So i realized that some of you may actually be entertained by my adventures with E. and N. (the kids i nanny for) and i thought i'd give you a funny/ bizarre E. story. It's been a while and they are pretty much the other half of my life these days.
So E. hasn't been sleeping much. She's supposed to be a light sleeper and the baby will still wake up in the night crying ie: no sleep for the whole family. Today during one of her many melt downs when she was trying to tell me something and i couldn't understand through tears, she starts with her jibberish which sometimes combines a hebrew song (I've since learnt this from her mom) and today it was
"MAH MAH MAH Peter piper picked a peck of pickled peppers MAH MAH MAH"...riiiight, okay. So my response was,
"HEY ELLIE....mellow out....She sells seashells by the seashore"...she stares at me, laughs and tries to copy it, but opts for peter again.
I'd like to remind you all that she turned 2 a week and half ago.
The End

Is this really necessary!
So this is the building i live across from...it's gorgeous but someone thought it would be great to mess up my view by postering their window in not white or black bristol board, but FLORESCENT GREEN!!
I have had guesses that maybe the person has a festive picture on the other side you know a Christmas tree their little kids have made, but how do you explain the duct tape then? Bright blue zig zagging across where their pretty tree would be...i don't know, but the amount of rules that exist at the apartment at home in Toronto would mean this would be vetoed so fast their head would spin..
Oh and at night while thankfully the florescent window is muted there is a Christmas tree recently erected which has coloured lights (not my choice) and then has flashing green lights...that's great, good for you your tree is bright and colourful, but it's so bright and colourful i can see it out of the corner of my eye when i'm sitting on my couch.
Wow...rereading this i realize i sound a bit cynical (bah humbug?)
On a lighter note my white lights are up as is my Christmas wreath..oh and the Christmas carols are aplayin'
