The boys have been gone since Saturday, and there is an eery emptiness that fills the house. It's strange that while they were here, their running around and rambunctiousness got to you after awhile, especially when we were used to it just being the two of us and our dog....but once they were gone, my goodness how we miss them. How I wish I could here the youngest sons heavy elephant foot steps coming down the stairs in the morning....or eldest son joking about whether I wanted to see his silly dance. Yes I already miss them as does their father. It's a long time until the summer.

I had to go into work today to meet with my employer regarding my gradual return to work. Well after they read the report from my physiotherapist and the fact that my doctor wants me to have a CT scan the employer realized that it might be a little premature trying to get me back to work. I was a bit bummed by that, as I really do want to get back to work, but at the same time I want to make sure that I am ready. I continue to experience intermittent numbness in my forearm and index finger, and I get the most terrible pain and burning down my spine and through my right shoulder. So I guess until there is further investigation I will be off for a while longer.
So as I said I was feeling a tad bummed so hubby and I decided to go vehicle hunting. I am wanting to trade in my baby....yes sell my wonderful Mustang convertible.....I have finally realized that it really isn't practical for where we live, nor spacious enough for when we have the children or want to go off road. I am looking at a sport utility vehicle, something that has good cargo space, space for the children and well that has some character to it. I would ideally like heated seats and a sunroof and not to mention low kilometers on it if at all possible.....is that a tall order? Maybe....I test drove a couple of vehicles today.....depending on what one dealership is willing to give me for a trade in I might have a vehicle by the weekend. Hubby has also been actively looking on ebay....oh my you can get some great deals....but most if not all of the vehicles we look at on ebay are cross the border and mostly in Florida or Texas....but hey....I have never been to either state so that could be an adventure all on it's own.
Not much more to say, hope life is treating you all well....cheers.....
