    Brag post

    I have lost 2.5kg (5.6 lbs for you non-metric folk) since the last time I was weighed at the Dr.’s office! Sa-weeet!! I know summer is what is to “blame” because I always lose my winter insulation and I’m outside so much more. The weather has been gorgeous so between all the walks and playing with E it’s working. I will say I also went biking for the first time in years last week and it was nice. But the seat on J’s bike is not so nice. Ouch.

    My son, the hobo

    Ok, not so much really. But honestly, it looks like it. He is loved. He is cared for. He is the best thing since sliced bread.

I will admit there is a time and a place for them (i.e. Men in suits, etc) but it doesn’t mean I have to like them. But you are probably wondering why that involves me hating summer. Well, the 2 are interconnected. J wears black socks to work because he has to wear stinky steel toes.  Especially ripe in the summer months. But pretty much as soon as he gets home, off come the socks. Understandably so I must admit.…

    Nothing like a little child labour

    to do my garden some good. Never too young to work for his keep I say! It’ll put hair on his chest. This I’m sure. He loves “helping” me garden. I’m glad he’s not afraid to get his hands dirty. 🙂 On July 5th my garden needed a little tlc. Well not much, just needed to loosen soil and pluck off dead blossoms. Somehow my garden doesn’t get weeds. *knock on wood* so it’s pretty low maitenance. As you can see my garden is flourishing this summer. Although my little yellow dahlia is a little behind the 8-ball but now, a week later, it’s almost doubled in size. I really…
