UGH

Well, winter is coming, which I guess in one way is ok cause that means Christmas is coming soon!!! But, it's cold and damp out and this morning, from my desk at work, I saw snow on the top of the mountain!! :(  They had snow at Big White today, that's one of the ski hills out here! People are still playing golf!!! Thanks Alyssa for all the encouragement!!! I am learning. I think I have it set where anyone can leave a comment on my blog so try again or have mommy help you!! I don't know why it wouldn't work.

We went looking for more Halloween stuff today!!!  The yard is starting to look like a graveyard!!  lol. Jeff, my son, got all excited about it but thinks we need more lights!!!  Only one more month til we can start decorating for Christmas!!! Woohoo!!!!

I forgot to take my medications last night so haven't been feeling the best today. :( I have Lupus (it's an autoimmune disease, where my immune system attacks my body instead of protects it). Anyway, have taken them all tonight so here's to hoping I feel better tomorrow. Have been working on eating better, resting more, and trying new ways to treat Lupus so that maybe I can be in remission (where I am not having pain, feeling sick, etc....for periods of time) a bit more often.

I think I might start my Christmas crafts so that I have a head start this year. I also am going to attempt Scrapbooking!!!  I have a couple of ideas for scrapbooks that I want to do. I have never done it and need to go over to dad's and see if any of mom's stuff is still there and what I need to go out and buy. Also, I think the girls and i will be getting together soon and doing Save the Date Cards, etc.....for the wedding. :)

Well, time to go for now. Maybe will look at changing a few things on here and then play a game or something and then bed. Have a great night. Oh yeah.......Peter is DJing a Wedding tomorrow night!!  It is at a nice Golf Course and if I am feeling better then I am going to go with him. Should be interesting.

Happy October!!!

Good morning!! Well, it's October now! I am finally going to be closing at 8 pm instead of 9 pm!!! That extra hour makes a big difference! I am so excited!!  I am learning how to add things to my blog and make it look nicer!! Thanks to my wonderful, smart niece!!! How did I get so lucky?? :) Peter (my fiance) and I went and got some Halloween stuff last night and I put the window decorations up this morning already!!! :0 The people that were out for their morning walks stopped and looked and gave me the thumbs up!!! Always nice when the older people approve!! :)  Now I am trying to get my son out of bed so he can go to work! He doesn't seem to want to get up this morning!! GRRRRR Maybe I will have to go in with a glass of cold water!! lol My other son, Tim, called this morning. Today he is moving out of his group home and into a Supportive Roommate place. He will be renting a room in a house with another guy and I think that there are a couple of other guys there as well. He is very nervous and I have to admit, so am I. He has been at the home for two years now and they think he is ready so we will see. He moves tonight! I think I am more nervous because I won't have that support if I need it with him! I know that sounds whimpyish but I can't help it. That group of people have been so wonderful to Tim and to me that it's scary to think I can't just call them and talk to them if he is here and having troubles. They have told him he can call them and go see them whenever he wants though so that's good. I believe he can do it!!!! It's time for him to have some independence and learn to deal with real life. I hope they have lots of support in place for him though as he will need someone to talk to if he is feeling frustrated, etc...........Just like we all do!!!!

Well, going to go and play around with my blog a bit more, do some tidying around the house and get ready for work!!! I also start an hour earlier since we are closing an hour earlier!!!! :)

Have a great day!!!!

Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Alyssa.............I did it!!!!!!!! :)  I added a blinkie!! All by myself!! hahahahaha Poor girl is going to be so embarrassed that I am her Auntie!! :)  Now that I figured that out........I am going to do so much with my blog!!! :)  Wait til you see!!! Well, I am at work and am not very busy at all. Only 45 minutes to go though so that's kinda cool! Then it's off to Walmart !!!!!!! One of my favorite stores!!!! It's getting cooler outside :(  I don't want winter to come! I would like Christmas to come and still have warm weather and not have to shovel sidewalks or wear boots and gloves!!! Oh in a perfect world!! I am thinking I will have to make one of these for our DJ company!!! That's right, we have our own DJ company and are just getting started. We are hopefully going to join the Bridal Fair in Vernon in January!!! That should be interesting!! We went to it last year for me as I am getting married in June 2010!!  So this should be fun!!!

Well, going to go and finish my reports and stuff. Have a good night!!!

My first Post!!!

My niece Alyssa, encouraged me to make a blog. So, I thought, "why not?" and here I am. I am very new to this and so it will not be very fancy but as I go along I suppose I will figure it out!! Alyssa said she would teach me over the email so that should be interesting. Wish her luck!! lol. This is just a short one to start as I have to go to work. :(  Will post more later.
