Mhmmmm

So once again I've been busy with life. I just became the Store Manager of Black's Photo and it keeps me busy all day every day pretty much. I don't mind the work at all though, I enjoy the people I work with and the customers are pleasant as well. Today was a "just me and my man" kind of day. We went out for lunch, went for a long walk down by the river, had a little ice cream and then watched the movie "Soul Surfer" which by the way is GREAT! So inspirational. I of course cried most of the time. lol We just celebrated our 2 year anniversary of being together a few weeks ago. I bought him a hockey figurine and a book he wanted and he got me a frame collage with photos of stuff we have knocked off his bucket list and he also wrote me a note with it as well which tied the whole thing together. I don't realize it enough but I really do need to take a step back more often and appreciate what I have and who I have in my life. Jennifer and Bay are such good kids. I love them more than they know and am so proud of everything they have done up until now and can't wait to see what else they will accomplish in life. Turk is still enjoying his job at Sport Chek, just wish more money would come with all the hard work he does. I know in the end all his work will pay off, it's just hard to live paycheck to paycheck all the time.

Turk has also playing slow-pitch again (he didn't find a team last year) and Bay is playing ball hockey twice a week. So of course we have been busy with that as well. Watching them makes me want to be part of a rec team or something. It just looks like so much fun. :P Alright well I better get ready for bed. Early day tomorrow for work. Hope all of you are doing well too! Miss you!

So tired...

So today I cleaned up the basement. I was so sweaty, sore and now tired. :( What really needs to be done is Turk and the kids going through their boxes. I can't throw anything out in case it has a memory attachment to it. I got rid of some of my stuff though which was good. Wish I had the energy to do the whole house but after having 2 extra kids in the house it takes a lot out of you.

It was great though having the girls here. We got to do some fun things like crafts, see Tangled in the theater, Ruckers, and Toys R Us, etc. Nice to hear the laughs and see the smiles again.

Alright I better get back to laundry. *sighs* I'm so beat.

Spring Cleaning

So I have started to do some spring cleaning in the bedroom and got rid of quite a bit. Would like to get rid of more shirts but then I'd be left with almost nothing to wear. Ha ha! I've had the same wardrobe (with the exception of work clothing) for the past hmmm...... 3 years!!! HOLY! I've given a lot of my stuff to goodwill cause most of it is too small or just really out dated. I'm wanting to incorporate some new pieces along the lines of the boho and surfer style. I'm really liking the natural, fresh look. I'm also wanting to take better care of my body. Now that the weather is finally getting better I want to go on walks, try yoga again, eat healthier, etc. So let's see how this goes. :P

2 things...

Number 1:
I have decided that I'm going to try and do a new thing either once or twice a month (depending on time, money, etc). I need to keep my creative juices flowing cause right now, this sucks. :P I bought 2 dream catcher making kits but it isn't going over well. :/ Oh well, will try again.


Number 2:
I found out that my cousin died. They don't know from what but we think it's from drug overdose. He had been doing them for a long time, he was in and out of rehab, and lived with his bio dad who did them as well. Not the best situation. He also had a son. Poor guy's gonna grow up with no dad. :(


Sorry about that downer but just thought I'd let you know what's going on over here.
Have a good night!

Girls are here!!!

So today I drove to Whitewood, SK and back with the girls in tow. :)
(Turk has 2 younger daughters, 7 year old twins, that live in MB with their mom full time.)
They have Spring Break right now so we get to have them for a week.
Right now I can hear Jen and Cassidy talking while Jen plays Little Big Planet and also Bay shooting hoops in the kitchen with Brooklyn.
Slapshot keeps barking for no reason. He's not used to the girls being here yet so he's being over protective.


Looking forward to a week of holidays with the fam. :)

Yesterday...

Right when I was the lowest I've been in a long time I come home and everything turns around. Getting a hug from Bay when I walked in, talking to Jen about her day, smelling her bake muffins and offering me cake and a fresh muffin. How sweet right?!

Also Turk and I had talked earlier and I can't believe how lucky I am to love and be loved by him.

I honestly have the best family ever.

:) <3

#3 - Meet Theo Fleury.... CHECK!

We watched the Legends play the local police department. Then proceeded to wait outside by the bus for about an hour. THEN... GOT TO MEET THEO FLEURY!!!! Ya a pic says a thousand words so I'll just let you look. :)
