STOP! POLICE!
Chris got his letter today! He wrote his test way back in June, almost a year ago, and had pretty much given up hope that he'd hear from the RCMP, but the letter came today! :) He has to get all his things in order and then he'll be off to Regina. It seems so unreal. He is so excited about it. We're all so excited about it!
I think that's it for now. Just wanted to let you all know! :D Take care!

Come and Knock on our Door...
I adore "Three's Comapany". I now own seasons 1 through 5 on DVD. I can't help myself. Whenever I'm at Walmart I scout around for more of them. I think I have them all now so far. Gotta wait for season 6 to come out! Oh, but it will be mine! This weekend past, I was still trying to recover from my week long bout of the flu, so B and I lazed in bed for much of the weekend and watched tv. We were watching episodes from season 5 (cuz it's my newest purchase!). I know Jack is the central character but I've always preferred Janet. She's such a great character. So funny and clever and witty. She really brings out the laughs. Janet and Jack, two of the best tv characters ever! Those two and the gals from the Golden Girls! What ever would we have done as kids without those two shows I wonder?! Most tv today will never compare to the shows of the 70's and 80's!
Anyhoo, I'm finally rid of the fever and chills! I've been so so sick. Achy and grumpy :P My voice was gone again and I had a horrible cough that's still lingering but at least it's not keeping me up all night long anymore. My little Rory Boo was sick as well. Poor sweetie. On Friday we both rested all day. Me on the big couch and him on the love seat. Bless his boots, he had his little Winnie blanket out all wrapped around him, asking if he could "please have some more orange juice, Amanda".
I brought him to school today and the parents/guardians had to leave the classroom for more than half the session to attend a meeting and it was the first time the kids were by themselves with the teacher. I asked him after if he was nervous having to stay there alone and he said "I wasn't nervous Amanda, but I was nervous when you came back", so I asked him why and he told me "because I was excited to show you the picture I colored". Made me laugh! He's a darling :)
I believe that's it for now. I trust everyone is well and taking good care of themselves. Bye!
*...we've been waiting for you/where the kisses are hers and hers and his/three's company too*

Short Day
I got home early today from work so I have lot's of free time on my hands! Both the boys are sick so Mrs. Shortall only went to school long enough to do her lesson plan for the substitute, and when she got home she told me I could go on home too. It's nice to get some time off unexpectedly but I don't like it that it's because Rory and Nolan are sick. Also, Nolan broke his wrist in gym class last week! He has a cast on for 4 weeks. He's none too impressed with it! :P
It's snowing again today. Big fluffy flakes. It looks so pretty, though I'm really very tired of all the snow. I wish it would all melt so some warmer weather could come. It'd be nice to be able to go out without a bulky coat on! I miss wearing my blazer type jackets!
I bought a wardrobe at Canadian Tire on Saturday, and B put it together for me on Sunday. He's so handy :) No matter what I buy he helps me out with it and puts it up for me. Bless his boots. What a sweetie. It's really nice too. There's a shlf in it on top and a bar for hanging clothes on and two doors so you can close it and everything is tidy because you can't see the clothes in it. It's very convenient, as dad couldn't build a closet into the room. I really like it.
I should go again I suppose. Take care everyone. Happy Birthday Sheldon! Hope you have a great day! :D

Renovations
So, I'm finally getting around to getting my bedroom done. Dad and Chris seperated the basement into two bedrooms, one each for me and Andrew, and I've been having a good time making it pretty! I have all the walls painted a very pretty shade of purple called 'Daybreak', and I have a new comforter to go on my brand new double bed! The comforter has a bunch of colors in it, purple being one of them and also red, so I chose red to be my accent color in the room and it's absolutely lovely. :)
I bought some red material and mom made me some window toppers and it really sets off the room. It actually looks like a bedroom now. Whole and homey and lived in. B has been helping me on the weekends when he's out and it's so nice to have someone to help me get things done! Yesterday he put together the vanity that I got for Christmas so now I have a place for my makeup and hair straightner and Chris put up some shelves for me on Saturday and I've been putting things up around. It's my own space and I have privacy and it smells pretty. :) The only thing left to do is to put up a door, and dad and Chris are going to do that for me when the weather gets a little nicer so they can get outside with the power saws and whatnot!
Monday past, Feb.27, I had the day off work so I decided to go to St. John's, as I haven't been there is ages and ages. Lynette has been working in there since December so I got a ride in and out with her. What a great day I had! B and I spent the whole day at the mall and we went to see a movie (Firewall, great movie), and we had lunch and went to the arcade (cuz he loves it!) and I, of course, did some shopping. I even dropped in at Jenn's work and saw her and chatted for a few minutes. It was so good to see her. I miss seeing everyone. I also got to introduce her to B which was nice. :)
Speaking of B, his birthday is coming up in a few weeks, on March 28th. I gotta think of something to get him. I already have something in mind that he knows about so I have to think of a surprise to go with it. It sucks that the 28th falls on a weekday. So we'll have to celebrate on the weekend I suppose. I wonder what we'll do...
Oh! Lynette asked me to stand at her wedding!! I have to give a speech welcoming her to our family and I get to wear a pretty dress! I'm really excited and it was really sweet of her to ask me. :)
I have become semi-addicted to the band Stabbing Westward. B introduced me to their music and I absolutely love it. I can't stop listening to their cd's. It's all I listen to these days!
Ok, I think I'm done for another little while. I hope everyone is well and happy. Take care of yourselves.
*but it's been so long since i have known the truth/these dreams we've left abandoned/and i'm haunted by your face/and the memory of your kisses, sweet kisses/do you remember?/i still remember so much/i remember never feeling so alive/do you remember?/i still can't forget your touch/we swore that we would never end/we knew our love transcended space and time*
