End of February......GOOD BYE February!! I am hoping for a sunny March. March is full of new growth..right, its suppose to be Spring in March...I know I live in Canada! But a girl can dream!! As I type this, I can hear my neighbour....he has the snow blower out...thats right, we got a little dumping! I guess that saying will apply to March, in like a LION and out like a LAMB! Please!!! February has been a mixed month. With three children and some hours being cutback for my Husband...I was getting nervous. I was glancing through the General Help Section of the papers and checking things out online. There is very little out there...one has to get creative! Thankfully Monday he got the call that he has been waiting for....he has a new position...more hours and more responsibility...fingers crossed things go along swimmingly. The only downside is that he gets up at 1:30AM...but he is home for dinner!!!PLUS we will be saving on power...if we all go to bed early, everything will be off!! Then again...cause I am going to bed early too.....I am reading more...which means I will need NEW books!! Matt commented that our bookshelves are full(suggesting that I havent read them)...poor fellow...I have read mostly all of them....still a few more Binchy's to go!!
This past weekend too, sickness came back to our little home. Josh started the weekend by throwing up and Alex ended the weekend by throwing up....another reason to kiss Winter GOODBYE!! Lately too...I have been feeling housebound....miserable weather,sickness or feeling too poor to do anything...so I start to go through the pages of Kijiji.....clicking on items to "watch"....some I want for myself...others I ponder over...I could fix 'that' up and resell it!! Right now though I have a list and recently bought a side table.....I am in the middle of refinishing it.....I am thinking that I WANT it...it would be great in the bedroom, put it on my side, some books on top....NOW all I need is a comfy chair...bright light...it can be my little corner where I can read and escape the critters in my home!
I suppose we are all feeling that ITCH...to leave OLD MAN WINTER behind and WELCOME SPRING. I know the kids are...Josh got upset with the latest dumping of snow. Katie tells me that she likes all seasons but is ready for Spring....and Alex, well the other day he was crouching over and saying goodbye to the snow. I can see it too in the parents that walk their kids to school...we have this look...we look at each other as we pass one another and nod...we know...we all know. So here is HOPING and WISHING for a GREAT MARCH!! The month of SPRING and turning our CLOCKS FORWARD!!!
