BAD blogger.

I have a tonne of FO's!!! I'll get to blogging soon! Promise....

Happy Sunshine day tomorrow!! 15 days of rain is a real downer.

Whale hat and kitty cat.

I made two of these whale hats the week/weekend for two of my friends little boys. Another friend is trekking out to see them this month so I will send them along with her!

This other pic is how I found Chloe on the bed when I took the hat picture. Little kitty had a rough day getting her treats out of the cupboard and ripping them open. For her life isn't snooze you lose, it's snooze after you win.

I love snow. Everything about snow. From how when there is a storm your house feels like it's under a blanket to work being cancelled! I even kind of like shoveling, just cause you can make nice clean lines and when you are done there is big piles of snow to look at. I also always take doggie for a walk in the snow. It's so quiet and peaceful and beautiful. I especially like when only a few cars have driven on the road and the snow on the road looks like cookie dough.

SNOW!

Goal Ball!!!

Go team! My brother is going to Montreal this weekend to play in a Goalball tournament! He's has very little sight, an estimate is around 2%. Goalball is awesome and should be more known. Pass it along. Sighted people can play also as everyone wears eye covers to block all sight!

Habit.

I have a morning habit of laying on the couch with doggie while waiting for my husband to be ready for work. I like this time it's peaceful.

But my most favorite habit, which I try to break but I can't is to have a bath after swimming. I've had showers at the pool, only to have to come home and have a bath. It winds me down and warms me up!

Here's the walls of the bathtub! I could draw the pattern blindfolded!

Place - somewhat loosely using the word place

This is me...at the end of running 21.1km at the Bluenose Marathon this past May. This was a very happy place for me. The smile looks forced...it is as my whole body was tired, even smiling seemed like too much at the time, but I was sure smiling on the inside!

I started training in October 2007, having never ran before I had a big hill to climb. I ran three times a week, only missing one time from October till the bluenose in May of 2008. I think that's impressive on it's own. I ran a 5km on NYE, 10km in Ottawa in March that my friend flew from Calgary to cheer me on! And then the Half marathon in May! I can't say I love running, but I love that I accomplished something like that...! My true love is swimming and water polo!

Home Sweet Home

For the home day of Comfort week, I chose the loveseat. We just purchased this new piece of furniture in December! It adds so much more seating, and provides a nice place to curl up on a Sunday for some girlie movies and knitting. I try to set aside some time Sunday afternoon for knitting or napping, I need this to face the week!!

Shelby likes the loveseat, but does prefer the couch! Chloe cat loves the loveseat, however you know how kitties are...never willing to help you on a photoshoot.
