Up until yesterday I thought Mr Big from STC was soooooooo cool, yesterday I changed my mind, ‘NOBODY’ is cooler then Slaven Bilic and hence his new nickname. On his wrist you will find the holy bracelet that so many of us wear and in his pocket you will find his cross. Besides the fact that I can’t get enough of Croatian Soccer I just can’t get enough of “Mr Bigic” (Besty gets the credit for this name). I can’t write enough about this man…..
For those of you that don’t know, Anna Granic is now a certified personal trainer, a sad misli da je pametna. Last night we were at soccer at Norval and she comes over while we are minding our own business drinking our coffee and says to me and Besty, “a few of us are gong to start jogging during Soccer are you girls interested”? After my initial shock of the interruption of coffee time I told her “da se vrati kad ima nesto pametno pitati”. Sorry Kuma but please soccer time is for socializing…..
Who is more excited then me today, NOBODY!!!! I woke up this morning and niko said, “mom are you going to see Sex and the City tonite”. pametno djete!!! Well for those smart ladies that are joining us if you have time, we are meeting at Montana’s for drinks, Cosmos of course before the movie at 8:00 for the rest see you at the show!!! For those of you who are not coming, not my problem ’sto ste stupid’…..
SilverCity is located off the Burloak exit, go South then turn left on Wyecroft road…… did I mention I am sooooooooo excited.
As per usual yesterday I walk to the school to pick up the kids, I always get Ante first then we go get Niko. Ante ran ahead of me with his friend Evan to the park. Niko came out and asked me if he could go to the park for 5 minutes. Ten minutes later Niko comes back and I ask him where Ante is and he says he did not see him, keep in mind the park is 25 feet away. I start looking around the area thinking Ante is hiding but can’t find him. One of my neighbors starts helping me look for him and I send Niko to the end of the school to see if he is around the corner. No sight of Ante, I am not a panic bug so I have this idea that he is on his way home. I call Goran and tell him to head toward the school and he states that Ante just walked into the house. Ante said he didn’t see me so he decided to walk home from school by himself. He then asked me if I was going to beat him like a step child but I was too relieved to do anything.
Incredible Story
In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Northwestern University .
On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully.
He got down on one knee & inspected the elephant’s foot & found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully & as gently as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his hunting knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man, & with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, & walked away. Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.
Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned & walked over to near where Peter & his son Cameron were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.
Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter couldn’t help wondering if this was the same elephant. Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing & made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant & stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Peter legs and slammed his stupid ass against the railing, killing him instantly. Probably wasn’t the same elephant.
This is for all of my friends who send me those heart-warming stories.

Last week we pulled out our blue on ground pool, we washed it and prepared to set it up when Goran noticed there was a hole in it. The mice had a field day in the winter, not to self, keep the pool in the crawl space. No problem, I say, I will go buy another one. The last words I remember out of Goran’s mouth were not to get a bigger pool and ruin anymore of his grass. Lets face it, nobody is more anal than the Hrkac sisters about their lawns, so I would be ruining “my” grass.
Off to Zellers and I see the perfect pool, a little bigger I am thinking but Goran probably won’t notice. The first thing he noticed was that it came with a ladder and just shook his head. I was thinking it’s only a little bigger so I grad the measuring tape and measure the previous hole and thought wow the last pool was a ten foot radius, glance at the box and realize this one is 15 feet. Again Gogo just shook his head, I am thinking, 5 feet how much bigger can that be. On Sunday Goran was taking a nap and I asked Fab at Forty to help me set it up, ooppps. The pool is 50 percent bigger then the last one and is 4 feet deep. Gogo wakes up and again just shakes his head. He must have been very dizzy by the end of the weekend constantly shaking his head.
Needless to say I have a fantastic 15 feet by 4 feet deep massive pool in my backyard filled and getting warmer from the solar blanket I also had to purchase because otherwise the 60 000 gallons of water would never be warm enough to swim in. I told him he will Thank me when he comes home from work and can go swimming, again a shake of the head.
Regardless my new pool can hold at least ten people comfortably or me on a floater and the kids….
Stay tuned for a pool party invitation…..
Just found out that my seke, Fab at Forty and Donnie are off to Paris next month for a week. I am a little envious but nobody is as jealous as Teta Marica. They have already promised to keep us up in the loop during all of their escapades. Way to go ladies…..
Just thought of something while I was watering the grass, if you two had booked regular class as opposed to Business you could have combined you points, added 20 000 and taken me!!!!
So I was shopping with the boys at Loblaws Superstore and I am lined up at the self check out counter. Any moron knows that there is one line up and you move forward every-time a station opens. A station opens and this woman that came up after me goes through and starts putting through her items, I can’t say anything because I am on the phone with my Besty so I wait. After she is finished I said, I just wanted to point out that usually there is one line up and next time she should wait her turn and not bud in front of other people, myself and the lady behind me. She turned to me and told me I was too busy yakking on the telephone and ‘ripping’ something out of my child’s hand, so she went ahead. Most people would have left it at that, not me (or Annie or Sylvia) so I told her she was F-A-T and told her that perhaps she should have left the junk food at the store, she called me a bitch, oh well.
Just not being able to leave good enough alone, I made sure I went out the same exit as her and scanned the parking lot for her and found her going to her call so I called out ‘Bye Fatso’ (she weighed about 180) and she yelled out for me not to be such a chicken and say it again, so I did, ‘Bye Fatso’ and then spelt it for her F-A-T-S-O she then got in her car and told me she was going to go over to the cops in the parking lots and tell them I abuse my children. I guess I could have let it go, but no so I asked her if she knew what C%%% spelled, I am way too lady like to actually say the word.
On the way home Niko asked “mom, are you going to blog about the FAT lady”
Tick, Tick Tick, we are getting closer!!! The new and final date to get together and go see the movie of he year is Wednesday June 11th. We are going to Burlington to the new SiverCity that has a room that seats about 100 in comfy seats. The tickets are $16.95 but lets face it, it’s worth it.
