Good morning I say to everyone! Although, I don't know how much of a good morning it can be when, not 5 minutes after a conversation with Barb about Earwigs (you know those slimy, scary looking lil bugs that move like lightning & have pinchers on their backs), I was clearing some papers from my bulletin board...when low & behold 2 of the lil buggers go shooting across the kitchen floor, scaring the sh** outta me!!! Damn, it's a good thing that the fly swatter was very close at hand (not to mention the toilet paper), hadda hit 'em both a coupla times cuz they were still twitchin after the 1st time.

Anyhow, onto the gossip at hand. I would like to give a great big HELLO to a new fellow blogger, Realm of the Beancounter!!! Welcome Bean!

I started a new job last week and it's going rather well I think. Getting up at 4:30 or 5:00 am has never been my thing, but I'm getting used to it and actually starting to enjoy it!!! But I must say that the birds that are flying around as I'm driving into work at 6ish should probably try coffee in the morning. Yesterday on my way into work, I'm sipping on my coffee & they are dive bombing the car, now keep in mind that I'm not quite awake either, but havin to dodge birds on the highway sure can wake you up quick!!! The Kamikazees!!!

I'm preppin for a trip out to BC. to visit my sisiter & her husband & my good friend who just moved out there too. My neice who has been in Cambodia, Thailand & the like for the last 4 months will be there as well, although she will be leaving for Manitboa the day after I get there. But that's okay I say to myself, cuz she will be in Ontario shortly after I get back from my trip, so I'm hoping she will come check out the humble beach pad for a couple of days!!!

Oh, yeah, bout that birthday party I went to. A great time was had by all & I was given pictures of the party only under threat of bamboo shoots under my fingernails if I posted any pix on my blog...mmmm, should I or shouldn't I??? Nah, it's hard enough to grow my fingernails without bamboo shoots under 'em. You can relax for now girlz....

Back to my day off & being chased around the house by earwigs. Think maybe I'll just go outside & putter in the yard until BG gets home to fight them off!
