Hi friends.
I am at home on doctor’s orders and taking advantage of the 15 minutes I am allowed to be up to get on the internet.
It is official, I am addicted to the internet. I am having a real problem with not logging on 50 times a day to check my email, news headlines, celebrity gossip etc.
My name is Wendy, and I am an internetaholic.
I was watching BT this morning (of course) and listened to the gang talking about housework. Now ordinarily I can think of many chores that I really despise doing, but I am learning a tough lesson this week.
There is nothing like being confined to a bed for 23.5 hours a day to make you just WISH that you were up and dusting something! Do me a favour. Tonight, when you go to bed, just take a good hard look at your overhead light. I’ve never really looked at mine before.
WHERE did all of that dust come from?! WHY is it so dusty?! HOW did that fly get into a sealed fixture, and HOW LONG has he been in there?!
Please tell me that I am not just living in unmitigated squalor and this is the case at your house too.
So as much as I hate housework… I will be so grateful to be up and at it again.
That infernal light is my first task.
xo
Wish you the best, Hope you get well soon whatever it is. The BT club isn’t the same without Rob and the idea that the geeky blonde might not return is disturbing. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to Ryan. At least you have shown that you are intelligent and have a pretty common sense perspective on issues that is sorely lacking on tv commentary and news broadcasts.
January 27th, 2009 at 12:42 pmHi Wendy!
So sorry to hear that you’re under the weather. Get better soon; I miss watching you every morning.
Don’t worry about the dusties in you light fixture. You’re not alone. You may have heard Ryan say this morning (when they read my email) that my least favourite chore is dusting. I sent him an email offering a trade….. I’d fold his laundry if he’d come Windex my baseboards! His reply email warned me that I might get the short end of that stick.
Anyway, if you have to take a rest, you might as well take advantage of it. How often do we ever get to stay in bed all day?
Take care!
January 28th, 2009 at 10:17 amDon’t worry, Wendy. All lights get flies inside of them. They have mysterious powers, is all. Or maybe they lay eggs into the cracks.
Get well soon Wendy. We are pulling for you, doll.
January 28th, 2009 at 10:25 amMissed seeing you this morning, Hope you are feeling better soon. P.S. BREAKFAST TELEVISION IS MY MORNING SUNSHINE.
January 29th, 2009 at 10:07 amThank you so much for your well wishes! I am doing everything in my power to get better and I will be back soon, I promise.
To Melodie: Do NOT make that trade with Ryan. I love the man dearly but you must remember that this is the same guy who has to smell his yogurt every morning to see if it’s still edible. I don’t even want to THINK about someone folding his shorts.
To Debbie: Your “Morning Sunshine” comment made me smile, thank you. That is precisely what makes getting up at 3:30am worth it!
To Joe: Michele McDougall calls me “doll”, and so did my Nana. That word has healing powers. Thank you.
To Keven: I think I walk a fine line between “common sense” and “off my rocker”. Bless you for seeing the more flattering of the two
I take it for granted, as I share a desk with him in the newsroom, but if you are looking for a daily dose of Rob, don’t forget that you can check out Your City weekdays at 6pm. I love the show because it’s not your average newscast, he goes deeper into the stories that affect us here in Edmonton and introduces us to the faces behind the facts.
Back to bed now!

I can’t omagine not starting my dat without Morning Breakfast. I enjoy all the hosts but really miss Rob. Now not seeing your face makes me a bit jittery. Hopefully you are returning to the show and not at home contemplating a career move.. We would all miss you terribly so please come back as soon as you are able. Take care and God Bless.
February 2nd, 2009 at 10:40 amHi Wendy
Hope you will be back on the set soon as it is just not the same without you.
February 3rd, 2009 at 10:40 pmwe miss you… get back to work !!!!!!!!!!!
February 4th, 2009 at 12:19 pmSo glad your back…you made my morning!!!!

February 5th, 2009 at 10:00 pmMy wife thinks you are trying to have more babies? Is that true? Does my wife have unusual powers of perception? Is that why I can never win arguments? Is that why she’s always right?
