Guelph Girls

So ... another weekend draws to a close. It's been a good one ... a tad chilly what with the furnace acting up again ... but when there's enough people around ... the bodies create extra warmth or then again, maybe we're just so busy having fun that we don't notice the chill.

Maija slept over Friday night ... we watched the Squeakal for awhile ... but she wasn't as impressed or as engrossed as she was for the first. I guess even at 3 sequels aren't half as good as the first!! At some point around 11 PM, we invented a version of air hockey played on a white erase board ... and then came some pretty silly lullaby versions of "Hush little baby don't say a word ... Ginga's going to buy you a mockingbird ..." ... we had porcupines and kitty cats and balloons and all kinds of strange new words.

Got her to ballet on time Saturday morning ... Stefani spent the afternoon at Nico's house ... and I caught up on the laundry ... AND brought the library books back to their rightful home!

Today ... Nicole and Laura came down from Guelph. Nic cut Mel's hair ... and then gave Laura highlights and I cooked enough food for an army. Lucky Nic went home with tortilla soup, chicken, pork roast and half the liquor from our over-stocked, under-used supply!

Stefani got her Canada presentation done ... hope she gets a good mark, she certainly worked hard enough! Kyla and Stef just decided to walk to the corner store for some snacks ... gotta nibble on something as we watch the Grammy's.

Oh and yeah ... Stef got a callback tomorrow for that bread product / guitar hero commercial :)

Time surely does fly

Already Friday ... where does the time go? It gets burnt up through all those everyday ordinary tasks ... laundry, housekeeping, cooking, working for $ ... it's a wonder that more of us don't wake up on retirement day wondering where the F$&%k our lives went ...

It's really cold today ... -20 ... brrrrr ... makes hibernation seem like a good idea. There's not even any snow so I can't fool myself into thinking that I love winter by doing something "winter-like".

Maija's coming over for a sleep-over tonight ... we're going to watch the new Alvin & The Chipmunks movie. Kyla's over for the weekend as well. And unless plans change, Nic's coming down from Guelph with her roommate Laura on Sunday. Should be a great weekend!

Stef had a last minute audition yesterday ... for a US commercial. For a bread product ... but the commercial has a "Guitar Hero" theme. Hoping for a callback at least ... we'll see.

Gotta' get that Fan Page up for her ... as well as MySpace or a website via Casting Workbook. But waiting on the final decision re headshot from her agent.

Okay ... time to get some work done! (BTW - library books still have not made it back!)
