Friday Fill-Ins: Details and Coffee

Today is Friday Fill-ins day! It is sunny and warm today. The kids were up half the night. I let them sleep this morning. There was no point in fighting to get them up for Preschool at 7:30am when they just went back to sleep at 5:00am. I am tired. It will be a play in the backyard, lounging around kind of day.

Tomorrow I am off to a First Aid course. It is all day Saturday and all day Sunday. I will be completely exhausted by the time it is done. Oh well. I get to do something without my kids. I am looking forward to that aspect.

Aidan's Kindergarten Orientation went fine. There seems to be a lot of boys over girls in his class. It is fairly small, though, at about 16 or so. That is a good number. Aidan is excited to be starting.

I hope everyone has a good weekend.

Here's my answers:



1. Moving forward. Always moving forward!

2. I have been set free. (Thanks be to God!)

3. My best quality is my caring personality and my wonderful singing voice. (Okay that is two!!)

4. I love to pay attention to the details.

5. In nearly 10 years, I will be raising two teenagers. That is scary!! HELP!!

6. More sleep and coffee is what I need right now!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to hanging out with my husband and getting more sleep, tomorrow my plans include spending all day at a First Aid course and then perhaps going to church and Sunday, I want to have a restful time at the BBQ my small group is having after my First Aid course is done (and I passed)!

Tuesday Tunes & Checkin' In!!

The sun is shining today! It is supposed to be warm enough to go outside today. I am so excited!! I still have laundry to finish, so we won't be going too far, but we'll see.

Tonight is Aidan's Kindergarten Orientation meeting. He gets to come with us. He is really excited about meeting his teacher and his other classmates. I hope that he does well and that he and his peers get along.

I feel like Kindergarten is the beginning of the end. I mean, he has been under our influence for at least 90% of the time so far. Once he is in school, our influence is still important, but it is way less. I better make sure to make the most of our time together!!

Hopefully I will get to do some reading today. I love reading!

This weekend I am doing a First Aid course. All weekend. 9-5 each day. I will be tired by Monday!

Well, I hear both kids stirring. Just wanted to write a little bit and let you know how my life is going. I hope you will all be having a lovely day today whatever you are doing!

Here's a late Tuesday Tunes!! Love this song!

Manic Monday: Happy Victoria Day!

Happy Victoria Day to all my Canadian friends!

Off to work a Casino in an hour or so. Really need to have a shower and some breakfast. So, without furthur ado here's today's Manic Monday post! Enjoy!!


If you could completely redecorate any room in your house at no expense to you, what room would you choose?
Our bathroom. It is old and outdated and needs a whole new makeover. The ceiling paint is pealing off and the shower doors and bath tub are disgusting!!

Which hour of the day do you feel goes the slowest?
The hour right before the kids go to bed for the night. It seems to drag on and the kids are just looking for something to do.

If your birthday could be in a different month of the year, when would you have it?
Any month would be better than December and four days before Christmas. I don't care. Perhaps the summer...
