If you cannot be a poet, be the poem. ~David Carradine

I'm getting pretty anxious about my written EMT national registry. I informed you wrong before, it is actually this  Wednesday! 
I got alot of studying done today though and I am feeling pretty good about it. 
 I'm ready to go take it right now. I
don't want to wait until Wednesday. 
I went to Barnes and Noble and utilized their EMT-B study books. I made an afternoon out of it. 
 This cracked me up when I looked up and recognized all the different patterns. haha
Please tell me you can read this because it is really funny. Enlarge it any way that you can. 


I picked up Brenda from work right from there and got a call from a co-worker asking me to come in tonight and cover the closing shift. Yesterday and Today were supposed to be my days off. I ended up working for someone last night and then again tonight. I won't have a day off again until Sunday. Good thing I love my job. :]
 I have to give a presentation tomorrow night on Diarrhea prevention and treatment. I will come up with something at work tomorrow and practice it by talking to myself. haha

Happy March!

Well it will be in a half hour that is. 
   Time is really flying by lately. 
             I have high hopes for this month, and really every month. haha
   I always love when A new month starts and I get to re-write my calender. Always a good time. 
      I finally hung my paper cranes. I have been meaning to do that for some weeks now. I love them.
They remind me that spring is well on its way. Some mornings I wake up and hear birds singing outside. 
I love that.

I just need to get over myself!

Have you ever looked back on life via pictures and blog posts and think "how was I not in love with life? It was so good!!"
   How did I manage to be so selfish yet still function at all???
I spend too much time feeling sorry for myself. I blame other people for things that I don't love about my own life.
I always think about that scene from the movie The Holiday and wanted to be the leading lady of my life but always managed to take a back seat then blame everyone else for putting me there when it was my own fault for being too afraid.




 I am choosing now to be the leading lady in my life story and not blame anyone else.




Life is so good!
    


Taking joy in living is a woman's best cosmetic.  ~Rosalind Russell

HIIIIIII YA!!!!!!! karate chop!!!!

 I ate a Cup of Noodles today. The shrimp kind. ha
I was reading in a U.K. Glamour magazine (those are the best) that the fringe look, aka bangs like mine, are becoming the thing. LOOK AT ME AHEAD OF THE CURVE. haha

Niki had a game night at her house tonight so  I hung out there at her apartment and had a brilliant time! 
She makes life fun. 
Then seeing as how it is friday and all, Shekinah and I got our Salsa on!
I was so tired by the time I got there that I couldn't seem to dance well at all. 
One of the guys even asked me if I was ok. He said I seemed less enthusiastic. I was embarrassed a bit because I seldom dance with this guy but like him. 
I am in LOVEEEEEE...with life. :]
Tomorrow I have off and I plan to sleep in and hopefully do some major EMT studying. I have my National Written final on Thursday the 3rd. Prayer would be nice. It's a big deal really and I have been out of EMT school since dec.28th.

Please tell me that you find this at least half as lovely as I do

This piece is by Silas Toball. I found it in a Magazine today and fell in love with it! Maybe it has something to do with my recent love for origami cranes, or maybe it is because it is stinkin' beautiful!!!

Today just has one of those feelings

One of those feelings that says "it's a great day! Don't you love it???"
I do love it!!!!!

WARNING!! This post may not be for the squeamish

Some of these photos look almost like something out of a gore filled murder movie. 
We got to do some stitching last night in class. 
  As strange as it may sound, it was alot of fun.  
What did we practice on ?
I'm so glad you asked!!!


COW'S TONGUE!!!!!


This was my specimen. 

                                                We were all pretty excited about this,
                                                          and we got really into it!
         Future heart surgeon right there in the black.
Aren't you glad he is getting practice on a cow tongue now?
                   Once you figured out the first few knots and got the wrist action down it was easy peasy!

    Look at my handy work. hahaha 
You can see the progression of my stitches. The nice looking ones on the right were the last ones I did.
Look at the taste buds on Manaal's cow tongue! 
SO ridiculous!


Aren't you glad I showed you this?
You know you are studying the right stuff when you enjoy this a ridiculous amount. 


After we finished with our stitching fun, Shekinah, Clayton and I went out to Applebees of course. 
  This huge group came in and sat right at a table next to us. 
Then to our complete surprise and delight they started busting out in song, barber shop style. It was delightful really it was!





Sorry if this grossed you out. I thought my parents at least would get a kick out of me stitching. 
That reminds me, look at my mom and niece petting a camel!!!

I cannot wait to go visit them. I am getting wrestles and think I may have caught the travel bug yet again, and if I know anything about viruses it is that you cannot treat them with antibiotics!
OH NO! I am developing a cheesy medical sense of humor!

Friends

I can't wait to tell you about class last night and show you pictures, but homework comes first. 
I am surrounded by text books and papers. So many case studies and now this vaccine info chart. Goodness!!
I'll leave you with this while you are waiting. :]

We could talk of the weather, or

I wish my angry dance looked this entertaining.

On the rare occasion that I do get angry, it just looks like a tall white girl with bangs organizing anything she can get her hands on. 
I guess we all have our ways of dealing with anger. 
Have you ever watched this show? Flight of the Conchords? If you haven't then you are really missing out.
I am amazed at how much this reminds me of the way me and my sisters interact.
 That is probably why I find it so funny. 


The weather has been so bizzarre today,
(please don't think I am talking about the weather just to make polite conversation or something)
I rode my scooter to work this morning and it was just a bit cold but fine. Then it started snowing while I was at work. It snowed off and on for almost 3 hours. When the next barista got there for her shift it was snowing. I went and counted out my till, got out of the office and the sun had come out and it had stopped snowing. 
The roads were dry for my ride home. SO weird right???
The sun is still out now though, in case you were wondering. :]
You can tell spring is coming though because everyone is ordering Italian and French sodas these days. 
They are so good.
I always get the French Soda with Strawberry, Mandarin and Vanilla.
This is probably the only drink that I don't put a mountain of whipped cream on.


Doesn't this picture make you thirsty???

I need to be honest with you. I have neglected my 365 picture thing over the last few days. I have simply not taken pictures. I did add what I did take over the  last week. Let me know what you guys think of my week. haha

         I'm gonna do some cleaning and fold my laundry. I hope your days are going well. :]




Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,
   “Never will I leave you;
   never will I forsake you.
  Hebrews 1:5

random update.

I was thinking today, that I will probably have to take a trip to the mid-west this summer and sell my stuff that is being stored in Green Bay.  It seems so un-necessary to have all of those possession sitting around when I am here and don't really care. I wouldn't mind a bit of extra money though. I'm trying to think how is the best way to sell the stuff. I guess I could try to figure out eBay.  I'm not sure. Any thoughts?
Want to buy any of my junk???
I will probably have to sell my favorite yellow chair. 
Oh well worse things have happened.



Shekinah said she would get an apartment with me if she stays in Boise. :]
We were talking about it today after church. I love that we both don't want a TV in our house. LOVE HER!!!


 I'm hoping to find work as an Emergency room Tech.
That would be an ideal job I'm thinking.
We will see what life brings I guess. 

You can take a girl out of the Mid-west, but you can't take the mid-west out of the girl

I got home from work tonight and naturally went straight to the fridge. I always feast after work.
 My dialog with myself went something like this
"What can I eat?
What do I really want?
 I really want cheese.
How can  I eat just cheese without being a total fatty?"

  I made a salad, heavy on the cheese. :]
I sure do love cheese!

Dear Ania

       I know I know, I am a day late in posting this, but please don't think that I forgot. I certainly did not!





                       HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!



                      Sorry I got a bit upload happy! I was just having a good time re-living these moments!





   I hope your birthday was FANTASTIC!!!!
                I appreciate you so much, all the stuff we have done together. All the times you inspired me. All the support you have given me over the years, and especially for being totally ridiculous with me all the time and thinking nothing of it!
                                         LOVE YOU!

For the love of LIFE!!!!!!

                                               

            If you are thinking that I am becoming obsessed with Salsa and life in general then you might be right. I am a huge fan of both and rightfully so!!
Looks like Shekinah and I may be going dancing again tonight. haha
 Yesterday was kind of funny; I worked a 7 hour shift and it was slow and boring and i was really restless. Then I go to Shekinah's so we could make plans and it turned out that she was also having a day where she just felt negative. We decided we should go out anyway and see what adventures we could find, or at least what sort of desserts we could find to devour and drown our frustration.  During our drive we complained about everything we could think of, than we found a muffin and a giant cookie at a coffee shop downtown, though we felt let down that they didn't have the giant chocolaty brownie thing that we really wanted.(just another reason to complain)  Food therapy is the best!

Then we figured that dancing can only help us feel better at this point, and if nothing else it would work off the food we just ate in excess. 
    It was a great night for dancing. We danced almost non-stop from 10:30 till about 1 something in the AM.
  I am pleased to announce that I graduated to the next level. I.E. the good guy dancers started asking me to dance. YEAH!!!!!!!

   Today I woke up and was surprisingly not sore. Work was also really good. I got some good tips and saw alot of my favorite co-workers. 


      I got home and Brenda right away said "DO you want some pasta?" Oh man she knows me too well. :]



 I'm off for now to go buy some much needed dancing shoes and go dance. LOVE MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Oh also..... Check it out
http://twodressesstudio.blogspot.com/2011/02/butterfly-effect-update-17.html

 YOu should certainly get involved in this. :] Just saying. 
    They got Niki's and my Butterfly mixed up, but I'm sure that can be fixed. 
Have a good day, and be sure to enjoy life!!!

Dance Dance

We had this crazy hail storm yesterday. It hailed for a few minutes and then started snowing right after. Then about a half hour later the sun came out and melted all the snow and hail.  Bizarre weather much???

                      This is a picture from my bedroom window of the hail coming down.

                            I ran outside to snap a few pictures right before it started snowing.
                                           It looks like I am standing in a bunch of dippin dots.




              Last night Shekinah and I tried out a new dance studio called Heirlooms.
                    They have open dance salsa on Wed. nights starting at 10 and it is only 3 dollars.                           I even curled my hair for the occasion. 


      


The group there was much smaller, but that just meant that you got to dance with different dancers, and some of them very good. 


 Alot of the guys also made sure to teach you  while dancing, which takes things to a whole new level.
 It helps you get to know your partner so much better.


    It was just good practice, not to mention alot of fun, obviously!


I cannot wait for my sister to get here and go dancing with us.


                       
                         This was my poor attempt of taking a picture of Shekinah and Gama dancing.

   THis studio also offers a bunch of dance classes. I am seriously considering taking Lindy Hop classes.




Umm yes please!!
 And Swing maybe in the future.

What do you think??

Do you know your love language?

Take this test and find out, then let me know what you got.
My results were:

Love Language Scores:
8 Words of Affirmation
11 Quality Time
5 Receiving Gifts
0 Acts of Service
6 Physical Touch
Interpreting and Using Your Profile Score:
The highest score indicates your primary love language (the highest score is 12). It's not uncommon to have two high scores, although one language does have a slight edge for most people. That just means two languages are important to you. The lower scores indicate those languages you seldom use to communicate love and which probably don't affect you very much on an emotional level.


Quality Time
In Quality Time, nothing says "I love you" like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there—with the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standby—makes you feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed activities, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful.





Interesting right??
I'm not sure if you had a chance to notice, but not only did I make a page for my Ireland Adventure, but I  also added to it just the other day. I also hope to finish typing it up over the next few days. I have off until Friday.
:]

 Tonight in class we talked about things pertaining to eyes and ears. After lecture we went to the Vineyard clinic and practiced looking at each others eardrums . It was a good time. I found out that my ear canal curves upward (which is not normal). In fact the PA that taught us tonight said that she has never seen an ear like mine before. Maybe that explains why I seem to mis-hear things so often.

          I must say that I truly enjoy after class wing-night with my class mates. It was Shekinah, Clayton and I tonight. It is always a good time.
    We always end up having some really interesting conversations.     I am a fan of thought provoking people.
We got on the topic of the opposites attracting. We went as far as to imagine what it would have been like had my "opposite" been sitting at the table with us, and we all decided that we are not a fan of him and the awkward things that come about because of him. hahaha     We then tried to figure out if Clayton would be better with his equal of opposite, the verdict was that Clayton himself is too balanced to have an opposite. Just wait till you meet Clayton and then you will understand.

Some other things we noted is that there seems to be a corilation between how often a person moves and how long of an attention span a person has when it comes to movies. Here are the stats.

 Person moves frequently while growing up (once every1-2 years)= will watch 1 movie occasionally (this would be like Shekinah)

Person moves occasionally while growing up (once every 2-5 years)= Will watch a movie more frequently, 
can make it through long movies like Pride and Prejudice (BBC) and LOTR extended.
(This is my stat)

People who are born and raised in one area= are huge fans of all day movie marathons, and honestly love movies. (this would be Clayton)

I know this seems utterly ridiculous, but my experience confirms it. I can think of Many examples.

   As usual, tonight I talked probably way too much, and most likely said some utterly ridiculous things, but I don't care. I am happy and that is all that matters.  :]
   I was thinking tonight though, about how much I miss Josh (thehindenburg) and his ridiculous ways! I need to find more Irish blood here.
 

 I'm sorry for how random my thoughts are. I am forgetting how to spell even as I type.
My mom also has a new post on her blog. I just added the post a few minutes ago, it is from an email she sent out.
I LOVE YOU ALL!



Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. Hebrews 13:2
    I wonder if I have ever made coffee for an angel?  I hope I get to!

Have you ever been slapped in the face with the Bible?
Not literally but figuratively.
 That happened to me last night. I was at work just thinking about a bunch of things and just pondering like I do, and when I got home I thought I would just read a little something something before bed. SO I picked up my Bible and opened it where one of my many book marks were and read the chapter there. Hebrews 13.
 1 Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters. 2 Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. 3 Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.
 4 Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral. 5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,
   “Never will I leave you;
   never will I forsake you.”
 6 So we say with confidence,
   “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
   What can mere mortals do to me?”
 7 Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
 9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so. 10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.
 11 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp. 12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood. 13 Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore. 14 For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.
 15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name. 16 And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
 17 Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you.
 18 Pray for us. We are sure that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way. 19 I particularly urge you to pray so that I may be restored to you soon.
Benediction and Final Greetings
 20 Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, 21 equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
 22 Brothers and sisters, I urge you to bear with my word of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you quite briefly.
 23 I want you to know that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.
 24 Greet all your leaders and all the Lord’s people. Those from Italy send you their greetings.
 25 Grace be with you all.

**SLAP!!**
\Everything I was wondering about was addressed in this chapter. 
I'll possibly blog more later. Once i am done with work and class for the day.

I feel more blessed than depressed on Valentines Day.

Please tell me that you love this as much as I do??
              LOVE Simon and Garfunkel, which I'm sure everyone in the world already new!!!







 Now that we are being honest about things, I really don't care at all about Valentines Day. Like at all either way. I will be possibly the weirdest and most un-conventional girlfriend/wife. 
    I worked a 3 hour shift tonight. SO uneventful. I love working though; just getting out of the house is enough for me, and instead of having to spend money I get paid to be out and about. :]

   This is a picture of the place that I go Salsa dance at with my way cute friend Shekinah. :]
 Speaking of Shekinah... This is her fretting over which cookies she truly wished to consume.
 
She turned right as I took the picture and caught me. haha
We actually ended up with a bag of Cheeseburger flavored Combos and a KitKat bar.
The Cheeseburger Combos were a bit heavy on the pickles.
We are a bad influence on each other. All we ever want to do it eat. haha


              On sunday we passed out the truffles that we had made and boxed and had people pre-order. 



          

                                                            Clayton and Manaal.
                                               Me and Clayton. 
                                                          This is most definitely my bad side. :/
                                               We figured out a final design for our Mission Medic T-shirts on Sunday!
                                                 Great news right!?

Sunday, February 13, 2011

Love life!

            Happy Valentines Day everyone!
                          I got this in the mail the other day. It is from my family! Love them!!!!
           I am looking forward to busting it open and feeling guilt free about it.
                   



hahaha

I just realized that I should probably take pictures of some of these new friends of mine so you don't think that I am making them up, and going on to tell stories about our brilliant adventures together. :]
hahahaha
 Perhaps I like you thinking that???  

I'm a big girl now, see my big girl shoes...*humming**

The Weather today was B-E-A-U-TIFUL!
 It was in the 50's all day. It is 48 now at 3am. Love!!!!!!
 Today I slept till way late then rode Baby to work. Work went really well, I think that is  because it was so nice outside, and I was busy the whole time.
   After work Shekinah and I thought we would go out and see what sort of things we could find to do. SO we put on our big girl heels and headed out. We went downtown in search of live music or something. We found our way to this small downstairs christian coffee shop. Unfortunately we just missed the live music. It was a really cute place though. I ordered a Chai tea latte that was really in-expensive and really really really good.
:]
    We sat and talked for a while then decided we would go "creep" on the Boise cafe. There was salsa going on tonight as well as last. I couldn't handle a second night of salsa so we decided against going again tonight. Not only does it cost money to go, but my knee, and butt are still sore from last night.(it takes mad muscles to swing your hips like that for 3 straight hours) So we walked to the cafe and saw what was going on. It looked like a much smaller group than last night.  We also passed a dancestudio that does all sorts of different types of dancing. Shekinah was saying that on Wednesday nights they have $3 salsa lessons followed by free dance time at this place. I think you can guess where I will be this wednesday.  I'm hoping that I will find out about some swing lessons when I am there. I really do enjoy salsa, but I think I would like swing even more. I probably wouldn't look so white either. haha

 We had an interesting conversation on the way back to ma ville! We were talking about how with some people opposites definitely attract, but with others they need someone more like themselves. I was thinking about what my "opposite" would be like, and I really don't think I could stand  him for very long. He would have to be shy, more serious, always have things planned out and mapped out, more level headed and grounded, be a homebody, and worst of all he would probably be into video games and excessive tv watching.    I could not handle that at all!!
           Shekinah on the other hand is one of those people that is really attracted to her opposite. Rather than try to explain her or her opposite I will just wait and let you all learn about her by either meeting her in person, or by learning a bit more about her from my posts.
      
                What do you think  about the whole opposites attract thing??




This video made me really want to paint, or do some pastel pieces.


I always loved this song. Especially the first verse.

my feet are a bit sore from 3 hours of barefoot dancing

It's 1:30  am and I just got back from some salsa a half hour ago.
I took the lesson tonight and there was a lightbulb moment!
 Dancing after was so much fun. There is nothing better than being led around a dance floor by some guy with rhythm. SO awesome!
    There are some older guys there that are so fun to dance with because they are so good at leading. You start out doing a simple dance and then all the sudden you are in some sort of arm pretzel, then you are spinning and twirling and its just amazing!!!

    I was dancing with one guy tonight, and he asked me if I belly dance..hmmm...
I thought that was an interesting question. I immediately thought of my mom. hahaha

 SO now I am going to relax and watch some scrubs and eat some poppers. :]



                                                                 Goodnight!!!!
I'm currently..like literally as I type this..working on a Mission Medics website. Hooray!
Ill post the link when it is completed, or near

Do the Truffle Shuffle

wearing sandals to class tonight was  a terrible idea. Though today was pretty nice (in the 40's at least) tonight was not so nice. The building we have class in never ceases to be freezing yet I still do stupid things like wearing sandals.



I worked today for 5 and a half hours about. One of my managers wants me to go to the store that is opening in Nampa and work in the cafe there. She is hopefully going to manage there and was told that she could hand pick her team of baristas. I feel way honored to have her ask me, but considering I drive a scooter and it is about a half hour away I think I will stay where i am.  Besides I will hopefully be moving downtown this summer so Nampa would be about an hour away then.

Anyways....I worked then came home and rested before going to class.
Tomorrow I work, then I'm going salsa dancing with some friends downtown.I am pretty excited about it. I plan to actually go to the lesson this week though. haha

 We finished up the truffles last night. Here are some photos of the  boxing, wrapping and organizing stage. This is the only stage I really helped with. I missed the baking stage of the truffles. I was a bit sad about that, but I got over it.

 The Truffles.......mmmmm



                                                                   

                                                      So let me put a name to the faces.
                                    From left to Right it goes; Gary, Elen. Manaal, and Shekinah. :]




 Once the boxes were filled, we feasted on anything we could find; Including sprinkles.


 I bought two boxes of my own. I bought mixed boxes, but just between you and I, I have an in with people boxing and I asked them to make one of them heavy on the peanut butter. Love the peanut butter ones.
 
                                             Here is how cute the truffles are in the box. :]
                                             There is another layer to that box by the way.
                                                              Each box has 10.



                                              This is just my Valentines Day gift to myself. :]
Speaking of which, some guy came rushing into the store today and said to me "You look like someone who would be able to help me out with this, do you know what day Valentines Day is?". I told him that it was February 14th.
   I don't know what he was aiming at with the whole "You look like someone who would be able to help me out" part. Weird weird weird.




             I couldn't think of a better way to end this post than with this Scrubs clip. Love this show.

Wednesday, February 9, 2011

SO I have this idea for a book I want to put together. I have been thinking about it for a while now and I really would love to see it come together. The great thing about it is that it would require me to do minimal writing and more just information gathering.
How about this, My new years resolution is to get something done on this book.
Wish me luck. By the way, if you are reading this, you may be one of the lucky people who I contact and ask to be a part of adding to this book. Just btw!

I LOVE TOLKIEN!

Last night I stopped by work to rent some movies and pick up my work schedule and I asked one of the book department ladies to look up a book for me. Naturally It was a Tolkien book. As we looked through the listings on the screen a Lord of The Rings devtional came up on the list.

   My co-worker was shocked by it. I wasn't because I had seen it before but always thought the idea was a bit far fetched. Am I the only Christian in the world who is sick of hearing people try and find something in nothing, and making nothing out of something.
    I don't know if I am making much sense but I am just wondering.

I have heard the arguments behind this devo; about how Tolkien was a christian and thus wrote Lord of the Rings all while trying to subtly trying to make it an allegory.
 I just stumbled upon this quote and think that  it may change a persons thinking on that.

"I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations, and always have done since I grew old and wary enough to detect its presence." -   --  J. R. R. Tolkien



 

  "  His house was perfect, whether you liked food, or sleep, or work, or story-telling, or singing, or just sitting and thinking, best, or a pleasant mixture of them all."
 -The Hobbit

                        Some day I will have a home like this, maybe sooner rather than later.

I was so sad to leave

                                                       look what I got to go to bed to. :]


After sleeping so well last night all snuggled up with the snoring, chubby puppies I had to get up and pack up.
 I was so sad saying good bye to the dogs. I packed up my scooter and opened the garage door to leave and it had started pouring rain. I went back in to wait for it to stop and it started snowing. It snowed for maybe a half hour (it didnt stick though), then stopped. Right as it stopped Linda got home (The lady I was house sitting for).

I waited a little while for the roads to hopefully dry up and then I set off. It was such a long ride home. It was so windy out  and because of the rain it was just dirty and slushy. I am so glad I have a full face helmet considering how many mud splatters are on it now. Without it I would have been one freckled girl.

  It was really cute though because I packed in a canvas bag and for the ride home I put Magnus in it so that his head and arms were peaking out the top as though he were riding on the back of the scooter. SO CUTE!
   This bus of pre-school aged kids went by me and they were all looking out the windows and pointing and laughing at it. It made me so happy to see them all  laughing at my Dinosaur riding on my scooter with me.
:]



 After I got home I tried skyping with Ania but it honestly didn't go too well because my internet is terrible.
                                          We were showing off our silly bands! Hooray! Mine is a dinosaur!



I have the next few days off so I went to Hastings and rented a season of scrubs and bought the new Iron and WIne cd for the next few days.
