A letter came Monday - DH is approved to be my sponsor, and my eligibility for Cdn residency has been approved, pending a chest x-ray, which I couldn't get b/c I was pg with DS2 at the time. I had the x-ray this morning.

According to the doctor (when I picked up the req for the x-ray), he thinks the next thing I get in the mail will be my permanent residence card.

My face hurts from smiling so much :D

My joy of the day isn't kid related in the sense that I wasn't with my child. Does that count? Today is my sneak off campus and have coffee all by myself day. I don't even care about the extra calories even though I'm trying to lose weight. Sure, I study but it is just me and I love it.

I understand the sheer joy that comes with a great haircut. I have a new stylist that I just love. I finally feel like I recognize the person in the mirror.

My house is clean. I have a small part-time job to make just enough to pay for a house cleaner. I love it. This was only the second time. I love that I have more time to do things other than clean.

Glad you're having a good hair day!

DH just informed me that he got a transfer and will finally not be working sixty gazillion hours a week. So I might actually feel like I'm married again!

It's 70 degrees and sunny here in GA today, and I'm loving it! DD2 is wearing her first Naartjie outfit to the first time, which I've been looking forward to (oops, that's kid-related). But I am wearing capris & sandals for the first time this year, AND I finally painted my toenails for the occasion -- yay for spring!!

I got my cast off!! Woo hoo! I've been in and out of casts since AUGUST after two consecutive surgeries.

Of course, I'm now 'moulting', but boy, did it feel good to scratch!!

I'm in the market for a new lip color. I have MAC lipglass and love that stuff so I would like to try more MAC but I have no idea what colors to order.

My every day colour is Unchanging. It is really natural looking. Kind of what you wish your lips looked like without lipstick. I wear it with Whirl lipliner (just a touch put on after the colour instead of before like normal) and then the gloss.

I got the MAC Pro Longwear in "For Keeps." It's a pretty pink. I have very fair skin and auburn hair. My eyes are my best feature so I tend to play those up and leave my lips neutral. But no lipstick was making me look dead. This is just enough color to balance everything out.

I got new jeans!! I ordered them online last week and it got cancelled but I found them in-store tonight. I'm so excited about not having to squeeze a belt on to keep my pants up.

I also love all the expensive clothes I'm buying for dirt cheap with the great sales going on.

My boss took my asked for raise and up-ed it by more than I asked for. Given that I asked for more than I thought I would get, it was a pretty nice surprize. I can cut my hours enough to have a whole day with my child and still take home the same paycheck after the new assistant is all trained up. :) Oh and my work is giving me an allowance towards my college costs. Woohoo.
