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!

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.

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.

"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."

eeeek!

Just Married
Filed under: Z List






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!
