snow snow go away

We woke up to at least 10"of snow this morning. At least we still had power, at least until about 10:30 or so then it was off until 6ish. Try explaining to your 2 year old that you're not being mean there is simply no power to watch Dora. Then she screamed at me for not turning the light on in the bathroom. Luckily, I have a 4x4 and my hubby, who got called into work this morning do to snowplowing, plowed us out on his way by (gotta love them job perks). It was nice to be able to get out and go when the girls were driving me crazy being cooped up. I bundled them up and we went to my mom and dad's house, which is close. My aunt and uncle are visiting for a few days and it's been a long time since I've visited with them.
While we were there my dd#2 had a nap and when she got up she was sitting on my lap and vomited all over me and herself. My aunt was right in there with the kitty litter. I had to go outside and rub snow on my pants to try and get the stuff off me. Then I still smelled awful so my aunt sprayed me with Febreeze.
I'm trying to plan my greenhouse. We are supposed to be building it this weekend but we'll see if the snow is gone by then. I'm doing a pvc hoop greenhouse that I found on http://www.albertahomegardening.com/how-to-build-an-inexpensive-hoop-style-greenhouse/ We already ordered the pvc and I'm so excited. Last year the garden was a dismal failure. We planted late because it was cold and then we got frost in June. So this year I was determined to do something different. I'm putting this right over my existing garden and I'm going to build a couple raised growing beds. My mom would like them to be about 36" high so she doesn't have to be on her knees. I have trouble with my knees too so I think that would be ideal. Also, it would keep the slugs out of the lettuce. EEEW!
Now I just have to figure out how to build the raised beds with minimal help and money. My hubby is already freaking out thinking this is going to be a greenhouse full of weeds. I'm scouring the web looking for a plan I like so we'll see. It should be cheap to fill. My sis works at a commercial greenhouse so I should be able to get the stuff I need at cost. Yay!
Well, here's hoping the snow stays away now. I just about killed myself shoveling snow off the trampoline this morning.

what a week!

Yeah I think I kinda missed a week. Whoops. Kept meaning to catch up the next day and then the next. But somehow it just didn't happen.
My hubby went away to work again. That always sends me on the spin cycle for a day or better until I just get too busy and tired for it to bother me. Then the girls and I get into a routine and he comes home and sometimes messes it up. But it is worth it. My dd#1 is really getting where she misses him. She'll say she just doesn't care about anything but you know she's missing someone. The little one doesn't really seem to care one way or another. She just gets mad when you don't let her have the phone when he calls. She says "allo" then she just smiles and doesn't say anything else. She is only 17 months old so you know. She has taken to screaming lately, about everything. High pitched and at the top of her lungs. It is driving me absolutely nuts.
The weather is so crazy here. Last week my girls were wearing their sundresses and this week they are wearing toques. It might even snow this weekend. I am hoping not. I guess we made it to Oct better than the snow we got in August last year. But still if it didn't snow til Dec my feelings would not be hurt.
I finally joined a site for bulimics. I have been this way for so long I don't even remember when it started. All I know is I need to recover. It's getting to be hard hiding it from my girls. I've been hiding it for years but it is time to get it done with. So hopefully I can. No wrong attitude. I will accomplish what I am setting out to do. I just need to start taking a little me time. A moment to relax at the end of the day. So I'm going to go do that right now. A bath, a book and a cup of tea. Then hope to heavens that the girls sleep through the night. Good night!
