POTD #5

this picture is about dinner!!!! yep, dinner! the one thing I hate thinking about each and every day. You see, I'm really am a science kind of person, you know, formulas etc, and cooking doesn't do that...but baking does...I love baking, and if I had more time I would probably bake each and every day. But dinners, that's a completely different dilema. I hate the question, what's for dinner....and yet, there is one thing that makes this chore a bit less daunting...my crockpot. Tonight its a roast dinner, I put the frozen roast in at 10 this morning and by 6pm, dinner is cooked......

so today's picture is strange....yes, strange! But I had a long day at work, and felt extremely dusty and dirty and wanted nothing but to have a shower....and you know how it is...you get in, the water is hot and you just don't want to ever get out, the world kind of just evaporates for a little while and all your worries and cares too. And one of the best things about this new place is the awesome shower head in our bathroom, it's like standing under a rain cloud and it feels soooo good!!!!

okay so another day has come and thinking about my picture today was fun...I almost took a pic of the big apple outside of the Apple Store in Richmond Centre, but thought I would look like a fool taking it....lol...so I didn't....

Today's picture is about things that make me happy....my Cinnamon Dolce Frapp....if only it would refill itself so I wouldn't run out.... ;D

Missing Vegas!

I have been feeling the urge a lot lately, the urge to jump on a plane and get back to Vegas. But not for what most people who go to Vegas for, not the glam, the glitz or the gambling...no for me it's for the chance to see Andy and Mike again. Both Tim and I wish they lived closer to us, they are such amazing friends, the type that you can spend a year apart, yet fall into instant conversation like no time has passed. They are easily our dearest friends and miles that seperate us get lost when we are together for those few days in Vegas. Whether it's hanging out in a casino, going out for dinner, or getting a tour of the vast dessert, we always have fun, no matter what....the hardest part of our friendship has alway been saying goodbye...and knowing that it will be months, maybe even a year til we can see each other again...sure do miss those two.

well I seem to be off to a good start, today I actually had many options of what I wanted my picture of the day to be. I worked on bookkeeping most of the day, so there was option one, I did all the sheets and blankets, option two, we went for Jordyn's grad dress fitting, option three and so on. Today was one of those days where it could be anything...but here's what I decided would be the photo of the day.........





This is the vanity that used to be in Jordyn's room. Since I don't have a desk and she didn't have room for it, I have been using it in the kitchen, but it was very dirty and worn looking, so I painted it yesterday and now I have a nice little corner in the kitchen for the phone etc.

Picture of the day

okay, since everyone seems to be doing it...lol..I figured I would give it a try for the month of March and see what I've captured by month's end, then I will do a LO of it. So today my picture is of my "new" Iphone...it's new to me, but Tim's handme down. I have finally left the world of "stupid" phones and entered the world of "smart" phones. Here's to hoping my learning curve can figure it all out before the iphone is obselete...hahaha!!!

25 years!!!!!

that how long I remember it being that migraines have been a part of my life. Today I woke up with one, and although I took 2 Excedrin migraine pills, I don't feel a bit better. And top that off with nausea, and well, my day is a total write off. I honestly can't even put a number to the amount of days having a migraine has taken away from me. Days go by and I lay in wait of it to go away, just a little reprieve, praying that it will only be there for one day, not linger for sometimes as long as a week. My brain feels like it's being dragged along concrete, the shear pain causing me to only half open my eyes sometimes due to the brightness of the world around me. And the nausea, sometimes that is worse then the pain in my brain....that's the combo that usually does me in completly. I just can not function when I feel like this, I want to disappear, escape my own body and never know this pain again. The missed days of work, of family life, of just being able to get out of bed and function....I have given so much time to this horrible affliction, that I am done! If I could get back all the lost time I am sure it would add up to at least a year or more. So please please head....just stop hurting!!!!!
