other lives

as always, the weekend flew by and now, before i know it - i am back at work. but the up side is it's a short week because my sister is getting married tomorrow (yay!) and we're headed out of town for a day of wedding related festivities. as for the weekend, it was full of some pretty fun stuff and thankfully, also full of some really good sleep. 

i headed over to robyn's house to spend some quality time with her and little miss sofia friday night and was treated to an fantastic tilapia dinner. dinner just always tastes better when someone else makes it am i right? around 9:30 i bundled up and headed to The Woodshed, the studio the band have been recording in all week to pitch in my voice for the back round vocals. 4 hours, 100 takes, 3 tall Creemore tall cans and an unnecessary pork gyro later and i was back in bed. saturday i ventured out to bowmanville to spend the evening with two of the loveliest ladies i know, not to mention one of the cutest babies and best husbands ever! unfortunately there was a tiny little baby mouse who did not live long enough to tell the tale but i am in the market for some humane mouse traps so if you know where i can get those, please let me know! RIP Squeaky. 


sunday i headed home with the sole intention of eating, lounging and some serious kitten snuggle time. they have been alone all week during the days and most of the evenings and i was really starting to feel like a deadbeat mom there for a while. each of us on our own couch had one of the girls firmly planted on our stomachs for pretty much the whole day. i am sure they couldn't believe we were home for such an incredibly long stretch at once.


little bernie seems 100% back to her old self which is great news since that was stressing us out the most for about two weeks. i really do think she was super depressed because her sparkly ball was under the fridge, although i haven't seen her show any interest in it for a few days now. tricky little buggers.

tonight i start to train for an 8k race on saturday morning. usually i have such better focus than this. i should have started a good month ago when i signed up but things always seems to be happening and i am easily lured away. but this week is working, running, sleeping in that order repeat repeat repeat.

the up side, as always, is a dirty bog breakfast at the Senator directly after the race. but first, i gotta earn it. wish me luck!

oh and if you get a chance, give this a listen. my buddy just came back from Iceland with about 15 new music recos for me and these guys were top of the list. a bit slow, maybe even sad but i guess he knows me well enough to know, that's exactly what this girl is in to.
