Wanna know my definition of BLISS?

Walking hand in hand with the one I love while having an uninterrupted and engaging conversation.

That's what Hubby and I did this afternoon. We are rarely a spontaneous couple but today we decided to just take off on the kids (mwu ha ha ha) and go for a walk in the glorious sunshine. We found outselves at Starbucks (yes, I KNOW it's Sunday but the events of the last month and a half have left very little time to steal a few moments together) where we had a nice frosty drink (yum...a blended strawberry lemonade with a couple of shots of raspberry! Try it, you'll LOVE it!)and had time to just talk, dream and stare into each others' eyes. I loved it!

I'm so lucky to still be in love with the same man after 28 years (if my Hubby ever finds out about this guy he's going to be really mad! Just kidding!!). We were high school sweethearts and I can't really remember life before him. I remember when I was in university a friend, who was struggling in her relationship, asked me how I knew I was in love with my Hubby. I told her that everytime he walks into a room my heart jumps into my throat. She asked how I would know when I wasn't in love with him anymore and I answered, "When my heart doesn't jump anymore." Duh...

After 28 years together with almost 18 of them as a married couple, he still makes me catch my breath when he walks into a room. I love him more than anyone can ever imagine and I consider myself the most blessed woman in the world to be in love with, and married to, this man.

I love you Hubby...always and forever. You are my flippin' world!!!

Thanks for an awesome day. Let's do it again really soon....

...and that, my friends, concludes this blog. I think yesterday's post is an appropriate way to end it. I really don't have the time to keep a blog anymore.  My posts aren't as entertaining as they used to be (sometimes I bore myself) and right now it just seems more like a chore than a creative outlet. I will keep the blog active for awhile until I can find the time to slurp all the posts into a book but I don't think I'll be adding anything new. Thanks for reading.  Thanks for all the support over the years.  Thanks for listening to the Crazee Chick rant... See you later.... Lisa

24 Hour Relay Report--Facebook Style

Status: Walked almost 30 km this weekend. Walked from 11pm until 3 am--did 20 km--stumbled, weaved, bobbed, and limped through that last 2 kms and now have empirical knowledge of what it feels like to be asleep on your feet.   Feet hurt. Legs hurt. Hips hurt. 75 year old man passed us during our 4th hour. He was on his 16th hour and managed to run 165 km in a 24 hour period. Inspiring! Humbled by elderly, fit man, called the Lone Wolf. What courage. Reached my fund raising goal.  Thank you to all who donated.  Your contributions helped to raise over $1,000,000.00 and send 852 kids to summer camp this year.  Thank you.  Visited Starbucks 3 times in effort to warm up. Weather was not on our side. Cold and rainy! Ick!  Slept in a tent trailer for the first time in my life! It was so cool. It was also especially wonderful to be out of the rain and not sleeping on the ground. Met a bunch of crazy people.  Got to hang out wif  my best fwiend for the entire weeke

Scents and Scents-ability

Before I became a Mommy I was a working girl. And when I was a working girl, I was a GOOD smelling working girl. I had my favorites--Tresor, Poison, Giorgio, Ysatis, Tuscany per Donna, Eternity by Calvin Klein, Perry Ellis and Alfred Sung. I had so many perfumes--and I loved them all! Then I became a Mommy and I did away with all my perfumed-ness. Why? I guess I didn't want my baby to have to breathe all that while s/he was trying to nurse. Perfumed flavored milk? Yucky! And...I never went out so why did I need to smell pretty? Wasn't smelling like breast milk, puke and baby poop enough of a sensory overload? Now I'm two things: Mommy and Working Girl. But I'm not a breastfeeding Mommy so you know what that means... BRING ON THE PERFUME!! The other day I went to the store and I was bowled over by the choices! Givenchy has a million scents now, JLo has like three kinds, and then there's that Ed Hardy guy with the fabulous name-- Christian Audidgi
