The Wierd Sister

The wierd sister, that would be me :) quoting a little bit of Shakespeare as he refers to the 3 witches in Macbeth as the Wierd Sisters. I must say it's my favourite of his works.

Another day where I accomplished pretty much nothing at home. I took the boys to school, came home to check my email and Becky called to see where I'd gotten lost, turns out I forgot that I said I'd go over there this AM to watch kidlets again so she could run out and buy "Cars" on DVD as it came out today. Silly me! So..when Rhiannon woke up from her morning nap we toddled over there. I spent the afternoon burning DVD's for her which is no biggie. She fed us supper, I talked REALLY nice and she barbequed me some steak...my fave! Although now I have sore teeth from chewing that beef. Time to go and see a dentist I guess. Came home and put the boys to bed, received a phone call from a new friend of mine, Veronica. She hails from Illinois, INCREDIBLY nice woman. I'm truly glad she and I have met. She runs an ebay store (how I met her), she also has her own non ebay retail site, the link is in my list. I think if anyone is looking for quality infants clothing from Gymboree or Janie & Jack they should deal with her. I also spoke to my sister Sherry on MSN this morning and we are making tentative plans to have all the siblings together for Christmas. I am sure that this has not happened since Mom died, soooo about 21 years. We both agree that this is a long time overdue. I think it's kind of sad that my children will not and have not enjoyed the close relationship with their cousins that I did with mine. In todays hustle and bustle we seem to have forgotten about the import of family. I miss the closeness, although I DO have some of that with Becky, Ron and Jeana. We make each other crazy some times and there are times where I am sure that we ALL feel taken advantage of by each other, but we have the love that all families have and when the going gets tough, we circle the wagons! Things haven't been exactly easy for any of us of late, but we are doing the best we can and supporting each other, so that is a positive. I think I may actually get to get away next weekend. Becky has said she will keep the boys overnight Friday and I am going to be taking off to Edmonton with Colleen, Dorian and Rhiannon for the night. It's Coronet, and SCA event, will be my first non-camping major event so I am very much looking forward to it. I just wish my court dress were done, but it's not going to be, lol. Colleen is working on a dress for herself at the moment all done with ribbon embroidery, it sounds divine. At any rate I should toddle off to bed. Be Thou Blessed.
