Well, it’s official. Marc will be using up the last 4 days of his holidays on holidays outside of Prince Albert. Glory, glory, clear the road!
We have been trying to visit our friends in southern Manitoba all summer long. With so many weekends gone to family, home renovations, and now being exhausted with this pregnancy, [...]
Marc is definitely getting frustrated with the large presence of Al Roker in our bed. So much so that last night he threatened to get a body pillow of his own and name it Katie Couric.
This morning Madeline ran across a letter we had received from Compassion Canada. It had several pictures of kids in Indonesia who really needed to be sponsored. She wondered what it was all about — why some of the kids looked sad and why some were smiling. I told her that these kids didn’t have [...]
So far this pregnancy has been both like and unlike my other pregnancies. I feel like I’m much more tired than any other time, but this is probably due to the pace of life with two kids, as opposed to zero or one. I nap everyday, but still get worn out if I exert myself [...]
I’ve been thinking a bit about the difference between men and women lately… about… you know… Why is it acceptable for women to be aroused by romance, but men are perverted if aroused by nudity? I don’t mean just between husband and wife. I mean, why is it okay for me to want to jump [...]
Alright, I don’t know when the new blog design is going to be up and running, as it will take some time for Marc and I to finish, and then some time for LT to get it all together. And, I was going to announce it with the new design, but I’m getting cranky and [...]
I just read this about Steve Irwin’s memorial service and his 8 year old daughter, Bindi, getting up and paying tribute to him. But what really got me was this line: “Today’s memorial service was held at the Australia Zoo, with one seat left empty for Steve, a hat he always wore holding his place.”
Then [...]
Marc went back to work today. I’m still having trouble standing up for more than 2 minutes. The children are horrible creatures. Madeline has been completely disobedient and rude and whiney and has gone beyond my wildest expectations of innappropriate behaviour. And Luke just wants to be where he’s not allowed. And it’s all getting [...]
Last night I dreamt I was giving birth to my first child. In attendance in my hospital room were Marc and my doctor, Randy Friesen. Now, there IS a doctor in this town by that name, but nope, I got the pastor. (And a fine pastor he is.) Lauralea was also there, but I can’t [...]
We’re ALL sick. The four of us all have horrible coughs, scratchy throats and runny noses. It’s not fun. I’m so tired. And I cannot breathe one bit through my nose! Luckily, Marc was a bit worse yesterday when I was just starting to get it, and today I’m really bad, but Marc has been well [...]
