. I was even ready […]

SANTA’S COMING (in less than three months)
September 26, 2012 by
Yesterday I kept hearing people say “It’s only three months until Christmas!” which got me to feeling like this: SANTA’S COMING! Of course, in three months from today I will be either a) taking down the tree and packing up the decorations because that is ENOUGH Christmas, or b) wishing I was taking down the […]
Going to the zoo, zoo, zoo…
July 24, 2012 by
Are you ready for this? The shower doors are finished! Our renovations are completed! Wheeeeee. Pictures to follow, but for now I’m just excited and relieved and the teensiest bit annoyed that the head contractor wanted to come and pick up the final cheque immediately, without us being able to test things out. Hey buddy, […]
