I made it! After missing three days of school last week and finding myself in a position of having a massive amount of catch-up and an exhausted body… I made it through the week… in one piece. It’s a new Continue reading I made it!

My new toy…
Speaking of breaking the bank… I bought a Canon Rebel T2i!!! I don’t have a freakin’ clue what to do with it but appreciate the salesman explaining all of the features… while pretending not to notice the glazed look in my Continue reading My new toy…
Living the dream…
Last night, I had a brief visit with an old friend… running into him for a moment… but thrilled to see him nevertheless. We shared a quick embrace and a few sweet words before he promised he’d be back soon. Continue reading Living the dream…
One down… three to go…
Part of me is too excited to even write the words… but yes… I’m one semester down and for the next four days, until the kids are done… I’m a STAY AT HOME MOM!!!!!! I haven’t had a whole lot Continue reading One down… three to go…
Wah wah wah…..
Lately, when I come in here, I feel like all I do is complain which is ironic as I’m greatly enjoying my life and to be honest, can’t remember a time when it’s been so full. Which is the problem. Continue reading Wah wah wah…..
Blast off…
Yesterday I drew a rocket ship! I admit… it wasn’t the best rocket… in fact… not even close. However, considering I’m totally new to Adobe Illustrator and am not exactly great at drawing on paper let alone on the computer… Continue reading Blast off…
Dawson Print Shop…
There have been moments in my life that I’ve realized I’m standing in the middle of history… something special surrounds me and I’m silenced by it’s magnitude. One grandfather was a blacksmith… the other a tinsmith. When I’ve held the Continue reading Dawson Print Shop…

Yesterday morning had me spraying every surface in my house with an anti-flea chemical and feeding my noble beast a pill disguised as a cheese slice… forcing the annoying varmint to jump from their warm cosy host onto the the Continue reading Flea Bag…
Too pooped for my pants…
I have NEVER wished for the weekend to come so desperately in my life… just so I can sleep in on Saturday morning. I’m exhausted. Seriously… how do you people do this everyday? I’m used to getting up at seven Continue reading Too pooped for my pants…
An hour’s break between classes and I’m realizing this is potentially what my blogging days are coming to… grabbing moments at random… not putting anything earth shattering in print for awhile. This classroom… the people in it… it’s daunting. I Continue reading
So far so good…
So far so good! I’ve had a tour of the campus, met the instructors, returned books I didn’t need, took a shuttle both to and from the parking lot and checked out the “living wall” in the Trades and Technology Continue reading So far so good…
My return to school as a “mature” student…
I sat in the parking lot making every effort to hold back the tears. I’ve said many times that this is going to be good for me…that the program I picked is the right one…but the idea of my life Continue reading My return to school as a “mature” student…
Bite this…
The box containing my new Mac Book Pro has officially been cracked and loaded with software while various pictures with ridiculous effects have been taken using the “Photo Booth”. The damn thing sat on my table for two weeks taunting Continue reading Bite this…
Super mom…
A few weeks ago, while sitting with half a dozen girlfriends at the Canada Games Centre, an email arrived on my blackberry announcing that I’d been accepted into school this September. I read it aloud to the moms while sitting in the comfy chairs drinking coffee and watching our children Continue reading Super mom…
