Canadian Invasion!

[dodger_sister]

So, The Canadian Brother and Co. will be here some time tomorrow (Friday) afternoon. On the one hand, I am excited to see the kids and to catch up with him and the wife but on the other hand, it takes a lot out of me to have that many people up in my space, disrupting my schedule and demanding my attention 24/7 (like I don’t even get a chance to

You're a teasing tease who teases

LOL Yes, I am. ;) Though this does remind me I owe you all a therapy story!

...and congrats to your sis!

Thank you! She starts the new job on Tuesday.

Have an awesome visit, hon - and maybe put a lock on that bathroom door for your morning moment! :)

Congrats to the sister, and I'll see you next week. I'll also try to think of some fun fics for you - but I have to say, het_reccers often has good stuff. Just to tide you over, maybe?

The living room is in perfect view for the walk from my bedroom to the bathroom. The kids would catch sight of me and immediately want me! It's probably just because I am such a cool aunt though. Things went decidely better this time around - my broher did not bug me every single second and I think maybe me having a seizure the last time he was in town made him think a little about my energy level.

Thank you for my sister!! She came in yesterday from her last day at the crappy job and started shouting, "I'm free! I'm free!" She starts the new job on Tuesday.

I ended up reading this Fallen!Cas verse that sucked me in enough that now I have to finish it! It was full of the angsty unrequited feels that I enjoy.

I have never heard of het_reccers though, so I tagged it for future het-needs.

het_reccers has ALL of the DARCY/BRUCE (and Darcy/everyone) fics listed near the top right now. GO READ! :D

Also, today was my LASY DAY AT WORK. Until June 18-19 when I have stupid training. Bleargh.

[dodger_sister]

Darcy/Bruce? Really? That thought had never crossed my mind - but now that you mention it, it seems almost perfect!

WHOO-HOO for Summer Vacation!!!

I hope the fam visting goes okay and you get a chance to breath while they are around.

Congradulations to your sister and have a great birthday!!!

[dodger_sister]

The family visit was not as overwhelming as visits past, but by the day before they left I was ready to get my house back. :)

Thank you! I am super excited for my sister - this job is perfect for her.

Birthday dinner tomorrow night - I may even wear a dress!

[lizibabes]

I'm glad it was an easier visit, but yeah, must be nice to have your own space back.

I went through years of hating dresses, but now I love them, give me an exscuse to dress up and I will, mainly because I look 12 when I dress casual. I hope you have a wonderful meal

I went through years of hating dresses, but now I love them, give me an exscuse to dress up and I will, mainly because I look 12 when I dress casual.

Omg, are you me? That is exactly me too! When I was a teen, I always said the only time I would ever wear a dress would be if my sister got married and wanted me to be in the wedding party. And everyone was like, "What about your own wedding?" and I always said, "Nope."

But then I had a friend who wore the same size as me and we started shopping together and she dressed very nice but like a grown woman and not a teenage boy like I did, so suddenly my style started to mature. Now I lament how there aren't enough occassions to wear dresses and I have all these ones hanging in my closet that I never get to wear!

I look like I am about 14 when I dress casual. I am 34 and I have kids who are like 19/20 asking me what school I go to!

[shirebound]

Woooo, please give your sister congrats from me!

[dodger_sister]

My sister says to tell you 'thank you'. She was all smiles yesterday when she got home from her last day at her old job. They have already given her an schedule for her first week on the new job and she gets to go into the field as early as Thursday!

[ranua]

remember to take a breath every now and again while the family is visiting! lol Hope the visit is a lovely time for all of you.

That is wonderful news for your sister! Congratulations!!!

[dodger_sister]

The family visit went well - I kept sneaking away to read my Buffy book whenever the kids were eating or bathing. It also helped that the baby isn't so little anymore - they went to visit people instead of having people come to our house. Plus, the kids are at those ages where they have little budding personalities - it is too cute!

Thank you! I am super psyched for my sister! This job is like everything she loves to do and finally she might be doing something that challenges her.
