The husband has flown the coop. Mark is in Edmonton right now with his family. They went to a hockey game last night and he is spending the day there today and will be back home tomorrow. If I'm honest I could sit here and right a post ranting about how left out and lonely I feel, but it's really not so bad. And I hate being a downer, so no rant today!
Instead I will ramble on about nonsense so I can avoid the productive tasks that I should be doing, like cleaning out our pets' cages and cleaning out the deep freezer so that my fridge freezer doesn't pop open at the least provocation.
Or I could even unpack more boxes in the hopes that my printer power cord will be found because as of this minute, it is still missing. I never realized before I lost it how important it is to my life. I'm starting to feel a little panicky about it. Because, I mean, it's been three weeks I think since we've been here and it still hasn't surfaced. That can't be a good sign.
Yesterday was a beautiful day. In the sun it was just plain hot! I love spring. It's such a happy feeling when things warm up. Yes, it is supposed to snow again (so I've heard) but I console myself with the fact that the snow usually melts by afternoon. And my kids love to eat snow, so that makes them happy.
Actually, let me tell you about my snow-eating kids. They love snow so much that they will eat it from anywhere: the ground, from the bottoms of their boots, from cars. They eat clean snow and muddy snow, they don't discriminate. I cannot get them to stop licking cars that have snow on them. Or even cars that are just wet. Lick, lick, lick.
Maybe I should ask my Mom-in-law if Mark had a penchant for licking cars when he was younger because I sure don't remember doing that.
