K, I'm obviosly really bad at doing this daily

So I guess it will be a weekly blog rather than every other day or daily.

Well since i blogged last week I have become addicted to a little thing called Face book?? I'm sure you have heard of it, I have found people I never ever thought I would hear from ever again, and I found a few friends, from High school, Jr High & even as far back as Elementary crazy huh?? it is quite easy to get addicted to this site. If you haven't checked out you should but BEWARE you will get addicted and fast!! They should apply a sticker some where on that site with the words BEWARE in large bold letters what do you think??

Anyways, not a lot is new with me I seemed to have retrieved the cold my husband had back and now have started to feel awful again, thought even though i have been ill I did make it to the gym Monday and Wednesday nights this week and hoping to go either tomorrow or Saturday to make my goal for the week to go to the gym 3 times a week!!!

Ummm I have found myself extremely tired this week and I have no clue why?? Though last night our bichon shih tzu had us up at 4:00AM to go out I could have killed my little dog he does this every once in a while. Hopefully it was a one night thing, cuz when you get up with one you might as well wake the other dog and take him out as well so our household was half awake at 4:00AM yuck....

Well looks like this is going to be a shorter blog, i don't really have a lot to say..... Yah its Easter next week which means short week for work YAHOO!!!!!!!

Until then

This week has flown by..

I can't believe its already Thursday morning, feels like I just finished typing my blog last Sunday. This week has gone by so fast and it has been a full week.

Monday, I had full intentions of going to to the gym for the first time in 3 weeks but then I got a call during the day that my parents would be back in town 4 hours earlier so I had to scratch that plan so then my parents arrived home from Phoenix, AZ, Rich and I and my lil sis met them for supper they told us all about their trip, sounds like they had a great mini vacation.

After supper my mom and dad came back to our house to pick up their lil puppy as we puppy sat all weekend, I was sad to see her go but once she left my big lab puppy sat at the door and cried for her to come back, it was so cute, but boy was the house quiet after she left, we then took the dogs for a much needed walk. after the nice walk I called my gym partner and said we need to go to the gym tomorrow and made a date to pick her up at 4:45 after work.

Well I kept my promise I picked up my work out partner( my mother-in-law) up early to go to the gym, boy were we dragging our butts when we left after working out for 1.5hours. On our way home we decided we would go again at the same time the next day.

Wednesday was the hardest get up all week I think it was cuz I was so tired from the gym work out. well I made it to the gym for a 2nd day in a row, we worked out for and 1.5hours again, we decided to try a new machine the step machine, i don't really think we knew what we were getting into we both could really feel it after we left the gym, again dragging out butts home.

We decided to give it a day break and I'm not sure when I'll make it back cuz I might have to go to a funeral within the next day or two so that will stop me from going to the gym but I will take the dogs for a walk because the weather forecast for the next week sounds amazing dog walking weather plus the dogs will love it. I do have a bit more energy since I worked out the last couple night plus took the dogs for a walk on Monday I am pretty proud of myself this week.

Tonight we or just I will be going over to my cousin's house to pick up this basket they have offered us to use as a dog bed for our pooches, they recently had to put their dog down for medical reasons so they didn’t want this basket hanging around anymore.

I am so looking forward to the weekend for a couple reasons
1. The weather is supposed to be incredible.
2. I could use a few extra hours of sleep
3. I might go out dancing with some girls (which will be fun) and have a few girly beverages.

well I think I am finally getting the hang of the blogs. I am really enjoying writing too. thank you to DivaJen(from WB) for the inspiration.

well until next time hopefully not as long as last time..

What a busy weekend it has been

Well its now Sunday long a couple days we have had, Friday hubby and I went to Denny's for supper yummy!! Then we came home to clean the house from top to bottom, I made a lasagna (for the dinner party that we hosted)

On Saturday my wonderful husband went and washed my truck and brough me home breakfast in bed, we did more cleaning, finally after 3 months we took our Christmas lights down, felt so good to get them down.
I then realized i needed a few things from the grocery store, so i went and did that got some gas came home made my dessert (got the recipe from my fellow Wedding beller RBM blog) I made Pavalova for everyone at the party (Dh is a huge fan of pavalova) we made it with a warm strawberry sauce and whip cream(so yummy) Dinner was hit!! Lasagna, Ceasar salad & garlic bread. We played a friendly game of taboo with guys against girls, and us girls got out butts beat. we continued chatting a couple hours more. We are dog sitting my mom's pup for the weekend and my friends little guy said the cutest thing " he wants to steal Gracie to bring her home with him" he loved the dessert so much he wanted some to take home with him so i packed a doggy bag for him to take home! Everyone went home around 1AM Rich and I were in bed by about 1:20 we were pretty tired and so were our dogs.

Today Rich ended up having to go to work, So the dogs and I vegged until about noon, then booked our flights to Winnipeg I have been watching for seat sales since lke January finally i found the sale i wanted and booked for June 1 we are heading to Brandon for one of my very good friends wedding, we fly out on June 1 and return June 3rd. Then i did a bit of cleaning up then showered and I am still vegging and it 5pm now! Where did the day go, guess i needed a veg day!
Well I think that’s all for now.

We are back!!

Well actually we ended up back in town Saturday evening instead of Sunday afternoon as planned, My hubby ended up catching a horrible cold and it ran him down very quickly so we ended up checking out of the hotel after the check out time so we ended up paying for a night that we didn’t end up using oh well.

The weekend started off really good, we got to the hotel around 9pm on Thursday evening, checked in then we went on a mission to find a shoppers drug mart cuz I forgot a couple things at home (oops silly me) well we found one that was still open, got the stuff we needed and headed back to the hotel and went to sleep.

Friday we woke up got ready to go and headed out to find some breakfast, ended up being tougher than we thought to find a breakfast place, we ended up eating at Ricky's for some eggs and bacon yum!
Then we ventured to West Edmonton mall and headed to the water park, which was awesome we did a few slides and one I even got some air going down it. We floated in the wave pooled and played in the waves had a great time.
We went back to the hotel to ditch our swim wear and relax for a few mins we were both exhausted. For dinner we decided to just hot the food court in the mall and walk around and ended back at the hotel earlier than I thought that’s when hubby started to feel rough and we were both pretty tired.

Saturday we woke up and went to the mall and got hubby some drugs that didn’t really work on him, got some McDonalds for breakfast went and played some mini golf which was fun then we went and looked at all the marine life, then played some games in galaxy land and watched some of the rides, then hubby was looking really rough, so we decided to go back to the hotel and come home early.
My parents were watching our dogs, I called her to let her we were on our way home and she said go home and get some sleep and that they would watch the dogs another night so nice of them.

Sunday morning, hubby still not feeling great, we got ready and joined my parents at Ikea, bought myself some fake flowers and a wok for the kitchen went to my parents for supper and some brownie to die for cake so yummy!!!!
we did a dine and dash at their place cuz hubby felt like crap came home and went to bed.

Hubby is at home sick still, he is actually at the doctor’s right not trying to figure out what’s wrong with him.

well that was quite the book I wrote today eh!

Until next time...

Happy Birtthday Rich!

Well it seems everyone these days has blogs so I thought I would create my own blog site, So Welcome!

It’s my hubby's birthday! Happy Birthday Rich!

We are going on a mini getaway weekend (we leave tonight YAY!). We are going up to Edmonton to celebrate his birthday and it will be nice to just get away, no dogs no phones ringing. We are doing the mall thing and just relaxing, going swimming, going to take hubs out for dinner to celebrate his birthday.
I can't wait until I'm done work only another 4.5 hours left of work, then I have to go to the chiropractor to get my neck massaged to get the kink out of it that I have had for almost a week so annoying!! Then I'll be running for the hills to pack up my dogs & bags and then hubby & I will drop the pups off at my moms for the weekend then he will be on our way out of town! Can't wait!

So if you have any suggestions on what we should do in Edmonton please comment and let me know!!

Got to see my nephews last night they are getting so big, can't believe they are going to be two in such a short time!

Well thanks for reading my blog today I'll be sure to post all about my weekend when I return!

Have a great weekend everyone!!
