It seems fitting that my last post was on Passover, and my new one is coming out the day of the first seder. To say that a lot has happened in five years is a hell of an understatement. I suppose it's time for an update. Where to begin?
Let's start by completely ignoring the elephant in the room, and talk about some happy stuff, eh? In the past five years, we moved TWICE! I absolutely hate moving, and moving twice with triplets is no picnic. But we are happy in our new home, and I told our friend Adrian that he'd have to bury me in this house. Not necessarily because I love it so much (I do, btw), but because I hate moving that much.
In other happy news, our pet population has absolutely exploded! Not literally, of course, but those of you who follow me on Instagram, can attest to just how many animals now live in this house. So check out our furry friends:

This is our dog, Simba. He's an Aussiedoodle with a snarky sense of humour. How can a dog be snarky? Trust me, he can. He steals stuff, not to eat, but because he finds it hilarious to make you chase him.
This is Sonic the Hedgehog (one of the only acceptable names for a hedgehog according to my daughter). He hisses at you when he gets mad, and makes his face look like an angry punkrocker. She finds it adorable.
This is Stitch, Phillip's gerbil (or brobil, as he called him). He is silent, doesn't stink, is cute, and low-maintenance. All in all, the perfect pet!
This is Joesph with his rats Loki and GusGus. They are playful and cuddly, and he adores them. There is much more rat related news, but I think I will save that for the next blog. (Ooh! A cliffhanger!)
As for that elephant I mentioned earlier, we were getting through the pandemic fairly unscathed. And we were looking forward to hosting our first seder in so long! Just think of it! People! In our house! An actual family dinner! Huzzah! But then... (I think you can all see where this is going...) BOOM! COVID came and hit us in the face. It sucks, most of us feel like garbage, but we're surviving. So, let's see if we can eat a 15lb turkey between the five of us. (Don't worry, I froze the brisket.
Until next time. ( I promise I won't take five years to update this time.)
