Time Time Ticking....in my head

so after a rather active dream night *glares at the VHM* I awoke to someone talking about water in eyelashes and things needing to be turned on or off.

I made a huge diner like breakfast - - complete with things cooked in bacon grease and the poor attitude.  But man, that coffee was HOT.  We launched into our day, both with lists of things to do -- yet confident all would be accomplished by day's end.

Dad Report: Poppa was grooving right along.  We had a short talk about his hearing aids - he informed me that he didn't really care what people said, he found they did not work with the phone.  When I mentioned we had all been asked by the audiologist to remind him to leave them in, he said "well, you've reminded me..."  And we left it at that.  We talked a bit about the habits of squirrels, until he tired of the subject.  Moved on to habits of his Dad -- related to shopping.  Talked about Salt Spring Island and his Dad and Mom's home there, which he now believes he has never been too.  We talked about my trips out to Salt Spring and how Dad was there with me on some of them - but he has no memory of that.  It was a good conversation.

I tackled the grocery shopping and the VHM tackled a major reorganization of the upstairs, basement, and green room -- because we can never just deal with one room at a time.   I joined him after I returned, and then fixed some food.  Back to work for a bit - and then we ventured out to do our annual trip to shop for stocking stuffers -- he was terribly preoccupied (the weight of being a man with much to do and not enough time to do it all in).  Somewhere along the ride tonight-- I became sad.  I am quite sure it has more to do with hormonal ups and down than anything else -- but I am also sure it's a bit due to the season and a bit due to the fact that I too never feel like there's enough time. 

Since I didn't get to Etsy during the day - I worked on it tonight.  Now it's almost 11pm which is just ridiculous and I feel like I never got any leisure time today.  BLEH.

These pictures kinda suck - the cards are way prettier!  To the right of this blog is a link to the Etsy site...

This is the boy-o's and girl's little brother - he's a pip; and perhaps one of my favorite little kids ever.  I think this is when he was 2? He's six now.

Yah.  I am done.
