A Wedding Pic

Ok so my sister is no longer Carolyn Proud she is now Carolyn Ziefflie.

They got married this past Saturday at the Kokanee Brewery in Creston. The wedding was outside underneath two trees. It was a very nice service preformed by the Lutheran Pastor in town Pastor Harry Haberstock. After the service we went for photos in the caterer's back yard. This is the one photo that one of Carolyn's friends gave me to hold me over until she gets back from Toronto. As you can tell by photo the ring bearer was adorable. When he walking down the aisle he decided he was going to stick out his tongue it was pretty cute.

After photos we returned to the brewery for the reception. The party lasted until 2am when the nice RCMP man showed up and told us it was time to stop. We were fine with this we all thought they would of been by sooner.

I will post a lot more photos when I get them and I would put an album on facebook.

:D

In Memory of Kita

This is a picture of my sister's beloved dog who was sadly put to sleep today. Kita began to get sick a few months ago and then lost his sight sometime in April. This post is in Memory of him.
Kita doing something he loved. If he saw water he was in it no questions asked. You would take him on a walk on a trail and he would go into the bush and come back wet because he had found some sort of water.
So it looks like Kita is going to bring back the stick to the person who threw it but that was not the case. Kita rarely brought it back close to the person. He was very protective of his sticks. You only threw toys for him at the house because otherwise you would sometimes end up having to fetch them. He also liked to hide his toys in a bush.
Kita loved rolling around and playing in the snow.
Here he is just chilling we must of tired him out.

Kita was very protective of his loved ones mainly my sister. Whenever we took him for hikes he would run ahead and then my sister would hide and as soon as he turned around and noticed she was gone he would go looking for her. Then later I would hide and usually I would just come out of hiding because he wouldn't come looking for me. If Carolyn was ok then he was ok.

Kita was also pretty gentle and afraid of thunder. If you heard thunder you had about five seconds to get him into the house or he would be gone. I don't know how many times we had to drive looking for him.

My favorite thing about Kita was after I would go to my sister's house after being gone for a few months I would get out of the car and call his name and he would come bouncing and all excited to see me. He was pretty loving.

The worst part about all of this is it's only 10 days until my sister's wedding. But it is better this way cause the wedding would of only been very stressful on Kita and the really hot weather in Creston was getting to him.

Please pray for my sister as she is pretty upset about this and is dealing with the loss.

Good Bye Kita Dearly loved friend and family member

This one is for Erin

So Erin L kept on asking me to take photos of where I work. So the one day I was really bored and then I realized I had Sarah's camera in my purse so I took some photos.


This is a photo of the transfer station. This is where people go to drop off there household garbage. It goes in the blue bins. Then we have bins for wood, metal and cardboard. You wouldn't believe the stupid things people put in the wood bin.

This is the transfer station from the other side. We have four household garbage bins but only two are open at a time.

Here the fridges are all lined up. After they are placed here the loader will come by and move them to another location where the Freon can be removed before they head to the metal pile.

Here is a pic of me sitting in my truck. It was a really slow morning and I was tired and I almost fell asleep.

This is a picture of the dirty wood pile. (dirty means painted or stained, etc.) We weren't actually using that pile the day the photo was taken. Cause the wood chipped(tub grinder) seen in the photo was being repaired and blocking the usual dumping spot.

This is a photo of the dirty wood pile we were using that day. I waited 9 hours for the loader to come and spread the front part so I could pick through it. I didn't finish we ended up having a fire on the top of the hill so I had to race up there.

This is my truck sitting at the wood pile. I basically sat in it all day and waited for customers.


Here is the tire pile. It used to be a lot bigger and it another spot but we have recently had like 6 semi's come and we have loaded them with the tires.

So that is pretty much it. I forgot to take a photo of the face. That is where the garbage trucks dump and also where our household garbage bins from the transfer station are dumped.

Thanks Girls for a fun two days. I love you.

my summer vacation

So I know it has been some time since my last post but I was gone for a week. I was on Holidays. I wouldn't say it was relaxing but it was lots of fun.

So on the 3rd I left GP at 11:45 pm and finally arrived by bus in Camrose at 9:15am on wed. I arrived with only one minor mishap which involved me riding in a taxi with a stranger and then in the stranger's sister's car. I was met at the bus station by Pat. I then went to her house and slept and after I woke up spent the rest of the afternoon and early evening visiting with the Lewis's it was a great time.

I spent the next two nights at Shannon's place. On Thursday I went shopping like all day with Jen T trying to find an outfit for me to wear to Krystal's wedding. I finally purchased one which I later returned that evening and bought a different one with Shannon which I really liked. You see there was this shirt I really wanted but couldn't find bottoms to go with it when I was with Jen so I settled for something else but then Shannon and I found bottoms.

Late Friday afternoon I left Camrose and headed to Regina. I was able to catch a ride with the Sorenson's which was a huge blessing. I got into Regina late but Chelsea was kind of hyper so we went to Tim Horton's with Marian.

The Big Day. Krystal and Evan's wedding. The wedding was beautiful and I got a little teary when I saw Krystal in her dressing waiting to enter the church doors.

The Happy Couple Evan and Krystal Moore July 7th/07

As you can see Krystal looked very beautiful in her dress.

I had four hours to kill in between the wedding and the reception so I went to the mall and went shopping with Jen and Shaylene(sp?). And guess what? I found the dress for my sister's wedding which was exciting. Coral is a color of pink right? After the reception I drove to Saskatoon and asked Allison at the last minute if I could sleep on her couch. And thankfully she said yes. Thanks again Allison.

On Sunday after church I got a ride with Lori and Marian who were on there way back tree planting. They stopped at the corner of HWY 16 and the road to Tofield. Pastor Kevin and Kendra then came and picked me up. You see I hadn't told the summer team that I was coming. So when I got to Erin's house I rang the front door bell and they got Erin to answer and you should of heard her scream. I love surprising Erin because she reacts so well. Michelle and Hannah were also happy to see me. I then spent the next two days hanging out with the girls which was lots of fun.

When I was packing my bag for the airport I said to myself I should put my dress in my backpack in case they lose my suitcase. So I get to GP I am waiting and waiting for my bag it doesn't come. My bag is now lost but it's ok I got it back today.

I went back to work today which was kind of sad after being off for a week but I need to save so it's better I work.

FREEDOM WRITERS

http://www.freedomwriters.com/

Ok so everyone you need to check this movie out. Sarah and I watched it the other night and it was really good. It is based on a true story. It's kind of like a Coach Carter type movie. The cover of the movie doesn't look exactly like this in stores. The one in stores also has Patrick Dempsey's face on it.

So head out to your local video store and pick this movie up. Then go home and make some popcorn and enjoy a good movie.

There is a clip below.

Freedom Writers Trailer - YouTube EXCLUSIVE!!

I haven't actually watched this trailer so I am not sure if it spoils anything. Watch at own risk.

Blog Update

Please check out my prayer blog at http://catsprayerrequests.blogspot.com/ or the link on the side.

Thanks

my current state

So I am chilling here in S'toon right now. Sarah and I left GP right after work on Thursday and drove to Camrose and spent the night. We then spend the next day visiting people at CLBI and going for lunch. After that we drove out here. On the way Sarah and I were listening to music and we basically found our theme song for the current point of life we are at.

The song is called complicated and it is by Carolyn Dawn Johnson I have copied the parts that I feel I can really relate to. If you want to listen to it http://www.cdj.com/music/room_with_view.php

I'm so scared that the way I feel,Is written all over my face.
We used to laugh, we used to hug, the way that old friends do.
So complicated, I'm so frustrated.
Oh, It's so confusing. I wish you'd just confess. But think of what I'd be losing, if your answer wasn't yes.
Oh I want you to know, but then again I don't, It's so complicated.

Oh, I hate it. 'Cuz I've waited.So long for someone like youOh, what do I do.Oh should I say it.Should I tell you how I feel.I want you to know,but then again I don't.It's so complicated..It's so complicated..It's so complicated.Ohh..


This song is my life

no time to post

this week has been pretty busy which hasn't left much time to post. plus i went to bed just after 8 on tuesday with a terrible cold and last night i went to bed at 8 with a migraine. i am leaving for s'toon right after work today and i will be back sunday night. i will post sometime next week. have a good weekend.

The Strike is Over

So technically I only got 9 "real" comments but Mrs. Walsh told me she reads my blog so I am counting that. I need to make a power point for Mr. Walsh so I will write a real post later.

Going on Strike!!!!!

Ok so you may be wondering about what is happening don't worry it's not work related. I have decided I am tired of writing on my blog when it appears only 2 or 3 people are commenting on it. The thing is other people tell me they read it. So I have decided to go on strike and write no more posts until I get at least 10 different people to comment and say they are actually reading it. Anonymous doesn't count unless you sign your name otherwise someone could just comment ten times. My reasoning is if only 2-3 people are reading it then I might as just personally e-mail those people instead of writing a post. How long will this strike last? That is up to you the readers.

Take Care

Hopefully I will be back soon

Life in GP

So I know it has been some time since I have last blogged. Life has been busy and I have really had no desire to sit at the computer and write a post.

Work has been going good and I have been working for about two weeks now. Some days work is really boring like when I sit at the wood pile with not much to do. I usually write letters or listen to the radio if I have the truck.

Ben(Sarah's Younger Brother) just came home early with some friends and I am still in my PJ's nice. I guess there was a bomb threat at his school so they got out early. Now I get to listen to them play the electric guitar or attempt to.

Anyways back to work. So we did get the raise and it turns out that now we make $18.57 an hour. I got to work two hours of overtime this week which was pretty sweet.

Because I am a summer student I always do different jobs and it changes everyday.

In August I might be working two jobs. Working at the landfill and then where Sarah works on my days off since Sarah will be gone to Newfoundland.

New Job

http://www.aquatera.ca/

Hey everyone so I thought I would tell you more about my new job now that is official. I got a job working for Aqua Tera. Working at there landfill location ie. the dump. Now before any of you begin to laugh at me you can only laugh if your making more than 15.81 an hour because that is what I will be making and then you can only laugh if you don't have education for the job you are working in. Also the contracts are under negotiation and will be re-voted on next week and it looks like we will be getting a $2.00 pay increase. Which means I would be making $17.81 and if you work on weekends it's an extra dollar an hour. Another bonus is the guy has the schedule made up way in advance so I would know my days off for the summer. There are three summer positions on the schedule and I am hoping for a certain one because then I will only need to take like one day off for Carolyn's wedding.

life in GP

hey so I have arrived in GP...it has been pretty sweet...looks like I have a job but will wait until I sign the contract before I post...all is well....

so...

i think i need to get married and buy a house. wait a minute who says i need to be married to buy a house. i just need to buy a house so i can quit moving things around all the time it is getting so annoying. too bad i don't see it stopping anytime in the near future. i just wish all my stuff could be in one spot. currently it's in three spots. some still at clbi. some in calgary and the rest still here in creston and soon i am going to take some of it when i move but only very little. so frustrating.

BIG NEWS

I AM MOVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the pain

hey so I confess I had some pain and did cry a little bit today. When the dentist finished my teeth at 2 he said I am going to prescribe some T 3's and you should take them in the next hour before the freezing is gone. So I go and get the secretary to call my mum and there is no answer. Finally we get a hold of her and she comes and gets me. I get home at 2:30 and should be taking my T 3's anytime now. So my mum goes back to the dentist to pay him and get my prescription. So 3:30 rolls around and my mum is still not home then it's 3:50 she is still not home and my freezing is basically all gone and I am starting to feel a lot of pain. Then she finally comes home at like 4:15 and at this point I had been crying for like five minutes. So she comes in and is asking me whether I want to take my antibiotics or the pain killers and I was like just give me the pain killers. So she gave me 2 T3's. Then Sarah call and we had a short conversation after which I fell asleep for 2 hours. It was a really good sleep. :) Then when I work up just before 7 my mum told me to take another T 3 and I was like it hasn't been 4 hours it had actually only been 2 1/2 but she was like take it now before the other one wheres off so I did. Then I was pretty hungry so I ate some yogurt and was still hungry. So my dad went and got me cottage cheese and I ate that. But I was still hungry so then I ate some potatoes. Then just a little while ago I had some ice cream. Cause I only had two teeth removed both on the same side I am able to eat a little bit. I Should go to bed soon and take another T 3 and put the ice pack on my cheek again to help prevent swelling. Hopefully I am feeling better tomorrow. Thank you for your prayers.
