work out of control today and then piano lessons for DD across town late this evening!!! I hope I have more time for me tomorrow. Feeling over stimulated and under-fed (didn't eat enough today and that's always a recipe for disaster if it continues)! Going to get my brows tidied tomorrow morning and hairdresser therapy over the lunch hour! TGIF tomorrow. I will attend a book launch with my hubby on Sunday - it's for one of his friends who just got published and I really don't feel like going but I will go to accompany my hubby / support his friend. My sister is tagging along with me so that may lighten the experience. There will be a reception with food but I know I will not partake since the food at these events are always carb laden and best avoided for me. Yawn .. going to bed.... grateful for my blessings! Goodnight. Yawn and stretch and headache.

An interesting thing happened this long weekend that I forgot to journal ... TOM has been away for so long and then .. there it was! I didn't miss it ... wish it had stayed away! Of course, it comes with all the other monthly nonsense ... bloating, irritability, pain, .... you ladies know what I mean!
Oh well ... cie la vie! Waiting for it to go away. Busy beaver again today - getting a lot of work done and feel really focused today. I received my first pay-cheque from the company last Friday - felt good! I hope you are all doing well. Unfortunately, my daughter is still at home and working at keeping on top of school. Hope everyone is doing well. Be golden.

Slept in and took it easy today. Doing almost nothing at all except reading A book by Malcolm Gladwell and watching TV (BBC - I love British shows) in between. I didn't weigh today - actually, I forgot! But that's OK... I weighed yesterday. I lost 1 lb. It's warmer today but I won't be going outside. I am hoping that my daughter gets to go back to school next week - it's been a month since her high school teachers were on strike. It's very disheartening. I am still considering whether or not to transfer her to Catholic Secondary School ... I just don't want to play around with her education since the next two years are crucial for her university intentions.
On another front, we are checking into undertaking a MAJOR renovation at my mother's house. It is closer to the city and at a perfect location for everything - while, still having privacy and green space on her corner lot. The plan is to do an extensive renovation on the house and turn it into a 5 bedroom, four bathroom, two story brick house. My mother is getting older (she's 77 years old now) and we want to ensure she has all the creature comforts she needs. My youngest sister is also planning to move-in but needs some more space. We are creating a new space for Mom with a very large bedroom, walk-in closet and large ensuite on the main floor. The only other rooms on the main floor will be living, dining room, powder room and kitchen. The basement will be converted to a family room, large guest bedroom and bathroom. The second floor will have 3 bedrooms, an office and 2 bathrooms. The yard will be re-landscaped (mom loves her gardening) and the current garage will be rebuilt. It is a major undertaking so we are interviewing only well known, proven contractors including the Holmes on Homes folks (for those people who watch the show on Canadian TV). We have some quotes already - it's like building a brand new house so the quotes are quite a few hundred thousand dollars. The plan is to start the basement this year and possibly the main floor - hoping to be finished that part in six to eight months. The second floor will be next year! I shudder to think of how disruptive it will be for mom since when I did my kitchen only - my life was in disarray for some time. Anyway, it is the best way to go right now and my mother is happy. She wants her dream kitchen so she will get it - she's an avid baker and cook! Also, she won't have to do a lot of stairs being on the main floor.
Anyway, I am enjoying my long weekend so far - I hope you all are enjoying your Saturday. Be golden.

So busssssy I did not get a chance to update my journal this morning! Right now I am feeling very lazy because I stuffed my face.
I did not eat until about 4:30 pm today because I was running around getting our pottery from my daughter's birthday pottery making event, picking up some Summer items from a Danish store about 30 minutes away, gassing up the car, getting groceries for the long weekend - and that was after putting in a good several hours of work writing a product offering my company plans to post. I found some Devonshire Cream in the specialty section of my grocery store and I couldn't wait to have it with blackberries this evening. So, after I had 2 pieces of BBQ chicken legs, I made myself a cup of English Breakfast tea and had my berries/cream. So rich, so good - decadence at it's best. I should have stopped eating when I was full but there were about 4 berries left with cream on it and I could not, would not, throw it out - so I ate it. Hence, I feel like a butterball turkey, stuffed and dressed for Thanksgiving. The good thing is that this is all low carb/high fat. The bad thing is that I broke the rule of eating only until you are full. :(
This is a long weekend in Toronto and it kicks off cottage season. It's also the weekend when people typically set up their garden for the Summer. Unfortunately, the weather is rainy and we expect Thunderstorms on Monday so the fireworks may be cancelled. I plan to kick off my garden but let's see how it goes. I bought some outdoor rugs for our back patio but I may not use it this weekend. I think I will do some indoor sprucing up!
Anyway, have a great weekend all!
