On April 30, 2008 my hubby and I are taking off on our first ever European Road Trip!  Well, the first one with just the two of us.  No wait, three!  Bailey is coming too!  We will be gone for about 10 days and I will be celebrating my 33rd (GROAN) birthday somewhere along the way! Our end destination is …

I keep forgetting about the photo hunt lately, but there’s still a few hours left of this Saturday so I’m not too late. This is a photo of Seal Island Bridge in Cape Breton, taken from one of the viewpoints of Kelly’s Mountain. For me, it’s always the sign that I’m almost home.  Once we cross that bridge I know …

Ok, don’t worry I’m calmer than I was yesterday. I decided to take my NL frustration and use it constructively and finally finish my Life in NL page. I enjoyed making it actually, and was pretty surprised that my like list was almost as long as my don’t like list.Yesterday morning Xander went to “walk the dog” which meant “Escape …

Well I’m back in Holland.. have been jetlagged as hell and woke up this morning to about 5 blobs of cat puke around the house. LOVELY!! After being at my parent’s house where everything is soooo clean and sooo nice, I’m fucking disgusted coming back to this house. No matter what I do, there is cat hair everywhere.. no matter …

Who keeps a turkey as a pet? Does this seem like a weird question or are turkeys just a regular ol’ pet and nobody told me? Yesterday we went for a drive around Millville and through the country, while we were driving along we see this: These people had this massive turkey on their front step! Truly, the pics do …

Still in Canada.. still having an awesome time. Tuesday night we went to see the Lipizzaner Stallions and they were as beautiful as I remember them. It was strange because there were so many empty seats! I don’t know if they didn’t advertise it well or if I’m just so biased and in love with horses that I couldn’t imagine …

Well, nothing better than a good day of shopping to remind you how badly you need to diet! *groan* Yesterday me, mom and Xander went shopping at the Mayflower Mall and as much as I tried to convince myself that they are just making the sizes smaller.. I finally gave in and admitted that it was just my ass getting …

Yesterday was our 4th anniversary and it was such a great day. We got up and had a nice breakfast then we all hopped in the car and drove up to Baddeck. We just walked around and had a look in all the little craft/gift shops. Went for a drive around the bay. It was a nice sunny day but …

Today was awesome. It was the first day my mother was off work since we’ve been home and we went shopppinnnng! Xander got some new clothes, my mom got a really nice wine colored leather jacket and I got a digital camera! (Ok it’s Xander’s too but I’ll use it way more than he will!) It’s our anniversary tomorrow and …

Forgiveness is between them and God. It’s my job to arrange the meeting. That’s my favorite line from the movie I saw yesterday (Man on Fire). It’s what Denzel tells an old couple who’s apartment he barged into to use their window to shoot up a bunch of cars after they tell him something about forgiveness. I thought that was …

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!! Today is mother’s day and I got to spend it with my mother for the first time in years. We got up this morning and had a nice breakfast and watched Coronation Street, which she LOVES. I really must admit I liked it more than I imagined I would. In just that one show I found myself …
