GETTING CONNECTED

A couple of weeks ago while we were away for dance competition our oldest son stayed behind with his friend and parents. This was the first time that we have ever left him so you can just imagine how often I called to check in with him. We knew that we would end up with a huge long distance bill so we were prepared and purchased prepaid and what a phone cards savings it made! Needless to say our son was fine and having a great time and by the end of the weekend I was comfortable with the fact that he wasn't with us. I guess they do have to grow up and at some point I will have to let go.

Our family and friends all live long distance from us and phone cards are a great way for us to keep in touch with them in an efficient and cheap way. If you are looking for the right prepaid phone card then you should check out THERICHCOM.COM which is the ultimate phone card center where you will find cheap prepaid phone cards and international calling cards. Don't let the cost of long distance charges keep you from your family and friends. It is as easy as 1-2-3!

***THE DECISION IS MADE....

.....On Monday I am going to start walking in the evening with a friend of mine. We decided today that we will work together to get one another out of the house without the kids and get some walking done. This will give us a chance to get to know each other better and develop a better friendship. This is a hard thing for me to do because I hate leaving my friends behind when it comes time to move but we aren't planning on moving anytime soon so I figure I may as well enjoy life here in Cape Breton and make this home. I am looking forward to getting out walking, it will be a nice break from the kids and getting exercise at the same time.

***FRIENDS OVER FOR THE WEEKEND...

Last weekend Jay spent it with his friend Matthew and his family and apparently Matthew is coming over tonight to spend time with Jay here rather then at his house. This worked out pretty good for me since my husband is off for the weekend and I'm not left with a house full on my own. Trinity is going to check with her friend from dance tonight to see if she wants to spend the night and if so I have last minute plans to make and a trip to the grocery store for some good sleep over treats. I'm sure all will go well and everyone will have a great time and hopefully some of us will get some sleep!

***BACK OUT WALKING..

With all this nice weather we have been having lately I thought I would take advantage of it and get our for some walking. I really enjoy this time with Blake and he looks forward to getting out whenever possible. Today we ran into some friends from the school and went over to her house with the kids for a play date and they got along so good and Blake is wanting to go already. I will have to have them over soon to play here with Blake. It is so nice to see the sun shinning but it won't stay this way for much longer with lots of snow in the forecast for next week.
