Been a bit..

Comment Published at 20:0020:004 comments4 comments12 Visits12 VisitsReport

Since I blogged..
But I'm doing ok..
I went to Curves last night, it was good. I thought I was going to be sore afterwards but I wasn't so that's a plus! I am going to go 3 times a week, every other day.. Probably Tuesday, Thursday and then on Saturdays! I just wouldn't be able to make it there on time for Fridays (since they close a little earlier!!) But it was good.. I hope it works.. I am trying to cut out alot of fast foods and eat at home..

I've been working all week.. Mostly, expect for Monday where I had it off because of Labour day then this Monday I got off because I have a doctors appointment to go to!!!

Anyways.. The new Bones show is on and I should go watch it.. Have a good night all..

Miss you :)

In some ways I wish it wasn't here soo fast.. But in ways I am happy because Caker is growing up more and more each and every day!! She is my LITTLE parrot, I swear!! Anything and everything I say, she will say.. Including swear words.. Opps.. lol..

It's raining today... The power went out over night, AGAIN!!!!!!! Go figure, living out in no where land I guess your power goes out more than what it should, lol!! Oh well, it came back on that's all that matters, I suppose!!

Today won't be much of a day.. Gotta go into Calgary AGAIN, man, I have no idea why we just don't live there again.. It looks like we are in there more than we are at home.. Gas prices went up again, from 122.9 to 131.9 crazy... So more money I gotta fork out for when I pay for gas.. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR... I heard somewhere at work that gas is suppose to go up to 175.. I sure as hell hope not.. I do not want that to happen, no way in hell.. Thats just cruel if you ask me lol!!

Gotta get going, put a jacket on and get into the truck.. Bye everyone :)

Yup, it's true.. I got my own laptop.. The other one we had, that I had gotten for free from Telus is now going to hubb.. Which is ok though!!!

I got a Toshiba, its nice... Real nice.. Need to get used to it though. It's quite different from the Lenovo that I have been using!! All in time, I suppose!!

Would you think... 3 days and it will be Septeber 1st.. CRAZY eh?? I just can't believe it myself..

Oh yeah.. We had our power out for 4 hours last night.. NUTS.. Some stupid idiot drove through where he wasn't suppose to and knocked down alot of power lines (main ones i'm thinking) Well finally about almost bed time, the power comes back on.. GRRRRRRRRR lol.. Ah oh well, at least it came back on!!

Thats my news for today.. Not much to report on!!

Just checking in, is all!!

Almost September, WOW!

I still can't believe that its only a few days away from being September.. Yea ok, like 6 days but stil...
This summer has gone by soo quick. I honestly can't believe it.
Where did the time go? I don't know.. Sometimes, I still wish it was the middle of summer and not the end of it already!

Hubby got home today, he will be home for a week.. Already, its not going so well.. Go figure.. Nothing ever seems to go good.. Now that he's home for a week, can I go somewhere for a week?? Would be nice though, wouldn't it?

My god, my mind went blank.. Hahahaha.. That hardly ever happens..
I was gonna type something but I totally forgot.. Opps, my bad.. Sorry!!

Maybe next time??

Why must she do this??

Comment Published at 09:1109:116 comments6 comments27 Visits27 VisitsReport

Caker has been being a real bad ass lately and honestly I am not to sure WHY she's doing this..

Ok, I'll let you know what she's done in the past week..

Taken litter out of the litter box and PUT it EVERYWHERE. I mean in big huge ass blobs of it in my bedroom, all through-out the hallway upstairs and obviously in the same room as the litter boxes are in.. (She's done this twice now, today and on Tuesday I believe it was)

NO, closing the door is NOT an option..

Then... She's taken potting soil out of the tree that we have in our living room and spread it all over the livingroom carpet (beige carpet) and in the dining room... This was on Tuesday too I believe.. Then yesterday she took it out and put it on the kitchen table and chairs (such a very nice set that we had handed down to us) and all over the carpet again.. (it's VERY hard to get out of carpet, especially when it's a very light colored beige)

NO, I do not have another place where she can't get at it.. Getting rid of it, ain't an option either.. (my husbands mother gave us it because when my husband was younger (5 yrs old) he bought her this tree and she gave us it)

Caker, is really getting on my last nerves lately... She just will NOT listen to me at all.. I mean, she even goes banging her feet on the floor to the point where I can hear everything rattle.. I smack her ass and she will still keep doing it. She will bang on the windows and I can hear it if I am outside with the dog (i can see her through the window) and even her running to the door to get me and Pilsner back in, I can hear that..

How can I stop her... I want her to start listening to me and NOW.. I have given time outs (in her room) and she will just scream at the top of her lungs with a screeching sound and its annoying and I'm sure my neighbours don't like it either.

I just want her to respect myself, her father, others and her toys and of course the animals as well.. We have threatened to take the kitten away because of the way she's picking him up, throwing him off the sofa or coffee table and just being really mean to this kitten :(

We have even threatened about throwing out all of her toys if she doesn't pick them up and that doesn't work. It's always me ending up picking up the toys (they are in the living room here - as she has ALOT in her room already!)

I just have no idea what has gotten into her lately and it better get out quick and FAST as I can't deal with her attitude and the way she treats us.. Mind you, she does have excellent manners (thank you, welcome, please and bless you she all says)

Soon, I am hoping????

Very tired..

Comment Published at 21:5621:562 comments2 comments10 Visits10 VisitsReport

Of course I am.. I had to work today, from 3-815pm........ Then, I drove 2 guys home that I work with because it was on the way to where Caker was staying. A friend of mine was looking after her!! She had a BALL of fun with her twins (they are 10 years old!)

I didn't get much sleep last night, and then Caker decided to wake up early because she wanted to!
Meh, don't much more I can do about that.

I can't wait til it's bed time.. I just have to let dinner settle down a bit then head upstairs and go into my nice and cozy bed!

I have the next 3 days off, so I am quite excited about that. Was suppose to have today off but yesterday they asked if I could work it.. Whatever, its 5 extra hours that I got to work that will be on my next pay cheque so that's ok with me!

I think now it's time for bed.... Night all!! :)

I'm  not feeling too well.. I have a huge ass migraine and with just stress of everything its just getting to me.. ALOT!

Appointment with Curves..

Comment Published at 19:5219:527 comments7 comments19 Visits19 VisitsReport

Was tonight.. I got there a little early so they took me in right away.. Filled out some paperwork and then she showed me around the 'circuit'... It's a 30 min work out that really does work.. I used the equipment myself, she showed me first what to do and then I did it afterwards!!
I could start feeling the muscles and everything doing what they were suppose to be doing.

The young woman who was helping me, she told me she lost 26lbs and I can't remember how many inches she had lost.. I hope it will work..

I want to do it, but I'm not to sure exactly..
It's $199 start up fee (right now I can have it at $67.66) and then if I sign up for a 12 month program I pay $49 a month (plus taxes) so it's not that bad.. Cheaper than most places!!

She took all of my measurements.. My weight, asked my height and all sorts of stuff.. Nothing out of the normal!!

What do you seem to think.. Should I do it??
I need some help in this part I think.. People to talk to, etc...
Encouragement I think.. Or whatever it is.. I can't remember the word I am looking for.. lol...

I guess I am the next to get flamed, because I reported a blog??

Whatever.... Don't care no more..

Got an appointment with...

Comment Published at 07:5707:573 comments3 comments12 Visits12 VisitsReport

Curves on Thursday at 515pm.. Right after I'm off work which is 4, I will swoop over and pick up Caker and then head to Airdrie (it's on my way home anyways!) and go see what it's all about.. How much it will cost, etc...
I asked how many times a week you have to go and they said anywhere from 3-5 days a week.. That isn't too bad, I could do the weekends for sure (as long as they're open on Sundays but I don't think they are!) So I'm thinking Saturdays and 2 or 3 nights out of the weekdays.. Hope it works.. Hope it ain't too expensive either!

Then, I called the other office about the "Lap Band" and hopefully they will call me back. They don't open until 10am and it's almost 9am so I have to wait. If they don't call back, then I will call them!

I personally, would rather do the Lap Band.. Like yes I can still exercise and what not, eat GOOD and not junk food but this way would be much easier, not cheaper thats for sure and yea..

I guess we'll see what happens..
I know I need to loose weight.. I am sick of being over-weight and nothing working for me :(

I know, I will probably never get back to what I was 6 years ago but its a thought!!
Just a waiting process now I think!!
