This is my Chihuahua X I may have to pass her along which is hard for me to do as she is the sweetest dog I know.
She was rescued from a fire and has no issue with kids. She is a loving dog and needs lots of love too. I and currently trying to find a way to place an adoption form on my site that can be downloaded and filed out. Until then I thought I would post a pic of her.
Just a random thought passed my mind. Wonder if Canada does a Mommy Makeover.
Never heard of it?
Well then. Its a cosmetic surgery combo deal. For women who have gone through it all! Tummy tuck, breast lift and plump you can even through in a lift else where.
I am considering it. It would be a long way off and even if I did get it done I would be old. In my eyes what is the point other than for self esteem, not having to wince each time an arm picks up wind. Ir having dreams of my daughter using my arm wings like a trampoline?
Either way I am sure its the price of a very nice car and like I was saying whats it like having the stiched together body of a 20 year old when you are perhaps 40?
Do the other elderly ladies spread racy rumors about you at the public pool?
Is it worth it? Have I along with society gone mad. There are greater things at steak opps I mean hand.Its not like I am a piece of meat altogether.
And waste a week of my time argg!!!!
I bought the Graco ‘imonitor vibe’ this week. Tax included it was $100.00. No tissue’s included for the nose bleed.
What made it stand out was the 2000 feet range. “Wow!” I thought, “I can go to the storage room/car/gym without packing for a pilgrimage.”
On the package is a peaceful pink and rosy child having beautiful dreams. Across her head it in capitals screams DIGITAL. It must me the one for me.
When I get it home after a day of charging both appliances monitor and walking parental unit, I couldn’t make it down the hallway of my apartment building without the sound cutting out. If you have an apartment built in the last 200 years this piece of plastic is a true waste of money.
My sister says she bought the ‘Safety first’ brand baby monitor.She also lives in an apartment block with the usual interferences of non Amish proportions i.e TV, phone, concrete (to think how far we have come) and her packaging read monitor has a rage of 300 feet…
So I thought I would warn you all.
Oh and just to mention what pushed me toward buying this particular brand, on the monitor itself there is a sticker that proudly announces it is ‘mom tested’ this is a review from Parenting magazine. Well la-di DA! I guess those moms have some morning cocktails rice paper houses.
P.S I wasn’t paid to say this. Although I wouldn’t mind.
See attached Barf Bag
I was just about 8 months pregnant when my older sister turned to me with squinty eye,switching to her power-yoga-new-age-healy-meditation- voice and addressed me by name.
In hushed tone she said “Younger sister, you will fall in love (voice hovering, almost breaking on that word) like you never have before with your child.”
My sister is prone to grand statements, at-home-drinking and attention seeking so I tried to bite my tongue and not to retort with commentary on her lack of dating. She also knew full well that using that tone gets a blank faced Gen-X (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_X) no where stare from me.And to truly take in her gift wrapped wisdom I had to summon my all.
First thoughts on the brain storm;Gross. That has to be the creepiest thing she could have said.
Turns its could be true. I have analysed the data; from hair smelling, to gazing lovingly for hours and it seems that I do adore my spawn.
In normal people talk. My daughter is the center of my world next to the Universal Life Force people so aptly call God.
She is patient, always happy, Divine, smells nice, doesn’t cry unnecessarily, curious, funny,smart I could go on.
Perhaps I do love her ‘like I have never loved before’. I will put her before my partner I certainly hope if it ever comes to that. I will put her first in all cases unless I fall short which I am only human for.
Is it wrong to love so much?
I see, that love, my sister fore shadowed with her shower practiced voice. And,I don’t know if it ever wears off. I think I would like to see her in this light forever.I know its about time to barf for all.
Will it change? I know it will for her.
baby high chair
I know the superwoman she sees before her will become human and flawed and then one day maybe understood, and perhaps forgiven.
However, I hesitate to think I could ever love a human being as intensely as I do my daughter.
She has given me more impetus for growth creativity, optimism , learning.
And yet, as a mother stereotypically in society it is time to perhaps ‘let go’ give up and devote ones self solely to the purpose of martyrdom and cookie making. Or as Martha Steward, did, money laundering. God bless her crafty heart.
In some ways this is true, some old bad habits do die and one does pick up the proverbile knitting neddles.
Unless some unknowing generation find them again and think its all cool,mod or/&hip and rehash them despite people suffering with SEVERE forms of PTSD http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posttraumatic_stress_disorder because of that decade being part of their youth.
In other ways I believe as mothers, (even if that includes soley a father) at times, we have come a far way in our undertanding of the relationship that we have with our tribe, what it means and how we understand ourselves in relation to that. Sometimes it seems all we are left with is to continue pushing out the borders that constrict and pulling in the ones that inflict.
Motherhood gives more drive for life and realisation of how amazing it is, here’s to Emma Goldman. You old bag!

Being a Parent is like waking up one day and being asked “Would you like to be God?”
My response was an obvious no brainer(HAR-HAR).
Being God, so to speak is no less shocking, challenging or flattering all at once of a position to be in just as soon as the question was raised or even answered for that matter.
And all the sickly sweet cliches about babies are true right down to their eyelashes being adorable, and them changing how you think and feel. And why shouldn’t nature hook you up to a giant hormone drip of love for the event that eventually mean your secession, graceful or not.
However some stereotypes I discovered are false. Babies don’t make you a brainless puddle of babbling idiocy. If they do you once were originally and it probably won’t make much difference.
Babies also don’t make you desperate, clingy or needy for random men or child support from random men.
Nor do children make you unattractive for that matter.
Yet, as my grandfather told my mother when she was younger “boys make you fat”. If you don’t get it, you will.
However raising a child does take all the effort people boast of and more, a community.

Thank you to the people that have registered to my blog.
As I am a wordpress novice I have yet to learn the bells and whistles. Let alone the theme changing. Which I am sooo ready to do.
This year really started off with a bang didn’t it? A new president that is black or African American or Indonesian or all of the above. Either way it was a first. “Yes we can!” was his pitch and ‘yes he did’ get voted in.
He did one thing he said he would. He stopped all trials at Guantanamo Bay and ordered for its closure. Hooray! For liberty.
Well up here in North America I think we are on our 15th shooting in two weeks (According to The Sun Newspaper). Yehaaa! We too are the wild west just like our American brothers and sisters.
I liked contraversal Michael Moores take on violence. After the Columbine High School shooting spree he went to ‘Lockheed Martin’ The worlds largest weapons Maker. He interviewed the PR in the town that employees many of the parents to the kids in Columbine High. The rep had no idea why the children had resorted to violence.
??????
At this point you want to beat your head with a stale piece of bread. How we raise children is how they act. No?
In any case Obama has now gone back on his word and deployed 17,000 soldiers to Afghanistan. Yes he can!
I didn’t want to believe it myself but we are all being touched by a harsher economic climate and as a result I truly believe people are suffering.
I witnessed the tail end of a suicide at my sky train station yesterday and if it wasn’t for a person who commented on the recent amount of death in Vancouver I would had just have brushed it off as the usual.
Not to be cruel but a lot of people seem drawn to that sky train stop and Main ST, for life’s end. I am not too sure if it is for the exposure or in general the demographic is on average poorer (therefore may find life sucks more)?
If anything it re-enforced my belief that we need a stronger health care system. No only in medication but in human concern.
I know doctors are cut and dry types these days and aren’t prone to midnight calls like they used too. However I really think a new branch of government funded alternative health care is needed for what is about to be a rash of very depressed people. (A) because they lost their job (B) Because they have one and are barely managing mentally, physically, spiritually. (C) Why the hell not - exotic health care for all!
But hey, it isn’t all doom and gloom Mc Donald’s has Double Cheese Burgers for just $1.39 and thats ok with me.
