Thursday

Sam and Susannah are better now - luckily their stomach flu/ bug didn't last very long. 24hr thing was all it was and no one else in the house has picked it up so far YAY!!! Touch wood no one will I HOPE!!! We worked out that they picked up this bug in Kidz Quarterz on Sunday....they were the only two to really play in the indoor playground and less than 48 hours later both were ill. Seems to be the only thing connecting them both.

Last night Lloyd and I went out for date night. We headed backto A Taste of India. we've been there three or four times and ALWAYS had the same table - too funny! It's now known as our 'usual table' haha :) We had the buffet again because it's REALLY good - they didn't have my favourite dessert this time but they DID have the other dessert that I love which is just as good - Gulab Jamun!!! Mmmm which I had with their amazing creamy custard that they sprinkled with pistachio's. The beef Vindaloo was REALLY good - but over here they don't make Vindaloo hot like they do in the UK....it's so funny - I could never eat a Vindaloo back home as its the hottest curry EVER for me lol but here it's more of a medium curry and its lovely! It was a lovely evening...just sat chatting together....but I must admit that my mind kept returning to the thought of Tara and her Daughter....in the hospital...and all their family has been through lately :(

Today I had a few things I HAD to get done this morning but I ended up running late (as usual) and had to do a couple of them this afternoon instead. Never mind. Sam had Pre-K this afternoon and it was his 'Show and Tell' day too - he took his Wall-E to show everyone. Today they learned about Owls and learned to write the letter Oo!!! We got a letter to say they are having a skating party for his last day of school in a couple of weeks and parents get to go! That will be fun!

I was supposed to have dinner out with Val tonight...but she cancelled on me (Poo on her to use one of her quotes hahahaha imagine putting family FIRST!!!!!! lol) so instead I get to snuggle up with my amazing husband and stay in the warm which is no bad thing because my poor truck was getting blown across the highway LITERALLY today - oh boy those winds were strong - Sam and I turned the corner at Millennium Place and literally got blown across the sidewalk!!! It was so funny!! And sooooo cold!!! I had to cling on to Sam so tight or he would have been blown over!

Lloyd is off of work tomorrow YAY!!! I am having my hair cut and then I get to go and see MY EDWARD!!!! Yay Twilight is in theatres TONIGHT and we have tickets for tomorrow night :) OMG OMG OMG I am sooooo excited :) so so so excited :)

If you haven't read the book WHY ON EARTH NOT??????????

In my thoughts....

As if they haven't been through enough, Tara from www.cfmommy.blogspot.com who just weeks ago lost her home and all it's contents to a housefire, has spent the last day or so going back and forth to the Stollery Childrens Hospital at the U of A, with her Daughter. As many of you know, her Daughter has Cystic Fibrosis. 'K' had stomach flu and was vomiting and had terrible stomach pains and was rushed in with a bowel obstruction. She was given IV meds that seemed to help and was allowed home but last night became ill again and went back in. I believe this morning she is back in again on Doctors advice!!

This family has been through SOOOOOOOOOOO much this year - endless hospital stays, the house fire and now this.....please keep them in your thoughts as I'm not sure how much more they can take. If you have time please drop by Tara's blog and leave a few words of support! I know those words mean a lot to Tara when she has time to read them!

A Sam-ism...

This morning Sam came up to me and said:

"Mom I'm scared, I think real Goblets are going to get me"!!!

Quote of the day!!!

"Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit.”
