Frosty Friday

 We got the snow storm they predicted yesterday.  It was cool and snowy all day.  I went out to grab the garbage can after it was emptied and ended up on my backside.  Thankfully nothing hurts today but it was a good fall.  Hubs did a bunch of snow blowing and now it's snowing again as I write this so it seems like there will be more in his future.  

Both girls are having sleepovers this weekend.  Bug is going to a friends house tonight and Bear is having a friend over tomorrow night.  Should be chaos and tired children all weekend.  It's good for them though.

Not too much else happening today.  I've got  a town hall meeting at work and then a few more meetings to round out the day.

Thursday

 It's about to get snowy here today.  We are expecting 10-15cm over the next 24 hours and it's not going to be pretty.  They are already forecasting no travel advisories as the snow will be blowing like crazy as well.  We've got the snow blower batteries charged up and ready for later today.

Work has been keeping me busy as well.  There always seems to be something and really it's my own fault as I put it out into the universe that I needed a new project to keep me busy and I'm had no short supply since.

Easter is on it's way and I've got nothing for the girls yet.  I know they probably don't believe in the Easter Bunny any longer but I know they still want something to mark the day.  I'll need to hit up a few stores (or more likely Amazon) and get my butt in gear on this one.

Random Wednesday

 Today is the start of my random days of holidays.  i discovered I needed to take  bunch of time off before May 1st to use up holidays.  I'm starting with a half day today and then it will go from there.  I worked it out that between Monday and May 1st I'll only work 9 whole days.  The rest will be half or full days off.

Today with my afternoon off, I'm out to get turkeys and hams for the Annual Bingo put on by the parent council of the school.  That's coming up quick and we really need to get these sorted now to avoid missing out on them.  The school does have a freezer so we can keep them fresh (well frozen) until the bingo date.  I also have to get some stuff for the concession but that can wait until next week.  

Not too much else happening here today.  We got a call yesterday that Bear managed to get into swimming lessons off the waitlist so that's good.  She can complete level 6 and be on her way to being a better swimmer.  Bug is very excited for her lessons, she would live in the water if we let her I think.

Back to Driving!

 It took ten months and one day but I finally got my license back.  I've not had a seizure or any of my episodes since September and I'm very grateful for that.  It seems like the drugs are working and hopefully they keep it up.  I've just been so conscious that someone always had to take me somewhere that to be able to go on my own is a great relief.  

In other news here Bear has completed her year of Cheerleading and they capped it off with a second place win at Provincials.  The team was so excited and everyone was very please with the result.  Bug is almost done bowling for the year as well.  She's improved so much this year and has done really well.
