The joys of Camping!

Well this Monday was no different then any other then the fact that I did not want to get out of bed this morning. There was a relization that the weekend was over and it just was not long enough.

This weekend was quite exciting. I went camping for the second time this summer. This time my friends and I ventured out to Writing on Stone. There is a beautiful campground there. Writing on Stone is right beside the milk river. On Saturday we went toobing down the river. This was a little scary to me as I had not done this since I was a little girl. My friends were kind of laughing at me as I was making funny noises. But i got braver the longer I was on the river. It ended up being a very fun trip. My friends did a lot of reading this weekend while I played card games and went for a walk. Overall it was a wonderfull weekend full of good food a lots of relaxzation.

Today was a good day as well as there was a few new clients and not enough staff. The joy of my field of never having enough staff. Never the less the day went really well.

I look forward to what fun and exciting things this week will bring.

Defiantly A Monday!

I woke up today at 8:30 and had realized that my alarm had not gone off. I was a little worried since I was suppose to be at work at 8:30. I quickly got ready and made it to work at 8:45. Do not ask me how I did that because I still don't know. This was not a good start to my week. It defiantly felt like a Monday.

Well In the morning at work I was assigned to help out with the float that was going to go into the parade. I did not have a clue what was to be done or how. This is defiantly Peak stile when nobody else new what was going on either. So I took charge and somehow I was able to get everything done. It is kind of a weird looking float but it works. I looked across the road from work and the kayak place had a wonderful float with moving objects on it. I felt a little embarrassed for our float. Its a good thing that we are in Lethbridge and not Calgary. I am still proud of my clients for working hard on our float. If they like it I do to!

In the afternoon I got to waste time with clients getting a doughnut and a Slurpee. I was also able to get me car washed. Kind of a slack afternoon. I deserved it after my busy morning.

The weekend was quite wonderful. On Saturday I was able to spend most of the day at Park lake laying on the water! It was so relaxing. Then that night my friends and I had a bonfire which is always wonderful. Sunday I had a three hour nap which never happens and then spent the evening watching the Olympics. Great weekend for relaxing because I didn't have to work!

I am so excited just like Denise about the medals that Canada has got in the last couple of days. The Olympics just keep getting better and better. I have nothing to complain about. Ya hoo!!!

Well that is it for me today. Don't work to hard and enjoy the hot weather!!!

Be Aware of the Basball!

Hello all, I am back from the dead! Just kidding. Well Today is Thursday and I can't wait till the weekend because I don't have to work. This dose not happen very often these days. I have been doing fifteen hour days lately. I don't recommend this for any one.

Well today was a little different for my agency had a baseball game for all the individuals and staff. We do this every day but this year was a little bit crazy. We managed to have three people get hurt. All three people recovered quite well. I wish they would make a softball that was soft on the inside so that it wouldn't hurt so bad when you got hit by it. By the way I was one of the people that got hit by the ball. I took it like a man!!! That's what you get for being the pitcher. I loved it, it was a lot of fun!

Well the Olympics are quite wonderful. I have especially loved the gymnastics. The Chinese women and men are just outstanding this year. I have always loved the American gymnasts ever since I was a little girl. This year however they just didn't compare to the power and consistency of the Chinese. We Canadians have yet to win a medal. Never less the Olympics are just wonderful. China did a wonderful job with all of there facilities. The are all incredible! Especially for the rafting wow Its very beautiful!

The weekend is almost upon me and I don't know what will be doing. I guess I will just wait for what surprises will come my way.

Love you ALL!

There is nothing better then Summer!

Well we are all ready into August and I can't believe it. I don't like to think of August being over because it means that summer is almost over. I love summer! There is nothing better then the hot sun and various activities that make me so happy. I can't lie tennis is on the top of the list!

Another thing that has got me so excited is the upcoming Olympics. The opening ceremonies starts in a few days and I can't wait. I love both the summer and winter Olympics and there is not one sport that I don't like to watch. I think our country has great athletes. There is nothing better then watching countries from all over the world compete against each other.

This long weekend was very enjoyable. I didn't do to many things but hang out with family and watch a lot of movies. It is always hard after a long weekend to go back to work. Today felt like it should already be Friday. That is not a good start to my week.

Other then that there is not much new with me! Same old things! My thoughts and Prayers are with my sister in Law and her family.

So Long for now!
