For today......or actually tonight as it's almost 11:30pm :)

Outside My Window... It's almost dark.   The porch light is on.  I can see one lonely star in the sky.  The hummingbird feeder is hanging above the Honeysuckle and there are little moths fluttering around the porch lights.

I am thinking...that I got ready too early to go out this evening...yes it's 11:30pm and I'm about to go out!!!  How crazy is that???  My life is quite the adventure these days!!  Saturday evening I had just finished watching a movie and was planning to have an early night when the phone rang and it was Chris (he doesn't live at home any more but is happily renting a place in town)....he asked me if I would head into town and buy some alcohol for him and his friends for their party as I was the only parent they knew who would be willing to head out that late and do that kind of thing....so Susannah and I headed out on an adventure looking for a liquor store open until midnight and then stocked up the truck and then had to head out into the wilds of Alberta to find this acreage in the middle of nowhere at 1am......it was so much fun!!!  And now tonight I am heading out at midnight for another adventure...and to think just a few short weeks ago my life was soooo dull :)  lol!!

I am thankful for...my amazing children - all of them are so incredible - so helpful, so accepting, so kind and thoughtful and fun and loving and just wonderful young people!!!  I am s proud of them all!

From the kitchen...Not a lot......omg I must admit that over recent weeks my kitchen skills have deteriorated....I have had much more interesting things to focus on...... :)

I am wearing...lacy matching undies....brown top, brown jacket, black jeans.... :)

I am creating... a new life....I'm also taking part in Kara Haupt's FABULOUS new class called The Summer of Love....which is all about photography and journaling.


I am going... on three exciting trips later this year and I can't wait to share them with you guys!!!  I am very excited about them :)  

I am reading...the most amazing Emails.....almost all day and night......they lift my spirit and make me feel incredible and loved.

I am hoping... that this feeling of happiness and renewed spirit continues.....I am enjoying the adventure.

I am hearing... the television in the other room - Laurence is curled up on the sofa watching tv.

Around the house... things are very relaxed and happy - more so than they have been in years :)

One of my favorite things...facebook and how it has reconnected me with my friends again - thank you Nigel for pushing me to do that!!

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...Tomorrow Sharon is coming to spend the day here which will be wonderful!!!  In the evening I am meeting Tracy and Tess at the farmers market with the children and then we are going to the playground afterwards.  Thursday I am hoping to spend with Darren watching his Daughter and her friend attempt to put his tent together :) .  Friday I am having breakfast with Val - our last before school is out!  Friday evening I am going to Boonstock 2010 - the music fest up by Gibbons - with Darren.  

I'm not sure what is happening at the weekend yet.....I guess it will depend on the childrens plans and the weather...I know Laurie has a party Saturday evening....and Susannah was hoping to have her best friend to stay...

New me....






Just a little update for anyone who hasn't been on facecrack with me....I'm now a single Mom but don't worry I'm ultra happy and enjoying the ride.....in fact this Summer is turning in to quite the adventure :)  

I would actually say I'm probably happier than I have been in a long time...which surprises me a LOT!!  I have a busy few months to look forward to.  So much to share with you all :)  


Thinking about it.....

I think I need to blog again....I miss it sooooo much!!  I tried to start a new blog and posted a few things over there, but it just didn't feel right.  THIS is my blog.  THIS is my home.  THIS is where I write and where I post my pictures.

I think I'm ready to start posting again.  Things may have changed greatly around here and I may be on a new life course.....a new adventure....but life is GOOD...in fact, I would say that life is very VERY Sweet...the title of this blog couldn't be more correct :)

Yes, I think it's time to start writing again :)

Watch this space!!!
