With Glowing Hearts

I have been missing in action

I have no excuse

I was doing nothing important

or exciting


I have been lazy

watching TV

and playing computer games

not blogging

or reading

or crafting


nope
nadda
nothing


still here?
OK
.
.
.
.
Wasn't that a party?

yes ~ I am talking about the Olympics
the world came

competed

played

saw

I am a very proud Canadian
and was going thru a bit
of withdrawal this week

I have a glowing heart

.

as for Week 7 weigh in

I was headed there after work on
Thursday night

in weather something like this

the roads were treacherous
a glare of ice

so I turned around
and came home
and ate a pizza

not really ~ but I would have

so I will work hard this week
so maybe I will have a big loss
next week

maybe
even though I had this for brunch today

bad girl ~ I know
but we had company in
from out of town
and they wanted to take us
for breakfast

shoot me now.

Anyhoo
I think I kept you long enough
so tell me
was it worth the wait??

Olympic Fever

Vancouver 2010

it is something that we as Canadians
have been looking forward to
for a long time

it seemed so far away
but now it is right around the corner

the torch relay
was a site to see

it was a 106 day run
visiting more than 1000 communities
across our nation

I got a chance to see it
as it went right past our sub division
one morning back in November
it made me proud
and a little teary eyed

I am after all
a sentimental girl

I am not usually a sports watching
kind of girl
but when it comes to the Olympics
I will watch just about anything

scary ~ I know!

I am keeping my fingers crossed for Canada
as we do have a home advantage

here's hoping we get to hear
our national anthem
a few times!

these are the official Olympic mittens
I love them!

Will you be watching??
