Here With David

So i'm sitting at home, just workign on some work - you know how it goes... I have to get ready for report cards... oh how I remember the pain report card days brought. it isn't anything big - oral communication, written work, number recognition etc. but is till have to get everything ready - and mental prep for the parent teacher day that is coming up.

Last week I was up to Moncton - I had to go to a Teachers Convention.. Iwas so excited that I might get a chance to see some of my friends... only it didn't work out so much - but i got to spend some time with my co-workers, which was great. the converence was ok. it was long... but ok.

Sigh... it's monday and I'm so looking forward to friday. it's an in service. I'll be in school, but once the mraking is done i'll be ready for some organizing. the class is in a mess... the last teacher kinda of left nothing... or very little and in such a splattering.. i have yet to find some of the teaching aids.

moving on...

David is doing well. He had a bit of a cold - a stuffy nose mostly, but he's doing ok. Work is going well and being marriend is definatly a good thing for him. ;)

Love ya'll
well I'm off... got to do a few things...

It's been a while...

Thanksgiving...

sigh it’s so friggin hard to have a happy thanksgiving... when there are a billion little things going wrong on so many levels. Well mostly the food level, and the family level... Its not that I don’t enjoy my family.. its just that sometimes – I feel like I’m eight and I’m going to get yelled at... or teased about something... it wasn’t so bad – in fact it was nice to see my family. I miss momma a lot!! A lot more than I thought I would... sigh...

The dinner was ok – the gravy burned – my stupid oven... and how it isn’t consistent... I’ll get over it... after all you aren’t in a relationship to change a person.

We had the dinner on Sunday, because on Monday mom and dad had to leave. Dad had a lot of schoolwork to do. Momma and Dad and mike and Jen (along with Jen’s dad and step-mom) and mark and Sean all were in our apartment. It was nice. We ate, we talked. It was good to laugh with those you love.


Tuesday Following...

Grandma and Grandpa Skafte came for a visit. They stayed just one night. I love hanging out with them, they are so funny –and I hope David and I are just like them when we are so very old. Aha. Oh they took us out to eat on Tue. We had Chinese... I love Chinese.

The Weekend - Oct 16-17

Mom and Dad Skafte came up on the 14th (Friday) for the weekend. It was nice, they took us out for dinner – woot woot – it was nice. We went to Smitty’s and talked. I enjoy so much that David and I are friends with both sets of parents.

On Saturday Mom and Dad went to Moncton to visit Janet – I wished I could’ve gone. I miss her so very much. I wish a lot for her... correction I pray a lot for her... sigh... Sunday came as it usually does after Saturday. We all went to Church; by this time mom and dad were back. And then on to a bus heading for the Rodd Crowbush resort on PEI. We went to celebrate the top sales people (I think that makes sense and is somewhat close to the real title) of Eastlink. David WON an award. He was top in his division. What a great surprise!!! It was great for him. He is such a hard worker, and so dedicated. He’s so good at what he does. It’s good to see him have recognition for what he does.

The next day (Monday) David went to play golf and I went to the spa to have a facial. It was great. And it was nice to relax, and be pampered –I’ve never been pampered before. I think I could do that almost everyday. Anyways, at 4 oclock we headed home. It was a long ride home... and beign car sick on a big bus isn’t a good time.

Over all it was a great weekend. I loved being with David, watching him get that award, seeing the joy on his face.. I loved being with Mom and Dad Skafte, I love getting to know them on the friend ship level. It was just a great tim

So Sick

I have been sick for about a month - first is was a simple old, the kind that you hardly notice, except early in the morning...

And then it moved.

I guess from the litte aches it moved into my neck and back. this is ok.. it's week 2 and colds always get worse before they get better...

And then it moved.

From my back to my nose... how do aches turn into a sinus thing. the runnign nose, the painful pressure, the actual head rush tha thappens from breathing. Noworries... it's week 3 and at some point i'm sure the cold will go away...

I hope.

And then it moved.

It sank actually. from the sinus to my thoat and into my ears. we all know that my tube thingys are not working well, so i guess the cold moved in to help? maybe? ...right... So not being able to hear anyone, or myself. this is normal right? the aching ears? the runny nose (left overs from the sinus trip)? Well my throat, it's sandpaper. Some days i can't talk, some times the voice comes in and out - it's great.

But again it was just week 4, and i'm sur eone day it will get better.

And then it moved.

wait it didnt' move... not at all... it liked the throat... so now it's Week 5... and still the gross sickness... Sigh.. The kids must love the voices I make when I read the stories. aha.

Well I'm off to make dinner for the hubby... hee hee it's still makes me smile to say i have a hubby... hee hee
