P.S it was 4 days again

I honestly dont have a habbit of skipping 4 days of journal writing, its really not like me.. Ive just been so busy!

almost done!!

I have reached 50 000 words! See << Over there! I am really excited! But my story isn't finished yet. I'm hoping to finish it tonight, I'm almost done. I was going to try and aim for 60,00 words, but I think once I'm done this thought I'm goin ggto end it. A suitable young adult/youth novel is 50 000 words, so it's not bad for my first one. Besides I'm tired and I want a break! But I'm impatient and don't want to wait haha.

It's been 4 days again

Wow I havent been on the computer really at all lately. I'm behind on my word count and I used to write in here several times a day and lately I've been too busy. Woirk has really gotten to me. and its not like i have long shifts i just do that then try and fit in everything else i used to do in a dya. plus the morning is my computer time, and i work in the mornings now, so i guess that smye xcuse.

well nothing really is new for me. Mom found a house that she can rent in demerton. So were going to help her fix that place up and get in move in ready, pack her up and move her all in less than a whole month yikes! she got a really good deal ion it though and the owner said we can have a veggie garden and there are cheery trees,m pear, apple and something else trees in the back yard. peach trees i think, should be a good summer for fruits and veggies!!

anyways i think thats it!!..

Need more shifts!!

Sooo, I have picjed up 2 extra shifts so far. Sunday morning and Today from 1030-2.. That is pretty exciting I must say. It's kinda wierd to have to work 3 days in a row.. haha... I'm still only on the schedule for 9hrs a week going into the second week of decemeber.. this is not good! Need bigger paycheck! But I'm doing okay picking up shifts, so hopefully I can continue to do so. I have opened and closed now so I should be good to do that if someone needs it. Yesterday it was sooo boring!! I was twiddling my thumbs trying to figure out what to do.. I did some extra cleaning and such.. and I folded napkins.. I went home early. I lost an hour, but it was an extra shift so i guess thats okay. Plus I talked my boss into giving me an extra hour today haha.. She needed to be off at 1130 but that would mean she would hav to rush around to get to her appt on time, so I told her to take the time she needed and I would come in when she needed me to. it's not fair to her to have to rush around trying to get everything in, when help is cmoing in anyway. So I told her she may as well leave when she needs to and have enough time to breathe because that is important!!  :)

Anyways I'm going to go pee now :) and then I'm going to watch a little bit of Ellen before I go to work.

4 days!

its been 4 days since my last post a lot has gone one. i'm back at work and really liking it. it's been really nice.. uhm what else?? My skin hates winter!! Ughh im breaking out everywhre and my hands aer cracking and my legs are so rough and i feel like i have alien skin..

I'm also not sure of what my word count id i just know that i am behind because I havent done anything in like a day.. so im pretty afar behind i would think now..

Ian Nathan Ben and Eric had their birthday party last night.. it was pretty amazing! soo many epolep can fit in our house its pretty awesome haha there was: Eric, Bria, Ben, Jodie, Nate, Darren, Andrew, Amber, Alyssa, Chris, 3 people Ben works with, Margaret and Scott and a person who helped them with thw bday cakes.. uhmm,, who else? I think thats it.. 17 people.. youll notice that Ian didn't come to his own birthday party. silly boy.. We had so much fun. Eric didn't come to bed till 630am!.. I got up for work a half hour later.. so if he didnt go to bed till 630 then people were still here tilll then.. i feel bad for those who were sleepign in the basement.. they had to wait to go to bed poor people!!..

What else? Oh I volunteered at 10 thousand villages. it's this really neat store type of thing. The organizaition pays 3rd world countries half of what they compromise on. they use that to buy materials and such and they make all of these amazing things for yor home like baskets and decor.. christmas decorations.. etc... they garuntee the workers are earning fair wags and yeah i thought that was pretty amazing. so many beaitful things there!!

uhm i think thats all the significant things that happened really.. Everything else was just me being alive for rthigns.. AHAHA :) uhmmm.... okay thats it.

Okay so yesterday We had cubs.. We had a plan.. it was to make their binders efficient, put all of the papers in and sort them so that they all have the same things in them .. But not all of the kids brought their binders.. grr!! So we had to wing it. we played games and we did some songs and skits and cheers.. and played more games.. haha.. They were really hyper so I guess it's better that we didn't do very much. lol :) 

I love those kids <3

I'm going to use this badge, maybe a few other ones.. and I'm going to write my word count, my novel description and the name of my novel and such.. it's gonna have my name on it and its gonna look really really.

back to worktoday

i went back to work and im not really sure how i feel about it. i was very excited but it feels weird to be back. especially since today i had the most human interaction i have ever had, and i had to move to quickly.. It was very over whelming, but i am glad to be back. my boss is being great shes bringing me back very slowly starting with 10 hours a week and i think that i can handle that.. but we will see

Back to work today!

yikes I'm pretty nervous about going back to work. I went into the backroom last night to get my schedule and it all seemed so foreign to me. I am excited about going back, actually. I have been waiting for today for a while. I think I'm finally ready,but we will see. 

Last night I had the most amazing night!! I invited Aunt Linna and her 4 kids over to play in the leaves because they had a P.D day from school. This made me want to invite Mom and Justin too, so I did. And then I decided that I was going to invite Amy&Darby and their 2 kids for a full house! We had a lot of fun eating spaghetti, spilling water on my yahtzee game (Thanks mom!) and laughing until we were all crying.. it was a really great night and Im proud to say i hosted it all in my own house! that was rather exciting. like super duper exciting!! :)

xox

Yawn

Okay so I have been having the most amazing week... I'm starting to really be able to feel happy.. instead of just accepting that i probably am happy but not feeling it.. I have actually been feeling it this month and it's really exciting that I can feel things again.. my only issue is that I have been sleeping in.. When i first started trying to get better I was up early every morning... I had a lot of problems getting out of bed but I still did it.. This past week I have been sleeping in until 9.. and I don't really like it. I enjoyed getting up early.. I really just wish that I could do all three.. Get up early - Have a good week - Be able to control my emotions. When I was watching TV on Wednesday night.. I got soo sad and depressed.. both of my shows were really depressing and they made me cry and just feel awful.. I've never felt like that watching these shows before. They need to learn to be more perky so that I can keep watching them.. I'm just really confused.. :(

Playing in the leaves

Today I made a huge breakfast and we finished it off by playing in the leaves, outside. I sat in a tree while Eric raked. It was a lot of fun.. I have never really climbed a tree before... I know of one time and it was barley effort cause it was so low.. anyways.. i have a tree i can climb in my backyard and im excited.. after i climbed in the tree we playing in the leaf pile! it was so much fun!!... like it must have looked weird these 3 grown adults playing in leaves, laughing hysterically and having bunches of fun! haha

VloggingOkay so

as of right now.. i am going to film my first video today.. I am doing it on a webcam so it' not gonna be as pretty but until I get a cord that will plug into the computer, this is all I'm gonna do for now.. I have been wanting to do vlogs for a while. I'm going to film a couple today. As many as I feel like, like I might get only one done and then be like " thats its!" but im hoping to do a couple more.. and then Ill edit them and put them up on youtube! Excited! yay

okay thats it for now!

Busy Busy!

Okay so when I got back from heathers I wanted to organize so very badly! I completely emptied the cupboards in my kitchen and made them really pretty and efficient. Before if you wanted something out of the bottom cupboard you had to litterlly put your body inside of the cupboard to fish it out. I figured I had forever to organize it because we're not going anywhere, this house is perminent. But then I thought to myself "gosh self,  you're pretty dumb.. why wait to organize them? idiot" so I did just that. Now I can actually find the lid to the tupper ware container that I want and I can easily get anything from the bottom cupboard that I need. I also organized the shelf in the kitchen. I used to put anything and everything on that shelf and thought that someday I would clean it off.. Well that somday was sunday and I made it look absolutely fantastic. Next I brought down all the boxes int he craft room closet and put them in the basement in storeage where they belong. I am going to finish putting up the pictures today I hope. Erics dad was telling me that I had the pictures in the wrong places because I didn't have the nails in the studs I only had them in the drywall. But I don't really know much about that stuff and they seemed fine in the dry wall so I think im going to get Eric to help me so that I can put the nails into the studs properly. The next time I go to moms Im going to bring home the table shes giving us, so that my craft table can finally come up here YAY!! 

Soon I am going to be posting pictures of my wonderful organizational skills. :) I'm gonna be adding tips and tricks to hide junk and make it look like it belongs!

Back from heathers!

I got to see H-Butt this weekend!! She moved into a pretty apartment! So I helped her. I went down with Ron and Peggy and we had a wonderful weekend. We had a hair dying party and moved and unpacked her whole apartment, it looks fantastic. We also went to a million stores filling her empty cupboards of things that went missing since she last had her own place. I havent seen her in such a long time, I missed my best friend, it was really nice to be able to spend time with her. We even got to have a sleep over! Yay!.. I found the cutest little ginger bread man at this second hand store for only a dollar!! he was brand new he still had his tags. I was very excited with my dollar purchase! isnt he cute?

Heather and I rocked our sock monkey hats at walmart, people were jealous!

Today I also reached over 10000 words for NaNoWriMo! YAY!.. I started writing some on the truck on the way to welland, but it was soooo very bumpy!! So I couldnt stand to write much ... But I wrote maybe like half a page.. not even i dont think.. it was 2 and a half small /medium note book pages.. anyways.. i ended up writing like over 2 thousand words.. they just kept coming and coming didnt even have to think about it.. it was great!! okay thats it!!

My hair smells soo good. I love the smell of hair dye in my hair yum yum!

100 posts!

This is my 100th post! and though I don't really have much to say. I am at 3825 on my word count for NaNoWriMo. And though that is quite far behind I am very excited about it. I'm sorta at a little bit of a hault like I explained in a previous post. I'm not really sure what to say, but I will find something that will inspire me to write more. 
Okay so I'm kinda sad. It is snowing outside. I don't like snow and I want it to go away. It is november now and it's been cold for a long time, so I'm assuming the snow is gonna stay this time. I have errands that I wanted to run today so it better quit it! I have so many reminders on my phone... I really wish I would remember things, but I just don't! I have to remind myself that I wanted to drive Eric to work today! Anyways..
1 more sleep until I see Heather!! I am not really excited for the physical activity that is required for moving.. but we are having a hair dye party which does excite me. I've got my little packing list going and I'm gonna do laundry at some point today. We are staying in Welland for just one night, but I have soo many things on my packing list!! haha.. Just so i can stay occupied in the car. If I remember, or get around to it, I am going to find a notebook (that won't be hard) and write the last paragraph in my book and then i'm just gonna write it while were in the car. That way I don't loose a lot of time again. I'm not sure what I am supposed to be at, I can't really figure the site out. By my calculations I am supposed to be at 8335 words. I am 4510 words behind. This is not good. But I'm gonna try my best!! I'm hoping to finish the novel even if I don't do it by November 30th. 


Anyways thats enough for me. <3 Peaceeeeeee

NaNoWriMo

I just started about 2 hours ago on my novel. My word count is at 1727.. Daily you are supposed to write 1667 a day in order to reach the goal of 50000.. so in order to catch up im supposed to have 5001 words today!! Or 6668 words tomorrow.. That is a lot considering that I just started. I wish I had started earlier but I think that I can do it. Im starting to think that I am not sure how to keep writing but some how I'm still going!! I think that I need to incorperate the theme of the novel into the book more but then at the same time I don't really know how.. so I'm just going with the flow.. and im pretty excited with the out come!!

National Novel Writing Month

Sometimes in order to get your mind of things and completely loose yourself in another world... you need to write a book! It doesn't matter if you are good with words or not.. all that matters is that you want to do it. I have decided that I am going to try and write a novel! I am behind I have 0 words so far.. and I may not be able to start until thursday.. But once I get going on writing something I can write for hours!! and there's not very much I am doing lately.. so I may as well do something. It will be good for me. Cause now I have a planned activity everyday that means something to me. I have been meaning to write a book for a while now. I have 2 ideas that I want to write. I'm not sure which one I will do. both are fictitious but one has a little more reality to it, because it's sorta based on someone I know very well! but the other one seems cool too! Anyways.. I don't really know how to star either story but now that I have a deadline I will do it! .. Somehow! haha.. 

I encourage everyone to write a novel this month!! visit http://www.nanowrimo.org/ and sign up! The goal is 50,000 words! So you need 1,667 words a day to complete the goal!

Halloween Tips - Half Price!

So it's always nice to treat yourself to a little bit of un-healthy delicious tasting not very good for you calories! Halloween candy! Since I am too old to trick-or-treat I buy my halloween candy november 1st at half price. I get somethign that I know I am going to enjoy yet... take a while to go through. This year I bought lolli-pops.. I am a sucker for suckers! Love them to bits! So I bought a bag of those for like 3 dollars and it's going to last me probably until I'm married.. That's half a year away! Eric also bought some chocolate bars but I know those arent going to last the boys very long at all! :)

Another tip would be to stock up on half price halloween costumes. If you have a costume in mind I suggest picking it up after halloween. Costumes, masks, hats etc.. all go on sale on november 1st. This also gives you an excuse to buy crazy make-up. You can always use razt make-up for a night out at the bar, playing dress-up with younger siblings or cousins or theme nights at girl guides or scouts. Something along those lines. One thing I ALWAYS make sure I do when I'm shopping for a halloween costume is, I look for something I can use it for again. I try and come up with a couple characters just to see how many I can come up with. This year I bought a purple witch hat, but it was so crazy looking that I gave it to my mom, punched in the point and called her the mad-hatter! I bought a black hooded cape.. which I can reuse next fall as part of a darth vader costume for the Dorchester Cub Camp because the theme is Star Wars!

So that's my first tips and tricks blog post, hope someone found this helpful!

Happy November!!

Happy November! That is something my mom has said to my brother and I ever since I can remember! Every month on the first day she would say that. I can remember that I used to think that she was silly for saying it even when we were older.. Cause if she said it infront of friends they were all confused. She continued to say it when I moved out on my own. Then one month she forgot! And I was the most upset person ever.. I thought of the most horrible things in my head.. Shes mad at me.. she hates me.. why hasn't she said it? ..  So then I asked her and he had the biggest smile on her face, while I'm thinking of the biggest most horrible lecture is coming my way.. and she simply forgot.. And ever since then she has said it to me every month without fail! Unless I beat her to it! ... Just goes to show that sometimes the littlest thing that seems so silly.. can really mean a lot to you.

I love you mommy :)
