the king.. has returned.. (aka summer)

                 

  It is  finally here.. I can see it.. I can feel it.. and I can almost taste it.. SUMMER!   it was a nice zero to sixty.. we went from clouds and 17c to now 31c tomorrow! I am ready for it.. it is also nice that Dustins days off were moved around and we get to go out and enjoy it together.. when I woke up this morning.. my mind reeled at what we are going to do!  I have my new back yard now.. so some suntanning is definitely in order! I assumed once I died my hair brown.. that I would have the lovely sun to colour up this face and make me look less ghost-like.. well.. that was a bust.. what will we bbq.. what will we drink.. (hello.. still have chilled Blueberry Vodka in the freezer!) what new game can we teach Olive that involves being outside?  I have found some “Italian style light bulbs” from Target that are dangling.. and now I want to go back and create a light roof of lights! It could happen.. 

Last night at work was Random with a capital R.. I think people are crawling out of their caves and still numb from our crappy weather we have been having..  here is one of my conversations.. 

man at table of 6- what Deschute do you have on tap (that is a beer company for my Canadian friends)

me-  Twilight (that is its name)

man at table of 6- what does it taste like?

me- vampires

man at table of 6- hmm.. ok.. I will try it.. 

me- ok.. (walk away)

seriously.. I said a beer tasted like Vampires.. and he goes.. ok.. either he wasn’t listening to me.. or didn’t want to ask again what a vampire tasted like… which I would have followed up with .. Bloody awful ;)    I than ended my night by grating Parmesan cheese on this one ladies pizza.. and the handle stuck and I sprayed her with cheese all up her face.. in her hair.. on her lap.. and last but not least.. in her beer.. and than I let out one of my pterodactyl yelps and we all started laughing… It was one of thosenights.. 

  I am back to sucking the marrow out of life.. that is not my quote.. but oh how I love it..  I go through phases.. the last week was an ” I am so tired.. all I do is housework.. why cant I find a babysitter” phase..  and this week I am moving on to ” I am waking up early.. to get ready and get out of the house and create life memories.” some could call it bi-polar depression.. but I think I just had a case of the SAD’s  

  My summer calendar is already filling up.. I knew this would happen.. It happens every summer.. I want to leave it open and be free to float around.. and now with my working 3 nights a week ( i know I cant complain.. there are people that have to work 5)..  and tons of major summer events happening.. It is filling up.. July is FULL!  so.. with only 3 things on August lists.. maybe I will aim for a free flowing August..  

I will let you know how it all works out :)

look at that face.. this girl is ready to party with her mama!
