Busy busy

Back for another crazy week of work...I get July 1st and 2nd off!!! OK, now I've jinxed it and I'm likely to get called in...of course, I can refuse :) Plans are for a BBQ at my place on Canada Day. I'm excited!

I spent the day hanging my new art work (abstract paintings from ebay), potting my new plants, and hanging out at the dentist. That part wasn't so fun, but I did enjoy the freezing. I don't even know if they used a needle. I barely felt anything. My mouth was thus frozen for the next 4 hours. I splurged on death food for the first time in ages and now am regretting it. I must remember this blog for future cravings.







Painting over my couch...it's 4'x3' in total.

Oh, and it was Craig's birthday today and I didn't get to talk to him. He turned 21!!! Insane, I know!!! I sent him a text in the morning...he's not a morning person so I chose not to go there and it was 6am your time. He decided to go see Transformers tonight so I didn't get to hear his voice. Well, perhaps I'll give him a shout tomorrow.

I'm working so I guess I'll get back to it. The systems all seem to crash on my shift lately so it makes more work for me...stupid computers!! Have a good one y'all!

Hiya folks!

Hola! Life in Yellowknife is picking up a bit. We think it's getting nice. Hard to say because one day it gets to 20 and windy, but the next it's 6 and rainy/cloudy. Ah, what can you do about the weather?

Soccer season just started and once again I'm on the team that gets walloped 12-1 on a regular basis. We get to play the team we actually beat on Sunday so there should be a good turn out. haha. I played the full 80 minutes last game out in the field and could still feel the pain 3 days later :)

Work has been insane. It's not that it's busy, it's that we have no staff and we work obscene amounts of overtime. Now I know I shouldn't complain since there are a lot of people out of work and wishing they were in my shoes, but it's summer and summer doesn't last long here so I'd like to get to experience a little of it.

I bought a BBQ, then lost my client card and my credit card so I still don't have a propane tank :( The BBQing will commence shortly :)

I've been doing a lot of reading lately and looking into info about adult children of alcoholics. I really wish I'd checked this out earlier because it really explains a lot. Should be an interesting time ahead while I delve further into it.

So that's what's happening up here. Hope you're all enjoying the summer :)
