Hi everyone...is there anyone?? :)
I am lazing around on this cloudy, yet useful, Sunday in Victoria. It's the middle of my Spring Break (I'm spoiled to get two weeks!) and Emily is off on her amazing band trip to Phoenix. This means that:
a) I have no Emily to play with.
b) I have no driving around to do.
c) I have no Emily to play with.
So, here I am at the computer (and hers) -- de-bugging, de-fragging and all kinds of de-stuff. I'm also doing de-laundry (LOL) and will be making de-dinner soon (okay, it's not funny anymore!). Sue and I took Felix for a nice long walk over to Elk Lake park today -- so I'm quite pooped! I'm enjoying a cup of tea and a break before the next bought of laundry (kind of like bouts of the flu...) has to go into the dryer. Well, the laundry is actually bed linens, which also means I have to make all the beds after I'm done. Will it never end!!!???
Sue and I watched I Clavdivs through the week and over the weekend. We have them on DVD. What a great series it is! So many great actors and over the top performances. Great stuff!
On Friday, Meg and Trav called and asked me to join them for dinner at San Remo (a kind of Greek-ey, Italian-y place on Quadra and Hillside - not far from their apartment). I was so pleased, cause we'd missed out on our Lost/ANTM watching on Wednesday. However, I must admit I wasn't so very pleased to be totally skunked at cards!! Sheesh. The only hand I had a chance of winning was swept off the table by Meg when dinner came. I mean, really!! Let's get our priorities in order, Missy!
Emily gave me leave to put her room into some kind of order so that if Bim wants to use it next week, she'll be able to move around without killing herself. Actually, it wasn't that bad!! Emily keeps her room SO much tidier than Brig and I did ours when we were her age. Yikes! Actually, now that I come to think of it, I was living in Vancouver in the flat when I was Em's age. Mo was quite picky about our room, so it was pretty clean. When you have five of you living in a one bedroom apartment, you have to be tidy or go mad!! (Especially if you live with Sue, the queen of the poison pen letters!!! Sue, just joking in case you're reading this....)
Well, I'd best go get the laundry moving. And it's almost time to start dinner, too.
Hope you all have a wonderful week!
Love,
Pen
