Spring - A fresh start....

Spring is here, and with it's arrival comes the promise of new beginnings.  So I've taken it upon myself to begin blogging again.  I've deleted all 3 of my old posts, and am starting fresh.  I'm hoping to use this is a place to record the good in my life, because it's just way to easy to get caught up in the day to day crap.

Just in case you happened to stumble upon my blog, let me fill you in on the basics. 

I'm a SAHM to 4 kids.  Here they will be referred to as: 'Hazlenut' - my 12 year old son; 'Green Eyed Monster' - my 8 year old son; 'Brown Eyed Girl' - my 3 year old daughter, and my 'Little Blue Dude' - my 6 month old son.

My hubby is a long-haul truck driver, whom I'll call bigblupete.  Normally I don't see him  more than one day a week, two days if we're lucky, but back in October he had a fall off his flatbed, and he's been home ever since.  Don't be surprised if you see him referred to as the fifth, or maybe the biggest, child.

Bigblupete and I grew up on the East Coast of Canada, and relocated to Southwestern Ontario over a decade ago.  But no matter how much time I spend here, I'll always be a Caper at heart. There's no air like salt air, and no better folks than the folks at home.

So if you're willing to listen to me ramble about the nonsense that is my life, you're more than welcome to follow along.  But here's fair warning, I'm quite good at rambling. 

Welcome to the Zoo!!!!
