Updates 'n stuff!

I spent all day yesterday making perogies, even got up early this morning to do s'more! I still have about 40 doz left to make! Yikes! My hands are just hurting, my back is sore, but I love every minute of it! I know my Baba's proud of me!

On to other news! I wanted to blog about this a couple of days ago, right after the wicked storm Winnipeg and other parts of Manitoba was hit with. It was the night of the ultrasound (which was AMAZING, by the way! More to come on that!). Hubby and I were both completely wiped.

After I finished work at 8:30pm, hubby and I met up with some friends for wings at Smitty's (wing night - what can I say, the baby was craving it!), and by the time we got home, we couldn't wait to get to bed.

11:30pm, we're in bed.

Midnight - I hear someone walking up and down our back lane, pushing the noisiest shopping cart over bumps and cracks! So I'm awake for a bit.

1:15am - the hail starts pelting our windows. Dono and I are up, going around the house and closing windows, watching from the safety of our kitchen the lightning show outside.

2am - back to bed.

3:30am - I have to pee. !!!

5am - someone throws something in the neighbour's mailbox, and slams the GD thing shut. Right outside my window, too! I jolt up.

7am - neighbour starts having a loud conversation below my window with god knows who!

7:15am - a horn from a train in the distance goes off.....and continues to honk one continuous long honk for at LEAST 7 minutes straight.

I'm up for good!

What a crazy night that was! Why do things always happen during the night when we have a chance to sleep in the next day?!! Crappers!

(btw, we didn't get any hail damage - I was afraid for my flowers and veggies, but all is well!)

I have to go hit the shower and get ready for work now, but I will definitely be posting on our ultrasound experience! What a trip!

Have a great day everyone!

Craziness ensues!

Hello friends!

Man, one thing after another around here, I swear I'm gonna go crazy!

We've just been real busy with reno's and work and everything in between. My hrs at work are long - 10.5hr days, I'm home by 9pm and I usually just have enough energy to eat and go to bed!

Today is day 4 of 4 for me, but it's a shorter one - Dono and I are heading down to the hospital this morning for our first ultrasound! SOOOO exciting!

Then I'm at work right after. Oh well!

I'm off Fri and Sat, was supposed to be off Sun, but to cover the 4hrs I'm missing today, I picked up a bitty shift then. Ahhh, shift work...! This weekend, I'm also going on a perogy-blitz, so far I have orders to fill that total 48 dozen! It's gonna be a long weekend, that's for sure!

Anyhoot, I have to go jump in the shower and get my day going here - I just wanted to pop in to let y'all know I'm still around! Thanks for sticking around and reading my lil' blog, even if I don't do anything to it for a few days!

Hope you guys have a great day!
