Just thought you should know

This is my boyfriend.
He cares about my family and not hurting me.
I love him.

Let's love Miss M day

Today I wore my favorite-est ever black Old Navy strapless sun dress with a black cardigan. Very simple and cute. I slept in a little, so I didn't have a lot of time to spend on my face. My hair washed washed and worn, which made it curly, which I am wearing more and more these days. I headed out of my building and picked up a coffee at the Roastery . Ready to start the day.

When I got to school, some older girls commented on my black Mac & Jac sunglasses.

then,

one of my students told me that I looked really pretty. Thanks.

then,

One of my co-workers told me that I look nice and summery.

then,

one of my students told me that I smelt happy (I wore allure today, not happy).

then,

another student told me that they like my eyes.

I was going to bake a couple of Saskatoon Pies for my class,
but they didn't have Saskatoon berries anywhere last night,
so my boyfriend bought the class a couple of pumpkin pies,

and some of then made him Thank You cards.

I really didn't think I was that special.


Oh,
and I'm writing a children's book.

Hi again

I'm back in the blogging
game,
and fabulous!

umm...Hi

I just realized I haven't posted in forever. I am on my way to sleep becasue I work early and I am in crankyville.

I hope that you are having a great summer.

:)

LOVED IT!!

Are you going to take your meds?

pictures of my yesterday

My surprise birthday party!

My family threw me a surprise birthday party tonight. They had it at a my parents friends house. Nothing fancy, a BBQ and cake, and I got a laundry hamper...FILLED WITH 30 GIFTS!!!




It was very great!

sometimes life is just...

Saskatoon's BEST summer event!

Cosmopolitans and Fancy Bags

Happy Birthday to me.

It's been a long time

My summer has been quite busy. We (my wonderful boyfriend and I) went to the lake for the day on June 30, and I have been working almost everyday since.

Tonight, we are going to a movie. Tommorow, my sister (who's birthday is tommorow) and I and a bunch of other people are going for lunch for our birthdays.
Thursday, I am bringing in 30 with Cosmopolitans and White Chocolate brownies with a bunch of people at Moxies.
Friday is my birthday!

That's all folks.

I'm too uncoordinated to do this right now.

summer so far

School's Out.
Work is slow.
Money is blah.
Went to the lake with my boyfriend. :)
I'm addicted to Facebook like a pimp to crack.
Lovin this hot weather.
Going to the fireworks tonight.
Wishing everyone a Happy Canada Day!

I feel like a bad mother, but it will go away

I haven't purposely not blogged for a long time. I have been really busy.

School is done this Wednesday for the students and Friday for the staff. It has been a good, strengthening year. It may be the last year that I will be with my kids (I was with them in Kindergarten and Grade 1). I am hoping to get lots of work this summer, so far I haven't heard anything from any of the jobs that I have applied for, but there's always sitting.

I have started seeing someone, and it's going very great.

That is, really, all.

Have a great weekend!

long time

I just thought I'd say Hi,
before I melt away into a get rid of this migraine sleep.
A sleep and then a run (and maybe a Starbucks),
and I should be good.

I told my cousin I would update...

so I probably should.

I just want to start by saying that my Limewire is acting really weird.

This weekend was a good one.

Friday I got a pedicure, manicure ands gel nails. My friend Marj did them. They're excellent, although I am still getting use to them.

After that I was supposed to go and see my friend J, who was in a team for the Cancer Society's Relay for Life, but I was a little longer at Marj's than I thought I would be. I called my friend Candace and we went out. It was my brothers birthday, so we went to meet up with him and his friends for a bit. After that, we went to Lydia's and Bud's. Much fun was had.

Saturday, I did laundry and went to the Salon. I had my eyebrows done, and then I was just going to get my haircut, because the girl who does my hair wouldn't have enough time, I was told when I made the appointment. So...I made an appointment with my sisters hairstylist. I love the girl that does my hair, but she is going to be going to Mat leave soon, so it's good to have a backup. She seems to fun, I am seeing her on the 24th.

Today I did some running around and now I am just starting to get ready for work. It seems odd that I didn't work all weekend. But I am tonight, and it's still the weekend so...

No Sex and the City movie for me this weekend. I am just halfway through season 3, and I want to finish it all before I see the movie. Maybe I'll go on my birthday, if I'm not work, which I hope to be.

I wish I had a patio. It's gorgeous outside.

Happy....!!!

Sex And The City Day!!

tomorrow.

:)

Guess what time of the year it is!

Flip flop and tank top season!!

26 more days!

My student and I figured out today that there is 8 more school days of Grade 1 and 18 school days of Grade 1 in June. Amazing.

I can hardly wait.

I am going to be applying for another job this week. It is another one at the Hospital that will keep me busy and away from both UI and The Lake this summer.

Summer in scrubs.

Not much else is new. Having some stress with the men in my life. But it's not worth talking about.

I hope everything is coming up Millhouse for you!

I thought they were special

On Thursday, we had a talent show at school. The staff did a really good version of "Summer Nights" from Grease. A few of the staff were dressed in 60's atire. The Teacher that I work with was wearing a poddle skirt, and had her hair in a ribbon. The students were sitting against the wall after the bell rang and the Teacher came out and told the students why she was dressed special and what the special event was about. When the students started to make their way into the classroom, one of my cute as a button little boys stopped in front of me and said,

"You're not wearing anything special."

:)

(I was wearing my lululemons and a top from Old Navy).

It was a very good day

I had a good day. I got a bunch of free stuff last night and had a good time with some friends. When I came home, I had a great conversation with a great friend, and then fell into one of those I-don't-know-how-I-fell-asleep-sleeps. I slept in-ish and got ready for work. One of the gifts that I got last night was wonderful Margarita smeeling body lotion, so I used it this morning.

When I got to work, one of my students and I were working in the hall, and he touched my leg (I was wearing a skirt). I laughed when he was taken a back by the lotion on my leg. He smelt his hand and told my that I "smell like the sun".

After recess I took another student for a walk. She was holding my hand and out of the blue dug her nose into my arm. I thought that she was wiping her nose on me, so I asked her what she was doing. She giggled and said "You smell like a flower."

Onto the afternoon. I took a group of students out into the hall to do small group work. One of the girls looked at my arms and legs with a big smile on her face and said,

"It looks like you have brand new skin. It's so shiny."

:)

I did some running around after school and then did some Yoga. Now, I am finishing off the evening watching Sex and the City re runs and drinking a latte. I also named my latte maker. Taylor, after the charecter in the song "Taylor, the Latte boy" by Kristin Chenoweth.

I liked today.

another day off

I took the day off today becasue I was not well, and becasue I had a headache. I woke up around noon, confined to my apartment for various reasons. I cleaned my place a bit, watched and tok pictures of city construction workers outside of my building laying ashphalt (ONLY becasue the Kindergarten class studies a PWIM picture of road construction). I tired to get a hold of a friend that I had tentative plans with last night. I watched a bunch of Sex and the City, and I must say, I thought that Mr. Big was a lot more mysterious than he is.

And with that, I'll go and get ready for my evening.

:)

Goodness, they're still so HOT!

weekend update.

I came home from work sick today. I wasn't really sick sick, I had trouble walking and felt a little light headed. It's a long and complicated story.

I have been watching 'Sex and the City' reruns all afternoon, which is really the only thing that I could do front my couch, where I set up camp. I had only ever watched the very last episode when I was at my nanny job one night and the kids had gone to bed. I do remember crying at the end becasue I didn't want it to go off the air.

My weekend was good, I worked on Saturday and then Sunday was Mothers Day. I got my Mom a bunch of products from the company that I don't push anymore, which she really enjoyed. At first, I was going to have everyone (7) over for dinner. I woke up early and cleaned my apartment - not regular cleaning, "Mom's coming over" cleaning . My family was at the lake for the weekend, and my Mom called me and said that Dad would be staying out of town and that one of my siblings had plans. We changed plans to go out to eat, but ended up ordering in at my parents place.

Talk about good planning.

:)

I wrote my final for Medical Termonology this week

It was super hard.

It was about 7 pgs and very hard.

The last pages had a bunch of Acronyms. Our Teacher told us not to study, but just to glance at that part of the text a couple of days.

One of the acronyms was RBC. I didn't know it, so I left it blank.
When the exam was over, I waited for a friend of mine to be done.
I asked her,

What does RBC stand for?

and she said,

"I sure hope it stands for Royal Bank of Canada, becasue that's what I wrote!"

My students love that I teach them words that I learn in my med, term. class.

I love the new episodes. Meredith is grown up, which is kind of hard to get used to.
Christina is trying to break out of her robot shell and become a human.
It's so funny.
I think that I am turning into a Robot,
becasue I watch shows like this, and I watch couples in my rear view mirror,
and honestly almost get physically ill.
I couldn't imagine wanting to be with someone.
I think dating is a scam.
There is a part of me that thinks about someone a lot,
but it's too much to write about on here.


I think my happy is broken.

I love working at the Hospital.
I like working and working and working.

I just get like this sometimes.
I just need to be patient.

I'm sure it is hard, Laker Girl

wow.

I took a day

Too bad I can't really enjoy it becasue I have a problem with starting and finishing my assignment for my class (which I only have 2 weeks left of). I am doing an assignment on Leukemia.

My weekend was good, kind of relaxing. I relaized that I can't hold babies at all, becasue they all end up like this,




or this





so no babies for me.


Also, I'll be working even more now becasue I recieved a letter that my rent is going up again.

Have a good one!

My weekend of NOT working

My weekend was kind of a blur, becasue even though I didn't work, it was very busy.

We had a surprise birthday party for my Dad. So there was lots of errand running and secrets. I worked Friday night, while all of the relatives were coming into town. Did running around on Saturday with my Dad's cousin who was staying at my place. My Dad was surprised with his party.












I hope that video works, my computer is doing silly things.

There was a pancake breakfast this morning. I did laundrey at my parents house and now I am back to work on my assignment for class and study.

See how boring I am when I don't work?

but not exactly how I would like to spend it.

I haven't posted lately becasue I have been....

just never mind (or guess) where I have been.

But guess what?

I. Have. The. Whole. Weekend. Off.

A special post coming on Sunday night,
let me tell you.

:)

I am quitting

I am quitting my spa business. I hate it. There is too much pressure and my spas are ALWAYS cancelled. I will keep my beautipage up (in case people that live far away want to look for something specific. I will also be ordering for family and friends. But no more Spas. They're very stressful and put too much pressure on me.

I hate it.

I'm done.

Man, I needed to get that out.

Thanks.

I will

I had a date on Saturday with a wonderful man who came back into my life after 4 years of being apart. We met back up again on New Years Eve. We just hung out on Saturday and caught up on a lot.

It was wonderful.

:)

No More Mr. Washington

No Washington for my birthday,
now,
or on my birthday
or ever.

That's ok.

:D

Maybe the lake, or Edmonton.

:)

*sings* What Time Is It?

can't wait for the forcasted snow.

Yay for Scott for being back in the BCCR! (Sorry, BAD Beatles reference there).

Belle went in for a Rhinoplasty on Wednesday (when I explained the story (that my Mom hit my car and it has a scratch on the front of it) and the Medical definition of Nose to them, they laughed a lot). I HATED my loner, a lot. It was a Red Nissan Sentra. I like the 4 door. And yes, I know that means I'm getting old.

I finally had a night off tonight, and I did nothing. I almost need 2 days off, or 2 large chunks of one day off. I think that's sctretching it.

I am letting my hair go grey. I have a ton of it. Pay attention of exhibit A,



It's not becasue I want to let it go grey, it's becasue I don't have time to get it colored. Everyone has said to me "Let the grey come in."

Blah. I'll probably get it dyed next month.

If it seems like I am blabbering on and making no sense. It's becasue I am super tired.

Good night.

:)

really, 35??

A big thanks you to anyone who is still reading this. After 35 posts, I am the worst promise maker and breaker. I still haven't gotten the swag bags out. I will be sending a little something extra, along with the swag bags out this weekend (probably Friday). Time has not been on my side, but then again, I am choosing to be so busy. I have a spa this week! YAY! My first one ever that I will be doing by myself. It is the week of one things.
One,

-meeting about the mens spa that we are having in June.
-class
-shift booked for (so far)
-rental car that I will be getting to drive while Belle goes to have rhinoplasty
-friend who is going to be getting a whack of stuff from BC this week
-night of REALLY good sleep (hopefully)
-spa
-date. :D
-farewekk dinner for a co worker
-trip out of town
-baptism for my cousins daughter
-birthday party.


and 1 REALLY tired girl. I am going to go and have a nap.

This is my pause

I am sitting here, on a Friday night, relaxing. I know. I couldn't believe it either. I have been crazy busy for the past couple of weeks and I finally had some down time. I wasn't supposed to. I was supposed to work until midnight. As it seemed to be my lucky day today, becasue I was relieved 4 hrs early. It is really a very good feeling when I get off of work 4 hrs early and can still walk to my car in the day light.

By the way, this is where I am spending all of my time, away from the other place I spend a cut out amount of time.





Funny story. We had to have security in one night (tey're in lots actually). So I said to one of the nurses before she called them the first time,

"Make sure you get hot ones."

She delivered. Well, not really, they were just the ones that came - 4 times. :)

Then, we needed a room cleaned. She delivered on that too.

It was so funny.

We have an art club at school, and last night they had a showcase for their parents and invited guests. One of my little cutie students and I had this conversation when he was leaving.

Me - "Have a good night, see you tomorrrow."

Student - "Tomorrow? Don't you mean tonight?"

Me - "Oh, I can't come. I'm so sorry. I have to work."

Student (shifting eyed to the floor) "Oh...I thought that you would come."

Me - "What time does it start?"

Student - "It starts at 6:00."

Me - "I don't start until 7:30. I could come for a little bit before I go to work."

Student - "Awesome! (big smile) See you tonight Miss M."

I was called in early 1/2 hr later.

I need a personal assistant...and a money tree

Last weekend - worked.
Monday - worked and then had a meetig out of town.
Tuesday - worked and had class.
Wednesday - worked and then went out for dinner and a movie for my Dad's birthday.
Thursday - worked and worked.
Friday - worked and worked.
Saturday - work and then have a birthday party for my Dad/
Sunday - nothing is open so I can't do any of my errands.

I love being busy, but when a person gets to a certain point, it just gets gross. I have had to reschedule my color, trim and wax appointments twice.

I haven't been able to send in my BC order and get it by my spa on Thursday.

It Is driving me nuts.

This coming week is just as bad. Meetings, class, work, colors and wax, spa, trip out of town.

I am so sorry. The swag bags are getting better.

blah.

so ya, personal assistant. I'm taking applications.

They still got it. :)

Nice,
I stil remember having a sleepover at my friend Jills house and watching the Disney special that they did.
It was awesome.
I still have the program from their show when they came to town.

:)

my face is really not a completely different color than my face

I have a secret

come closer, I have to whisper it to you.
You can't tell anyone else,
becasue I don't want anyone else to know.
In July...
it's my birthday.

SSSHHHH!! Don't smile, or someone will know somethings up.

Stuff is happening right now in my life with someone,
but I'd really like it to work out.
Becasue we had talked about going somewhere in the summer.

That would be great.
MMMmmmm....Helly Hansen, IKEA, iHop, Abercrombie & Fitch, Kenneth Cole, Target,
Ruehl No.925, Starbucks.



nice.

Can you guess where we may go?

I just hope things work out. I don't like being at a stand still.

It's finally beginning to look like spring

It's funny how when you read a friend status on Facebook, you become interested and click to their blog to find the true, insight of their status, and find no information at all about the status.

However, I did find this. I'm not doing this as a "I stole this from" I just want to see the pictures. (I searched photobucket, google and youtube

new link new link na na na na na na

My friend Jason just made a blog,
Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out.

:)

boystuff

Men don't hurt me,
it's not like I don't know what they want (yuckie for that being the only thing that they want)
it's just this,

put your guard down,
I won't hurt you.
Don't be all friggin confusing,
when you don't have to be,
it just confuses me.

AND
(ha ha, I just found this out)
when the cahnce is there,
so for it!

AND
babies learn to walk in less that 8 months,
we are past the baby steps stage.

oi.
When I said ever,
I meant ever.

This is why I haven't been around forever.

Saturday - worked a 12 on a floor.
Sunday - worked a 16 on psych.
Monday - worked a 16 on psych.
Tuesday - worked a 12 on psych.

I am so tired but I could totally go for Denny's.

and you know you have worked too much when you're updating your blog and you are slightly disgusted by how long your leg hair is.

On a sad note,
my neighbour passed away today. My parents and his wife and him were very good friends for a lot of years. We go over to their house every Christmas eve after we are done opening our gifts. On Christmas, as we were leaving, he said to my sister (before she was married, of course),

"When you get a man, get a good one...don't get a pile of shit."

and that she did!

:)

just one sentence.

I can't say more more than one sentence about this without going into writing the longest blog post ever. So I will stick with this one sentence.

Men are the most friggin confusing and frustrating creatures I have ever come accross.

wtf?

gathering a pile of rocks to throw at them

I'm taking a break from dating for a while,
like ever.

he probably does.

Yesterday, in my 'trying to make my day better than yesterday' thought process, I told my Grade 1 students that I was feeling grumpy and that if they were quiet while the Teacher was busy in the hallway, I would turn on some music.

*flashback*
I was with most of these students last year, because I was in 2 Kindergarten classes during the day. So, at the end of the year, I made all of them mixes of different music that they had learnt, heard throughout the year.

They started working quietly. So I put on a mix that I made this year, and this song started playing,

most of the students recognized it and started half singing. One boy came up to me and said,

"This is the Saskatchewan song. You put it on the cd you made for the class at the end of Kindergarten. I still listen to it everyday after school."

and there you have it.

:)

Day instantly bettered and heart instantly warmed.

all I need is a couple days off

I am not getting called by the Hospital to work, i HAD 5 Spas booked this month, and so far I have had to cancel 4 of them. I have no money, no gas, I haven't had groceries all month, plus class is stressing me out.

That is all.

you have no idea (sorry about the ad before hand)

tonight I would not help anyone

I would be the worst nurse tonight. My studying is sucking tonight. I have no concentration for my little blue, yellow and pink textbook, even though I should be all hardcore.

I'm totally attention deficit tonight. Lots of thoughts rolling around in there.
I'm thinking about my co-workers that came over today for a baby social. It was cute. I couldn't find my camera, so I used a cheapo one that I got at Canadian Tire (it was a promo and came with a flashlight). I took all of the pictures but couldn't download them becasue I needed to use the installation disc, which DID NOT come with the camera. Nice work.

I'm thinking about the migraine that I had and hid so well today. I was supposed to work, but didn't. I need to find time to go to the gym more, becsue that helps my migraines. and water, lots of water helps. Sleep as well. Which reminds me, I should fill my water bottle for tomorrow.

I am thinking about the 3 possibly 4 spas that I may be doing by the end of the month. I have never done spa by myself, so it's kind of exciting and kind of scary. This spa - ing is not something that I would do full time, but I like doing it on a casual basis. It's fun, and better if I can make some money on the side.

I'm thinking about work. I haven't worked at the Hospital in 2 weeks, that's a pay period. I hope that I get work soon. I miss work.

I am thinking about a boy that makes me smile, my students that make me smile, my family that makes me smile, my friends that make me smile, and the small children and babies that make me smile.

and I'm thinking about Josh Groban.

I'm thinking that the busy life has begun.

a rareity

Not much to say.
I am making the swag bags right now and it is so much fun!

I have something coming on Tuesday to put in them,
so I will be mailing them out on Wednesday,
for sure for sure.

How was your week?

I'm done with the baby posts for a while...after this one

No more baby news until about summer.

In other news, I won a free coffee on roll up the rim. My class that I was going to start taking tonight was cancelled, due to lack of interest.

I know, nothing can top baby news.

Shameless plug

Please at least click this (I promise there are no viruses).

kissy kiss

Not to mention the roller coaster drama that is my dating life.

Boo-urns for March so far

So,
Bron, Erik, Michael and Ali,
I have to mail your swag in 2 parts,
becasue one of the parts isn't ready yet.
Erik, I asked for your shirt size becasue one of the parts of the swag is only useful for those who live in Canada. So I'm making you something else.

Scott, you'll get your if you come west in April.

Just thought I should let everyone know that.
I could wait until the end of the month, and mail it all then.
But I want to keep my promise of swag delivery.

I'm a nerd. I know my students harshly disagreed with me today while we were having a conversation about High School Musical. But if they only knew.

:)

I. See. Them. Everywhere.

Backtrack to Valentines Day...

My students gave out High School Musical Valentines (I still have mine on my fridge). I told them that I had never seen it, and one little girl said,

Her - Miss. M, you have to home and watch it afterschool.

Me - I can't becasue I don't own it.

Her - You can get it off your computer.

Smart Cookie.

So today, I was at Wal-Mart. I am a 'check out the whole store if I have time sort of shopper'. Well, when I was in the toy section, I saw one of my students. This is how the conversation went,

Her - Hi Miss. M. What are you doing here?

Me - I'm just picking up s few things.

Her - Are you buying High School Musical stuff becasue we said that you would like the movie?

Me - No, just paper towels and other boring grown up things.

Her - I think you are. *smiles*

Her Mom - Let's go.

Her - Ok, bye Miss. M. If you want to buy the movie, it's over where the rest of the movies are. *giggles*

So cute.

For your information, I didn't but the movie.
(I have it on my computer).

Daily dose of child cuteness

I was out on supervision today and one of my students ran towards a small patch of cement and a little tuff of grass beside it. They just knelt there and watched in amazement. I thought that maybe there was glass or something that they didn't want to touch. When I walked over, the student looked up, smiled and said,

"Look Miss M, spring is growing. Maybe if we look after it, it will grow bigger."

:)

I love those kids.

I should be studying but...

I have ADD and can only do that for so long.

I NEVER thought that I would like going back to school as much as I do. The classes are lots of fun and informative. Tere are all women in the class, so it's makes it kind of interesting that way. I am quite excited for when I start the RPN course. It's so intersting. Although, I do admit it, there are times when I catch myself nodding off.

Next Tuesday, an hr after my class ends, I will be starting an exercise class. I should sleep good then.

Oh, and by the way,
the swag will be mailed out this coming Tuesday.

I won a free coffee on Roll Up The Rim today. Becasue of my crazy arthritic hands, I can only bite up the rim. That will probably loose me a prize. I checked out my prize in front of one of my little girls. This is how the conversation went,

Me - Maybe I'll win a car

Her - smiles and shrugs

roll up the rim

Me - I won a coffee.

Her - A coffee is better than winning a car becasue now you don't have to pay for the coffee becasue it's free.

lol

Now, back to studying.

I am the poster child for ADD.

Happy hump day randomness.

Sometimes a post is so amazingly cute and who cares if it's about celebraties, it made my day.


I was suppose to work my magic at a spa tonight, but it was cancelled.
My Belle is making noises, she was hurt a couple of weeks ago.
I don't think I want to have children.
Tomorrow is Thursday.

More later, off to study...

another girl

My friend from elementaty school had a baby girl today.
Her name is Sequoia.

:)

Aaawww...

Michael, you are a dear for calling me a young chick anything!

:)

I decieded that there must not be too many people who read my blog,
so everyone will recieve swag.

Swag will be mailed out next Tuesday.

scary dream

I had a horrible, and I mean HORRIBLE nightmare last night. I had a nightmare that I was beating on 4 different people at 4 different times. The worst thing was that the 4 people were exactly the same person. I was swearing and yelling too. I woke up sweating, dizzy, with a cramp in my calf and my arms hurt, and then I started to cry. It was quite a disturbing experience

It was the most horrible dream that I think I ever had.

100th post

Today is my 100th post!! Horray!!

I am going to have a 100 post giveaway. Like most days, I am afraid that no one will read this. So if you read this, comment and maybe add an obscure piece of information about me.

The swag will be good.

rrrrrrrrr

There are no cash prizes in Tim Hortons Roll Up The Rim contest this yearbecasue of this

Sure, do it on the year that I probably wouldn't blow the money.

or it could be becasue...

I am taking some time off. Which isn't necessarily a good thing, but it will make me better.

if I don't update for a couple days, it's becasue...

I am working at the school,
or
I am working at the Hospital,
or
I am studying for my class at the Hospital,
or
I may or may not have gotten another job (yes, I am single handedly keeping Saskatoons umemployment rate high)
or
I am doing a spa (if you're interested in anything, let me know),
or
I am sleeping.

Have a great weekend.

I love this.

This is the original.



I totally forgot that I know 2 other people that I know are pregnant. My friend from elementary school, who is due in a week. Also, my friend that I kinda sorta know.

2 more babies.

I am looking for the song,

It's driving me nuts.

I took this a couple days ago but...

It looks like the sun is spitting at Winter.

Another Baby

I got this e-mail from my friend Tim today. Congratulations.

:)

Kevin Robert is here!!! He joined us at 1:40PM and weighs in at 8 lbs, 10 oz.

hi back!

Now I see the light.

I am not a girly girl. I am the boy daughter, and my sister is the girl daughter (not physically, just in a matter of speaking. I have tried, especially in my 20's, to break my mold.

I have curly hair, which some girls would love, I straighten it all the time.
I own 2 skirts, one of which is denim.
I don't own ballet flats.
I don't own heels.
I just bought my first pair of lulu's.
I don't do pedicures, or manicures.
I won one purse....and I want another one.

Not just any this one, THIS this one,



Her name is re-run. So cute! Matt & Nats black nylon with dark brown stitching and & 'vintage' vegan leather trims, antique silver hardware and screw rivets, plaid lining, and main compartment with 2 zippers for access. Also features interior cell phone and pda pockets, and detachable key chain. Reusable protective pouch included.

I need that bag. I have one from Old Navy that I got from a friend for Christmas, but Grey needs a friend. Yes, I name things.

Here is me with the curlies,

ooops, I seem to have deleted the pictures. That's ok, here are some ups pictures (the best way that my curly hair should be worn).







Enough about me, how was your day?

hangin out at home, for Michael

This is what I do and I'm not pushing it.

I sell skin care. I'm not a crazy in-your-face pushy annoying Avon Lady. I talk about it ONLY if people bring it up. I have had spa parties, but only 2 in the past year, it's just not my thing. This is the company. Men have asked me about it too.

I love the stuff because I was an ugly ugly (seriously) looking woman from the ages of 14 - 27. I tried everything and finaly stumbled accross this. I like it.

I had better stop before this turns into an infomercial.

The point of this post...let's see, oh yes! One of my male friends (just about the only one that isn't causing me stress and drama) is coming over tonight and we are going to have a mini spa, and I'm quite excited!

He just text me and cancelled. boo-urns.

I had a migraine last night, this morning and early afternoon. I honestly don't know how I made it home from work. I slept until this afternoon and then went to the gym. My dr. told me a couple of months ago to exercise more, and that it would be good for my migraines. It feels pretty weird when I do that, but I did it this afternoon and things are pretty ok now.

hey, hey baby

I used to sing that hey babe song (the one from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack) to one of my students.

But enough sentimental recolections, ANOTHER BABY WAS BORN!

My friend and co-worker (the same people) had a baby girl on Saturday (that makes the score

-close friends wife - boy
-extended family member - boy
-cousins wife - girl
-family friend. - boy
-neighbours wife - boy
-cousin - girl
-co-worker (s) - boy
-co-worker (s) - girl
-co-workers wife (s)

-friend's fiance
*new*
-co-worker (s)
-co-workers wife (s)
-co-worker (h)
-good friend

5 - 3 for the boys.

The new baby girl is so cute and tiny.

all at once: "Aaaawwwwwww..."

squee squee! No baby's for me!

:)

What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle

I want this.





Off to eat, and then sleep, and then work tonight.
Such is my life.

:)

Working on the night train.

Tonight, I am working 12 hrs in lockdown. I'm SO excited!
Seriously, that was not meant to be sarcastic.
I love working at the Hospital,
the ward I work on is amazing.
The staff is great, the patients are interesting, experiences are very rewarding.
Which would be the reason why I am interested in becoming a Psychiatric Nurse.
Then, I can go from this,



to this,





and this




and somedays this,





and maybe even this,







OH LA LA!

Shout out (what are we still in the '90's Keri?) to my cousin Scott. Who is a really great, decent gentleman. He gave me some sweet thaks today. He knows me well, I like the sugar coated thanks jube jubes, rather than the plain ones.

My funny valentine

My Valentines this year was good. Valentines from the classes that I work in. Some of them even made Valentines for my Mom, who came to out class a couple of weeks ago and cooked for them. One of my students told me that he loved me. It was pretty cute.




My shirt.






My stash.




My personalized Valentines card.

Yess!!!

This man is the greatest! He was my high school principal, allowed me to graduate even though I didn't have enough credits. Then, when I became employed with the school board, he put me on the sub list, even though Kelsey had screwed up my marks. He still remembers me when he comes around to the school.

Rathwell named new public school board director
TheStarPhoenix.com
Published: Thursday, February 14, 2008

George Rathwell, a familiar face in the city's school system, has been named new director of the Saskatoon public school board, effective Aug. 1.

"We are extremely pleased that Mr. Rathwell put his name forward and that he has been chosen," said board chairperson Ray Morrison in a press release.

"We know the leadership of the organization will now pass from one very capable leader to another."

Dr. Jim Jutras, the current Director of Education, retires from his duties as Director effective July 31, 2008.

For the past four years, Rathwell has served as one of two Deputy Directors of Education.

"The Saskatoon Board of Education has established two learning priorities within its strategic plan. Our 'Literacy for Life' and 'Collegiate Renewal' priorities are proving to be an excellent focus for student learning and staff development," said Rathwell.

"We intend to continue these learning priorities and learning agenda for the educational benefit of our students and staff."

Rathwell has 26 years of experience in the Saskatoon public school system, serving as a collegiate teacher, vice-principal, principal, superintendent and deputy director. He also taught for two years in rural Saskatchewan and acted as a provincial educational consultant for one year.

Happy Valentines Day!

Just Married

Don't you love crazy people???

Diff'rent Strokes alum Gary Coleman has married some loser by the name of Shannon Price.

He's 40. She's 22.

It gets better!

The pair have only known each other just over FIVE MONTHS.

And it gets even better still!!!!

Gary tells Inside Edition that this is his first-time-ever romantic relationship.

"I never got the opportunity to be romantic or feel romantic with anyone," he says. "I wasn't saving myself, she just happened to be the one."

Bless his little, sex-deprived heart!

The couple's nuptials happened, "on a mountaintop," according to Coleman. "Nobody was around but the minister, preacher, the videographers, the photographer, the helicopter pilot and us. That was all that was there. There was nobody else.”

As for the 18 years between them, "I don't have issues with age, I have issues with intelligence," says Coleman. "She's more intelligent than I am, and that's what matters to me."

Price handles the sale of Coleman's memorabilia on e-Bay, and says that when she met him on the set of the movie Church Ball she wasn't aware of his fame.

"I didn't grow up with Diff'rent Strokes," she tells Inside Edition. "I actually didn't like watching TV when I was younger."

We expect them to be divorced within three months.

Why????

"We may go a week and not speak to each other," he says, while she claims, "He lets his anger conquer him sometimes. … He throws things around, and sometimes he throws it in my direction."

She adds, "I don't like the violence."

This is a reality TV show waiting to happen!

Yay for the Day!

RUEHL No. 925 finally has online shopping.

SQUUEEEEE!!

Back with new babies

I am back, from everything. Back from the Hospital seeing babies, back from not having a computer and back from Edmonton. I have added 2 babies to my collection since I last talked to you. My cousin had a baby girl on Wednesday,



Mattea Leigh Anne.


My co-worker had a baby boy, Nicholas Emerson Frank, on Friday. I REALLY like the name Emerson.

So now here's the score card.



-close friends wife - boy
-extended family member - boy
-cousins wife - girl
-family friend. - boy
-neighbours wife - boy
-cousin - girl
-co-worker (s) - boy
-co-workers wife (s)
-co-worker (s)
-friend's fiance
*new*
-co-worker (s)
-co-workers wife (s)
-co-worker (h)
-good friend

Like I said before, at lest none of these say, me....that would be some trouble.

My brother and his friend fixed my computer while I was gone and fixed it again when I thought something very minor was something very major. It good though, becasue out of it, they got food and free stuff, and I got 2 sales for the skin care line that I sell. They are going to each buy one of these sets

so it turned out good for all of us.

Edmonton was great, I GOT TO SEE MY BOYS! Highlight of my trip, and probably year. Unless something amazingly spectacular happens this year, nothing will top the time I spent with them. I used to work with their Dad at Shoppers and we have still kept in touch. It was great to visit with him and his wife, and to play with their boys.

"Boys, did you know that I'm a Teacher?"

Look of disbelief. "No you're not!"

"Oh, ok. What do you think I do?"

"You work with Daddy."

lol

Here's a picture of me and the youngest.



Yes, I close my eyes on almost every flash picture that is taken of me. And yes, I am wearing my brand new Abercrombie Hoodie that I bought in Edmonton in both pictures.
I love that store.

Have a good one!

blah stupid computer

My computer is messed up,
see my facebook.

sorry.

At least I can see across the street

This week has been a pretty cold one in Saskatoon. Sunday night, it snowed and I thought that for sure we would be gettting the 2008 version of the Blizzard of 2007. I didn't go out on Monday, becasue it was -50. Tuesday and Wednesday we had about 60 students show up. It doesn't make sense that there needs to be blowing snow, but not cold temperatures, for the school board to close schools.

On the upside, I was doing research with some of my students today Antarctica, and the it in between -125 and -250 there.

Now I don't feel so bad.

I'm sorry, it's been a long time

My life has been super busy. My car has gotten sick (poor Belle). I am dealing with stuff with boys, work, this trip to Edmonton. I have also started selling
Beauti Control and I love them!

If you would like anything, you can let me know.

Oh! and baby news,

My neighbours wife had a baby boy,
Brody William.

Baby #5!

:)

Have a great weekend!

another weekend

I just came accross this

I'm good with David Backham being Prince Charming, but J-Lo and hubby as Aladin and Jasmine? Not so much. Whoppi as Genie. Please stop while you're ahead.



Now THAT'S what I'm talking about.


Less than a week until our trip to Edmonton,
I am So pumped.
I FINALLY get to see the boys!
So exciting!!!

Heath Ledger

I'm sure this is how sweet Michelle Williams feels about all of the media coverage.

clothes ruehl

I used to be big into American Eagle clothes. Then, my sister introduced me to Old Navy. I like their clothes, really comfy, reasonably priced, and I fit a size smaller. Then, a heard about Abercrombie & Fitch, which I have just started buying some clothes from (for about the past year). They're really great. Sexy, comfy and they smell like sex. Unfortunetly, the only store is in Edmonton, which I only visit once a year. I was going to post a picture of me in a pair of their jeans, in which I look hot, but I deleted it becasue I was with the ex in it.

First I saw this,
Abercrombie & Fitch

Then I read up on this,
Other Abercrombie & Fitch Co. brands

so I went here

and read about this online shopping stuff

and now, I want Ryah in Chocolate

Adore adore, it's baby #4 and Meredith Grey is the reason neither of us are in a relationship.

Baby #4 had been born. His name is Lucas, and, for those that remember this
there are a few more people that can be added onto it. Here is the new list,


-close friends wife - boy
-extended family member - boy
-cousins wife - girl
-family friend. - boy
-co-worker (s)
-neighbours wife
-cousin
-co-workers wife (s)
-co-worker (s)
-friend's fiance
*new*
-co-worker (s)
-co-workers wife (s)
-co-worker (h)
-good friend

at lest none of these say, me....that would be some trouble.

Last night, I watched Grey's Anatomy (you have to push play) . What a sweet episode. I always like reading Ali's review of the show, but she hasn't talked about it yet.



I liked that something huge is happening to Beily. I like that George and Lexi may be roomates. I really love McSteamy. And I love that this was the last show in I don't know how long, because it would be a crappy season ender.

nobody said it was easy

I'm 29.
I will be 30 in July. I have different opinions about this.
It is just a number, but a weird number.
It feels weird to say "I'm going to be 30.", like some sort of new skin should come over me.
Even now, things have a different angle to them.
This doesn't really matter to me, becasue it's not a race,
but I know, let me count..
14 people between November 07 and August 08 having babies.
It just seems like a lot.
I have even started using skin creams and things like that,
I never did that in my 20's.
I have 2 long term goals (or as I like to say "by 40")
one is to become and RPN and the other is to buy a house.
I think that these are easily attainable goals.
I think that I am going to go to the lake on the 10th,
and stay there for a couple of days.
30 just sounds so much more grown up,
like you can't blame anything on your 20's anymore.
Relationships are messed up at this age,
they use up a lot of your heart energy.

My last couple of days

I went into work today and I wasn't even scheduled.

silly me.

but...
I sure do work at 7:30 tomorrow morning and I'm up past midnight.
I have decieded that I am going to quit going to the gym that I have been a member at for the past year. I am going to switch to a better one. It's closer to home, cheaper, and offers excellent classes (like Hot Yoga).

I downloaded a WHOLE bunch of wonderful classical music tonight, except the one that I was looking for. It is the one that is always played in the background of movies whenever there is a wedding/fancy scene.

na na na na na na na
na
na na na na

like that was lots of help.

I think Beethovan composed it.

Good Night.

No resolutions, just words

Discipline.
Change.
Love.

They can all be used in all parts of my life.

I've been away becasue...

a very amazing thing has happened in my life.
