It’s turning into a horror movie over here. We just found some large furry blob in the bottom drawer of the drawers the mice have been getting into. One of them was getting all cozied up for winter, with rice and little bits of popcorn all collected in there. That furry blob was so very [...]
That last post, written a few short hours ago, feels way to light-hearted after what we’ve just discovered.
Poop. In the cutlery drawer.
I called Marc in tears, asking him to come home because I did not have the emotional stability to think about tackling the rest of the mess in the kitchen plus carefully cleaning out [...]
If you followed Marc and I on Twitter, this is what you would’ve read this past Saturday night and Sunday morning:
Dixie 10:59pm: I thought I heard little squeaks last night and now we don’t know if it’s mice turds or flax on the counter. Yuck! Yuck! Yuck!
Dixie 11:07pm: Okay. I think the little bugger(s) have [...]
I do enjoy themed parties. So off we go, about an hour down the road, to cheer for the Roughriders with fellow displaced Saskatchewanians who live in Manitoba. (And apparently my mom, who I KNOW is a fan of the themed party, had a sixth sense about this, because she sent these shirts and hats [...]
(You should all try my friend Collette’s flax cookie recipe. They’ve been a hit every where I’ve served them. Definitely don’t be deterred by what you’re about to read…)
I definitely have a post formulating about this subject. But for now, go read Marc’s post about what we discovered last night. Let me just say that [...]
It feels early, but all of Christmas seems to be coming early this year. And we will be gone for about ten days over the holidays, so we should enjoy it while we can. Christmas in the little trailer. (And of course we brought the big tree to Manitoba and left the mini tree in [...]
So I’d say I officially have the flu. Luckily, it’s not one of those completely floor you, laying in the bed for a week flues. The stomach bug, which turned into lightheadedness, is now headache, cough, and nasal congestion. But, because I’ve been feeling so weak that I have to lay down every time I’m [...]
I got an email just now from Lisa updating me on her first few days at home with her new baby boy Ishaq. (Hooray, Lisa! I’m so happy for you guys!) And at the end of the email she asked how things were going here and what was with all the “poo” talk I’ve been [...]
Even though I said, “Let’s play guys!”, Luke complained when I turned the tv off after their second viewing of their new Curious George Christmas dvd today. I said, “Come on guys! Have you ever seen Curious George watching tv? No! He’s always having adventures!” Luke’s response? “Oooo! I want to watch that one!”
and, for the first time since we moved in, EVERY ROOM IN THE TRAILER IS CLEAN AND ORGANIZED, with everything in its place! I will celebrate by sitting on my ass and watching a movie.
