Wednesday

So what is happening in my life...LOTS! I am not prepared to talk about some of it just yet, but safe to say it is exciting!

I am VERY much liking the evenings and the brightness. I can't wait for the mornings to get bright. I start work at 6:30am and it is still dark then.

My work hours are going to change in July and I am NOT happy about it. However, it is not an option.

I don't know that we will ever go to China for Pumpkin. I don't even have a clue as to how many months it has been. Since Dolores stopped counting, I don't get a reminder any more!

BBQ season is in full swing - well, lets be honest, I BBQ all winter. Tonight's BBQ dinner was YUMMY!

I am still unsure about energy saving bulbs - they take so long to get bright.

I could probably live on popcorn.

My sister is doing the Ride to Conquer Cancer - you can sponsor her here if you are so inclined.

I like the colour blue.

My dry skinned hands are looking forward to the warmer weather.

Is there going to be any more snow??

I am VERY excited about what is happening in your life and wish there was a bigger font for the VERY!!!! Good things come to those who wait and to those who MAKE good things happen!!

I LOVE the longer days!

How will they change? What will be your new times?

The wait is ridiculous.

We haven't BBQ'd since last summer, but I'm sure J. will be buying some propane soon.

I don't know about them either.

Good for your sister!!

Blue is one of my favorites!

J. and I have been sharing a bag of popcorn as our evening snack and it's good. He says it's gross (it's the light, non-butter kind) but I think it's a great snack.

There was a snow storm in April a few years back...ugh.

My hands have never been as dry as they are now that I spend all day washing dishes, washing my hands from changing the twins' diapers, etc. It's awful!!

I too am very excited for the good things happening to you. Can't wait!

I need light in the mornings. I have a very hard time getting motivated without it.

What's going on with your work hours?

I don't think we (as in Shawn and I) will be going. I don't remember where we are either.

Shawn BBQ's all winter long. He loves his BBQ.

We have energy saving bulbs. They're not that bad. The newer ones light up pretty quickly.

I need flavoured popcorn. Plain won't do.

We sponsored her. I hope she does well!

Blue is a very nice colour.

I don't think you would like living here. You can feel the moisture leaving your skin as soon as you step off the plane.

I know we will get snow. Since we've moved here we had snow in April, May and June.

LOVE all the good stuff for you!

Why the hour changes? That suux!

I miss our BBQ!!

I can not stand those lights! They are not bright enough...

Popcorn...meh!

Blue is nice...but purple is better!

The snow better not reappear!

Keep smilin!

Glad to hear you have some excitement in your life!

We too are enjoying the lighter evenings, I can't wait until it is still light out at 9:00 pm.

Hoping your new work hours are only starting a bit later, and not working the afternoon 3-11 shift, that is the worst in my opinion - very hard to have a life outside work.

The time line sucks. I am sorry.

We don't BBQ a lot at home, but do when we are camping, almost every meal. Hoping to get out at the end of April if spring would every fully arrive around here.

I'm only so so on the popcorn. Fresh tortilla chips with homemade salsa and guacamole - yum!

NO.MORE.SNOW.PLEASE. We woke up to a winter wonderland last Sunday, after having +10c weather the past week. I didn't know if I was going to vomit or cry I was so upset. Luckily it all melted by the end of the afternoon.

Yay for your exciting news! Looking forward to celebrating with you.

Loving the longer days too!

Yuck for changing work hours. Why do they do that? Don't fix what's not broken!

Still praying that you'll go to China. I could count months for you. :o) SO hard I'm sure!!! (((hugs)))

Mmmm...BBQ!

Not crazy about those bulbs either and I don't seem to get the hours out of them either that they claim you're supposed to.

Popcorn? Oh baby - I could too! Unfortunately the butter and cheese flavour I put on mine doesn't help.

Yay for sis!

I couldn't believe it when I saw it snowing this morning. It's now officially April here. Bye, bye snow!
