April 29th

The first time in a few days I've had a chance to sit down at the computer and type...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID - Today my hubby was born, well not today, but on this day 24 years ago... turned 24 today, and for the next 4 and a half months we'll be 24 together... Sigh swoon.

Happy be-lated birthday to Ruthie (Whom I saw yesterday. What a wonderful visit, however brief it was.) Also it is Nikki's (from ABU) (I don't know if she reads this or not... But some of you who do might like to know) birthday - - (there are a lot of parentheses in this paragraph)

Today we finished moving into the house... it took a lot! It took a long time... I'm sore, I'm tired and if I had the energy I'd be super excited. I'm excited, don't get me wrong, but once I'm rested I'll be all gitty and girly over my new house. Then I can get depressed at how many boxes I have to unpack.

Dad and Mom Skafte came up to help move - -THANK YOU - - with Stephen and Jamie, thanks guys. Berinda came up with them but did't come see the house.

Gotta go finish the moving of Furniture... I didn't unload the vehicles.... so I have to re-arrange the bookcases and chairs...

We have a House

We have a HOUSE!

We got the Keys this Morning!

Woot


The moving begins - and it'll go all week. oh Joy.

Sigh

i'm so excited... woot woot

Easter Weekend

This weekend was a great time.

I spent the weekend with David's Family. Friday we arrived, had a big meal with the Medicrafts(Dad Skafte's Sister's family). There were a few people there. Saturday we lazy-ed around, went for a walk on the shore and then went out to eat at The End of the Line Pub. It was yummy. Sunday was church as usual. about 12:30 David and I went to have lunch with Keezer (yup Chris, he's in Bridgetown for work), at Timmy's. It was good to catch up. Sunday evening we headed into Wolfville to stay with Momma and Dad. It was great. we got to sit and talk, sleep, wake up in the midle of the night coughing, and then get up and Play Nintendo... Super Nintendo... All Stars - Mario 3 it was awesome!!!!!!!!! It made me miss Sims with Brannie..sigh

and then we left to come home - pack a few boxes, and then sit here and update. I have to get some things ready for School... so this is all I got for now.

I know, it's been a while....

It's been over a week since my last confess...err Update.

It was a week that seemed like everything that could go wrong did - and yet it wasn't a bad week...

Work went by fast, however I had a migrain for the frits three days of my four day week... ever had a migrain with 17 kindergarteners? no, well you don't want to try that. Trust me. so work went by, and it was ok. There are only 40.5 days of school left. That is very exciting. I met with the Principal and as far as I know, I'll be working there next year as well. So far the guesstimation is 12 kids.. wouldn't that be sweet. Just 12 kids. I can imagine how much focus I could give every one of them. I mean I know that 17 isn't bad, but 12 would be fab. On Friday we had an inservice, but instead of giving us the day to do our marking, and report cards, we had a seminar. I got to leave a bit earlier to go take my drivers test...

As for my driving test, well Friday afternoon arrived, and I was freaking out - breathing shallow, trying not to lose it in the middle of my seminar. I got home puked a few times, I lost it, and cried my eyes out. I have severe stage fright / performance anxiety.... so this test was just everything I didn't want to have to take. so I pull myself together. I'm a little less freaked out, and off I go. Well I get to the DMV and wouldn't you know... the brake light is out... yup all that for nothing. and the BEST part... in a few weeks when ever I can find the time (while i'm working) to go and take the test again I get to go through all that MESS again, all that stress, anxiety... yeesh.

Once home I get packed up because David and I are helping out with the youth in the 24hr Black out... 24 hours without electricity. 14 youth and nothing to eat but rice, and oatmeal... yummy. it was ok they didn't really complain and we got a few hours of sleep. I think the worst thing was that I was damp the entire 24 hours. we got home Saturday at 6:00 ish.... We went to a leaders house for a de-briefing and ice cream... woot. then we went home I was in bed at 9:45 pm...

Well today I woke up at 4:30 am... with the biggest migrain, I took 8 extra strength tylenol and headed back to bed. I was thinking that maybe by 8 the head ache would be gone.. GUESS AGAIN... it was worse, I just woke up and cried. I am still dealing with the mirgrain after 2 heavy duty pain killers... frig it sucks to be me...

but on a good note... tomorrow I work another 4 day week. woot
