Robyn=Rihanna=Riri=Robyn


 All along it was a fever
A cold sweat hot-headed believer
I threw my hands in the air I said show me something
He said, if you dare come a little closer

Round and around and around and around we go
Ohhh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay

 It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take, it's given
Round and around and around and around we go
Ohhh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay

Ohhh the reason I hold on
Ohhh cause I need this hole gone
Funny you're the broken one but i'm the only one who needed saving
Cause when you never see the lights it's hard to know which one of us is caving

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay, stay
I want you to stay, ohhh

Best Birthday EVER!!




So my birthday was celebrated on April 13th.  I did not know it...

I spent the day with my two best buds going for lunch and getting a pedicure: Robyn's Egg Blue of course:)

 Then I went to B's semi final game.  Afterwards I was going to go to Noelle's house for a surprise party for her...


The planning that went into my surprise was tricky.  I had already made plans with Audrey and Michelle to go out that night...Michelle came up with a reason we couldn't go.  B got into the semi finals so the timing of the party had to be delayed.  While at tea with JenR, Aimee was breaking into my place to get pictures for a scrapbook they put together for me... I was kinda miffed at bro in law that he was still going to have Noelle's surprise party even though I wouldn't be there (yes that was very diva like of me:)  I thought all along I was texting with Jay about the party but I was really texting with Noelle on Jay's phone. My nephew the sleuth even helped figured out my favourite restaurant the Red Stick aka the Baton Rouge.  This is where we went for dinner that night.   I saw photo's at work of me set aside on Janine's desk at the school taken way back and still did not think much about it... even as I walked in I thought I recognized a co-workers car (Mirka:) and still did not have time to put it together...  Noelle had purchased several dresses that I had to model with assistance from Miss Molly and then they all helped me choose one: to wear to the Rihanna concert that was on my birthday!  Everyone pitched in and got me the tickets, the dress, a gift certificate to Boston Pizza to go to before the concert with Breton and Daphne and funds to put towards new runners (for when I run the 1/2).


I am so truly lucky to have all these wonderful people in my life...I really do not know where I would be without them.  Some important people were supposed to be there but couldn't make it so I love you too!!!

Random Act Of Kindness

Tonight my sister Aimee called me to tell me she received a letter in the mail.  This was not just any letter, it was addressed to Aimee Smith or the current residence of her address.  Inside was a scratch lotto ticket!  That was it...and she won a free ticket after scratching it.  When she told her neighbor, her neighbor mentioned that it had to be a random act of kindness!

She said it put a smile on her face.  It cost 1$ and a stamp to mail it.  Hearing about it put a smile on my face.

I plan to pay it forward.  I have never practiced a random act of kindness beyond holding the door open for a stranger. But never such as paying for someone's order at the drive thru at Timmy's or mailing a lotto ticket anonymously to someone.

But this simple act was truly memorable. It has inspired me:)

What Breton did on the weekend...

He POPPED!


We have fun with the fact that B has crackers that share the same name.  Breton actually comes from his Grammie's maiden name:)
Now if we could just trademark it and get some of the profits
