What A Day

Poor Julie... her beloved hamster Gabriella died tonight. Julie is heartbroken and I am so sad for her. We knew she wasn't well and that this time was coming fast. Jules went up to feed her and play with her before bed and found her. We'll bury Gabriella this weekend, along with Sam's deceased hamster and our bird that passed in July. Currently they are in our downstairs freezer.

Yes. We have dead pets in our freezer.

Yes. I am aware that is kind of creepy.

In other happier news, Sam made the Cross Country Team today! We are so proud of him and he is so excited. He doesn't get this athleticism from me, let me tell you. That, and his intelligence, he gets from his dad.

His incredibly good looks come from me.

Of course. ;-)

Tomorrow is the Terry Fox Walk-a-Thon at the children's school.

Julie doesn't want to participate in it because it will make her legs tired.

Oh Terry... I hope you didn't hear her say that...

That's all I feel like talking about tonight. The girls at Girls Club wiped me out and I am off to read more of my phenomenal book called Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers. It's such a beautiful story.

Over and out.

  3. Thanks for the comment on my blog! My husband is Canadian, he's from Belleville. We met at college in Barrie, ON. Not sure what part of Canada you're in, but I have a true love for Canadians!
