So what exactly have I been up to during all this time.....

I've done a second interview at another prospective employer and I'm hoping to hear something early next week.  Had a really good feeling about this from the get-go and the second interview went smashing.  I was on a high coming out of that meeting.  It was unreal.

I took today off to make for an extra long May 2-4 weekend.  Consequently, no camping this weekend.  Jeff's parents are still away in the States so they couldn't watch J's kids in order for us to go camping for the weekend.  Plus, May 2-4 weather is always, always dicey.  Sure, it can be nice and dandy down here but factor in we're traveling 4  hours north of here...yeah you can get every weather combination.  For instance, last year we had rain, sun, wind, rain, freezing race, hail, sleet and snow and temperatures varying by 30 degrees from the peak of the day to at night.  Last year, we bailed on the second last day....We tried to tough it out but eventually left at sundown, or just beforehand.

Alex came down last night and Jeff and him went geocaching for a few hours today while I steam cleaned.  Charlie, ever so helpful that he is, was getting in my way whereas Baxter found the bedroom and went and had a nap on my pillow.  Speaking of the pups, Sir Charles turns a whopping 3 on Sunday!! My how time flies, so many precious, happy moments with my hamburger.

Urgh I went and picked up Chinese when the boys got back around 4...now I feel like shit.  Ha, serves me right I guess.

Going to read I think, so tah-tah. :)

So some new changes will be occuring on Monday....a bit of mixed emotion but I know it's the right thing to do, even if it's shitty at first.  Must look out for myself as no one else will, ya know?

Alex came down for the weekend.  Also have British relatives staying at my mom's.  Went out for dinner with all them last night at an English pub.. Was a good time.

Also, another positive note, EVERYTHING is booked for Europe shy of the Thalys train tickets from Paris to Amsterdam via Brussels, but that's only because their bookings are only available 3 months in advance, whereas the Eurostar I was able to book that at the 4-month mark.

Puppies have had a quiet weekend, they're just SO tired, it must be such a nice, easy life being a pup. :)

Last but certainly not least, Happy Mother's day to my wonderful mother.  You're my one of two best friends and my life would be missing something without her in it. I adore her to pieces and love her to bits.  Thankful for everything she does for me and us. :) <3
