\"\"<\/a>My first blog from my new Mac lap top. Takes a while to get used to it. We have a new printer too. It’s awesome–does it all.\u00a0<\/p>\n

First day of classes was exhausting–I’m so not used to so many hours with so many people and no down time. I need to be alone once in awhile to breath in again an recoup from all the socialization. It all takes practice I suppose. I am so used to my dad’s way of socializing: being in full-out party mode for a few hours and then needing to retreat for awhile alone to rest. I will have to develop<\/span> new skills that involve being the quiet Buddha girl in the back during class and reserving Party girl for….parties. And the Prof<\/span>–Carol–mentioned to the class how we once sang karaoke<\/span> together<\/span> at a party–Achey\u00a0Breaky<\/span> Heart–for the benefit<\/span> of the class. I felt a little bit shy and uncomfortable at that mention but managed to smile bravely as she told the story.<\/div>\n
So much grueling house work is involved in keeping a house of five running. I try to run this queendom<\/span> like a ship but good-grief it is work. I dream about the housekeeper who does it all for us: cook, wash laundry and clean.\u00a0<\/div>\n
Girls so busy with parties, soccer and being two–although now Pip claims she is three.<\/div>\n
My lungs are crap from the poor air quality in Kelowna<\/span>. We are like Mexico City here in the Okanagan<\/span> Valley–everything hangs in the air over our tight valley. Blow you smoke! Blow away so I can breath again!!! I blame<\/span> the Americans of course. Put out your blasted forest fires!<\/div>\n
Oh, and feel free to comment–I do like a lot of feed back. It’s lonely out here in this Queendom at times.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
