It's easier to fly almost any where else in the world!

Getting to the states is easy peasy.

Betting back used to be the bitch. The longest I have ever had to wait to get into canada was almost 4 hours.

The longest it has ever taken to get into the states took about 45 minutes, and that was with a terrorist stop in immigration.. hahaha

Well, you see, I'm still American so it's an American returning home...horse of a different colour.

I'm disappointed in my son. He was stealing from his dad and blaming a friend who is a bad influence for it. His conscience finally kicked in and he came clean to me last night and his dad this morning. *sigh* I thought I was doing a good job .

Any way, he and I talked last night and he's been reassured I still love him--I can love HIM without loving the actions. He's going to church this morning and going to talk to his minister and then he has to go and face the music with his dad *sigh*. I'm disappointed, upset, confused....trying to figure what's going on with him and help him through his own problems and emotions with this.

I have a regular weekly date night with myself! It's even written into my calendar! I am free, obviously, to change those plans but those who know me know that Friday nights from 6:30 to about 9:30 are MY time to myself.

Yes, he did and I'm going to make sure he knows that that IS a good thing.

Had a lovely time with two new friends! I don't have enough friends in my life and it's so good to connect with new people.

eating breakfast, drinking coffee, about to clear off some housework, cruising email and forums and waiting for lunch time when Possibility will be here for a few hours! WOOT!

After a late night/ early morning of cuddling with my guys, I'm feeling pretty good. Getting ready to tackle a few loads of laundry before the clam bake at my mother-in-law's and trying to think of a polite way to remind her that I only like my clams deep fried. *crinkles up nose at the idea of rubbery clams*

[Ariakas]

I am fried.. I have been talking since today at 11am.. had a good lunch meeting, a coffee with a friend and then dinner with an older friend..

My throat hurts.. hahaha

Day started at 4:30 but I am sooo looking forward to how this week unfolds. Its going to be a good week for me I think

Now working on a proposal which is due at 8am.. *yawn*... I love my job... seriously..
