Stuck at home

So I have been stuck at home since we got back yesterday at 1pm......it's so funny how being 'stuck' at home is soooo different to being at home through choice.......

I felt really sick all evening yesterday and most of the night....today I am left with no appetite .....only now at 4pm feeling hungry at last. Laurie also felt ill yesterday and this morning.......

Sam had weird spots this morning that started on his abdomen and then he got them on his legs......they seem to be going now thankfully.........

Lloyd is going to be home later from work today so I am hoping he is home in time that we can salvage part of the evening by doing something........

We have been sat outside this afternoon.........the children have been having a big water fight with water balloons and guns, playing with bubbles, on the trampoline etc etc

Even though I had no appetite this morning I was bored, so while Susie was using her easy bake oven, I made fudge.....I used a recipe from the web as I can't find my tried and trusted recipe......but it didn't work right and instead I ended up with vanilla-raisin caramel squares....the kids love them :)

Lloyd just sent me the funniest email.......he'll probably kill me for posting this here (sorry Lloyd) he emailed me to say he needs to fart really badly but he's in the middle of a meeting and can't!!! Too funny!

Amber and Rosies breeder sent me pictures of her wedding day today...she looked so beautiful and happy! The most beautiful wedding on the beach in Maui. They seem like such a great couple!

I haven't done much today............thankfully tomorrow is supposed to be busy busy busy :) I just hope we are all well enough to enjoy it!

I had to cancel on Ch. for A Taste of Edmonton..........I guess I am just not meant to make it there.............it looked really good on Global this morning too.........

Onwards and upwards..... ;)

Some people are so filled with insecurities and jealousy and anger...it's so sad.........I feel so sorry for them. If only they could learn to move forward and be happy.

Because I love you......



Susannah has been using her Easy Bake oven this morning and presented me with this lemon cake because she loves me :)


Sorry but my children bore me............

I'm not sure why this 'mother' (in the biological term) has TWO children........


"They know better than to expect me to sit through a cricket match, and they've completely given up on expecting me to spend school holidays taking them to museums or enjoying the latest cinema block-boster alongside them. (I spent two hours texting friends throughout a screening of Pirates Of The Caribbean the other day). "

A quote from the above article.

Sophie Tolstoy

"I am a source of satisfaction to him, a nurse, a piece of furniture, a woman - nothing more”

I have been reading about Sophie (Sonya) Tolstoy........and how Leo Tolstoy her husband requested that the couple keep diaries and share them with each other....some of her writings are so sad........she wanted to be so much more to her husband than 'just' a wife and mother.....she had 16 children....three of whom died.........

So I have been reading excerpts from her diaries and I find that she would have fitted in perfectly on todays forums like LP and hunnybeez....it seems many marriages (and the lives of women) haven't changed at all in the almost 150 years since she married Leo.......

I find this couple fascinating...........

Another Champion in the family!!

Just want to brag about Ambers brother Hemi:

"The 2005 results are in and Hemi's very exciting puppy career resulted in him being awarded 2005's #1 Golden Retriever Puppy in Alberta (GRCAB) as well as 2005's #1 Golden Retriever Puppy in Canada (GRCC)!!!!!!"

:) Oh and yes thats Laurence at the top of the page with Amber!!!

Whenever Amber is all scruffy and dirty I always ask her what her mother and brother, the champions, would think of her!!!!! ;) she can't let the side down!!! lol!

And Hemi is also Rosies big brother...older by 18 months.

A snake in the mail!!!
