Yesterday was a busy day. Lloyd took the day off and we headed over to West Edmonton to pick up our new kitchen sinks, taps and pot filler for the new kitchen. They all look really nice and I can't wait to see them all in place! I seem to have a collection of sinks now....as we also have the new one for the downstairs bathroom which isn't in yet!
After that we had to head to the Stollery hospital which is the Childrens hospital in Edmonton at the University. there is soooo much construction going on around there so they recommended we get there early due to lack of parking. Luckily we weren't in the actual Stollery building - we were in the adult Neurology building in the Aberhart Centre and they had plenty of parking outside so we were fine :) We were there so early but they saw us straight away - good job too because the assessment took AGES!!!!! The doctor was WONDERFUL!!! OMG couldn't have hoped for anyone better with Abigail - he was fairly young but so great. They did a physical assessment as well as asking a million questions about Abigails day to day life, my history, Lloyds history, Abigails school day, home life.....just about everything!
Then we had to wait for the Consultant! We left around 2:30pm...tired!! Ran to Safeway. Lloyd wanted a burger so we ran to McD's for dinner. It was yucky. I had a hamburger and diet coke. Gave my fries to Lloyd. Yuck. Got home in time to get the kids something to eat and get Abigail to dance and then I headed into town to meet Samantha for coffee.
Samantha and I were supposed to see a movie but there wasn't a movie either of us had really wanted to see and its cheap night so it gets really busy...not my favourite night to go - in fact I HATE going cheap night - I'd rather spend the extra $5 and go on a quiet night. Anyway I kind of didn't want to go so I suggested we just meet for coffee and chat instead - thankfully Samantha agreed! So we sat in Starbucks all evening (until they kicked us out when they closed lol) and chatted and laughed the night away....then we headed back to Samanthas house and met our friend Lori and we chatted until just before midnight. It was a really nice evening.....just catching up. I think Samantha would still have preferred to go to a movie but I think Lori liked just chatting more and i know I did! But then to me a movie is ok if it's a movie you really want to see but I get together with friends to be with my friends and talk with them and you can't talk in a movie.....
I got home and everyone was asleep...Lloyd rolled over and mumbled hello and asked if I was ok....and when I woke up this morning there was a note on my cup of coffee saying he had missed me last night :) so thats nice :) He's out tomorrow night :( and tonight we have to take Abigail to party....Halloween week is a busy week!
Yes today I have a friend of Abigails coming back after school for the afternoon and then I'm taking them to a Monster Bash party at the library.....I have some Halloween crafts and games planned for after school before we go. I thought they'd enjoy that.
Tomorrow Sam has his Halloween party at Pre-K. They get to go Trick or Treating all around Millennium Place :) I might stay there with my camera and get some pictures :)
