Oh so happy

Tonight I'm grateful it's 1957 and I'm cleaning not just starting a night shift. I'm grateful 2 out of 4 gulped down supper. I'm happy with three night shifts and one work dinner at the pub i feel human! I suppose I would not have such an appreciation for day shifts had I not worked the nights. I miss my night shift nurse pals lots :) they know way too much about me!! Lol like how I snore on the keyboard or get hot blanket face burns from crashing on the ... Wait for it keyboard:) oh and I become highly inappropriate at 0230 :) I learned to love Pinterest and popcorn :) and I have never laughed so much while the rest of the world slept. I'm happy right now and I'm happy I'm happy :) life sometimes draws things objects people and opportunities towards us and my solar system is looking grand ... On the subject of solar systems I may or may not have gone overboard with Ty's ideas :) as I type this Louis is licking
poor duckies ear wound and the kids are snuggled up watching a movie... It's a great night! And the last two pics are my kids moments when I started nursing school it seems like an eternity and such a journey ... So happy

Schucklenuts and buttercups

I have no clue what the first word in my title means :) it's just another concoction I whipped up for my own enjoyment! Maybe watching fraggle rock made me do it.
So happy Becky and Ryan came to visit! Here's a story for u... My dad and Becky's dad went to vet school together 30 years ago our mums were friends. Her parents gave my parents our first cat tickey... Becky's mum held me when I was born at my baby shower... Fast forward 26 years later... Becky's a receptionist at a hair salon I'm a hairdresser we meet hit it off become besties instantly and realize the connection!!! Her parents live two blocks from me and we've technically known each other since the womb!
Now she's married to Ryan ( I introduced them yes I am awesome ;) ) and they are dear buds!!!

5 years and counting!

Our day started off uber planned so naturally the cats wound abscessed and required immediate veterinarian aid! Naturally! Oh but the 400 something bucks was not natural at all.... So breakfast, presents, then balloon pick up, cat to vet, cat to surgery, home for lunch, bowling, pick up drugged cat with a cone head, dinner at Boston pizza with my parents. During dinner we were graced with a magician who the kids loved a huge group of guys (18 of them) joined in singing happy birthday with the servers ! Kids loved it! Then home for cupcake candle blowout! Give cat antibiotics and crash! Due to the whole 1 parent four kids we don't go on holidays really so I try to make the Bdays extra saucy ;)

I was going to reminisce but alas I'm in a cynical snarky pants mood tossed with some pessimism. So instead it was a great day which was in contrast to the extra stress I have no control over that hit me like a tsunami over the past two weeks!!!

Today we hit Hemer park with my pal Noreen:) she claims she rescued me from the lake when I jumped in lol this did not happen :)

Tomorrow is BC family day and were off to Cathedral Grove up island to see some huge trees :)

Toodiloo

5 years!!!

When we wake up tomorrow it will have been 5 years since Ty Rylie and myself welcomed Oliver and Olivia into our lives.... I get pretty emotional about that timeframe of my life... Will post out adventures tomorrow :)
