"Subway"

Clearly my blog hasn't been visited by many people so that is why I have not updated it. I'm a little bit bored because I don't know what to write. Life is pretty boring right now. This morning as I was checking my e-mail Tanner says to me " look, it says Subway". When I turned around, he had spelt the word "subway" with his letters! What a smart kid I have. It's blizzarding here (if that's a word, I don't know) and so we are having a day inside. I didn't even know that it was a blizzard out until Matt called and said that there was no school for all the school division because of the blizzard. So, it's catch up on rest day. I am really tired this week for some strange reason. I've even been going to bed pretty quickly after work. Usually it takes me about 45 minutes to wind down, but this week it's been about 20-30 minutes and I'm out. Maybe because I'm running 4 days a week....who knows. Work is going good. They hired a new girl who starts next week. About half the girls that work there now are quitting because they are in grade 12 and graduating. So we will have a new crop of people to work with.

I have been walking tanner to and from school and it has been helping quite a bit for him not yelling and screaming and not obeying. It helps him to play better at home and works up his appetite so he doen't complain about what I offer him. He can be such a carb freak...lol

So in honor of Valentines day, here's a little valentines day something

L-love of my life, Matt and Tanner

O-outstanding friends like Jamie, Sharon, Suzanne, Erica, Trish, and Meghan who have been my closest friends and confidants for as long as I've known each of them.

V-very wonderful family who is so fun to be with...most of the time. Family who supports us and cares for us.

E-excellent friendships and friendships that are developing into more than "face" value friendships...if that makes sense. E is also for my middle name, Elaine, who I am named after and who I love very much.

There are lots of things I could put there but those are the ones that came to me at this moment of doing this.
