Summer nights

I'm sitting on my deck. Alone. But that's the nice thing about it. 

I'm drinking wine and not doing anything. Some people might think I'm weird sitting in the dark by myself, drinking. But I have to say this is my kind of night. 

I'm listening to the bustle of the city. My neighbour is playing odd music that is actually pretty soothing. A train just went by and every so often (more often then not) a car passes by. 

I can hear my cat slinking in the neighbours yard and my dog breathing at my feet. My other puppy is chewing something in the yard. 

It's peaceful. It's how a summer night should be. It's nice. 

It's nice to be able to sit down with a glass of wine and not have to think about anything. 

Of course I am always thinking about things though. They are the good things. I'm thinking of the snuggles I had with my boys before they went to bed and how it is moments like that that gets me through the hard times. I'm thinking of the walk I took with the dogs and how good they were. And I'm thinking that my glass of wine is getting low. So I'm going to refill it. 

Have a wonderful summer everyone and remember to enjoy the simple moments. And never be ashamed to drink alone in the dark. It's blissful.

Happy Belated Canada Day.

So today is the 3rd of July and I have been absent for quite a while. [yup I'm still the reigning world's worst blogger]

I wanted to say happy belated birthday to my B-E-A-Utiful country who turned a whopping 147 years young. 

This is how I spent my Canada day: In my Pajamas doing nothing. 

That's right I was in my pjs until almost 7pm when Kayla, the boys and I went to Harris Park. I'm not ashamed. I had a fantastic day off lol. 

When we went to Harris Park in London, Ontario we went to see our friend Lindsay preform a teaser to the show she is playing in Petrolia this summer. Then we got ice cream and watched an amazing firework display. (Well done London btw!!) I wanted a god damn funnel cake but I kid you not the line was like a kilometre long! So I settled for a bland dipped icecream in a stale cone instead. #ughh 

Then we came home and went straight to bed. 

I may not have partied like a true Canadian but it was a very nice day off and I was just chilling since my work week that was coming up consisted of me working 10 days straight. 

So Happy Birthday Canada. We love you! And I will try my best (yet again) to post up more hehehe.
