I updated the surrogacy blog! Check it out - link to the right :)

Coffee and Chemistry

So this morning I was able to get out for a bit for a coffee with my friend Diane. It was so nice to be out and having grown up conversation! And she didn't even make me drive!(Diane is my driving instructor) We had a great talk, got all caught up and are making plans to go shopping next week.

And then the chemistry. My first unit came today. I nearly cried when I opened it, it looks so hard! I don't know how I will ever be able to do this. I committed to finishing King Lear this weekend(John's working so I can watch the movie in peace after the kids go to bed) and starting the chemistry either Sunday or Monday. Corbin has offered his Magic School Bus videos and books as resources for me if I need help. He is so sweet!

French Toast

This morning was my morning to sleep in. John and I try to take turns when he has days off, so we each get at least one day where the other gets up with the kids. I was excited! Even more so, when at 9:30 the kids came in to tell me I should get up because Daddy was making us all French Toast. Daddy is making us breakfast? Really? Now this is surprising because John is a man who can make sandwiches and that's about it. Regardless, the french toast was DELICIOUS, much appreciated and a super way to start a Sunday! :)

Math and Science

Wow! I am really amazed at the differences in admissions for colleges in Ontario. I was doing some research last night, trying to figure out where to apply to college, and it became apparent that my choices were much more limited than I first thought. Not that I am not smart enough, but at 28, I know enough to know that there is no way I would pass Calculus and Vectors now! I was never really great at math or science to begin with, but the realization that that will play a role in how I go about my post secondary education is a bit rattling. Because it's not scary enough to think about starting college at nearly 30. So, I will do what I need to to upgrade my transcript. Even if it means Chemistry. I shudder writing that. Here's to hoping that 10 years out of high school somehow made the math/science part of my brain kick into gear!

Ever Wish You Were Funny?

I know I do! I follow a few other blogs, not just ones of people I know, but a few complete strangers. And they are certifiably hilarious! I giggle every time I open a new post and am rarely disappointed. I wish I could be funny like that. So funny that complete strangers bookmarked my blog and came a checked it regularly to see if I had added any more of my delightful wit for them to enjoy. Yeah, cause that's ever gonna happen! I am fairly certain that posting about taking your kid to school, what you plan to bake and apologies for not posting enough don't qualify as even close to funny. Well, I should at least try, right? So I will begin my quest for a funny blog with one of Corbin's new favourite jokes. Hey, if it's funny to my four year old, it's funny enough for the internet!

"What kind of cheese is not yours?"
"Nacho cheese!"

Yeah, that's all I've got. I'll work on it!

For Colleen!

Just because I know some people (Colleen!) need an update! lol I don't have too much right now. The kids are good, Corbin goes back to school today. Hurray! I never thought I would be this excited, but he has been driving me nuts lately. I am waiting for the college to call me back so I can find out where exactly I should be in terms of getting my French Certification. I am hoping for at least Level 2 without having to write the assessment test. We are also having our real estate agent over this coming weekend to give us a quick breakdown on everything that needs to be done to sell our house. My SIL has expressed an interest in buying it, so that might be interesting to pursue.

Ok, Colleen, that's all I have! I promise to try to post more often!
