Answers from my soon to be 6 year old...

Don't change horses	you might fall off the other one.
Strike while the	tiger is running bases
It's always darkest before	the sun is up
Never underestimate the power of	galaxies
You can lead a horse to water but	it might walk away
Don't bite the hand that	a tiger bit
No news is	no news
A miss is as good as a	hit
You can't teach an old dog new	tricks
If you lie down with dogs, you'll	get dog drool
Love all, trust	that everything’s happy
The pen is mightier than the	dog bite
An idle mind is	a mind
Where there's smoke there's	fire
Happy the bride who	is married
A penny saved is	a penny saved
Two's company, three's	perfect
Don't put off till tomorrow what	you do tomorrow
Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and	you tears will sweating
There are none so blind as	a pig
Children should be seen and not	be at home, they should be at school
If at first you don't succeed	try again
You get out of something only what you	get
When the blind lead the blind	they'll get split up.
A bird in the hand	is a bird.

Personal Penguin

So I haven't been in here much since I started a new job this week. After being home and just working part-time for the past 8 years, I stumbled upon a job just up the road. Needless to say, I'm tired and miss my little Lulu but I'm doing ok. The job so far is kick ass!!! Can you believe they play a game at morning break where you can win money, products, gift cards, time off, beer, wine.....and they have a wonderful morning snack provided for you which includes (so far) fruits, veg and dip, nuts, cookies, popcorn, chocolate almonds. Who does this? I've never heard of a company doing anything like this before. Maybe I would have stuck around longer had the past places treated their workers as nice. I really like the job so far, the people seems good. Of course there will always be 'office politics' to deal with but you get that anywhere.

I got a call today from Bisque it and our ceramic pieces are ready for pick up! We can't wait to see them and will post a photo of the finished product on the weekend.

Well, as I head off to sleep, I hear Lucy's radio playing Personal Penguin....
it's her bedtime song, sung by Davey Jones (of the Monkeys). You think that's bad enough...well it's on REPEAT. God forbid you turn it off and she wakes up during the night. So on that note goodnight!

Knit a Square

Just found this site while stumbling... I think I'll give it a go!

Ceramics!

Today, Lucy and I drove to Vaughan and went to this great ceramic studio called Bisque it. Since it is my last Friday with Lucy before I work full-time I wanted to do something fun together. She was so excited, telling Brock last night what we were going to be doing.

Once we arrived, we got to choose from their array of items. Lucy picked a cat and asked me if I would paint a cat bank for her. They had so much to choose from but Lucy made it easy for me. She was so into painting and took her time applying the second and third coats of paint, I was so proud! Of course she didn't want the standard cat, it had to be rainbow! Here are the before shots, next week I will post the after. We can't wait to go and pick up our pieces of art!

Listening to: City And Colour - I Don't Need To Know

City and Colour

So I haven't written in almost a week, mostly because I've been sick with bronchitis so I've been spending my days listening to music or sleeping. Anyways, the new City and Colour album is defo worth checking out. It's a beautiful acoustic album and it's Canadian! Dallas Greens' voice is frigging awesome! He's got great tats to boot, how can you not love him!
