Hello World!

Yes,I'm still here.
I've discovered face book and well.....

I received a set of pulse warmers back in the summer from a very sweet ,generous lady.
To tell the truth I had never heard of them before and was a little skeptical when I heard they could keep you warm.
I was feeling chilly yesterday so I decided to pull them out and give them a try.Let me tell you people they WORK! I love love love them.

Not only do they keep you warm they are stylish. You feel so fancy wearing them. I wore them to the grocery store yesterday you would not believe how many ladies stared at me..I'm sure it was the pulse warmers getting all the attention and not the fact that when I had them on I would show P the items in the fruit and veggie section like Vanna White showing off the letters on Wheel of Fortune...

Later Peeps,

If I were a mushroom...

Deadly but beautiful! LOL

Autumn is here.

Per and I went up to the cabin this morning just after we got E off to school.
Our plan was to install the new lock and close things up for the winter.
It was such a beautiful day he decided to cast a few times in the lake, while I wondered around looking for mushrooms and berries.
We didn't want to leave..The weather was perfect and the the place is so inviting.We decided NOT to close things up for the winter..Just yet... We have plans to go back up this weekend and spend the day..We know what's headed our way so we need to make the most of these gorgeous Autumn days.
Here are just a few of the pictures I took this morning.

Sunshine on a RAAAAINY day...

I woke up feeling a little down in the dumps... it was rainy out... I had to drag myself to the mail box...Much to my surprise, the sun was shining inside my mail box. WHAT!?! How can this be?The SUN inside my mail box?

Sorting through the mail I came across a letter addressed to me.
The envelope had cherries, a turtle,a penguin and the cutest moose standing by a tree.When I opened it there was a very thoughtful letter inside.The letter AND the envelope made my day!!!

I want to say thank you to TWO very special people...You two know who you are!

1+1=11...

When life seems a little overwhelming and you struggle to make sense of it all... just remember this will pass and things will get better!


Thank you Emily for teaching me that sometimes life is as simple as 1+1 =11 ( 1...1...11)

Oh noooo!

Face Book has been taking time away from my blog.

Random thoughts...

Well summer break is over for S.We took him back up to University this weekend.
WOW! This house feels empty,clean*giggles* and so very quiet.You all know E is a very quiet little angel.
There were a few surprises when we got there.First the weather was beautiful SUNNY and REALLY warm. I really didn't expect the nice weather 7 hours FURTHER north.It was a nice relief none the less.

Second his apartment...WAS REALLY CLEAN! Except for being closed up 6 weeks and needing a dusting the place was perfect.Clean dishes,neatly folded clothes,towels and dish towels put in place,and the frig was cleared and fresh. NOT A MOLDY piece of fruit in sight and get this the rugs were hanging on the balcony to "air out".I wasn't sure how to feel.Happy or Sad?
Happy there was no mess waiting for me or sad I was no longer needed.Then I started thinking,this is the same kid that was just home for 6 weeks.The same kid that refused to make his bed because he feels awkward lying in a made up bed during the day while watching TV and eating.The same kid that left dirty socks/clothes ALL over the house.The same kid that would forget the dirty dishes he left in his room,his sisters room,the living room and outside on the picnic table.
It felt suspicious then a *LIGHT BULB MOMENT* we remembered his nice neighbor lady! Hmmm.

While I'm glad he is safely back up there in his own space WE ALL MISS him terribly and look forward to his next break.When he does come someone PLEASE remind us how we felt this day! Ha ha ha!

We still have no diagnoses for E.I'm stressed to the limit and pray the test we take tomorrow will give us answers and we can move forward.

I'm really excited to announce we have officially started work on the new Sun room! According to S we are not allowed to call it a porch after hearing E's and my plans for it.LOL! Pictures will go up soon as the work progresses!

TTYL Peeps,
