Friday Fill-ins, Happy Father's Day Weekend Dads!!

1. One of my favorite birthday presents was __a telephone when I was 12. I really really really wanted it, and YAY! I got it for my own bedroom___.

2. __I went to the store didn't get my strawberries, because the man was putting them away at 9pm. If I can't see them? I can't buy them___, it was as simple as that. (pssssssst that's for you Atlantic Superstore! I'll buy them at Sobeys, Thanks Sobeys for restocking your shelves this week vs unstocking)

3. The moon ___last night was beautiful it was so pretty to see shining through all the spring/ish full leafy trees__.

4. _My summer plans____ includes _a lot of unplanned flying by the seat of my pants plans____.

5. I was tempted by _turning around today, I had started walking with a friend, and she had to go rescue her sick girlie from school. I kept her youngest with me so she'd have to come back and after some tea and coffee, and maybe a Timbit (shhh! for the kids) we went again. Off we went with 1 large Dog, one sick almost 12yrold, one 5yrold and one 3yrold and a wagon. We are determined. Summer mornings are much better after a walk. I do hope the cool morning trend will last for most of the summer. I did not see the bear yet. (tip toes, hide the picnic baskets)____.

6. _Trying new foods, going to the Beach, Grilling, walking through the cool wooded paths in the local parks___ are some of the things I like to do on vacation.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to _my almost12yrold getting better, it's been a long week of fever and chills and and empty belly. He's perking up though, next trick ice cream laced with antibiotics,shhhh!____, tomorrow my plans include __Rainy Saturday according to the forecast so I'll try to get some of the basement tidied, and some Avon brochures Sorted,___ and Sunday, I want to __Spend Father's Day with my hubbie and calling My Dad and FIL! Happy Father's Day Weekend to all the Dads___!

Father's Day Meme! TAG!

Thursday Evening, I was sitting here all reading along and went over to visit Karen over at If I could Escape. (I know she understands me, she's got boys too!) She has started a Father's Day Meme and asked me to join along. I'm starting this typed up tonight but I'll get MJ's answer in the morning and update.

1. What does Daddy wear for work?  a jacket, glasses, that's it? oh Shoes, what kind of shoes? His Shoes.
2. Where does Daddy work?In the Orange Place
3. What’s Daddy’s job? WORK, Computers?
4. What does Daddy do at work?  computers
5. What does Daddy do at lunch?eat at work, what? Anything. (good point)

Hubbie works in IT, I call him my "personal IT guy" but really? he does a lot of everything for a lot of people with a Company here in town. I'm not sure just how much "info" I'm allowed to reveal. (snicker) He's that guy that everyone goes to when everything goes "crazy" and they say "Fix it" but he doesn't seem to get the gifts that I remember he used to get? Some of these guys did help put up our roof last Spring, so maybe that's the Thank You?

Now to pick 7 bloggers to do this meme?

Mary over at A Simple Twist of Faith
Bex over at Adventures of The Griggs Boys
Casey, over at Half as Good as You.

Happy Father Day

This morning we're all up trying to be VERY quiet so that Daddy can sleep in, it's the only thing he really wants for Father's Day every year. It doesn't work, it doesn't work for mother's day and it doesn't work for Father's Day.
They are currently trying to make cards, they made cards in school but this is the cards they make at home. They want to show Daddy he's special in their way. I want him to know he's special too.
It's our special Dad that would go out on a Saturday and pick up 1000lbs of play sand.And the following weekend he goes and gets a big load of dirt to put in a planter box for kids to plant cucumbers that he or they don't even like but he know it's good for them.
It's our special Dad that would take 1 or 2 of his boys with him when he can see that mommy is at the end of her rope or they are having a bad day.
It's our Special Dad that will volunteer in a room full of women to be on the Parent's Committee at the school because he wants to know what's going on in the school and find out exactly how he can help.
It's our special Dad that will drive a bit out of his way some days so that they an sleep in and get to school a bit later.
It's our special Dad that will teach his sons the joy of music as only even if it means blasting the tunes and cracking my foundation, cause you know it's for the kids! I apparently missed the Karaoke Moment in that one. The camera was buried in the laundry pile! oops

And to My special Dad, the man who let me ride in the back of a Pick up Box while he wenched it up off the back of his truck frame so that he could get it all greased up. I just now realized why we were inside the box? So he knew where we were! Because my boys who want to be everywhere Daddy is it works. My Brother and I were in the box, my dad was getting the truck work done. To the dad who took me shopping when my mom was tired of listening to "I don't like that" funny when your Dad helps you pick out clothes they look cooler? I guess it's all apart of being Daddy's Girl?

He does all these things for his boys! and I love it because he's doing it for my Boys, he's a very special man and a great Dad. Happy Father's Day and to all the Dad's. The Cards are now completed so it's time to work on the whispering and inside voices.
