Talking, Teaching

Wow it's been a crazy few days. I've felt pulled in a lot of directions. Not in a bad way, just in a way that makes me feel all stretched out.

I've started to chat with old friends again. It's neat. I saw Mel a few months ago, and David and I are planning on seeing her in Nov. Holly and Justin stopped by, and hopefully I'll see them again, in Nov. Sigh I have to call Brannie, If I do get to Moncton I NEED to see her!!!! I Miss her and Ryan and the Fam.... Sigh...

On Thursday I headed off to the Teachers Convention... it's not as glamorous as it sounds... but it was great! I love going with the girls from work. I enjoy that for the most part most of us get along... and that L and P and S and I (me) all get along so well! It's just nice. I did miss David, a lot, but I got through. Also from all the junk food, and crappy fast food i got a tummy ache, and boy the ride home sucked... I just was so car sick for most of the ride...

I'm home now and just relaxing. My In Laws are here, and i like having them here. it's really not cool how far they are from me, us... but we still see each other about once a month. It was nice...

Well I'm getting ready for bed.
Ciao

So much

So I feel like I have to catch up - I'm constantly trying to get things done and it seems that nothing ever gets done...

I'm aching for my Family... It's so hard to tell someone what I feel God has laid on my heart... It's hard to tell someone the obvious truth / common sense that they can't see... It's hard because I don't want to sound 'high and mighty'... but it's not just me, When you talk to other family members we all feel it, see it and yet no one will say anything.. and I just wish I could be the one to say it... but if I am the one - I don't' want to be the bad guy... you know? Meh... I just have to realize that I can't fix everything, or everyone. But I still cry at night over the mistakes, the hurt I see that they are inflicting on themselves and on the other family members...

Argh...

It's just hurts

argh....

I'll get over it - if I can find the time

Thanksgiving Weekend

So much is going on...

1. David and I getting so many things finished, and started with the house...you know the regular maintenance. I love how handy David is. I just bought a desk that is huge - and I'll use for scrap booking. It's so big we hope it will go in our office. I love it! The next major thing to start is shelves in our laundry room. Oh and siding our house.

2. We did thanksgiving at David's parents place. It was so nice to see them. I love just being with them, sitting and talking - about life. I love being able to share things, and to pray about thins, and know that they are praying for us too. Mom showed me some bible verse that were just what I needed to hear... It was good. For dinner we went to David's Aunt's house with 30 some odd people. I love crowds just not with a headache.

3. Oh the way home we stopped by Mom and Dad McG's and saw old family friends. He's a car salesman. and will keep his eye open for a car we are looking for. I hope it works out and we can get a good deal (cause we know him)

4. I hit a Deer on Wednesday night... no one was hurt, no car was damaged, and the deer seemed to be ok.

5. ON Thursday night I jumped the curb... and blew out my tire... yeesh... but again no one was hurt, but a car was damaged... I was with my sis-in-law and we pushed a car as people just kept on driving by... sigh where did chivalry go... Anyways i nice lady stopped and drove us to where our husbands were and the crisis was over.

6. The night of the storm the night i blew the tire... we were boarding a bus to PEI... EastLink is having their executive club retreat weekend. If you get 100% or better of your quota you 'qualify' for this retreat. we go to a resort, and David plays golf while I go to the spa... sigh I love the spa. David got 161% of his quota (that's more than anyone else in any area of sales) Woot for my hubby!!

7. Umm work is going well...

I can't think of anything else... Oh I did laundry today... sigh...
