A Few Childless Eccentricities




Time to go get our kiddies from camp!

 A few memorable highlights of our time as a couple over the last days:


-Sleeping a lot. Often. Forever

 -Sleeping in really weird places. As in on my new floating dock in my gazebo on the water (yay!) but on the coldest night of the week. As in 9 degrees and four blankets and socks and long pjs and even hats. My husband must truly love me to agree to this. Funny thing in is that we slept so well and even had a frog come under the deck and croak really loudly. Loved that!

 -My husband says I am a hypocrite because weather does matter to meL(( I bitched for a day and a half about the crappy weather we had a good part of the time so far up here. Ok..ok..so maybe weather matters to me when my kids aren’t here..or on vacation…or in summer…ok ok! I cant always be happy it is stormy and rainy and cloudy bc of the name of my blog can I?
-We beat our record and had dinner one night at 11:45pm!!!!! That is just plain stupid isn’t it? And it was a big deal too-not just a piece of toast. Beef stroganoff, parsley salad and bread and dessert  too. Weird-we  are weird.

-Swimming in the freezing lake..and then jumping in the hot Jacuzzi. Sitting outside on the dock with our white fluffy robes; eating vinegar chips, drinking iced tea, watching movies from our laptop cuddling on the Bali bed; falling asleep literally everywhere we can. Buying the yummiest food on earth at Loblaws. Cinnomon bun in morning and baguette and smelly cheese at Happy Hour.

 -Having big fights! More and more it seems..and over stupidities too. Can’t seem to agree on some major upcoming decisions-which are unusual for us. Oh well at least we agree on the kids. I hope my very religious neighbors still like me even after I screamed "F...!" across the yard and lake more than once.

 -Planning all our future vacations and where we want to go in this world (we change our minds a lot). Counting the years left where we still have our kids wanting to be with us and ensuring we make the best of every momentJ
-Reading everything there is to read. Learning a ton about teenagers. And steamy sexy romances too!


It’s been wonderful. I love Trent I honestely can't imagine a place we would be happier taking our summer vacation. I love time alone. Can’t wait to get back those sweeties now for part 2.
