sad

I just wanted to let you know that I don't think I will be posting very much over the next week. On the bus ride today I found out my sister, brother in law and my nephew Callum would be heading to Hawaii for Christmas and would be leaving today before I got to town. I was very upset on the bus and cried for the good part of an hour. I am sure the passengers around me thought someone died. It turns out that they waited for me to see Callum before leaving. I got to hold him and love him for a good 20 minutes before they left. Plus we got to see him open his gifts. He is so adorbale. I still love him it's not his fault that his parent's are so indecisive.

Early Christmas with Callum

The next week

So what is happening in my life? Am I finished my internship? No not yet. I am waiting for some things from the US office and it doesn't look like they will be ready until after Christmas. By I am pretty close to being done except for a few small projects and some homework.
This past week I have been working at The Lefse House they are starting to get crazy busy and needed extra help so they called me up.I am leaving for Calgary on the bus on Wednesday.

So before I go I need to pack and clean my room. So most of you are probably thinking I would start that at 10pm on Tuesday night.

But you are wrong. I have a load of laundry in now and I have already folded my clean laundry. I also have emptied my drawers so my room still looks like it is in a state of chaos but I have made some progress. I am also finding things that I forgot I bought for Callum. :D That's it no more Christmas presents for him this year. Unless I find something really cute.

Today I am going to Bethany's Piano Recital. I am really looking forward to hearing her play.
After the recital I am hopefully going to be able to go and meet a landlord and get an application for their basement suite. It the place works out I won't have very far to move because it will be very close to where I live now.

Then I will go to Bethany's soccer game and try not to cheer too loud because Bethany gets easily embarrassed. Hopefully after the game it will be close to six and I will have a chance to look at the basement suite.

After that I will be off to Tofield until Monday morning. Fun times with the L's.
Monday, Tuesday I will be at the Lefse House. Then on Wednesday I will finish everything up and have a WMPL lunch and then I will get on the bus. I will go to Calgary and stay with Natashia and Allison until Saturday morning. I am pretty excited. Also hopefully on Thursday night I will be able to have dinner with Old family friends. Then on Saturday I will get to see Callum and my family. I will be home for ten days before going by bus back to Calgary and then onto Saskatoon by plane. That is the tentative plan for now but I need to talk to my dad because I will need to bring a bunch of my house stuff back from Creston so I am not sure what will happen.

I am sure I will post again before Christmas but just in case I am too distracted by Callum. MERRY CHRISTMAS!! May you enjoy time with family and friends and remember the real reason for the season.

Simple vs Real

Anyone can stand by you when you are right, but a Friend will stand by you even when you are wrong...

A simple friend identifies himself when he calls. A real friend doesn't have to.

A simple friend opens a conversation with a full news bulletin on his life.

A real friend says, "What's new with you?"

A simple friend thinks the problems you whine about are recent.

A real friend says, "You've been whining about the same thing for 14 years. Get off your duff and do something about it."

A simple friend has never seen you cry. A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.

A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first names. A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book.

A simple friend hates it when you call after he has gone to bed. A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.

A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems. A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.

A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest. A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself.

A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.

A real friend knows that it's not a friendship until after you've had a fight.

A simple friend expects you to always be there for them. A real friend expects to always be there for you!
