Back from the Dead...almost

Is anyone still reading TFB? Ya, I know, bad blogger. With summer here, all the kids at home, places to go, people to see, there really is not much time for poor little TFB blog. I am sure you understand. That and Facebook has me totally hooked!! (But that's a whole other post)

Okay, I've played with a few templates, and I have finally decided on this one for now. I love it! Hope you do too. Let's see how long I leave it. Its so much work to tweak each new one. Truly it is.

Its been a crazy summer. The past five weeks have flown by in a blink. We've had the kids in summer camp for two weeks, we've been at the cottage for one of the weeks and for one long weekend, been to a friends cottage for another long weekend, we painted our white fence (totally channelled Huck Finn those days) plus throw in a few day trips here and there and it brings us to August.

Now its times to get ready for TWO of my kids for school. Did I mention that TWO of my kids are going to school? TWO!

Okay so the girl is only going for half days, but hey its a whole morning minus two. I'll take it!

The baby has turned into a full fledged toddler, walking, climbing, running and basically turning my natural "insert colour possibility here" hair grey. By far, this one is the most adventuresome of the three. I see duct tape and a harness in his future. Oops, sorry that was my outside voice.

I am very depressed that Rockstar didn't return this summer. That was a terrific show. What do we have this summer? Big Brother, which listening to the pile of idiots on there can make ya hurl crap at the TV.
I could write a novel on those morons easily. I really don't give a crap who wins, they all bug me!

So what do I do with the bit of spare time I have, I Facebook. Hey, I've reconnected with a few old friends from days gone by. To me, that's worth it in the end.

More snow. I thought the stupid little gopher said early spring? He's fired.

I was really hoping for a "warmish" weekend this weekend. We have a fun event planned for this weekend. We are entering an "Amazing Race" style charity event, called a Poker run. There are eight of us signing up, two teams of four, boys against the girls. I am not sure how many teams there will be in total, I imagine many.

Basically,you are given clues and have to figure out locations in the city and perform tasks at each one to get the next clue to your next location. A pub in London is hosting this event for the Alzheimer's society.

I mean come on!! Girls are SOOOOOO much better at figuring out where to go. We are soooooooooo gonna kick the boys ass. In typical OVERINFLATED ego style, the boys have already started their trash tasking. Whatevah!! Put your pants up Shorty!!! You know who YOU are.

Each team is to come up with a theme and as the boys have not revealed theirs, I shall refrain from revealing ours. But I will be back, and I will post as many embarrassing pics of the boys as I can manage to take. Of course, I will post only pretty pics of the girls doing their victory dance.

Cars, egos, alcohol, charity, good friends, cameras, and silly costumes...what could be more fun???
