spring

Nine O’clock on an Easter morning and my children are still sleeping. The Easter egg hunt and egg painting days are long gone. Which is fine for me. No, I’m going to miss it a little bit. I have blueberries in the fridge so I think I will make blueberry pancakes and bacon and scrambled eggs. My mom use to always make these delicious hot cross buns but the recipes I tried, or the store bought ones are not the kind she made, so I don’t do the hot cross bun thing. The kids don’t like them anyway. I don’t do the church thing anymore either – which makes me feel a little guilty --- especially when talking to my Dad.

Cold. I need some spring now. We watched a lot of TV last night. The hockey game – they may still be in the playoffs? I am not sure if the Islanders have to win or lose today, for us to get that spot but I know they need to do something. We watched Pursuit of Happiness (I liked it) He reminded me of Greg – all or nothing sort of guy. And Blood Diamond – it was worth watching too.

I sent out a few stories, received a few rejections. One note said, “Well received but…” So, I was happy about that. And Mdialogue is beginning to get some press and some visitors, so that’s all good – He worked so hard on this –

Anyhow, must make pancakes. And then get the ham ready. I’m making a sweet potatoe casserole to go with it. Greg’s brother is coming by to have supper with us.

Have a happy one.
