Well Kayne's bedroom has really taken some shape over the last 2 weeks.. we have a new sub-floor on top of the super uneven cement floor that was out 2 inches! all of the crown moulding is painted and was hung today. The window molding an ledge shelf also went in today and will be trimmed out and stained during the next couple of days, I painted the bottom portion of the room so that when Kevin came home is was done so that he could get to it and do his fancy pants paint job :) We ordered the flooring in on Monday so it should be here (in town that is) by the 6th and then it ill just take an afternoon to have it installed...and then the baseboard molding will follow that... very soon very soon... hopefully the boy can be moved downstairs by the time Kevin goes back to work... we'll see :)

I will be sure to take some picks of his wicked awesome painting when it's all done ;)

Amanda gave me this great little daily calendar titled Little gifts of Kindness. It has a little quote or nice saying each day. Today's quote has caught my attention, As I have been invited to a spinning get together on Thursday. I would really like to attend but then thought that it might just be to much of a hassle to go and work out getting the kids organized after school (especially with Kayne having gym on Thursdays now at 3:30) But after flipping the calendar and seeing today's quote I do believe that I will do my best to make it work :)

"What tickles you inner artist? Set aside time to "tickle the artist inside"

So there it is I think the gods are speaking to me today as I haven't spun for well over a month and a half now.

Kayne's wanna-be bedroom has been coming along very well over the last two or so weeks. It has been really good ever since we got going on the bathroom and whilest Dean was working on the bathroom I took the time to empty out the wanna be bedroom. This is a different kinda room as it is L shaped. Measuring this room for flooring is fun... or not.
The entire length of the room is 16' 3", you would think that was a good measurement but uhm no not when it's combined with the top part of the L it just makes for a difficult room as the top part of the room is only 5'9" across.

We had a nice uneventful weekend here. Kayne and I went around to a couple of craft and pottery sales between here and courtenay and then I took him to Walmart  (to start but they didn't have what he was looking for) and Zellers so that he could buy himself a Lego set. He was pretty intent on what he wanted but neither store had what he was looking for so he opted for another largeish set. I figure if he is using his own money (he once had a paper route andstill has money in his account from that) I'm not a big fan of going out and buying ones-self stuff right before birthdays and christams but he says that he wantd to buy it and well what was I to say NO I want to!....so really he got a set that he wanted and is undestanding about saving and spending what you save way earlier than BIllie...as she isn't showing any signs yet of wanting to save.

They both went to Madagascar 2 on Saturday night...they said that it was great other than some random loud screacing sound right before the movie actually started. I was a nice mom and went by the theatre on my way top a craft sale and picked up their tickets for the evening, this was good b/c when we got their the line up was a long one....so my kidsjust strolled right on by everyone in line cause they had their tickets already. (highly recommend the getting tickets during the day for evening shows on opening weekend)

I went to knitting group yesterday afternoon and as always quite enjoyed the company and myself. I am looking forward to seeing the larger part of the group this wednesday. I have been working on a ( pair of socks ) for myself lately as I was working on a nice wrap out of some beautiful Kauni yarn and have made a mistake somewere and haven't been able to find it so I've been taking a break from it and will go back to it after I have finished the socks. I will post a pic of the socks again when they are done. Oh I will alos post a pic of the wondeful wrap to when it's done.

The mail has just arrived and I got my package from my bag exchange....it came all the way from the UK! I must go now and take pics and open up the package! I'll post pics of this package later to!

Well our day was a long one but a nice one at that. We were up and gone by 8 am as Kayne's class was heading to Goldstream prov. park for an overnigh feild trip and Billie and I were heading to Victoria for an MRI for her knee. We made really good time in getting to Victoria and ended up eing a bit on the early side for the appt, so we sat in the car for a bit and killed some time. We didn't have to wait very long for her to be called  for her 45 min long appt. so that was nice.
