Roobert is exactly like his Momma and “General” Jelly. They both love to lay on the picnic table and bathe in the sun. We’re going to have to be careful with him this summer. His naked black skin will burn easily.
Last week I presented to a group of parents to help them complete their PRO Grant applications ( so they can get money for their schools). The girls came with me as Momma was in Niagara Falls. A lady I work with, Lisa Kiriakopoulos, played…
We’re on our a way to Royal Botanical Gardens but I wanted to check out the garden before we left. It is fun to see the lilacs starting to bloom. It is especially neat to see the one just beside the backdoor blooming because we…
So here I am at a conference…. I am missing my girls and will miss a snuggle from Daddy tonight… but the view is delightful and the weather is hot. and my room…
This morning I stopped for my routine XL coffee and the ladies told me this was the absolute last XL cup for this run. I love the little message they wrote me – very fun!
I love the bed in my fairy house it looks so comfy and sweet. On the table in my fairy house their is some paper and a lead from a pencil I hung up a button that is green and a flower!⭐
Tanit and I pulled over by the Grand River today driving home to have a look at how high the water is. The rains have been really heavy over the past few days and have caused some serious flooding in the area – quite the…
A quiet moment on Easter Sunday as the girlies cozied up for some reading. Medea reads Junie B. Jones and the Barber Shop Guy while Tanit enjoys Pinocchio on her iPad.
Medea made a beautiful collection of goodies for the Easter Bunny: a lovely card, a bunny made from a toilet paper roll (very creative), a Canada pencil and a couple of notes.
It’s been a long haul over the past few days as I’ve been repairing the RAID-5 array in PhoenixRyzing following a series of short power failures. We definitely need a battery backup! Sigh! Promising as of right now – M: is resyncing.
Medea really enjoyed taking pictures with her iPad as she documented her day at the ROM. She was particularly engaged with the gem and crystal exhibit.
Medea and I were looking at some crystals that were formed from lava flows and this one jumped out at me. It’s called a Stibite-Ca. Don’t you think it looks like a deluxe baked potatoe? Medea checks out the information at the interactive station.
Medea reads the bios of the Ewart family (left to right: John Ewart, Jane Ewart – later Jane Mowat, wife of Oliver Mowat, former Premier of Ontario – and John’s wife, Jane). The portraits are oil on canvas and date to 1850.
Tanit is having a snack of carrots as we wait in Emergency for her to get a stitch to close the little gash under her chin. This is turning into a hard lesson for sitting on her bum.
This is always a classic way to find Roobert laying on the couch. I've never really understood how that is comfortable on the neck. I get a little sore just looking at him.
Today we are at the optometrist so that the girls can have their eyes tested. I had mine tested the other day and got my new glasses and Medea mentioned that she had done difficulty reading one of the signs.
Momma and the girls came home from visiting Gran and Grampia with a bunch of new pictures they took of Sophie (“Blackie”). It is amazing to see how big she has gotten and how she has changed from black to grey. Sure looks like a…
Our Christmas tradition that I grew up with as my Mom did before me. These snacks are inspired by my mom’s mom, Gloria…Gloria snacks. Tanit stuffing her face…
