I'm having a very good day--nothing in particular has happened but I am just in a good mood! :) Feelin' Good! This eating right thing is addictive! I feel great :) Pounds are starting to come off as well so that keeps the ball rolling too! :)

Yesterday my parents came over to the house and while me and Ty were at work, checked off a few things on our never ending to-do list! The house is looking great and I'm very excited for Saturday to finally share it with our friends and family:)

Since it's our first dinner party thing in our new home, I've decided to try some new appetizer recipes :) No frozen/store bought things. So hopefully they turn out good!! I think I have about 4 or 5 recipes on the go right now--I started the fillings, etc for them all last night and the kitchen was smelling mighty fine and nothing has even started cooking yet! lol

Tonight I have to make homemade wonton wrappers since I can't find them in the grocery store pre-made and make the homemade icing for the cake I have to bake for one of Ty's paintball buddies birthdays. I'm going to put their paintball name logo on the cake :)

Last night after all this was done and my parents had gone home, Tyler had already eaten some soup and went to bed so I just followed suit. No wonder I was so hungry this morning! I hate forgetting to plan for dinner and not having the time or energy to cook anything! So I had a peach and went to bed! Oops:(

I had a fantastic sleep and had so much time to fiddle around doing things before work this morning! :) So--it's a good day! Things are a good pace at work, I have quiet time to get things done and people are in a generally good mood all around me! yay :)

Happy Hump Day to you all! :)

    I looked in the frozen section where they usually are but there were none at my Independent (I live in Embrun now so that probably explains it lol.
    Yum! They sound tasty :) I refuse to spend anymore $ on this party but next party I will use those for sure mmm! Thanks ! :)

Life Lately

-Hosting Bearbrook Ladies night two weekends ago was wonderful! I put out a full charcuterie spread, made a mint/cranberry/grapefruit drink to share, and all of us received a tarot card reading, palm read and a facial read. Pretty much the reoccurring consensus between all three reads (it was two different people doing it) was that my heart and mind live in a state of conflict, but that it works for me to live in a state of balance. I deal mostly with logic and facts, and less with emotions; they think I would be good as an analyst (weird, since this is pretty well my role at work), and with numbers (which I also do all day at work lol). I'm stubborn and loyal and do not have a mean streak. That I am the same person at home as I am in social settings...blah blah blah. It was interesting! -Last weekend, we went out to Tyler's Disco Inferno show to celebrate our friend Jami and Donna's birthdays. We danced away (one of Keira's ECE's from daycare came out too!) and i...

-Garett went on his first friend play date ever , and he had so much fun. It was his two best friends that left daycare to start school last year. -happy that while Garett was at his play date, Tyler was home with Keira and I went out for a bit alone, then came home and we finished The Belko Experiment movie before I went to get him. (He was there for two hours) -sad that this week, Garett only has four days left at daycare :( Friday is Keira's first day, while I keep g home with me. Can't believe it's already almost school time!! -as a "goodbye" gift from g, we bought his daycare provider a necklace from peoples that is a heart with some Garnet stones in it (Garett's birthstone), to remember him by, and I ordered an Aukey essential oils diffuser , a doTERRA starter kit and an essential oils mixing guide recipe book thing. Hopefully she likes it. -Keira adapted SO well to putting herself down for her nap. She's down to one a day, and I just give...

Friday fun!

Thank God it's Friday, and that this week is O-V-E-R!!! -It was a stressful week at home. Looking forward to a fun weekend! -I am being audited for child care expenses in 2018--I'm not the only one that thinks we pay too much money in child care! LOL...I submitted my receipts online (they are catching up with the times and it's great!) and turns out I actually underclaimed by a few hundred dollars haha. -Tonight is calm, just hanging at home with the kids. -Saturday I have an eyelash appointment at 2:00, and then we have a sitter coming at 6:00 so we can go to a Wine & Cheese night up the road at our friends house. -Sunday is a day of rest until the evening when Shan comes over and we head into town to go to the Trailer Park Boys Christmas at the NAC (I bought Tyler and I tickets as an early Christmas gift). We are sitting pretty close, so I hope we don't get any of their nasty sweat on us lol -Monday I am off since the TPB thing only starts at 8PM, I didn...
