At bedtime, before our story, we decided to begin working on our dreamcatcher. The materials included in the kit are quite nice and seem plentiful (it can be aggravating when craft kits are skimpy on quantity of supplies). Tonight is also my last IV Solumedrol treatment (5 of 5) and although I [Read more]
On a different note, I was advised today that my readership included a group I was not previously aware of. Apparently there are some among the staff @ MGH (our local hospital) who are fond (or perhaps that's not quite the right word lol) let's say who have noticed my blog. Apparently some are [Read more]
Ok, another very busy day (in spite of having less than adequate supplies of energy). The kids were a huge help. So was Vickie as she has been ever since my symptoms began coming back with a vengeance last week. She goes beyond giving me rides to the hospital and has been calling to arrange [Read more]
Well, putting the IV in was a chore… Mary was a doll though, very patient, kept it fun and didn’t get upset that my veins kept poping. After 6 attempts we finally decided to just go anti-cubital, sheesh. Well, can’t say she didn’t put in a great effort! I am hoping that [Read more]
The photos I think will tell most of the story… There was as much walking the bike as there was riding the bike 🙂 I was quite impressed with her improvement from last year, especially since it was her first ride since. She can use her brakes well already, she was also [Read more]
Emeraude était très contente mardi, quand nous avons ppeler Grandmaman pour une marche et elle pouvait venir même qu’elle partait pour Thunder Bay mercredi matin… Nous avons pris une grande marche sur la rue Caribou, arrêtant au ‘beaver park’. Celui est un des parc [Read more]
Emeraude has felted quite blessed this week and I have been teasing her that she is a ‘lucky ducky’ as Monday we received a call that she had won Field’s colouring contest which was a beautiful basket full of really neat goodies including: chocolate markers stuffed duck she & [Read more]
It is great to see just how much she trusts him, Emeraude began feeling weary of swinging last summer...much more impressive when she kept asking to sit on Lloyd so he could pump them so hard they were up side down ... [Read more]
...leave it behind in his locker to rot not wanting to stand out or being embarrassed (I was never on many sports teams but my freinds and I always loved extra food, as I mentioned so have his friends when I've done stuff, so I don't really understand his view on this but still try to respect it [Read more]
Well, I think it’s time for another IV Solumedrol treatment. Sunday I went for my first dilaudid injection in weeks (since the last steroid treatment at the end of March) and I have returned again yesterday and then again today. I have a lot of bone and joint pain and am feeling fatigue, [Read more]
Well, today is a crazy busy day so here is our morning in photos (no time to blog, must work on my Second Story Press cover letter), well, Emeraude & I. Lloyd went to speak with Mr.Gorges about getting back to work and it sounds like it went pretty well; I think if he is [Read more]
Thank you Lord for my many blessings, for my healthy, wonderful, children so full of love, imagination, kindness, dreams, potential. Happy Easter everyone, will try...{read more...} [Read more]
We walked to Grandmaman & Grandpapa’s for supper. Grandmaman made salmon pies (no meat) for Good Friday and they were DELICIOUS. After supper she & Emeraude decorated an Easter tree which Emeraude had a blast doing. Because of my Mom’s job, I don’t post photos of her on [Read more]
We finally planted our final tray of seeds this afternoon. Emeraude just loves playing in the dirt and is so curious about the entire process. We discussed differences in the sizes/types/colours of our seeds and tried to use what we learned from the last tray (sticking to one seed / square; not [Read more]
...recipe for the colouring solution. I melted parafin wax which Emeraude used a shishkabob stick to draw with on some eggs, we dipped a couple into it (just the ends) and also just drizzled the wax randomly on others. Lots of fun, they look great, just need to pick up some inexpensive baskets from [Read more]
