This week's agenda

Hi everyone

My vacation is going great! Yesterday I went to visit dory for dinner and she seems do be doing well. Ayriell is taller and is growing up so fast! She got second in Island track this year! She must is obviously not related to me that much because I would get last in everything at track and field. Too many of mom's cookies.

Today Austin, Freddi and I are going to Sudbury with Gran. I have a doctor's appointment at 10:45, then once Fred is off work at 3 we are heading over. Gran said she was there a couple of weeks ago with Joyce but she didn't get to go to the mall, so her and I are going to hit that up.

Tomorrow we are going to Little Current in the evening for Haweater. We don't really know where we are staying at night. We may end up camping on Nick's lawn, but I don't know how great that's gunna be. If we don't find a place to stay before we get there I may just DD so people have a way to get home.

That is the game plan thus far. Siren is doing well after her surgery. No puppies for her!!

On the Road Again

Hi everyone. I'm actually on the Greyhound right now headed for Sudbury. My bus was scheduled ot leave Yorkdale at 12:30 but since there was a major accident on the 400 it didn't arrive until 1. So the plan is that Aus will pick me up with Fred and Ryan once Freddie is done work. then we are visiting Jared I think and tomorrow we are getting them suits for the wedding. Last minute much? I was lucky to find a gorgeous dress at Forever 21 for only $27!!! It is white on the top, then a black belt, then a blood red skirt. It's fitted but not too much information lol.
Here are some pics of Dad, Marie and I at Fort York yesterday.

I'm baaaaaack



It is so nice to be welcomed by pavement, street lights, and fast food. Luckily and surprisingly I didn't get stuck beside some weird person on the bus. I got to sit alll by myself until we left Toronto and a young (not so cute) Asian guy say beside me. But I was alright with that because it was only 2 more hours until London.

Once I got to London my mom and Alana greeted me off the bus with a beautiful bouquet of daisies!! Sooo adorable! Then once we got home and got settled we went and did a little shopping, got photos done at Wal Mart of Alana and I, then we went and got our nails done.

Alana got a teddy bear on her toes
I got a classic french tip with sparkles :D
and mom got a pretty flower pattern
I took this pic on the plane. Arent the clouds so cool!?! I wanna just dive into them and hope they are squishy like cotton balls!
So after we went to the salon we came home and did some weird toe tricks...
And got a little messy with some choco-scented face masks (Thanks for those Tammy! Loved 'em!)

Then the next morning we slept in and mom sipped coffee from her new mug I found for her in Timmins. It says "mom@stressedout.com" I thought it suited her lol.
After mom was done her coffee she made us home made waffles! My favorite on a Sunday morning! I pigged out and ate 3, which I have never done before! After that yumminess alana and I hit the sun and got in a little reading.
I've got Deception Point by Dan Brown and of course Alana is reading her Twilight magazine! Her fave.

Today I am meeting up with dad at the mall, then I am spending time with him and Marie! Woohoo. We are going to Vaughn Mills (to empty my savings) and Sporting Life (to empty my savings even more) then we have planned to go to Fort York because Dad has been DYING to go there for years!!!

Hope everyone is enjoying life as much as I am! Love you!! HUGS

Day 90

One more day until I hop on the plane headed back to real life. I must say that I'm nervous about the stop in Timmins because our plane arrives at aroind 1:30, but my Greyhound bus to London doesn't leave until 8:00 pm. I might take a taxi to the mall there, or go to Chapters or something... Once the bus leaves at 8, it doesn't arrive in London until 10:40 the next morning, and I think I have to transfer busses too. Oh goodness. I need a private jet!

I'm going to miss Austin too. I am used to travelling with him but this time I'm flyin' solo. I'm super excited to see my family tho.

Tuesday I was supposet ot teach the first womens' dance class. So I had prepared for 2 hours that day, working out the lesson plan and choreography, only to show up and Jesse had forgotten and not got the keys to the gym. I'm getting the feeling that people here don't like dancing!

Hope everyone has a good weekendand I will let you all know when I arrive at Mom's on Saturday. I'm sure I will have an interesting story about the person I end up sitting with on the bus. I always do.

Day 87

Hi everyone!
I had a near death experience today. I went to make toast at Wendy's and found 2 forks and a knife jammed in it. Wendy said Talia must have put them there when she was up on the counter yesterday. Safe.

I must admit I have absolutely have the best boyfriend! I cam home to this wonderful boquet he had picked when he went fishing this morning.


And we also have the laziest dog ever.

Day 85

I'm still alive! Camping was so much fun! There were about 24 women there and there were games and we told our most embarrassing stories around the camp fire. There was also an inspiring workshop on making vision boards: bristol boards with pictures of thing you strive to eventually have in your life, eg. a car, money, health. I haven't made mine yet but Jesse and I are going to get together with a few other girls tomorrow night to work on them a bit more.


We had a relay race and the people at the start of the line (me included) had to run down to the lake, put a couple of litres of water into the buckets and run back. I won that part, because I was the only one able to run back without dying, but we ended up losing :( All that sweat for nothing.
Storytelling in the tipi. Those things that look like snow are water drops from the rain outside.
Down to the lake
Beautiful sunset behind the canvas tents
Adorable heart-shaped cloud that passed by this morning.

I got to use the camping set that I got Austin for his birthday. It works great and I slept on the air mattress Tammy got us. Comfy comfy. There were also piggy-back races that my partner and I won at and I got a journal :) It was a very fun day and hopefully I will get to do it again before I leave Albany.
