Random Tuesday Thoughts.. I know I slack

I haven't been too posty mc posterson for the month of May, but it's Tuesday and what better reason to post some random can't fill up a page stuffs then Tuesday.
Thanks to Keely's Break and Stacy's Takeover it's still on the go.

Summer, yep it's feeling a Lot like summer. I know some of you were totally expecting me to post some of this all up until about August?







But it isn't it's more like this now...









Much better, much greener but now it's Much hotter too.  That hat there? It's Avon.  Just thought I'd mention that for any Canadian shoppers reading along...

We went to the Island 2weekends ago. The weather was a bit chilly but we got to see the grandparents and my Grandma, totally worth the drive.

We are trying to get the boys involved in some sports this year. TJ has picked Ultimate Frisbee, AJ and MJ have picked T-ball. I will be spending some time at the fields.

With this great weather, I've been hiding on my porch swing too. Love it! a space to read, some fresh air and some people watching. No one thinks to look into my corner but I can see and hear them as they walk by.

Ok bus is here.  Only 3 ish weeks of school left here.  The boys go back after labour Day again this year.  (not that I'm thinking about sending them back yet...)

Oh my ice cream is cold on teeth. Also it's Tuesday and no Dentist visits today.

Well if you're here from Julie's place at momspective, this blog is not near the same, but thanks for visiting.

Now to get a badge... off to stacy's



Stacy




Happy RTT everyone. :)

BTW I don't need wine today to feel the world spin. I think I've got an ear infection? not easy to get the groceries when you are having a hard time keeping the aisles from spinning. I think this calls for a nap.

I'm Randomizing Today,because it's RTT!


Stacy

I got my Stacy and sign, I've got my thoughts, now to put it all together... hang on...

must Read Julie and Stacy first... reading... (here have a baby carrot while you wait)

You saw my spring yesterday right? it's not much better today. The only improvement is that my tulips are almost all in bloom and wont fizzle out quick because of being over heated...

May long weekend is on the way. Victoria Day. I had a discussion on my FB wall. It was very interesting, in the morning the local Radio Show Announced May 2-4 weekend was coming. Now I never really  heard that term as a standard us. I've heard it on Beer commercials (you know a 2-4 of Beer)... beers for the easterners.  This was new to me. I asked if it was a local province thing, or a Canadian term.It's apparently used a lot in Ontario? I lived there so it must have been after 98? I also spent some time in NH where the May long is Memorial Day weekend.  So I think we're going to go for the 2-4 idea this weekend.

Last weekend we were invited to a Birthday party for a friend who turned 40. It was a great time, there were I think 13-15kids and about 12 adults?  It poured rain but it was just enough of a mist to still BBQ. I was most impressed that there were NO bags of chips/pretzels or other picky treats. Everyone had BBQ hots and Hams and there were LOTS Of salads. My next party? thats what I'm doing Salads!

Quote of wife "Happy Birthday you little Stinker!" 
The Cake? I thought this was genius. She tried hard to get her hands on some of those Birthday Skunks for the front yard, (you know because out here in the sticks we don't have enough real ones tearing up our lawns) but couldn't find them locally. Hubbie took this pic, note that's his finger, new iphone he's still learning.


Which means it's time for me to get a phone right?

Sunscreen Season, Avon has Sun Screen and also blackfly season. I LOVE my screened porch but now it's time to stock up on the Skinsosoft too!


Ever notice UGH? is just a HUG in a bad mood?

Coming to Canada

I thought since my friend and writer of
Tales From the Village
is coming to Canada, in 9days for a visit? I should warn her of the weather/seasonal uh confusion here. This is my side of Canada, May 16th at 8am... 
        I don't dare show her the ground, leaves on a birch,

The maples in front, note the extensive use of "ever greens" for GREEN ness?
