AWESOME and Amazing. I am still loving it.
It has been a long time since I liked a movie this much. So Die hard like. It didn't have as much profanity as the usually Die Hard's but he still did his trademark line.
It was a perfect amount of cheese and unrealistic special effects - I love, love, loved it...

Busy little bee
I feel so busy lately but also kinda bored. We have been doing home reno and now we are helping out others with home reno. I get kinda annoyed by people that want to do their own updating but don't look into anything. They just expect you to come over and show them everything ... or more like do everything for them.
My new brother-in-law is very much like that. He can't even stain a fence by himself. He has to convince everyone to come over to help him. I know that he always provides food and drinks but he takes away from our only time off because he is too lazy to do it himself. Plus he never has the right tools or products. I mean it will take some time to stain a fence but if you have a sprayer it will go a lot faster. If you also calculate how much fence you have - both sides- then you will know how much stain to get and not have to run out in the middle because you only bought one can.
He is kinda a pain in my side with his laziness. They have a brand new single family home and he wants to finish the basement. So he calls up Mr. Spaghettibender and tells him that it will only cost him a couple of hundred dollars. Come on. Do what are you thinking. So hubby gets him (while on the phone) to measure the amount of space he needs to add insulation, vapour barrier and drywall. Then hubby tells him approx. what a bag of insulation cost and what it covers and the same with drywall. He still doesn't understand how to do the calculations so hubs does it for him. In the end he is shocked by the cost. What the hell did you think. Take some time and do some research instead of playing video games - how old are we!
= ) done
This weekend is Canada Day and I really just wanted to relax with one couple maybe two but that isn't going to happen. We are going to a BBQ/ pool party. I have to admit my body is no longer in the greatest shape. I really have to watch my calorie intake and exercise more. I thought biking home from work would do it but it isn't. I am not heavy on calories but lately there have been bags of chips and pop consumed. Some time that is all that is consumed but still I really need to crack a whip on this ass. Today won't be any better. I am currently eating a store bought apple and oatmeal muffin the size of a small kids pool and a coffee which is 'sugarly delicious'. Then at lunch it will be a slice of DQ treatzz pizza ... a cheap version of a DQ cake.
Oh I need to get back on the horse soon. How much is liposuction?

So Sad
Yesterday we took a drive up to visit my Aunt who has been put in to palliative care due to cancer. She is too weak to fight it off with Chemo so they have stopped all treatments. They actually asked her if she wanted to be resuscitated? Why ask that - give her a questionnaire maybe but don't tell the woman "hey there's nothing else we can do for you and by the way do you want us to resuscitate you if you code?" Crazy people.
I had seen her since she stopped Chemo but Mr. Spaghettibender and I needed to visit my uncle as well. So off we went for our road trip. When we arrived at the quaint little hospital was uncle of draped over the side of the hospital bed shaking his head. My heart sunk! He then motioned for us to come in. Normally you have to put on a mask but he said no. In we went with me holding my breathe. She looked awful. She didn't look like she was with us. My uncle proceeded to tell me she had a seizure and hasn't come out of it yet. They never said coma but that is what it looked like. My uncle was rubbing her hand telling her to wake up and see who is here to visit her. He keep saying "Come on wake up now" in this soft caring voice. I lost it and left the room.
After composing myself I went back in the room and asked my uncle how long she had been like this. He said the hospital called him at 11am to get him to come up because she hadn't woken up yet. So we watched my uncle try and wake my aunt up. He then asked me to talk to her and try and wake her up. So I did. I rubbed her hand and told her who I was and that I had brought her some donuts so she had to open her eyes and sit up to get one... I am not kidding but you then heard her take a deep breathe. We were shocked. Again I started to cry. Then she slowly moved a bit. Some time passed and then she licked her lips. Some more time passed and then she moved her hands to her face. Eventually when my uncle asked for the millionth time is she was going to wake up she said "leave me alone". The man was beaming from ear to ear. She was waking up. It took a little bit longer and eventually she was awake and wanting a donut. = )
I have to say after that I was very tired.
I can only hope that Mr. Spaghettibender loves me that much.

sleepy ... so sleepy!
I couldn't take it last night. Mr. Spaghettibender was up working on his letter of intent to go with his university application and all I could hear was the stupid computer mouse clicking and then him scribbling. I swear to god I almost when in and unplugged the computer. So finally at 12am I said - enough, turn off the computer.
So he then get ready for bed and hops in with his cold feet. That was fine but his twitching was driving me crazy. I took a blanket and went out to sleep on the couch. It is now 1am and the alarm is set for 5:30 ... great!
My eyes are so scratchy, I have no ambition to work. I was hoping to go outside at lunch with my mat and take a nap at the park but it looks like rain. Hum, not such a great day unlike yesterday.
I biked home, mowed the front and some of the back lawn - until I ran out of gas. Then I washed the stones for our fireplace hearth. Then I got everything together to marinate the salmon. Then I checked my email and facebook = ) Then I decided to go outside and put a coat of paint on the window frames. All of this done by 7pm. Wow, so much accomplished. I really don't think I am going to come close to that today. Mew!

Go Sens Go ... oh no...
Although I don't watch hockey that much - I really only care about the fights. I have some weird obsession with hockey fights... they get me very excited. Why - I don't know. So last night I actually started to think the Sens were losing because I was watching. So I stopped watch... then they scored. I start watching again... the ducks score... I stop watching... you get the drift. But once overtime hit I went to bed. So you can't blame the Ducks win on me watching cause I was sleeping. = )
I have so much too do and I don't want to do any of it. I am so lazy. The bridal shower and hence 25 strangers are heading over to my house is less than two weeks. I have tons of stuff to do between now and then. The three main ones are the tiling of the front foyer, replacing the stones on the fireplace hearth and staining the deck. If this rain doesn't stop soon I have no idea when I will have time to sand the deck so I can stain it. Ahhhh!!!! I still have so much to do that stuff is just the tip of the iceberg!
Maybe instead of blogging I should make a detailed list... sounds like a plan!

Honestly what's with facebook
I think I was lucky and hit the facebook thing after many of my friends have already made themselves sick on it. I see there are a few stragglers that are poking me now but it has settled down.
That's good because Mr. Spaghettibender has started evening classes at the University and he doesn't need any distractions. I felt so sorry for him after his first night. He came home panicked and kept asking me what he got himself into. I know it is really hard to go back to school. Write an essay - what the hell is an essay??? I personally couldn't do any English classes if my life depended on it ... okay maybe if my life depended on it but I wouldn't enjoy it. The only bit of reading I get done is the blogs I frequent. = ) I know it is pathetic but I prefer to spend my downtime watching movies or TV. And I really don't have all that much downtime.
Right now our home reno projects are all over the map. We tried to focus on one area at a time but the tiles for the front foyer are on back order, so off we went to work on the bathroom. Things in their are stalled until we find a vanity. But we have to sink and countertop picked out so once we hurry up and find a vanity we will getter dun!
Although with Mr. Spaghettibender needing to spend his time on school, I'm not sure when. Don't get me wrong I can do some thing myself but I need 'us' to be okay with my choices.
So we will see what adventures we undertake this weekend... maybe I should start journaling our adventures... that sounds entertaining. Okay to me! ;)

Good girl
Since I finally caved and joined facebook I have become mildly addicted. I did find one of Mr. Spaghettibenders old friends and decided to surprise him with a special visit. So Saturday afternoon Mr. Spaghettibender thought our friends M. Bo and husband were stopping by but instead when he went to the door he was shocked... and I mean shocked to see his old bar hoping friend. He was like a deer caught in head lights... he was so confused for at least the first hour. I had to keep explaning that M.Bo wasn't coming over.
Oh it was a night full of reminiscing and updating life stories. I was so much fun and I was so happy that Mr. Spaghettibender was having such a good time.
So this is what being a good wife feels like =)
