There is absolutely nothing going on here! Kids are good. Haven't gone anywhere. Haven't done anything interesting. It's just really quiet and relaxed. Neat, huh?

Surviving being alone with two thirds of the kids. Somehow it makes a big difference when there is one missing. However, it's amazing that just two kids can still find things to constantly fight about. It drives me crazy!I made 'leftover stew' for supper. The kids hate it. I also made garlic toast. The kids love it. Somehow when you mix the after taste of garlic toast with the after taste of diet

Just had a Jehovah's Witness at the door. Scripture quoted and everything. Smile and nod. "Come back when my husband is home, he'll love talking to you!" The woman was completely flabbergasted that I was married, and then she just about fell over when I told her I had three kids. Then I found out she's the same age as me. I love looking young.

I'm off to a baby shower today. I love babies. They are so cute. Especially the brand new ones. Even their crying doesn't bother me! Makes me think for just a crumb of a millisecond about having another one. (I squash those thoughts as fast as I can; I've had enough babies.)Clint should be returning from Vernon this evening. Then he's off to Georgia. Crazy travelling man. Someday he'll stay home.

Wow what a week!We left on the 5th for Rathtrevor Beach where we had reserved a walk-in campsite. Same place we went last year. We stayed overnight in Kamloops along the way at a very nice Travelodge hotel. Off for the Island again the next morning. It took all day. The girls loved riding the ferry. It was almost bedtime by the time we set up our beast of a tent.On Thursday we drove to Tofino.

Well we're back from camping trip #2. Short rest before taking off for trip #3.What a weekend! Read Clint's description. It will shock and amaze you. My description? It rained. It was sunny. There were no wasps. A few mosquitos though. The first half of the weekend was rowdy. The second half tranquil. Awesome hiking around part of a lake and out to a waterfall. Lots of pictures, flirting, dirty

Just hours away from building a fire and sleeping in the great outdoors. Sans children. I decided the other day it's a crying shame I don't have a guitar. I could bring it and play it while sitting around the fire. And we could sing campfire songs ... 'I'm so ronery, so ronery, so ronery and sad and arone'. (That song has firmly embedded itself in my brain and won't let go. I haven't been able to

Done the birthday parties for the month. About time too. I was really getting sick of birthday cake! Refusing it this afternoon was easy - it was chocolate. For some reason I can't stomach chocolate cake! We had a whole crap load of people here - let me see if I can count them all ... 22 I think. However, I didn't have to do any work. I got to sit back and watch the whole process. Most of them

Sarah's birthday party has come and gone. Of the 11 people she invited from school (including her teacher), only one parent called to inform me her son wouldn't be able to attend due to a soccer tournament he had that day (many thanks to her!). No one else bothered to call or show up. Good riddance to the school then! At least all of our regular friends were there. We celebrated with a pinata, a

We attended Laura's pre-school graduation last night. It was the last pre-school graduation we'll ever see (sniff). It was a predictable mix of organization and complete chaos. How do you get 60 or so 3-5 year olds to sit still and sing 6 songs in front of an audience? And keep their gowns and caps on straight? And not lift up their dresses (and play with their underwear for all to see -

Camping stuff is strewn about my living room screaming for me to put it away already. And there are dishes waiting to be washed and put away. Laundry too. But, I don't feel like it right now. I feel like sitting in the sun, reading a book and sipping iced tea. With ice. And I want to have a bath. With bubbles. That smell nice. And I'll paint my toe nails. On my incredibly cute feet.

You're an awesome Dad.We spent the majority of the weekend camping in downpour. Not rain, downpour! You know, like when you pour water out of a bucket? It doesn't sprinkle out. Rain wouldn't have been so bad. Everything is wet. Everything is cold. Everything is dirty. There were lakes and rivers everywhere. The people at the campsite next to us left in the middle of the night. There is a 6" deep

Well, it seems like a zoo sometimes.We're celebrating Laura's birthday today. First: dinner at Treasures of China. Laura loves that place and has asked at least twice a week since our last visit to go there again. No Chuck-e-cheese for this kid! "Give me fish and vegetables!" It's weird. But I like it. After dinner we'll all converge at chez Waller for cake and presents and the zoo-like behaviour.

It smells like Holland, sounds like camping. I think I can say this with some certainty ... spring has arrived in Calgary. ha. The rest of the northern hemisphere has had spring for at least two or three months already. I don't mind rain so much; it's not snow. It makes everything so green and the birds sing more. It's so nice. But it has been raining for at least a week now and the lack of

“There has to be something there of your own. You have to struggle to find your own way to give it expression. If it’s a fresh thought then it’s likely the form will be fresh too. It all comes down to what the artist has to say. It’s no good spending your whole life splashing around with paint if you have nothing to splash around about." - Sybil Andrews

Most of our weekend was spent with Dave Richard. We hadn't seen him in about 7 years. He doesn't have a nickname yet; we have "Uncle Dave" and "Naked Dave", it's easy to tell which Dave we were talking about there. Now we have just Dave. Anyway, we hung out at Prince's Island Park, throwing rocks in the river and looking at baby geese. I wanted to touch one, but the fear of having my ass bitten

First of all Thankyou to Crystal for recommending me! I love the haircut!I had my hair done yesterday. I was a hair model for a cutting class at Swizzlesticks, and Sarah Richardson was my stylist. I highly recommend her!!! She layered it and then blow-dried it straight (I love straight hair) and it looks great.

I'm torn between two classes I would like to take. The first is colour theory (self-explanatory), which would be practical, and the other is body piercing jewellery (I would learn where the body can and can't be pierced and making the jewellery; unfortunately no actual piercing will be done). The choice may be decided for me depending on availability, since they both start at the end of this

The weatherman was threatening us with snow yesterday. It can't snow now. I have stuff growing in my garden! The strawberry plants have flowers on them! My first tulip is just opening up! And I've been wearing shorts!We're going to plant an apple tree in the back yard. It's going to be a veritable fruit salad back there. Strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, plums from the neighbour's yard

Nothing new and exciting happening here. Bathroom's not done yet. Sarah had tonsillitis this weekend. She stayed home from school yesterday and today but is returning tomorrow. West Jet doesn't have enough planes available for Laura's field trip on Thursday, so we're going to tour the airport instead. We have to pay for our own parking. I sat outside in shorts almost all day today, reading books

and Sarah is back in school today. It's really quiet around here now! On Friday I had my three kidlets plus Kyra and Chay - a mini zoo. Friday evening we had their parents over for dinner and games (mexican train and rummoli! Clint's 'favourites'). On Saturday I took Sarah shopping as a reward for cleaning her room. In the evening we went to Treasures of China for dinner with Crystal, Dave,

The bathroom is coming along nicely. It has been gutted, sanded, swept and washed. This evening the walls will be primed and the plywood and plastic will be put on the floor in preparation for the ceramic tile.

We had our easter egg hunt the other day. There was way too much chocolate and jelly beans (I purchased about a quarter of what was there), but there were 17 people here. Fortunately we didn't end up with too much in the end. We packaged it all up in plastic eggs and hid them all over the house. They were colour-coded, each child had 30 of a certain colour they were looking for. Their hunt lasted

I have purchased materials to redo the main floor bathroom. It's actually happening! Now! New pedestal sink. New faucet. Two cans of paint in warm colours. A lovely framed mirror. And stuff to go along with them. Next I will purchase the tile, grout and mortar. And stuff to go along with them. And a new light fixture. And some shelving. I can't sit still. I can't wait to begin!Woot!

I spent 4 hours in the presence of over 50 kids today. Laura's preschool class had a field trip to the Science Centre, and I, like some sort of bozo, decided to volunteer as a helper. That meant I got a bus ride to and from the centre, as well as free admission ($11.00 value!). However, I was in charge of 4 of these wandering angels (including my own of course).

I'm deluding myself into thinking spring has arrived in Calgary. It's stupid. I am fairly certain I will be disappointed before too long. But it's so nice out! Has been for the majority of the last month! It's warm and sunny. There's green grass in the backyard and last years strawberry plants still have green leaves! What does it mean?

I need to dress up more often. I'm tired of wearing frumpy 'housework' clothes all the time. Who says I can't vacuum in a mini skirt?! Or dust and wash windows in heels. Okay, I do. But seriously. I wore a skirt today. Laura's teachers: "You're all dressed up so early in the morning!" "Wow, you're dressed up with no where to go!" No, that's not quite true. I was dressed up to go grocery shopping

I had such a bizarre weekend! Nothing notable on Friday, but Saturday! First was Kyra's birthday party at the Sheraton hotel water park. The kids can wear their life-jackets everywhere, so we didn't have to supervise them as closely as at the vslc, and we all had a lot more fun. There were 19 kids at this party. 19 KIDS.

Nuts. I've been horribly tired every day for the last few weeks, to the point where if I sit down I fall asleep within minutes (and have Laura wake me up by poking my face). No good. I had some furniture that needed rearranging (moving beds and dressers from one room to another) and couldn't afford to sleep the day away.

My 'little' brother Kris turns 23 today. I hear he's spending the day in the mountains strapped to a snowboard. Lucky bastard. ;-) I don't think we'll be affording that sort of thing this year.

I've been lying around in a neo-citran drug haze, with ringing ears, sneezing and sniffling and shouting "what?" anytime someone says something. I HATE BEING SICK!

And I don't mean in a drunk way. That wouldn't be so bad. Clint's been gone almost two weeks. I don't know when he's coming home! He is scheduled to return on Sunday. BUT some people have decided that he should stay longer. 'We'll stick to your scheduled return, but we'll see what happens. Stay until the work is done.' It doesn't sound promising; they keep finding more things for him to do. "

I felt like I was still 15 until this weekend. OMG. Rollerskating yesterday. It's been 9 (NINE) years since I wore a pair of rollerskates! I was wobbly, shaky and pathetic ... for at least an hour and a half. Then I warmed up (after a kid knocked me down ... the place was full of them ... they were everywhere!) and I did the hokey pokey! (I think there are pics of that somewhere.) Unfortunately

The kids are staying at my Mom's house tonight ... I'm not sure what I'm going to do with myself! I'll probably light some candles, pour a drink, watch a movie and paint. Go to bed early-ish. Tomorrow I'm going to go tanning, do a workout, put together a bday present for Jackie, and then I'll be ready for her 'party' in the afternoon. We're going rollerskating at Lloyd's and then to Cheesecake

Yesterday I was picking the kids up from school, and while I was listening to them chatter about this and that, I heard a horrible noise. Sounded like someone was spinning their tires. I looked around to see who the esteemed street polisher was. To my surprise and amusement, it was a Purolator truck ... a big semi-sized truck with the double wheels, and they were spinning. For a good five minutes

I know nothing about html or code or anything else that has to do with the skeleton of making these pages look like this (I'm an artist, not a computer 'geek'). It was a real pain in the ass trying to find out where to put the code for the ads. Finally ... after about 10 tries, I got it right. So look! Ads on the right. Just a trial.

I played laser tag yesterday. It's been a few years since the last time I was there ... I forgot how fun it was. I came in second place on my team in both games, but I was playing against a bunch of kids and only about 10 adults, half of them were 'babysitting' kids during the first game. I surprise myself every time at how competitive I am when I play that game! I'm not very competitive in

Wee! National dress up your pet day! I remember torturing cats when I was younger, putting them in doll dresses and bonnets and tying ribbons on them. Of course they all hated it. I don't have any cats right now ... just "Captain Jack" the goldfish. Not sure how I'm gonna dress him up. I'll have to think about that for a bit.

Today is Jillian's birthday. I got her some helium-filled balloons, and took her to get her ears pierced. She did very well - she didn't even cry. What a trooper! Her party is on Sunday afternoon at good old McD's. 7 kids confirmed so far. We were going to have it at the leisure centre in their gym, but they didn't call back until today. Too bad for them. It's really cold. Somewhere around -36

I have grown weary of being cheerful and light hearted and trying to make something of myself. Fuck you all. I have no friends, I have no skills, I have no purpose. I'll just sit here like a rotten lump pretending to be something worthwhile.

I know, some of you will be getting sick of these by now. But really, I haven't filled out one in a long time ... at least two months! Time for a new one!!! WOO HOO. 1.

HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE! (I practically roared that!) Party was successful. People showed up. Tons of food and alcohol. We nibbled, we drank. We made lots of noise. A game of shooter chess was played with 25% alcohol. We took pictures. Clint locked himself in our closet. I lit the fireworks. That's right, I did it. Me. Even though "I'm just a girl". I danced in the snow and hollered. Most of my

I have been without kids for the majority of two days now; it's really weird to wake up at 9:30 to a very quiet house. We could eat whenever we wanted, go and do whatever we wanted, play music and movies as loud as we want without worrying about waking up the kids. It was weird. After dropping them off at my Mom's house on Tuesday, we went to cheap movie night at a cheap theatre ($4 for the two

Christmas is over, and I am now eyeing the tree as being some sort of nuisance that must be taken down. This will horrify all of my friends and family though, so it will come down tomorrow instead. HA. Had a relatively relaxed weekend so far ... dinner at Crystal and Dave's on the eve, quiet morning with the kids yesterday opening gifts n stuff. Clint spoiled me with a digital (a real one this

Today is Roots Day. It is also our 8th Anniversary. I have the "cornbread anniversary" song stuck in my head today. If ya want it, email me. It's ... different. Baking today. I have quite a list, and it will take me all day. No doubt the kids will want to help and make a mess. Sometimes it drives me CRAZY. But how are they ever going to bake stuff and cook me dinner if I don't teach them?!

National date-nut bread day. I was going to make some fruit and nut bread ... does that count? I'm sitting here in the middle of the day (the kids will be bugging me for lunch any minute now ...) in my jammies. There is so much I should be doing right now. But I'm just sitting here drinking juice, surfing the net, being totally lazy. Yay, holidays! The girls are watching CBCKids and playing with

I had a truly terrifying dream last night. I was driving down a country road with someone, in a car with little substance (as they usually do in my dreams). Coming towards me was a hag (really, hag is the only word to describe her appearance). She was on a bike that had a wide seat. Beside her was a dog, on her lap was a cat. She had a very blank facial expression - very steady, never changing.

Just started my second 'lesson' on bellydancing. I'm still a far cry from professional, but after trying it in front of other people and they didn't laugh at me, I feel confident that I am making progress. Just a few years ago I couldn't dance at all. Very cool. Now I just need to work on singing ...

Today is national lemon cupcake day. They're trying to make us fat, you know. So far this month there's been a rich chocolate cake day, ice cream day, bouillabaisse day, and now lemon cupcakes! Fortunately I haven't eaten any of these. Just some hershey kisses and After 8's. Can't resist the After 8's.
