Look at me!! Look at me!!

I have to brag! ‘Your shape’ made me do a fitness test the other night. I scored an A+, which is way better than the C I got last month. Keep in mind that it is based on what the camera sees, if you aren’t wearing the right colours or if the lighting is bad. But I think my energy level was up and I was really motivated to do a good job! So far I haven’t missed a workout, I have actually done more than scheduled. Of course I am resting my muscles. I have decided that I have to do yoga everyday. I tried the ‘Your shape’ yoga today. It was pretty good. I record a yoga program on t.v. called ‘Intimate Yoga’ with Sonia Dillion on Suntv. They are now playing episodes that I have already seen. I am bored with the show. I need something new. That is what is nice about ‘Your shape’ it is the same exercises or poses, I have a chance to master them, but in different sequences. I recommend it to people. It is a good idea. I haven’t tried ‘Wii Fit’, I have heard really good things. Maybe one day I will try that. Until then I have Jenny McCarthy and ‘Your shape’.

Dill sprouts!!

The dill sprouted! I am so excited!

Lovely Lilac!

Lilacs in a tea cup. Pretty! I cut a branch off the lilac tree in the front yard. There are now lilacs all over the house. Even by Frank's food dish! He likes the smell. I think they are a really pretty flower and they smell lovely.
Todays weather was a little schizo, cold and windy then warm and sunny. We had to go to Mosport race track to a auto shop there, James ordered some parts for the race car from there. Then we went for a drive. We enjoy going for drives. We noticed a lot of places for sale. James, just like my mother, enjoys looking at real estate. We aren't looking to buy, it is just fun to look. Window shop. I absolutely love going to open houses. Everyone thinks that is depressing, James gets depressed, I really enjoy seeing what is out there. Also it is practice for when we do look for another house.
Went food shopping, I am going to make shepherd's pie tomorrow. Also I am going to make a soup. I have to clean out the fridge and freezer. There is no room! After food shopping, James put carpet that we bought the other day into the van. I did some yoga and housework. And then we went to Red Lobster, or as the french say 'Lobster Rouge'!!!! I ate everything on my plate. I spent the rest of the night in pain. I was laying on the couch feeling like crap, so I forced myself to go for a walk. It felt good. Cool, fresh air. Now I am going to have a bath and then go to bed. I need to get up early tomorrow. Work out before James gets home, so I can blast dance music!

Polka dot toenails and Bread!!

Well, the bread isn't perfect but it is still pretty damn good! The bottom is a bit moist but if you toast it, AMAZING! I put a little butter and jam on a big thick slice, it is to die for! Way better than store bought bread. I am on my way to being a master baker. Master baker....that is what I said. pervert. Geez.
I painted the toenails, finger too! Green with white polka dots. I think they look cute. Aren't you all happy I am without a job, otherwise who else's toes would you be reading about. I am going to take some more pictures this afternoon. I noticed some more sprouts this morning. We might be getting some frost tonight, so I have to find something to cover my strawberries and peppers. I don't want them to die. I think I might weave plastic bags together and get Frank to hold them all night. His contribution to the garden, other than his shit and piss. We'll see.

Avocado tree nubbin'!!

The pit has sprouted something on the bottom of it. Finally! James told me to throw it out the other day because it is doing nothing. Ha! Your face is doing nothing! (Not really though, your face does a lot, smiles, talks(a lot), makes me laugh, see a lot!)
Anyways, hopefully it will grow a tree, already. I am getting sick of looking at it.
Okay, don't lose patience. Stay with it.
Bread is out of the oven!! I hope it is cooked. I put it back in the oven for an extra five minutes. I couldn't leave it in for any longer or else the top would have burned. I will keep you posted.

The Peeps!!





Arthur, Ashley, Holly, Glendon and Michelle. These are the peeps who made it out to the housewarming party. Good times! We will have to have more parties this summer. It was so nice just sitting on the back deck in the sun. Keep it up gang!!

TUESDAY!! yeah it is.


The basil is growing!!

I planted strawberry and hot pepper plants outside today. My friends Glendon and Michelle brought them as a housewarming gift. We had a party to finally celebrate moving out of Toronto and into James’ house. It was a lot of fun. It was really nice to see everyone and to be partying out here instead of in Toronto. I hope that this can happen again more.

I am baking bread right now. This is my second attempt at baking bread from scratch. I want to master baking. I hope it works. So far it is better than the last time. Rising perfectly. I am trying to figure out what to have for dinner. Either Spicy pasta sauce with bow-tie pasta or shepherd’s pie.

I noticed a lilac tree outside yesterday. I am going to go and cut some off. I love lilacs. They are my favourite smelling flower. I am going to paint polka dots on my nails! Then read outside. I am still reading ‘Eat Pray Love’, she is now in India. So far, pretty good. I am looking forward to seeing the movie.

Grease is on t.v. right now. I had ‘hotdoggins!’ for lunch today. I can’t resist. They are the worst kind of meat, but I love them!

So far this has been a pretty wicked day!

Oh! I did my taxes yesterday. I have never done them before. They weren’t as hard as I thought they would be to do. They were really confusing, though. I am going to get James to check them. I am going to go and hand in my application to ‘The Humane Society’ in Oshawa. I want to be a cat cuddler!
