Take 2 - PhoBlo Days, Day 1

The pictures have worked today, so without further ado, we join our day already in progress:

I had forgotten that Friday was Day 1 of the Winter Edition of PhoBlo Days until the boys were leaving for school:



The Princess was crushed that they were leaving:

She enjoys making silly faces for the camera:



Buh-bye boys, we'll miss you:



Because I was SO sure that Friday was going to be a snow day, what with the 'snowicane' they were predicting and all, I stayed up until midnight doing bookwork. And since there was no snowday in sight, I could barely drag my butt out of bed at 7:00 am. Hence the shower after the children were gone:



Ahhhhh, a little bit of Heaven on earth:



9:00 am and it's time to start my workday:



The commute was only the length of a hallway, but there was traffic stopped in odd places:



Princess Thumbelina was upset at me because I had to work...and because I kept taking her picture...so she drew pictures. The angry picture is of a little girl who was mad because her mom put milk in her cereal...it's a self-portrait of sorts:



Mr. Happy was remote-desk-topping me to the church computer so that I could do the T-4's for the staff. Nuthin like waiting until the last day to get it done:



Princess Thumbelina was busy with her office work as well:



Then it was time to go to the church and hand out the T-4's...this was my commute into town:



Our destination:



And a quick stop to mail some letters:



And another quick stop at my favourite store to buy some cute push-pins:



Home again:



With my office assistant ready and willing to do all he can to help:



But first, an afternoon coffee is top priority:



Both of my helpers busily doing their things:



4:00 pm and the boys are home from school:



And it suddenly occurs to me that I forgot to eat lunch:



Shaggy & Thumbelina go out to enjoy the snow:





While I check on my farm at Farmville:



A healthy supper from Little Ceasar's that Mr. Happy brought home for the children (he brought us home some rice bowls from Boston Pizza):



After supper, I practiced singing...mostly because I was procrastinating about cleaning up the kitchen from supper...



Because I am old (no, really, I am), and I can no longer handle staying up until midnight, I collapsed on the couch to watch some TV:



Thumbelina insisted that we watch one of her shows...this particular show is called In The Night Garden and it put both Mr. Happy and I to sleep. As a result, Thumbelina got to stay up an extra half hour:



After the children went to bed, we watched the Canadian women's curling team get silver and the Canadian men's hockey team win against somebody...Slovakia? Yes, Slovakia, and now they are in the finals for the gold. Against the US. It will be like watching Saturday night hockey on a Sunday afternoon:



Oh, and I stayed up until midnight for the second night in a row. Mostly because of blogger not cooperating. Stay tuned for Day 2 of even more exciting times!!
