Happy Easter.

So, I haven't blogged in quite a while, and yes I got the messages! I've been lazy and busy.

Last weekend Bob and I went for a day trip to London to visit my family. It was a nice day for a drive and great to see them. I didn't see everyone but we were only there for a couple of hours visiting. We stopped to pick up some camping supplies for Mich for her trip to BC in early May.

She's off to help conduct research (for her Grad lab at UWO,) on the Gulf Islands for 3 weeks then comes home for a couple of weeks, then off to New York City to help conduct research, (for her current Lab at Windsor,) at ... The Museum Of Natural History! Then she's home for a bit before she moves to London to start officially at UWO. (I don't want to talk about it!)

It's getting busy at work for the Victoria Day fireworks season and shows. I will be at the office 7 days a week soon and likely 10 hours a day, I will try to sneak in the odd blog.

Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday weekend with friends and family! Oh and a big thank you to Patty who picked up the huge stash of Easter candy for me! (Bob and Mich say thanks too!) xoxo

Easter Hoppenings... (yes, that was intentional!)

Well I awoke at 5:11am! Dang... don't know why, but it's now 8:40pm and I'm still going. At 5:12am I really wanted to start cooking but everyone was still in bed, no kidding? HELLO? 5:12am! So I turned to my trusty computer and played on line poker (for pretend money of course.) Got to love the machine, no time zones, no date lines, just people playing games. Now with all the snow lying on the ground I was tempted to go out and make snow bunnies and line them up on my stairs, but I fought that urge.

I started at 9am to get the bird in the oven and basically cooked all day. Patty, (radio reporter friend,) stopped by with a gift of Easter wine and candies and a lovely ceramic egg. I delivered all my bunny treats around the neighbourhood. Susan and Bob, (next door,) came for dinner and brought 2, not 1 but 2, pies! woo hoo...

Michie's friend Jenny Le, currently a UOW pre-med student came too as well as Matthew. A good time was had by all and I ate way , way too much! I may have had a tad too much Easeter wine too!

Happy Hippity Hoppity to all! (see how politically correct I am?)

ps... boy did I have to edit this post! I must have had waaaaaaay toooooo much Easter wine!
