This evening (Thursday night) I am going to the airport, running onto an airplane, bouncing off the walls of said airplane for four hours, and sprinting off that plane into the arms of some people that I love as soon as we land.
My mind isn’t really thinking straight tonight, and likely won’t until I get to the farm, so this is going to be in bullet form. Here are some of the things I am looking forward to while in Ontario for 10 days:
-Standing in front of the fireplace in the kitchen at the farm. Even in the summer when it is sweltering, that fireplace is always the “water cooler” of our home (it’s where all the good gossip happens)
-Tim’s parents 25th anniversary party and his Dad’s 50th birthday party on Saturday
-Going to a birthday party in Grand Bend on Friday with all of my friends from University
-Micaela’s bachelorette shot luck on Saturday
-Laura’s husband’s birthday party on Sunday
-Going to Toronto to finally (finally!) meet Reggy
-Rubbing Kate’s pregnant belly! And finally getting to meet the Razzlebaby that I already love so, so, so much
-Being Mom’s slave for a few days
-Hanging out with two women who I love dearly and I hear make excellent bartenders
-Learning the result of a Very Good interview I had today
-Eating food from the Pub where I worked through University. Also known as Heaven and where most all of my money went while in school.
-Taking a plane with Tim for the first time
-The Time Traveler’s Wife movie opening
And there’s something else too … I just can’t remember quite what it is. I know that it takes place in Saturday, August 15th … but I just can’t remember what it is.
Oh yea! I have a couple of things to do. I told my Oma that I would help her wash her dog, and I thought it would be a good day to pick out my eyeglasses. I have some socks that I need to mend, and I think I will finally get a start on a puzzle I have been wanting to do for awhile. If it’s nice out, I will lay out with my strappiest bikini and get lots and lots of tan lines. I think it will be a good opportunity to take that day to myself, as I will be very overwhelmed from all of the visiting I will be doing that week. Phewph! What a day I have planned for myself. Oh, and I think I’ll catch the Time Traveler’s Wife while I’m at it.
Mic – what are you doing on the 15th? Wanna hang out?
(Je blague, je blague)

Sorry buddy, I’m busy on the fifteenth. I have to cut my toenails, wash the dishes that have been building up in the sink, visit Chinatown, and buy new rainboots, just some things I’ve been meaning to do for awhile.
Micaela´s last blog ..Things to look forward to
The 15th? I hope it is rainy so I can get caught up with little things like cleaning the dryer vent, folding laundry and dusting the little spaces between the spindles on the kitchen chairs. If I have a bit of time to spare, I might hang with some friends…
I love your list!
hey Micaela, can i visit Chinatown with you?! i used to live there… hahaha
Enjoy your time @ home Leah!!
