sanctuary

wendy and i went to the leslie spit last weekend. it's just about 10 minutes from our house, and this is the view.

heaven.

it's nice to know that we can get there easily, and in moments the shoulders can drop and we can be near water and nature, and can have such a break from the city.

hey jude productions (part 2)

my friend kate designed this. i think that i'm going to use the flowers, but i may use a typed font as opposed to handwritten....though she's got gorgeous handwriting. i think that whimsical essence is shown in the flowers...
thoughts?

the holly & the ivy

my countdown has already begun. i can't wait for christmas. only 29 more days of work, and then hopefully 2 weeks off. it'll depend if the rodeo play on new year's eve. right now, we're off, which means i'm off. hooray.
i'm already starting with the christmas decorations, and i'm making my christmas card list.
now i need to buy eggnog on the way home!

vivaldi

i'm sitting in our new office, listening to vivaldi, while wendy does report cards. she's working hard, and i'm sitting here in solidarity with her on a computer, but my typing is for pleasure, where she's about to pull her hair out.

what a nice weekend. we had friday dinner with judy, jeff & the kids. we went to the humane society (twice) and saw some cute babies. we went to dinner at our friend lorraine's, we saw matt mays, we had brunch with jeff, judy & the godkids, and i drove out to greg's farm to bring him into the city. basically we had a chance to see many friends, new and old, and we listened to some great music, and we enjoyed time in our new house.

not too shabby.

dogs and thunder

what a glorious day. the fog is blanketing the city. the rain is falling. it is beautiful.

No matter how old I get, and no matter how clearly I know better, I am a queen of procrastination. I can't help myself. If I can put something off for another day, hour, minute... I will. It is one of the qualities about myself that I need to put on a list to change since I drive my own self crazy.

hooray for hallowe'en

i love hallowe'en.

it has become a tradition to go to our godkids house, and be with our favourite little people.

here's a photo of Bobby and I. he looks adorable. there's also a photo of Wendy and Judy, and one with Gillian and all the loot.

we love those kids so much.
