It’s 9 pm and I am sitting here at my desk sipping a hot cup of tea and feeling inspired to get on my web page for a change. I’m sorry to all those out there that check to see if there are new updates and have been sadly disappointed to never see anything new. I am beginning to feel in the mood again so please keep checking…..don’t give up on me yet! To tell you the truth I have been going through alot in the last couple of months and I have just been more tired than I can explain. The great news is I feel like a new person this week. I know it is because I have just had a break from work and life for the last couple of weeks. I was so worn down that I was beginning to loose it a bit. But thankfully summer came just in the nick of time and saved the day. I now feel like a new person…..happy for a change! George probably loves the new me. It has been so wonderful to be home everyday with Isla. God, she amazes me….I can’t believe that I can love her more everyday because everyday I feel like I love her so much I could explode yet there is always room for more. Cheesy I know …but very true. I have been finally getting on top of the house work and loving it. Not only is the house staying clean for a change but I have been organizing and purging us of clutter. Maybe that is contributing to the new Nellie. Anyways I am having a great summer and will keep you posted on things but now I realize I should be writing about my dad’s birthday since that is what this blog was suppose to be about.
Well before my parents left for the mainland we had a very nice birthday bash for my dad. While my parents were at church on Sunday, my sister and brother and their better halves and George and Gabe and Isla all set up for the party. It was fun and entertaining as everything with the Poulson family is. We sipped mimosas, strung lanterns, taped things down, hung signs, cooked food(okay, George did that),laughed and tried not to get tangled up in streamers. Two hours and couple of mimosas later we had a not too shabby party put together. Seeing how happy it made my dad was the best bit. He is an amazing man who always helps others and never asks for much and it was great to give him something he more than deserves. George’s food was of course the hit. He made BBQ-ed pork sandwiches with homemade coleslaw and orange jello(my dads favorite). It was deeeeeeeelicious! My mom and I, the week earlier, had gone through a bunch of old photos and found 60 wonderful pictures of my dad from when he was a baby to now and then a friend of ours made it into a video that everyone watched. I thought that was the best bit! So it was great day and very special since it was all about one of my most favorite guys in the world……I love you dad!

Okay, I can longer put it off….updating the web page that is. Not that I want to put it off put I always have a million and one things to do before I tell myself I can sit down and get on the computer. I’m screwing it all tonight and being wild. So here I am. It’s about 8:30 pm. Isla went to bed at 7:15 tonight and she is still talking in bed. Basically she has tried everything tonight to get me in the room……”drink?”, “poo-poo?”, “hold mamma?”, “daddy read?”. I’ve been in a few times but had to get a bit firm with her and tell her to “GO TO BED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Now Isla is singing to herself in there. She loves to sing “The ABC’s” and “Twinkle Twinkle”. I am hoping she will sing herself right to sleep like she should of and hour ago. I have a bunch of pictures to put on but not tonight…..this week I promise.
I had a great Mother’s Day. The only thing I asked for is to sleep in a bit and I got my wish. George got up with Isla at 6am and I snuggled back into bed and although I didn’t really go back to sleep I kind of drifted in and out. It was so relaxing because I new I didn’t have to worry about a thing. I did finally get up when George and Isla brought me a cup of tea around 7:30. I’m not sure I remember the last time I did that so it was definitely a treat. We then all wandered down to Sugar Cove around 8:00 and enjoyed the lovely , peaceful beach to ourselves for an hour. The rest of the morning was mellow and for lunch we met my family at Haliimaile to eat. So it was a great day and I couldn’t be more thankful to be a mom!
Work is slowly winding down for me. Summer is quickly approaching….though not fast enough. I have about 3 and 1/2 weeks left so I am excited. I have a lot of plans for the summer as usual but mostly I just want to spend some time with Isla. Every morning I wake up to beautiful summer weather yet I feel I can’t quite enjoy fully…..but soon!
Well all seems quiet in the next room. Isla must have drifted off into dreamland. I would like to be headed there myself very soon. I think I will grab a quick shower and crawl into bed and if I am lucky I might get a paragraph read in my book tonight. Sweet dreams moms!
