a bit discouraged

Alright so this week I had a to do list, I had no rush on my to do list and as long as I worked on a task a time I was happy. My task's are almost ALL done!!!! yes here is my list now
TO DO
-Potty train Mason
-Get Drivers (I picked up all info from AMA so almost there)
-Find winter pants (need to be Columbia)
Yup that is all that is left.... I am going to add
-Do Laundry
onto the list as it's a task I need to keep on top of, Andy usually comes home from a busy day and does it and he shouldn't have too.

So Im doing awsoem and feel great right......... WRONG I feell bloated I have broken out in zits and actually have gained 2 Lbs! What the heck is this all about. Yes I am feeling a little more then discouraged but I will continue on, pizza face or not.

NEW SUBJECT

Friday was a special night, my friend lou turned 40 and we all decided to throw her a suprise party. I will honestly say I rarely cry EVER but I bawled like a baby seeing her reaction. Lou is the kindest most sinser caring person ever, she cares about people and goes the distance so everyone feels special. Lou takes the time to get to know you and takes you for who you are.



So yes that was my Friday (the best in a long time). I stuck to cranberry juice though did have a couple jello shooters so ADMIT to a little slip.

Saturday we went to town for our normal shop only this time the roads were starting to get shut down due to the massive blizzard, Yes it's bad and I shouldn't have insisted we go to town but we made it there and back thankfully. Walking from the car to the house was the worst you couldn't see or breath and only had like 20 steps to take! We carried the boys in and have stayed in ever since.  If you look at the picture below can you spot the snow slower right in front the house....
Yup there is a snow plow in there but it's THAT bad and hasn't stopped. I have learnt hockey is definatly a massive part of my life though as we are warned not to leave the house and I will be trekking out soon for hockey with alot of the other girls who are determined too.

Will leave you with a picture of the week for me.


Oh how could I forget to tell you!!!! I had two interviews for more kids on Thursday and I now will have Serena, Mason and Mason in the mornings and Ethan, Caleb, Mason, Alex and James at night!!!! WAHOO. This means alot to me as I finally have my own money and am supporting the family. I have decided how my money will be dished out as well already. 50% of my monthly wage will go to vacation money and 50% will go to saving for when we go back to Uk as we will not get paid as much as we do here. I am mega excited about this and cannot wait for my first family holiday!!!!!
