Fill In The Blank Friday – 11/04

1.   My favorite thing about this week was/is  still to come…I’m not sure what relationship we are to eachother now but she’s still and will always be part of our family…my ex’s older daughter (and therefore my kids’ older sister) is coming to visit just us, for the first time since her father and I split up almost 2 years ago. We are REALLY looking forward to the visit!

2.   Colder weather makes me pull out the slow cooker and start cooking “properly” again.  Gotta love harvest time!

3.  Three things that make me terribly happy as of late are

• The constant improvement in development my son is experiencing in IBI
• My daughter’s excitement in being in French Immersion and joining lots of clubs at school
• My man – sappy, I know but it’s true

4. If I could only wear one kind of shoe for the rest of my life, I’d choose  my slip-on runners…but I would properly and forever mourn my 3” heels, desperately wishing I could wear them again but, when I have 6 year old twins to chase after, runners it is. Ugh, this question hurts.

5.  My personality type is ENTP, through and through, however there were some years where I seemed to flip between ENTP and ENTJ. At least the “ENT” part remained the same.  

6.  I have a serious problem resisting my Starbucks chai latter, and also leaving Jalapeno Cheddar Doritos in the store. I’m getting better but they just call my name when I walk by them in the grocery store.  I must be strong…

7.  My favorite colour to wear is  black shirt and dark blue jeans…very depressing I know, and it’s such a “mom uniform”. I also like wearing browns and greens too – look great on redheads.

 

30 Days About Me: Day 10 – Photos Over Time

Day 10- A Photo Taken Over 10 Years Ago of You & A Current One

Photo of a girlfriend of mine and I at her 10 year highschool reunion.  She and (then) her boyfriend went to school with my boyfriend at the time, so we all went together.  She’s having her 20th highschool reunion – where does the time go?

 

 

 

 

 

This pic was taken 4 years ago I think (ironically, by my man, long before he became my man):

 

 

 

 

 

This one was taken over the summer of my man and I, at a girlfriend of mine’s wedding:

 

 

 

 

 

I’m told that I haven’t changed much, but I’ll let you be the judge. Interestingly, when I was in my marriage, people didn’t see the age difference between my ex-husband and I (14 years)…question is, is that an insult to me or a compliment to him?   Since getting out of my marriage, people have been guessing my age as 6 or 7 years younger than I actually am.  Go figure.
