By a thread.

I am still here. In case you care. You know that thing called life? Well, it's a pretty big thang and it seems to be getting a little bit in the way these days.

The weather? Is just so bloody gorgeous, how the hell can you not just wanna play outside till after 5 PM and then having to make quick-fix suppers like grilled cheese or pancakes? How can you not? Really.

Rainy day? Pshaw. Ideal for a field trip to Starbucks for expensive muffins and a half vanilla latte for moi followed by...one hour of so much fun in Toys R Us. We went with the intent to make our wish list for an upcoming birthday. We had so much fun. We have a very generous list to work from, and I am most proud that I didn't spend a cent. Do you know how easy it would've been for me to break the bank??

The Hubs? Since last Saturday, he's been to Mozambique and is currently in Uzbezikstan. We miss him deperately and hope he'll be home safely one of these days.

The time? Most of my extra time (Bwah ha ha!) has been spent with the children, creatively avoiding housework, doing our taxes (right up till deadline), spending way too much time picking paint colours for the basement, watching playoff hockey, doing crafts, as well as working on this little blog for this project which is so dear to my heart for many reasons.

The house? Kneefuckingdeep in dust.

The friend from university? Visiting this weekend!

The booze? Consumed.

The ripple chips and Helluva Good Dip? Consumed.

And now I need chocolate.

How was your week? Oh ya, I already know cause you actually make the time to post to your blogs and send emails. Me?

Not. So. Much.
