Controlling my URGES.................

It's 1 a.m. in the morning - and I have an incredible urge to dance - with reckless abandon
Maybe it was dancing at the wedding that awakened a primal urge in me because I virtually stopped
dancing when John and I met...............
John does not dance.
When did that become Suzan will stop dancing then?
I also have an urge to bake cupcakes - but it's too hot.

I get uncontrollable urges to cut my hair - I mean really cut my hair -short - pixie - run my fingers - messy - short hair............this heat doesn't help - it's hard having a blanket ( hair ) draped over your neck all the time.
Think it's time to do it.

I have an urge to eat the O Henry chocolate bar that's sitting on my desk - so far I've been able to fight it.
Why don't I move it instead of casting furtive side way glances at it every 30 seconds?

I have an urge to wake John up - for no reason in particular.
I also have an urge to stay alive - so I won't.

I have an urge to sneak out the door and go for a walk - in the middle of the night - like an alley cat.
Again,  have an urge to stay alive - so I won't.

I fought an urge to check CL tonight - because I have too much to get rid of still - and John keeps saying
" ENOUGH "
finally give in after he went to bed and this is what I missed out on..............30.00

and this for FREE

30.00 later and I could have had both of these beauties in my place ready to paint..............
But I was too busy fighting off urges.

Think I'm going to eat that chocolate bar..........................

Much love,


Partying with!!!

Feeling Hot Hot Hot...................

I swore I wouldn't utter a word about the heat this summer...............I made a promise to myself that I was going to bite my tongue and just remember what happened in Spring here in Montreal

BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS - the heat is repressive - makes everyone feel nauseous and cranky and just plain miserable and I'll complain if I want to - what kind of promise was that to make to myself anyway?

If I were a stalk of corn I'd look like this

What good is having 4 seasons - if all 4 of them are going to be horrible???????????
If each one of them leave you longing for the one you just had?

The heat goes on in southern Ontario and southern Quebec Thursday, with humidex values in the high 30s and low 40s.

CBC meteorologist Jay Scotland said temperatures should be slightly less warm than Wednesday, but still hot and humid.

Ottawa officially reached heat wave status yesterday — three straight days of 32 C or higher — and Toronto could follow suit today after a high of 34.8 C on Wednesday. The temperature was already 27 C in Toronto's downtown as of 7 a.m. ET.

"That would be seasonal average for a daytime high, and we're nowhere near the daytime high just yet," Scotland said.

For you Americans - the above is in Celcius - ( which took me 20 years to think in terms of  - and now thanks to blogging and most of it being American - I'm dangerously close to thinking in terms of Farenheit again ) it's in the mid 90's - which is one thing - but it's the humidity which brings it soaring past 100..........
104 with the humidity today to be precise.
By 7 o'clock in the morning it's 80 degrees............
Still think of Canada in terms of Snow and igloos?
( that would be just a leeetle further up north my friends )
Montreal and Toronto weather come dangerously close to being like Manhattan weather - and if you've ever been to Manhattan in July and August you know exactly what I'm talking about - and if you haven't been in July or Auguest - DON'T
And if you do go in July or August don't say I didn't warn ya!!!!!!!!!!

Right now these are looking pretty good
