Does visiting my parents count as a vacation? We’re visiting beautiful Lake of the Woods, more specifically Kenora, Ontario. The kids are having a ball. They get so used to suburban living that it’s nice for them to enjoy simple pleasures such as fishing and swimming in a lake.

It’s not the magic that has me hooked, it’s the emotions of the books. It fascinates me to see the characters mature. The Half Blood Prince movie really emphasizes this.

The books are way better than the movies (isn’t that always the case though) however HP6 was a fabulous movie. I might go see it again (and again, and again…).

I complain. A LOT. I likely com accross as a whiner sometimes. It’s all talk though, because i really am happy on the inside.

That is my major flaw.

What’s yours?

Someone hit this site recently by searching the term ‘Strep A Pneumonia’. This is a nasty thing to get so to be searching it they must be going through a very rough time with someone they love (the person having it would be WAY to sick to search for it themselves).

I think we should all spare a few thoughts for this random stranger.

Am I the only one that feels this way?

Now that my baby making days are over it feels like a huge waste of time when my friend Aunt Flo comes back to visit.
