Me now.
Lloyd says I'm covered in Pixie Dust........I'm going for a bath :) I'm all Martha-ed out :)
Good Friday - updated :)
Abigail chose a special outfit this morning and asked me if it was nice enough for Jesus.......this is what happens when you send your oldest Daughter to Catholic school. I smiled and said I was sure it was perfect :) I have told her that today is the day that Jesus was nailed to the cross. She knows that later we will have hot cross buns to eat and we will also do a some more Easter crafts...we'll read Easter stories - religion based and non religion based.
Tonight Chris, Lloyd and I will watch The Passion of the Christ. We have it on dvd but have never seen it.
I am Atheist as you're all aware I'm sure. I do believe that Jesus Christ lived. I believe he was a rebel of his time. There is a lot of evidence that he really did live - that he did die on the cross (as many of his time did).....I have a lot of beliefs about that time and about religion. I have taken the Alpha course (some of it) and still remain Atheist. I totally respect other peoples Faith and belief systems - including those of my children. Please respect my mine.
One of my favourite movies is the movie Jesus of Nazareth with Robert Powell. Wonderful movie!!!
Yesterday I put a little surprise in my childrens lunch boxes - they each had a magic fish - one of those tricks where you have a plastic fish that curls up in the palm of your hand - and depending how it curls up you can tell what mood you are in - like a mood ring! We used to get them in Christmas crackers when we were children and I found some in the science store in town a few weeks ago and thought they'd be cool to pop in the childrens lunch bags as a surprise one day!
The two most religious children in the class refused to hold the fish! They said they were evil and that Jesus would not approve of them!
Now see! THIS is what puts me off religion! These ridiculous notions! Because to me THIS is ridiculous! Each to their own and those children are free to believe that but they tried to push their thoughts on to the rest of the children in the class yesterday.
I actually think Jesus would have thought it was fun too ;) i think he would have been first in line to see if he was feeling passionate by seeing if the fish would flip over in the palm of his hand ;) Because Jesus had a sense of humour for gawds sake ;)

Tonights craft
Blowing eggs is NOT easy.......now I know why Martha recommends her little gadget thing for getting the egg out of the shell! It took me about an hour to get the damn egg yolk out of the damn shell!
So I glittered the flowers on this egg shell - isn't it pretty?????? :) Martha made these with Conan someone on her show this morning. Lloyd was chopping up fallen trees today and found this bird nest. He brought it in for me and it's perfect for my Easter display and my pretty egg :) Yes my EGG singular! Because to be honest I can't be bothered to blow any more eggs!
Chuck E Cheese
Yesterday I had my first experience of Chuck E Cheese. We took Sam and Abby there for lunch. It was ok....the children had fun. They had pizza and Lloyd and I had salad which was quite nice. The kids had a blast winning tickets. I had great fun getting addicted to Wheel of Fortune. And loved playing basketball :) We all hid from Chuck E Cheese when he walked round (the kids have inherited my hatred of people dressed up in freaky costumes (although for some reason it's different at Disney - why IS that??????)
I don't think we will hurry back.....it was a complete waste of money lol.....but we had a great time and the kids had fun. I'd rather go to Lets PLay though because at least they get some exercise there - they have all the tubes and slides and everything there as well as the machines to play on - where as at Chuck E Cheese it's just the machines which seems a bit pointless......it seems to end up costing the same....
I certainly wouldn't bother going with the older children - I think they're far too old for Chuck E Cheese - they'd be bored stiff.
We can at least say we've been though....and it was fun....
tonights bedtime reading
My new issue of Homeschooling Horizons magazine arrived today :) I love this magazine! They will send you a free issue if you go tot he website! It's a fab magazine even if your kids are in school - full of great ideas for projects, activities, books, games........rainy day ideas.....things to do during the holidays :)
I'm still kind of interested in doing the frog in the jar experiment - as gross as it is (you put a frog in a jar with ants and they eat the frog and you end up with a PERFECT frog skeleton - yes gross and cruel but kind of cool too......)
Sorry that is sooooo NOT me......but sounds kind of interesting.....
Anyway this magazine is REALLY great - written by Canadian Homeschoolers for Canadian homeschoolers!
Nice mail day :)

Fresh scent..............
MMMmmmmmmm yummy NOT!!!!!!!! :( lol!
Last night just before bed a familiar scent came through the kitchen window....a skunk had sprayed just outside the window!!!!! Charming!!!!!!!
Luckily the dogs were inside! We shut all the windows and Lloyd got his big torch and went outside to check to see what was around - couldn't find anything.
Chris came home from basketball around 10pm and went out to check on Charlie and give her a last drink etc and she was fine - the smell was going by then and we have no idea what the skunk had sprayed....something had obviously upset it though.
The smell doesn't bother Lloyd but it makes me want to throw up!
Normally we only smell it on the highway when a skunk has been squashed by a car.....but this was just outside the house :( Eeeeeeeew :(

Bee Movie...a transexual with a disability.
Danica asked me if I liked Bee movie.
I do like Bee Movie. Sam LOVES the movie! He's watched it a few times in the last week :)
It's a VERY inaccurate movie though - where bees are concerned! It's actually a movie about a transsexual bee with a disability! For a start male bees don't have stingers or pollen pockets ;) So Barry has actually had a sex change operation ;) He is also missing two legs - and that never gets mentioned does it?
Also male bees don't work in the hive - they don't make the honey and they don't collect the pollen and nectar - thats all down to the women (how typical is that?) Basically the bee colony is all about a Queen bee who acts like a single Mom to thousands of female worker bees - they do everything - they all take turns to pamper the Queen, feed her the royal jelly, make the honey to feed everyone, keep the hive clean, go out and collect the pollen and nectar , cap the cells, building the combs, feed the larvae etc etc (a womans work is never done sigh - although they do take regular rests)
Male bees are the drones and their job is to go out and have sex with virgin queens. They are mainly born in Spring and summer.
So as cute a movie as Bee Movie is, and as important as it is that we all know about bees and how vital they are to the environment and to life itself....I think it's a shame that they changed quite so many important facts about bees (and insects in general - I mean isn't one basic fact about insects that ALL kids need to know - that they have 6 legs????????
I don't know......I guess to me its just that part of the story is about Adams stinger falling off and being replaced by a sandwich plastic sword....but really he shouldn't have even had a stinger!!!
Ok my 15 year old is now telling me I take things too literally......and he wants to work in the movies so I guess he knows best ;)

Dead Bison
Today we spent a few hours at the Royal Alberta Museum. I love that place! Sam and Abigails favourite gallery was the Aboriginal Displays. Sam spent ages looking at a display showing how Native Canadians killed Bison and used all the different parts of the bison. They had speared the bison and there was blood coming from the bison's nose. Sam had so many questions and kept going back for another look and took Abigail back to point things out.
We moved on to a display showing Native Canadian Women fishing in a river and cooking the fish - feeding parts of the fish to their dogs...
Last night we watched Little People Big World. The Native American community of Oregon had built a plank house on the Roloff Farm and had held a ceremony to bless the house for the Roloff's...they had worn their amazing costumes for the ceremony and I had explained to Abigail that we would see costumes like those at the museum - I told her about a costume belonging to someone named 'Stabbed By Mistake' and how his costume was at the museum - so today we went to find his costume and Abby had her picture taken by it - you can see that above.
Jennifer!!!!!
I saw this turkey vulture and thought of you :)
Actually I saw it and thought about pretending that I took this picture of it sat on our workshop roof...but I thought maybe you'd figure out that I was lying by the fact that there is writing on the wall behind it ;)
So ok.....it's a stuffed turkey vulture......and I was just trying to impress you :)
