Love/Hate

Things I am loving:

- Tyler being home early
- My new parking spot at work (it's a truck sized spot and is SO close to the entrance and exit--no more going down three stories to park!)
- All the things coming up to look forward to
- That me and two girls from work are taking an actual lunch today and going to Target, going for lunch and to grab cupcakes for the office for V-day
- The morning Hot Tub on long drives into work
- Garett being so playful and smart
- Catching up on work after being off for 2 days
- My new (though temporary) hair do (I have to go back on March 11 for the second part)
- Writing in new notebooks/new office supplies
- New found love of socks




Things I am hating:
- How long it takes to lighten you hair when your hair is naturally darker--well...in a healthy way anyways. I could go lighter quickly, but it would take a long time at the salon and kill my hair.
- When it snows a bit and people freak out. The roads weren't even bad this morning, but it still took that extra 30 minutes because people are driving 20km/hr on the 417. (Get off the road!)
- Working. I love my job but the commute, the falling behind on housework and cooking dinner is really wearing. I love being home more so I can pay more attention to my family, have a spotless house and dinner ready for when everyone gets home. Come onnnnnnn stay at home mom status level!!! lol (also looking forward to the move into town in the next year or two--this will help).
- The cats. They are annoying me lately. We keep the gate at the top of the stairs closed at night now, because G can wander around at night if the mood strikes (which it hasn't yet--but I don't want to be in the news for a two year old roaming the streets), so they are constantly jumping over it (loudly), running around at night, jumping on us, and the other night we had an inch of water in the tub for g to splash in and forgot to drain it and Steve jumped in at 1am and I thought he was dying in there. He struggled to haul-butt over the edge to get out so Ty had to jump up and see if he needed actual saving (he was fine lol)...oh...and vacuuming every other day. That's annoying. I love them though :(

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...
