hey from me and the kid

'l,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,............gfg][gg Hey all
hope everything is good with you. If this post id strange it is nn because my 1 year old nephew is helping me type.

I am doing great and am having a blast with him this summer. Tonight we are staying at my parents and will probably go to the water park tomorrow for the first time. He loves his pool and bath so he should have a good time. We have errands to do tomorrow as well. We will probably take the bus into town, which will be an adventure.

I started teaching Sunday School today and it was amazing. I ha0d 9 kids in grade 4 which was lots of fun. It is such a joy to teach them again. It is interesting mm nsince I had many of the same kids in my age 4 and 5 class that I taught before I moved away for school. 0.

Well the family is leaving for the night after a f2amily dinner for all the bir0th2017days aroun0d th2is 22222time. So we better go and say goodbye.

Talk to
you later. Love 5you a5trnd hhhhGodBless.

hope this wasn't too hard to

settled and busy

Okay so I have been back for a week now and am finally feeling settled in. I spend three days last week with my nephew. It was a ton of fun although he is teething so is kinda cranky. I am looking forward to starting a regular schedual with him next week since last week was crazy and messed up with it being my sister's first week back at work and this week is messed up with the holiday. I am so busy the next few days I do not know when I will get all the errands done that I need to. Lets see here is my schedual, so far, for the next week.

Today - Canada Day - family BBQ from 2-5, also need to finish a paper
Tomorrow - help dad with papers during the day and REV in the evening
Thursday - meetings with Doug, Justin, and Pastor Antonio (hopefully I can catch all three) then to my sister's in the evening
Friday - babysit all day and spend the evening at my sister's
Saturday - scrapbooking for Autism with my sister
Sunday - Church then to my sister's for the night
Monday - Wednesday - babysitting all day and spending the nights at my sisters
Wednesday night - REV

Busy but should be fun. Sometime before saturday I need to get my Japan pictures printed and buy a scrapbook for them so that I can start it at the scrapbooking day. I also need to get into my storage unit and organize it as well as pick up some things that got dropped off there by mistake, such as my coffee cup, my jewlery, and all my hair stuff. I also need to apply for jobs. I am planning on working at Tim Hortons near my sister's house (since I have been told that I am basically guaranteed a job there) Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday nights since I will be in that area. Then I need to get another part time job closer to my parents for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday while I am in that area. Hopefully this will give me enough to put money into savings to start paying off student loans and to pay the bills in the fall cause if I get accepeted into the intership I will not be able to work more than 10 hours a week so need to save as much this summer as I possibly can.

Well I better go and work on my paper but I will touch base with you later. Love you and God Bless.

sorry

To my family

I am sorry if I hurt any of you in the last post. I was upset and frustrated and was not very nice. I am sorry. I love you all.

family frustrations

So I am moving in two days and it has been planned for three weeks that mom will come and help me on friday and dad and my brother will come on saturday to load and move everything. Well then my brothers girlfriend wanted to come and that meant three vehicles, so then mom wasn't going to come. Then this morning my mom calls to tell me she is coming even if it means that there will be 3 vehicles because she doesn't want to cause conflict and put my brother in the middle of it. But yet it is apparently okay to put me in the middle of it since I have recieved calls from basically every member of my family complaining about the situation and wanting me to deal with it even though I am no where near any of them. I also do not understand why my sister is involved and is so uptight and stressed about it when she has nothing to do with the moving and has never planned to come and help so it does not affect her plans at all. As much as I love my family there are times when I wish I could just walk away and no longer have a family. But then I miss them and I love them to much to leave them.

So I move in two days but I am not sure exactly how it will work or who will be here to help maybe I should just sell all my stuff and move back to the coast on the Greyhound so that there is no conflict for the family to deal with and no one is inconvienced or left out.

hurt and confused

I am amazed at how you can be friends with someone for years and then discover that they really do not know you at all. They have a version of you in their head and chose to remeber things that you say and do to support this vision rather than actually listen to what you are telling them. Since doscovering this I have been analysis my friendships and the views that I have of people and I can not honestly say that I know all are 100% acurate, but then I guess that is the thing - you do not realize you do not know someone until something happens. Although even with the events of the last while I do not know if this friend realize that the image held of me is not acurate. While I was enlightened that this person does not know the real me, is this person being enlightened that they do not really know me? I do not know. Sorry I realize this probably sounds very strange and crazy, but hey that is me so what do you expect.

I am reminded of the song by Jaci Velasquez that goes "This is the real me, am I the girl that you want me to be? This is the real me, Can you face it, Can you feel it, Can you take it, Can you deal with, The real me" (and yes for those of you who know the song there is a line missing because it does not fit with what I am saying). I have spent the last few years discovering for myself who the real me is and I must say I was rather hurt to discover that my friend (maybe more??) does not know who I am.

Now I must get back to packing, oh that is right I am going to watch a movie and have some fun instead. Take care and God bless.

Finally something to do

So the SL marks finally arrived so I have been able o finish most of my stuff for work there is a bit that I will have to leave up to my partner to do on her own though but it should not too bad.

Packing is moving so slowly, I had forgotten how much I detested packing. I do not mind moving I just hate the preparation leading up to the packing. Oh well it is part of life.

Further than that my heart is breaking for my friend and her family right now as they are going through so much. I wish that I could do more to help, but I will do what I can and that is pray and let God have control of the situation. Please join me in prayer for this family.

I am getting super excited to move back home and reconnect with family and friends - I feel like I have been gone for so long. I know that I have changed in many ways but I am still the same as I always was just older and more sure of myself and my path. It will be interesting to see how everyone else has changed over the past four years as well.

where did it all come from

So I am starting to actually feel like I am accomplishing something. Yeah. Other than that not much is new except that I forget how steep of a hill MacIntosh is then I walk up it and remember. It feels great to be able to walk to and from campus though, very refreshing.

One other question, who brought stuff into my house while I was away because I am pretty sure that I did not have this much stuff when I left. I am not sure where it all came from. I think that I will blame Adam though, it feels like a good day for everything to be the cousins fault. Love ya anyway Adam.

Well talk to you later
God bless
