Random Tuesday on the Fly

So happy belated Canada Day, how did you spend it? Did you celebrate even if you were in the USA? no? Ok well Happy Belated 4th of July? How did you spend that one? no didn't? you were in Canada? ah I see...

So on with the Random...




Come on join the Rebellion. The unmom is still on a break. (anyone else notice just how long this Break is going on?) Stacy of course has it covered.

Julie is also in on the rebellion, She's working and blogging. SEEEEEE Keely? hehe


I'm next. I have to find me some work. Anyone got a job they want to hand me? Or buy more AvON? hint hint. Today is order day for me.


Today the boys are playing with the camera. I have some Canada Day pics and some 4th of July pics on my Camera, but someone (not the kids or me) Drained the battery. Oh it also wasn't the cat that did it...


Friday we Celebrated, we went out to a midway, got some midway food, and I think I actually saw a girl I used to work with in Ottawa. It took me about 4hours to remember where I knew her from.

The Midway was a mix of Fun and interesting. I enjoyed the people watching. The kids enjoyed the rides. I didn't get on any. I saw how they were put together.

My flower gardens are coming up Fabulous this year. I did some selective cutting back this year. I took out the Edge Hog and Zipped and Zapped down those spots that weren't quite as nice last year. I also put some boys to work this spring removing the dead from last year. Wow the difference.

The food of the weekend? was a bit overboard. There was a Cheesecake involved. I had to mention that because Julie says she's never had Cheese cake. This one of those "easy" recipes that I have been making since I was 12.

1 1/2 cup Graham Crumbs,
1/4 cup icing sugar
1/4 cup melted Butter/margerine. SMoosh it down after it's all mixed and wet into the pan, this is your crust (9X13pan)

next step Mix up Dream Whip with the blender, 1 package,
1 8oz pack of cream cheese,
1/2cup icing sugar (you can use less if you want it less sweet)

Whip all that together.

Top layer, Can of Cherry Pie Filling spread all out. Done~ put it in the fridge with foil cover until you need it. I usually make it 8-12ish hours in advance. Oh also Don't forget to grease the pan. I forgot this, it was a bit hard to lift out.


Oh and we also did fireworks Friday night. We drove to another town to see theirs, and saw our town's 12minute version on the way home.



Sunday we hit the beach for the first time this season. Great weather and I mostly did the people watching, snack wrangling and holding down of the blanket. The kids and Hubbie got in the River. (yeah cold) My ankles were the early warning sign to stay out of the water. All boys survived. YAY!! also Locals? Stop swearing and smoking around kids. It's not healthy for anyone. And your vulgar rendition of "Oh Lord it's hard to Be Humble..." was plain stupid. Also Alcohol not allowed on the beach. It says on the sign. Why must everyone think the rules are for everyone else?

Monday... work as usual. We did light up some Sparklers last night for the older boys benefit. They are my American Made children.

RTT last Tuesday of the School Year, Yep I'm the Avon Lady

Where oh where did this school year go? Today is the "picnic with your kids" day. The teachers invite the parents to come to school and have lunch with their kids. There are a few ways of doing this. Some parents bring lunch from take out shops, or fast food, others like myself start baking and chopping up a storm so there is awesome homebaked, and health choices.


My oldest has a bike day, he's going out and biking the local trails with other Middle School kids, all Day today. I suspect he will come home sunburned. I forgot to send the sunscreen. You would think since I sell the stuffs? I could remember to pack it in the bag? no...

So as you see above there it's Random Tuesday Thoughts, and our Stacy is still going strong on the rebellion. click,write, link, it's all good.

Anyone interested in Being an Avon rep? need A few summer $ for you kids back to school supplies? yep I know they aren't even out yet and I'm talking about More $ for getting them back there.

Remember when summer was a vacation? yeah me too, this year? it's all about learning. I'm sending my oldest out for some lessons on himself, finding ways to help him learn better and better himself.
My middle son and babe (I know he's 6 but I want to call him baby, cause he's my baby!) Will be doing T-ball. They play tonight. I'll try to catch some pics tonight.

Oldest will be playing ultimate Frizbee? (I must go look up those rules, don't need it to turn into the WWE)

I baked some banana loaf this morning. I've been aiming to walk 5miles a day again. OMG I love it! I go in the mornings now when everyone is at school. I'll need a new plan once they are out next week. I will still try to get out before the days get hot.

There is a house I pass on my route. They have a tree. It looks like a baby Weeping Willow in a bucket. Well this tree? is sitting in the bucket on the lawn over the well? (I thought willows and water didn't mix? something about the roots being water chasers...?) The ground is all dug away around the well and there this tree sits in it's bucket. I've been walking with a friend and I said one day. "I see they are still in negotiations on who will put the tree in and maybe where?" There is another cleared spot in the yard to the right if we are walking up and left if we are walking down.. hehe  I said "wouldn't it be even funnier if the tree was moved everyday? It would make for some interesting stories while walking" (you've got to keep the walking conversation going or you'll never keep going right?) So She took that to mean "So if I come back tomorrow and see the tree moved, I'll know you were up here in the middle of the night moving the tree?"
This is where I walked faster, and whistled as I walk away...giggling.

Next Day? no I didn't move the tree, but it's now a running gag. "So now that our walk is done today what time did you want to go back and move the tree?" ....


and Monday  "So you really like the tree there better?" (Tree hasn't moved)

Some days the Random just happens all by itself.

Bear hasn't shown up yet.

How was all the Father's Day Sundays? I called my Dad, Canada Post is still on stike and now they are locked out. (insert over exaggerated Eye roll) I know you totally want to be Canadian This week after all I've told eh? <---- no I don't say eh as much as I do on the blog.

So you heard about the hockey too? yeah but they had Canadian players on their team... why yes I used to live closer to that team, maybe that's why?


Avon... great stuffs. This week? I woke up put in my avon earings, combed my hair with my avon bought brush, washed my face with my anew facial wash, brushed my teeth, made breakfasts and lunches, stored my leftover pepper in the Chefable (Avon) pepper container, got the boys off to school. Went walking wearing my curves pedometer, purchased from avon. (could have but didn't buy yet some curves sport wear or shoes) came home. Shower time. Avon Shampoo, Skin So Soft body wash and shave gel for the legs, all with the Avon Puff, washed my face again with the anew because the walking face was a bit sweaty. Dried off, put on my avon camisole, put on my SPF daycream on my face, moiturized  my elbow and knees with my avon Care cream. Add more Sunscreen and my Sun Hat...

After I was dressed more, I put on my avon super magnifying mascara,ultra luxury eye liner and perfect pink moisture seduction lipstick.

I stashed my mini make bag in my purse, put on my Avon Sterling Silver Love Believe Dream

And my Black Satin Avon Watch I have both but black suited the day. Love them. And off I went for the Day.




oh and I was wearing this too.  I love Selling Avon both to me and even you.

I know I totally self plugged myself. This is the most Plugging I think I've done since September. Message me I can send you a link to sign up or buy your own little splurges for yourself.


Tonight I'll top all this off with some Footworks Watermelon Scrub. My feet totally thank me for that little trick.

Has anyone noticed there are a LOT more spiders this year? I just hung out a load of clothes and killed 4 spiders on the line. Oh Crap! this probably means rain tomorrow....

Randome Tuesday Thoughts!

So it's  Tuesday. I know I'm not as actively lately. Go on Add your Random...
Keely has gone MIA? or didn't post today. I get it. I've been lax lately too. Get yourself a button and join in! meet some other Randomizers. 


I got a Direct Message today from Codie about his newest release. I want to share! So Randomly I chose today to share with you all.  It's the voice that keeps me listening.






So What else is Random this week, well it's not dentist Day, it's Eye Doctor Day. I guess Tuesday are just a bit easier to fit into the schedule for these things of things.


Boys are good, school is good. Chair is trying hard to untrap itself from the back yard. Snow is melting. Neighbourhood smells all Maple Syrup and Springy. I think a neighbour may have cut down a tree? and the sap is running? Or he tapped it? I was craving pancakes after bringing Mr 6 up from the bus stop.

Driving is easier, it will almost be time to take the snow tires off. YAY! Easter away isn't going to happen this year. I wont make it to the island this spring. :( Bummed! I haven't been there since August. It may sound like it's just another trip but to a Islander it's hard. We gravitate home like no other region I know of. The music, the food, the people, the beers, the kitchen parties, the meals, the laughs. You've seen the photos before it's beautiful there.

While here it's this... I see...

psstttttttt~ did someone say Spring?
