if dreams come true

peggy lee is singing on a icky cold rainy windy victoria day.

it's been a busy birthday weekend! friday, ellie babysat while dil and i tore up the town a little.

saturday, it was kind of a packed day and i was a little hung over, but things went fine.

first we got up early and had breakfast. then we took jake downtown to the bluenose youth run. i was so happy that i got him registered properly (unlike last year) and got him there on time... phew. anyway, sam, dil and i watched jake run, and then we all headed home for lunch.

after that, ell and i went to get groceries while the birthday boy and his boys went on a ferry ride to dartmouth. after i dropped ell and her food off at creighton st, i picked the boys up and we drove jake to robbie's house and jim and tammie came to pick up sam.

by this time it was almost five, so dillie and i packed lightly and headed to the lord nelson for our little birthday rendezvous. it was awesome. bathrobes, mints on the pillow, bottle of wine, ice in the ice bucket, and a king sized bed... heaven. we had a great time.

on sunday after breakfast, we got in a little fight, but i can't remember what it was about. it may have been about nothing. anyway, we picked up jake, jim and tammie brought sam home, and we all had spaghetti and one of jim's famous cakes.

although today has been relatively quiet, i could still use another day or two of vacation!
