Hi There

I honestly have not been keeping anything from you. I have basically been sleeping and working for the past week, it will continue on until Sunday (so far).

Now I am going to go sleep, and then work.

We've got that Rider Pride!

Today was Rider Pride day at school. The kids wore Green and we made construction
paper halo hats and painted their faces. They all had green S's on each cheek. It looked so cute! And, of course, it was THE day that I forgot my camera at school. I had S's put on my cheeks after all of the students were done. When my face was done, one of my students looked at my and said,

"You looked like you were hit by an S Truck."

So great.

:) I love him.

I didn't have any Rider gear, but I had I wore this layering of clothes,

Baby #3 was really baby #1

As I will probably be talking about a whole lot in the next couple of months, I know 15 people who are going to have babies all before the end of February. One of my extended relatives had a baby boy on the 11th, and my cousins wife had a girl yesterday. Today when I got home from work, I had mail!! My friend and his wife had their baby in October, a beautiful baby boy! Yet another reason for me to look forward to our annual trip to Edmonton!!!

I'm so happy for them!

Monday night, hopefully curse free

I sent this e-mail out, and have also advertised it at both works. No one has replied.

Hi,
I was wondering if you have any plans for the evening of Monday, November19th. I was wondering because I am having a Spa Party (the web site is http://www.beauticontrol.com/) in a couple of weeks. I highly recommend their products.Please don't feel that you have to come and buy something, there is absolutely no pressure. It should be a evening of fun, food. some freebies and friends! It starts at 7 and goes until 9.

I hope you can make it!

I also have a curse. I can invite 100 people to something and 2 might show up. Seriously, to everything I plan. I am only inviting family. It is so frustrating. I makes me feel like such a loser.

Music is good, but where would it be without videos

That was a conversation that a couple of us had at work tonight. It really got me thinking. I love videos, but not necessarily the song. Here are my list of top 15,



The sweetest video (and song) ever, in my opinion.



Very cool video. It's kind of timeless.



This video creeped the cookies out of me when I was little. Now it's just funny.




Greatest Christmas song ever. The video is super fun!



Julia Roberts and Dave Matthews.



This is why I LOVE Dean Martin.





This song is getting played at every part of my life.



This is just a funny video.



They're all so beautiful in this video.They all look like they're having so much fun with each other. I know all of the choreography to this song.



I think that Fergie is just great.



I love this video, so well done.



becasue you're mine...




sweet little number.



I hope the class I take is this fun!



and finally...

Spice Up Your Life!

I love this!

random Friday

It is -2 today. Get out the long underwear.

I took the day off of work today, both works. I had a really bad (lights off and a blanket over my head) migraine last night. It started at about 10:00 in the evening. It planned itself well, because I was just about to go to bed anyway. I watched Grey's at my sisters last night and saw her new nephew. Grey's = very good. I think that I may have said this before, but I think that the reconciliation of the O'Malley's will take the rest of the season. It was a good, solid episode. I loved Baily and her school girl flirting. The nephew = So beautiful. I got to hold him, which I love. Now the shower of babies has begun. My cousins wife is due anyday, as is my friends wife.

I can hardly wait to see this,



Tonight I am going to a 'Ladies Night'. I am quite excited. One of the Nurses at the hospital invited me. It is at a fancy restaurant and it should be very fun! I have never been to one of these, so I am not sure what to expect. I really get along great with the Nurses that I work with at the Hospital, they are such wonderful people. Here begins the season of Christmas parties, which I love. I have 3 for the school, and I don't know how many, if any, for the Hospital, and then of course, my sisters annual Christmas party. So exciting!



This is a working weekend, which is fine because I love working. I don't think that I work too much. I love my jobs and they just happen to pay me well.

And here ends my add post.

not my baby news

So, as I have told you before, I know 13 pregnant women that are due between now and the end of February. An extended relative (my sisters siter-in-law, I don't know what that would make her to me) was due last Saturday, and my cousins wife is due today. I say WAS because she. still. hasn't. had. the. baby. Her water broke on Friday morning.I saw them when I was at work this weekend, poor girl.

Having babies actually scares me. I know that I work with children and I love children and I am good with them, but they all belong to other people. I think that it is better to become an Auntie first, because then you can practise. Then I could practise all I want, like I do with other things (like running, pervs.)

People always ask my, and assume, that my job at the Hospital is boring and/or super easy. Umm, no, it's very hard, and it's not for everyone. Last night, security was there all night, and the cops were there about 3 times, all in 12 hrs. I usually read a book during a 12 hr shift, I did during every shift I worked in the summer. On a super busy night (Friday) I only read the last 4 chapters of Peaceful Warrior
and last night I read all about Johnny Cash
They are both super good books, I highly recommend them. There is SO much more in Cash than Walk The Line could have ever touched on.


Well, I'm off to the gym. Have a great weekend!

I thought that I had to work tonight

I went into work early, and realized that I wasn't scheduled. So I stayed until the night relief came on, and then I left.

I am now watching Grey's (where I think they should add some Sitters {Client Attendants} to the staff)and drinking Red wine that I got from a friend last weekend.
I just have to say that Gizzie is so awkward It's from Australia and dated 2002, so I think that it should be good. The thing is, I've lost my drinking "touch".I used to drink like any other young person, go to the bar, beers with my friends, etc. One night, it landed me in the Hospital and I could have died. After that, I quit completely, which brought down my tolerance level. Now, when I drink 2 glasses of wine or 1/2 a bottle of beer, I'm done for the night. I think I just need to drink it with someone, and know how to.

School was great today. We had a beautiful Remembrance Day ceremony, I cried. I'll be sleeping through Remembrance Day, becasue I work the night shift the night before, so I'll post this now,

This is such a beautiful song.

so many working titles

Monday.

It sure was. Monday is the day that I usually wake up late, and promise myself that I am going to come home and go to sleep right after work. It never happens. Monday at work is like every other day. Balancing the 4 different students that I work with. Today was really good, almost all of my students had pretty good days. I am trying to go without starting my day with a big coffee, that lasted until I got to work today.

My evenings vary, I have to work tonight, which is fine with me. I got a call today at work and my 2nd job scheduled me for quite a few shifts in the coming weeks. yay for Christmas money. My sweetheart is also working, so that's ok. Work is first priority for both of us, which is a great combination (better than the alternative).

My class that I was going to start tommorow was cancelled. Boo-urns.

I am having a Spa Party in a couple of weeks. So, in preparation for it, I have decieded to freeze my Halloween candy that I have left. That should be a hit with a room full (hopefully) of women. Hopefully my curse will be broken with this get together. I could invite everyone I know and no one would come I have a curse of this. If you are going to be in my neck of the woods and would like more information, just ask!

Last night, after my company had left, I decieded to decorate my apartment for Christmas. My Dad had brought a new tree over for me. I will post pictures when it is all done. It is mostly all done, but I don't have lights up.

and with that, I am off to my parents and then to work. Have a good one!

:)

I wonder if McSteamy did his work

The best thing you can do is find someone that loves you for exactly what you are.

supp tommorow

I am having people over for dinner tommorow (family and a few family friends) and I have hit a wall with what to make them. I do cook very well (my skills have surprising sharpened over the past year), I just don't know what to make.
My Mom said to me,

Mom - "Just make your tortellini."

Me - "No, I make it all the time. I'm not a pasta girl."

Mom - "Well, whenever people come over to my house, they always expect to have perogies, and I'm not a perogie girl."

She IS Ukranian.

I'm sure I'll find something. I'm just putting too much pressure on myself.
