    Day over.

    I made it through the day. That’s an accomplishment. Doesn’t sound like it but it was. Today had the potential to be marked as one of the worst days in my history. Potential being the key word in that sentence. Because I don’t know what I would have done with myself if today was any worse than yesterday. I won’t go into specifics but my day ended on a very sour note. I will note that it was not my fault. I tried my best to fix the situation as fast as I could. I couldn’t be faulted at the way I handled the situation. It was a damn gongshow.…

    Thanksgiving Sunday

    So it’s Sunday…Thanksgiving to be exact. And I’m in Alberta. It’s going to be different. This time last year I was cooking up a storm for J, Mom, Greg, and Elaine. This year I cooked up a storm for Tanya and friends. I didn’t do much baking because Tanya was baking a lot but I couldn’t do nothing. So I baked some homemade pull-apart rolls. Cranberry sauce. Caramilk Fudge. And Snickerdoodles. I’ll post my rolls recipe soon enough. I also brought with me some of Nan’s pickles and the chow I made last year. So I definitely didn’t come empty handed. I also made Gram’s stuffing this morning and did…

    Adios weekend.

    So my weekend is over. Well, it’s over in 2 hours and that really sucks! I just want one more day. But no long weekends this week. There is a long weekend next weekend. Pretty saaa-weeeet if you ask me. I have no idea what we are doing for Thanksgiving. Last year we hosted Mom, Greg, & Elaine. The year before it was just J and I but we had Chris to eat our leftovers. The year before that we made it with Kimball. We usually went to Moncton and/or Stellarton as well I do believe. So we did our own thing and had family time. Well this year we…

    Erica Hahn says it best

    I don’t make friends easily. I’m awkward and am bad at small talk and generally don’t like people I don’t know… but I made friends with you and now you have this thing……I don’t make friends easily. This quote is brought to you by Erica Hahn (ok, I’m a dork. Quoting a tv show…but whatever I’m still awesome) but I could be heard saying this. This could have been easily said by me. Everytime I watch that episode and hear that “speech” at the end, I can’t help but relate. It makes me feel better about myself and my lack of social skills. Well, I do have social skills but…

    Tired

    Back to being tired a lot of the time. Just plain tired. I don’t want to get up out of bed in the am. But I do at the same time. I want to go to work and start my day but my butt is dragging. I want to be asleep early in the evening. But right now it’s almost 11pm and I’m still up. Doing laundry and typing away. But I realized tonight how much I miss my friends. Well not just friends…more so friendships. Close friendships I had with family and friends. I still have them. I know they aren’t lost but missing the person to person contact…
