Sister's kid called Emergancy !!

Yup the poor guy was in so much pain. He couldn't wait so 5 am he called for help. They came and got him and good thing he called, He's on sick man. It's called Myocardities and there was one more thing wrong , this all has to do with the heart and its muscle. He thought he was having a heart attack, I'm sure he was very scared So prayers go out for ya Leon, Get well soon.

Yesterday I woke up with a sore throat, by evening I was sick as a dog in bed. My body hurt so much and it was a killer to swallow. So I went to sleep at 6 pm after taking some pills to try to ease my pain.

I woke up body not aching but throat still sore. Baked some cookies today, did some running around paying bills, and well , then you guessed it I came home and had to have a nap...energy was totally gone again.

This evening I plan to do NOTHING! Tomorrow I want to go swimming or at least sit in the hot tub , that might loosen this whatever I caught.

well I'm outta here again , chat soon.

Really planning of doing more studio stuff????

Well I"m really thinking about it, Was looking online and checking out prices of lighting and backdrops. Was thinking if I'd empty the basement spare bedroom I could set things up in there as a studio, do more than just the wedding. I guess its a start to something more don't you agree?

Went home for a overnight stay, Wished my dad a happy 75 th birthday , its tomorrow. Did some visiting amoung family and friends, and well got my fix with Nevada , she's my little angel and I love her so much!!!!

Well I got special company for afew days so I must go do stuff now . chat later. Just thought I'd let you know about my studio room in the basement idea.;)

Saturday and its a lovely day

Today is awesome , to be nice out this afternoon! Leah and I will be heading out for another walk, she loves it!! The hardest part of today is waiting til this afternoon when it should be around 0 degree's outside , right now its still about -13 its only 9 am.

Last night I went swimming ,friends were to show up but didn't but that was ok, I met another friend and we chatted away in the hot tub and I think I'll be making that my friday evening routine now. I really enjoyed it , something else to do than sit at house, its a cheap evening out, and well my body was screaming thank you while I was sitting in the hot tub!!!! Yup I just sold myself on that idea!! Wish I could find something else to do that was cheap for Saturday nights to go and do???

9:15 am and I"m bored!!! Does that even make any sense??

Well I guess I"ll get ready and take Leah out, see she doesn't care about the time.

chow all.

Another Awesome Day!

Well today was started with a good workout at the gym at 7:25 am! Then off for coffee , and well back home by 9 am. It's a very nice day out today so this afternoon I'll treat Leah , our peekapoo pup for a walk on the town, she loves sporting her red jacket and she can walk for miles. We will walk across town to the bowling alley , say our hello's and then swing by the car dealership and say our hello's there and then come home, I can tell you now already that once we are back , she's going to go crash on her favorite corner of the couch. LOL

This evening I'd like to go swimming , so that would be fun. I've lived here for over 2 years or so ( who counts?) and I think I have been to the pool once!! Its a nice place and I do like sitting in the hot tub and after a week of faithfully going to the gym , I deserve it!!!

The sun is shining, I hope spring is soon here, Winter had lasted long enough for me. Don't you notice people are nicer when the weather is ??? Everyone had smiles today , wow what a change from the norm let me tell ya.

Weekend is here , I have it off!! So yes I think it will be spent differently than normal. Sunday is the last hockey game of the season before play offs , so tickets we have for that night out. I enjoy it actually , didn't think I would but it does make a difference going to a hockey game and watching it , than sitting and watching one in front of the tv. I just can't get into that!

I hope you all have a great weekend , chat more later.

"Following Your Dreams"

This morning I was chatting away with a friend online who I'd say is one of the funniest people I have ever met, He's disabled but sure doesn't use that to bring himself down. He thinks funny stuff all the time, looking at the humor of life, and wow , he's just to much!! LOL

We starting talking about "following your dreams" and yes you can only amagine what his dreams were .........they were funny! But you know what , they were his dreams! That got me thinking , what dreams would I love to follow? So I sat down , shut my eyes , and thought ......ummmmmm follow your dreams.

One thing I thought about was to be able to be the best I could be. Just not focus on what others want or expect of me. I thought wow that would make life so much easier don't you agree? To be able to be "yourself " and for that to be OK.

I thought abit more on it and came up with Positive ........to be positive in what you believe in or do. Yeah there will be times that one would love to throw in the towel ,everyone has them days now. Its very easy to get yourself into a down rut......and its very hard to get yourself out!

Thinking the good in everything is very hard to do somedays, especially if things aren't going your way that day. But really , what does it help to dog or complain about it , it won't change it that's for sure. One of the things I'm doing now when feeling that way is , go do something you like , grab that book that is good , play with the dog, go do the dishes if it takes your mind off things..................or take time to PRAY.

I will be the first to say I'm far from perfect , but that doesn't mean I can't try. I will fail I'm sure , but that means pick yourself up , dust yourself off , and try again.

Following your dreams doesn't mean you have to have everything in life perfect , easy, etc what it means to me is that you believe in things , then you can follow thru on them.
One could sit here thinking wow wish I was in good shape, thinking isn't going to cut it now is it? So follow your dream , start with that , I did. Not always easy though, got a chip craving bigtime , let me tell ya!!!

So whatever your dreams are ...big or small...Don't give up on them, they can become real someday.

Have to go now ....I'm following a dream!

New Beginnings

Well I've been thinking, time for some changes around here in my world. I thought its going to start with me. So now its time to make things better , by better I mean , working on my health and care of myself. I've been beating myself up pretty good lately, truth being , I have been putting myself down pretty good , and it's really not doing any good. It's also not fair to my hubby, for that I'm really sorry.

I need to take more positive moves in my life. I need to not take the hurts that I've felt and keep them in my daily routine of life, I need to let it all go! I need to say , if its not positive then I'm walking away from it! I need to say its ok to make mistakes , everyone does , but today will be a better day! I need to start to care about myself! I need to love myself again.

Today a friend and I started at the gym, Chris is a really nice guy and a good friend, he himself has been through alot of hard stuff , which I'm not going to get into but he to was feeling rather beat! So I said I'm going to start at the gym , and he said why, and I said de-stress time!!!! So we both went. We worked out , had a great time , and guess what ? We both felt alot better!! So it's working.

After we went to pick up my hubby and off to Boston Pizza we went to have lunch, Hubby bought and thanks sweetie it was a great lunch. I'm so blessed to have a hubby that will support my choice of trying to make myself healthier than one who would not, But this is for me , its my gift to myself. Even though I know he loves me the way I am.

I did abit of housework this afternoon , vacumned the basement , did abit more upstairs but didn't get as far as I should have, excuse ........yes......I wasn't in the cleaning mood! LOL
I will try again later though. All in all the day went very well , tonight I have the house to myself so I may get more done then, or I'll cave and go for that hot bubble bath idea?

Oh about the other day, Yup Leah was a hit at work, the elderly ppl love her bigtime, she visited , ran around , jumped on ppl's couches and oh yeah came home and had a long nap. She makes so many ppl happy , I love having her , she's good company.

ok i'm outta here now , going to do somemore work. Have a great day!

Leah will be the star attraction today!

Well they asked so they shall recieve. Where I work the people like excitement and every so often I'll be asked will you bring Leah with you when you come back to work, I was asked by someone who not long ago moved into the Manor, she's not a happy lady most of the time due to health issue's but I've been trying to spend sometime with her and Yeah I think she likes me.

She smiled when I told her , yes I'll bring Leah , I know you don't come outta your room once you've been down for dinner so I'll come visit you in your room after I get my client done , she beamed a big smile and said "thank you".

This lady was a hard working lady all her life, said she did everything healthy thru out life and now is having a very hard time excepting the fact that she'd had a stroke , can hardly walk now and is almost blind! My heart goes out to her. She misses her own home, and in general is just having a rough go of this moving thing.I hope someday she can find comfort in her new living arrangements and settle down to enjoying things more , cause she really does have a good heart.

So Leah will put on her stylish red jacket with he hood and sport her charm on whoever wants it , she's really not picky at all. She loves making the people happy and will let anyone put out their hands for her to lick with all the pride she can muster up! She already has no problems jumping up on my clients lap when i need to push her chair somewhere , I guess Leah thinks if she's getting a free ride , why not me too!

So that will be part of our afternoon, Then I'll drop Leah off cause she will need to have a beauty sleep after all that excitement and I"ll head off to the mall , to find someone to bug or just to look around and kill time, its something to do.

So chow ppl I must do Leah's hair now , she's gotta look her best!

Well the good news is that the month is half over!!!! It's been cold, and those who know me know I"m not big on the winter weather. I can't wait til March....Oh I'm so hoping that spring kicks in bigtime!

Nothing special to really write about, doing the norm, working , finding things to do that keep me amused, into some good books now. Hi-lite of my day today was my chat with my niece Jody ...time flies when we chat its like ok jody we've been on the phone over a hour now!

Tonight I'll spend playing solitaire on the puter , pick my brain with the book i'm reading , do the supper dishes , and go sleep. This weekend is my working weekend with my client and really I don't mind , keeps me busy and the time goes by fast.

Well that's about it, time to go and start supper now , hate the days when you just don't know what to make , but have to come up with something on a plate , Don't have any mushrooms in the house and I put mushrooms in just about everything so yup have to come up with something.

Hopefully something funny will happen this weekend that I could humor you about huh? One never know's ........haha.

Wow 118 hours of work in 10 days!

I'm so tired, my eyes burn. That's what I've been feeling since taking on alot of shifts at work. I don't mind the work but geez the last time I seen my own bed was a week ago. I just finished 2 day shifts now and I'm happy to say I'm alive but tired , and now have 3 days off!! whoohoo

Besides the unreal working hours I put in , I had to drive 4 hours back to my hometown, to attend my best friends hubby's funeral, he was only 48 years of age and passed away after a short battle with cancer. I was in shock to hear of his passing...... it blew me away , I thought he was going to beat it.

There were alot of people there , it was good to see the support the family got. They loaded him on the flat bed of his semi and took him for a ride past his homestead and then on to the burial grounds. I couldn't go to the burial ceremony , I headed straight back home to put in a night shift with my client.

I was happy to attend the funeral though, I know what I have to say next could disturb some people but its what I felt as I looked at my friend in the casket , He was at peace , He had no more worries in life , He didn't have to worry about people not liking him, He didn't have to worry about not adding up , or doing the right thing all the time. He was at total peace!!! What a lucky guy .......... I wish.

My emotions really took a toll this week , I can say it was really a hard week. I'm hoping that next week will be easier on me, and hopefully I will be good to myself and not beat myself up like i did earlier .Thank God that monday is a new start of a week!! Cause Sunday was a day of rest !

Well don't really want to get into any more topic's , Not really have anything else to say. I"m home , week is over , and well tomorrow will be a normal cleaning kinda day ......so on that note , I'm heading to bed .......night all .
