Passenger


Loving this song right now. They are a band out of England and the main singers voice reminds me of a mix of James Blunt and Ed Sherran. Have a listen, it's awesome! xxx

I am here!

Well as you can see I have hardly had ANY blog posts this month. First of all, not that much has happened and second of all, I forgot my log in password!! It just occurred to me out of no where, so I decided to log in and write a post.

I have been in a course for bookkeeping this past few weeks and it's been pretty good. At first it was hard for me to be back in a classroom environment but I am enjoying learning. One thing I have learned is that organization is still not my strong point.

This past Friday I had a computer class for Quickbooks {the accounting software we use for Ryan's company}. I was running really behind for class in the morning so grabbed a hoodie that was on my bedroom floor {I know....clothes on my floor..shame on me}. I didn't think much of it and rushed off to class. Only after taking the last desk that was being hit with a stream of sunlight through the window, did I realize that my white cat had been sitting on it probably most of the night. My black hoodie was COVERED in white cat hair. No worries I thought, I will run out at lunch and pick up a new top.

So at lunch I rushed off to Chinook Mall and grabbed a sleeveless top and a matching cardigan from Old Navy. I didn't try them on but I only had half an hour so no time to spare! On the drive back to school I decided I would not be able to last the afternoon without food and stopped at McDonald's drive through. Perfect place to change!! I was rushing to get my new shirt on before anyone saw and guess what? It was too small.....meaning I was squished into this top while only half covered. Luckily I manged to get back on my other top before I got to the drive through window and decided just to wear my new cardigan that fit over my existing tank top. Phew! Problem solved. Well it would have been but as I was running so behind, I decided to eat my cheeseburger on the drive back. Nothing is never easy with me and I end up dropping ketchup ALL DOWN my new cardigan. So by the time I got back nothing had changed. I was now just wearing a shirt covered in ketchup instead of cat hair. Well done ;)

Not much else is new, I am trying to convince Ryan to drive to Edmonton this upcoming weekend to see the Princess Diana exhibit. Also, my phone was run over this weekend! Ryan found it on the steet outside our house. It must of fell out of my lap when I got home one day and subsequently run over by a neighbour. Oh well, it happens! xxx

Easter

This year we spent Easter in BC with Ryan's family. What was exciting is that my day home officially closed the Thursday before Good Friday, so I felt completely free of responsibility!!

We drove out on Friday and came home on Sunday, so although it was short, it was still fun. Of course there was lots of food! On Saturday night, I actually had to leave mid dinner and change from jeans into yoga pants! haha. That is honestly what happens when you are offered plate after plate of good food!

As for the last day of day home, my parting gift from my last child was a $200 gift card to the spa Evelyn Charles. So I am very excited to book something lovely in the future. For now, I have to focus on working on paperwork for Ryan's company and I start school this week for book keeping! It will be really strange to begin school again as I haven't attended proper school since I graduated high school in 2004!!

Well talking of work, I had better get back to it. Hope that everyone had a great Easter! xxx
