Home Sweet Home

I am home today. It is nice to be home, other than the fact that I have to do Laundry and it is raining out.... My Trip Up to Vernon was great. Got there in like 4 hours. Aunt Odette didn't know who I was when I walked up to the door. Her house cleaners were there and she was askeing them if they knew me and she thought that I was a neighbor and that I was coming because she thought that one of her sons was beating up on her kids.... But Nope it was me... It was very nice to see everyone. I went out to lunch with Dawn and James and Caleb and Nathan showed up. Dawn and I got our eyebrows threaded (just so you know it really hurts). Then I ended up at Dawn's work for the afternoon. I ended up falling asleep on one of the couches.... After work we went to work again at the pool.... I watched her kids swim, then we went swimming the to a movie. Then I got introduced to Dawns house. Very Very cute. Can I just Say that Dawn has a Very HECTIC Schedule. I don't know how she does it every day..... Saturday we had to get up early and go to the pool to coach again. then we went and worked out with Her Trainer Heather, and yes i am still soar but not too bad. We went and got some items that dawn needed at the store. Bananas and spinich that is for smoothies. After a short rest we had to get ready to go and watch UFC 104. It was an upset. At least that is what I think.
Sunday Dawn went and coached for the swim meet and I went to Odette and Keiths for Creps.... It was good... I have never had Peaches in my Creps before and it was very good..... had a nap. ate some lunch, watched a Vampire movie... Sorry but I don't know what one it was..... Then I hit the road for the 4 Hour Drive home. Got home at around 10 pm last night. All i wanted to do was crash.... and that is what i did..... My weekend was busy But it was very good.....

Weekend in Vernon

So my cousin, Dawn, has asked that I go and see her this weekend!!! She has been super excited and has planned out the entire weekend..... No not just fun things to do. She has planned workout after workout... I don't know if I would call that fun but I sure do know that it will be good for me. I am really excited about it. I will get to see her in her crazy hectic life of work and coaching..... I've even heard that she is getting a puppy... how cute is that... Also on this weekend in Vernon I get to see my Aunt Odette and Uncle Keith. Maybe even see some of my other cousins.... It has been a while.... like 5+ years for some.... CRAZY...

Hard Day

Today has been a long day for me.... and on top of that I am soar. I went to the YMCA in Lynden to work out. I did work out but when I was done my mom had called me and said I'm on my way..... So I went back out to the pool.... Altogether today I walked for 30 min. and swam for 1 hr and 15 min. I got home from my errands in town and I sat down at the computer to check my email and write to my cousin that my cell phone broke. As I was sitting there I could hardly type because of how soar I was... I can not even sit with out hurting...... But I did learn how to do the back stroke by myself today...
Rick my boyfriend found out this morning that he was not accepted to the BP job that he has wanted for the past year and half. The first time that he applied they put a hold on the job... something came up.... whatever that means. Well he applied again, and he got to the first test and they said we will email you if you make it to the interview or not. Well we went and dropped his son Andrew off at school, and when we got back he checked his email...... that is when we got the bad news. I don't think that I have ever seen Rick so down. It almost seemed like he was a big disappointment to everyone in his life especially to Andrew and I. Honestly I am just so proud of him and how far he got into the application process. It is hard to get a job out there and just the fact that he wanted to get that job so that he could support me as well as his son. You know that when someone does that for you that they love you. But now that he knows I feel like he is beating himself up so much. I called him after he went to pick Andrew up from school and told him that I was proud of him for even getting that far in the BP application process, and that I love him. All the he could say was I'll get it next time. I'll get it next time. Yeah I believe that. He will try his hardest to get it next time. Now it is time for me to try and find a job!!!
Well I think that that is all for know.... I will try to figure out how to do pictures later but hopefully there will be pictures.
