Sunday and already a week into May

Hard to believe that it is already a week into May. Called home on May 1 for Mum's birthday...we had sent her some flowers and some Ferraro Rocher chocolate online. Caiti was home last weekend and then she was back to Kelowna with the van. MSN-ed her tonight as she was home for dinner and a quick snooze before her 11pm to 8am shift at the home. She also worked at the mall this afternoon. She will appreciate her days off for sure but will take all the hours she can get when she can.
Chrissy bought a 1994 white Honda Civic...a standard which she learnt to drive in an hour. She was starting and stalling here and there but Darcy is quite confident that within a week with practice she will be driving around with ease. She is now responsible for her own gas and her repairs. We helped her buy the vehicle from Mike at Wings who had bought it from Ross at Wings so we know the previous owners. She found the jeep too bumpy and with no trunk to lock things up it wasn't very practical. The jeep is good for taking the dogs to the park and that is pretty much all its good for. This will give Darcy back the Accord and make her accountable for her own car.
This will be a fulltime week for me again with lots of hours. Taking each week as it comes. I don't mind actually cutting back a little with the hope that once the weather gets warmer I can get back out there and walk more.
With Caiti settled and Chrissy still finding her way, we just keep on going. Darcy is finding his way in his new job and already he has been there over a month. I can't say enough how time flies.
First time in 14 years, May comes around and we do not have to worry about swim practice scheduled or anything like that. On Sunday, we stopped at CG Brown at the end of the Mantas practice to give Tony an officials disk and stopped to chat with Bryan Geary who filled us in on all his brothers. He asked if we would still be coming around and we said from time to time...maybe just to show up for Finals or something like that...LOL...This is good...we are ready to move on from the swimming cult...held us captive for way too long.
I am looking forward to getting some flowers into the window box and doing some day trips with the dogs...I realize that I have never been to places like Bowen Island.
This week, I am going to try and get to Curves at least 3 times...I have to!!!
