The End

The End of having Oma here. Kate's mom goes home tomorrow and we're back on our own (so to speak). The level of help and support surrounding us should ensure that if we need something people will be there for us. It's been nice having her here this last 7 days as she has done so much around the house and shown me that some things in our lives can be taken care of in an instant rather than making it a thing to be dealt with.

I've come to realize that I can help motivate Kate by getting Sebastian ready to go and making coffee in the mornings and I think that from now on she needs to be up and out of bed before I leave in the morning. The house works as functional mess and that's ok. We can survive with this and cleaning it up only takes a little effort rather than the daily attempt we were making for it to appear that we don't have kids at all and instead live in a spotless and up-kept house.

Last night we went to the Pro Street Wrap Party at the Vancouver Aquarium which was awesome. The venue is a great place to have a party and the food was quite good also. We wandered around looking at underwater animals of all sorts and Rigby brought in the attention. It was a good time and nice to get out and away for an Adult evening of entertainment. Tonight (and a few nights ago) we went out and had a cappuccino and cookie at JJ Bean and sat and talked, again good to get out for some adult time.

Going forward we are devising a schedule of events for Kate's days and some basic things for us all to deal with the days. Meal plans with recipe cards and pre-ordered groceries. A few purchased meals from Chef Claires and Sliced Tomatoes and the knowledge that we can make a difference to our own lives as long as we get of our asses. That and we're going back to vegetarianism which makes both of us very happy indeed.
