Happy Easter

I hope everyone had a good Easter :)  Mine was pretty good, Saturday we had supper with my family at my sister's house and Sunday we had supper at Gord's Mom & Dad's house.  That's two days in a row with big meals...ugh...but they were delicious and I think I planned my days sufficiently that I did okay overall.  

So supper at my sister's house was at 4:00, she invited us all by email, so we all got the same message.  We went there just before 4:00 and amazingly enough it wasn't a crazy madhouse like it usually is.  With how big my family is it doesn't take much.  But it was actually fairly quiet and relaxing.  One of my sisters wasn't there yet, but she basically lives on her own schedule and is rarely on time.  So we just watched golf, ate around 4:30 and knew she would get there when she got there.  She showed up at 5:00 and proceeded to get mad at all the rest of us because she was sitting at home the whole time thinking that supper was at 5:00 and why the hell didn't any of us text or call her to find out where she was?  Apparently she thinks we would have done so if it was one of my other sisters who had been late.  She did sit down and eat, made a few comments about how she paid for the turkey and then we didn't even wait for her to eat with us.  Like I said, we have a huge family, someone is always late and no, we don't wait for everyone before we eat.  She finished eating and said it was time to go.  She acknowledged that it was her fault she had the time screwed up but still felt that we should have done something in her absence.  So she left at 5:30 and my mom promptly got up and went into her bedroom.  Thanks very much for upsetting my mom on Easter...anyway...before she was there and after she was there we had a very nice time.  And I am sorry that she ended up upset, but we didn't really do anything, here I thought we were being nice by not stressing because she was late again.  Can't win.

Last week I finally went for my mammogram, first time for me.  What an incredibly painful and humiliating experience :(.  But results came back clear so it was worth it.  I admit I was fairly crabby that day, lol.

Gord and I also got our eyes checked this week so I think we are finally done all of our check ups for a while.  Yay :)

Today is a stat holiday for me so I get to stay home with my puppy.  He doesn't know yet but it's haircut day for him, lol.  He is stressed while I do it but then he feels so much better after.  And I just got a cordless clippers to use so I am looking forward to trying them out and not having to worry about a heavy cord.

Today is sunny but cold here...brrr...but I can't complain too much because we somehow were lucky enough to not get more snow even though it seems like everyone around us did.  

Take care :)
