darn! wkends over!

well! that weekend sure went quick! it has been so long since i have blogged i think my fingers forget how to type! Hectic hectic round here lately. short version is...workwise, crazy as ever! but our one new girl dina is just fabulous! so much energy and enthusiasm she really makes my day seem so much better! hopefully she is someone we can rely on. We are still looking for 2 more with very little prospects. :( I'm keepin hope alive tho!!!
Victoria had her first day of school! Grade 5!!!!! She is getting so old i just dont think i can take it!!! She is really loving her new school and already i have noticed the difference in their procedures from her old one, so i am loving this school tooo!! She has made friends she says and so far has no complaints! which is huge for her!
I did a little shopping this wkend thinking that i deserved it, and bought some new mags, some new albums and a couple misc. items i didnt really need. I even bought jess a book...by a comedian who he just loves Ron White. He is definitely pretty funny and jess was downstairs laughing for over an hour. I dont know how he reads, but if you ever get the chance to see this guy on tv or in person you definitely should! He has a great delivery and gives me a giggle.
I hopped over to denise's new store today (Designer Digitals if you didnt know she moved from sbe) and bought her fabulous new kit and quick page!! i was so excited as i do most of my online shopping in the morning and at her new store it was all up and ready to go and i didnt have to wait til nite time to see if she had any new stuff. Yes, i know. Small things make me happy, lol. Anyways, thanks Denise!!! the new kit rocks!!!
I got some of my sponsor layouts done today...the first layouts i have done in 2 months!!! im going crazy!! I can't upload yet cuz they were for the newsletter at raks, but i will upload them in a few days.
hmmmmm......what else?? Jess is still planning on going hunting in a few weeks with his dad. A real bone of contention with us right now, one, cuz i dont want him to be gone over the holidays(thanksgiving here in canada), but i could get over that cuz he doesnt see his dad much. But reason number 2 is that WHAT ABOUT ME????? Am i to be left running our stores that are understaffed and totally needing attention right now 24/7 all by myself? It seems that i have made plans, and then due to work, have had to cancel. But never anybody else. Im feeling mighty upset about it right now, but when i try to tell him that im feeling overwhelmed by all that will have to be done, with work and the kids....i mean there really couldnt be a worse time right now with the way the centres are....all he thinks is that im trying to manipulate him out of going cuz i didnt want him to go in the first place. arrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhh!!!! men
ok...venting done.
on to new topics. Is anybody else as disappointed as me with the turnabout on Big Brother All Stars???? I am a big will and janelle fan, but i got up and yelled hoorahhh!! when she kicked him out...cuz he did deserve it after all. But now that she got the boot and that Erika of all people are in the final 2 i wanna pull my hair out. She is driving me up a wall. I had the live feeds, and i cancelled them when i heard her talking about how she had been responsible for everyones eviction...not chilltown. I mean really! I would have cancelled it anyways cuz i was just trying it out, and who wants to watch her and boogie for 4 days by themselves???? not me. But that just made me make a point of it. I just really dont like her. Sigh. The life and disappointments of a reality tv buff, lol!!
I think that is all that is new....im sure i missed a bunch of stuff. Was going to upload some awesome photos i took , (subject awesome...not awesome photography, lol), but jess is yelling at me to help him carry something heavy. will try to tomorrow!!
tata for now!!!!

Men just don't get it, and I don't think every truly will. Somehow we women always manage to muddle through. I hope you find some time to relax soon!

It is amazing how different everyone can look just by changing their hair!

I hope the transition to the big girl bed is easy for everyone ;) I'd be glad to get Sarah out of our room, but I don't think that will be happening any time soon.

Aw thanks very much Jane. :) I'm glad you like the new stuff. Yes, it's great over at DD, Katie and Randy work so hard, and it's awesome to see the new stuff up at the beginning of the day on Sunday.

Speaking of working hard...sounds like you're busy busy busy! I hope you get time to rest and catch up too sometimes. You're one of them super women aren't you? I should have known.
