(no subject)
so I guess it's been a couple weeks since I last updated. As you may or may not have read through facebook, I have been sad... perhaps you are wondering why (and thats why you nudged me? lol) Anyway, the reason is that Andrew moved away this weekend. He already didn't live close, but now he is further... I suppose to should go back a bit. Last weekend (not halloween but the one before) some friends of mine were having a costume party that I had invited Andrew to. He decided last minute that he would come up for the night, as he had just been laid off and wanted to drink and party and forget his troubles. I'm sure I mentioned that he is a train conductor? Well anyway, with the way the economy has been lately there has been less need for them, so he has been laid off, probably just for the winter he thinks. So anyway, we had a great weekend and spent most of Sunday together. Then a couple days go by and we are talking on Wednesday or Thursday and he tells me that he is able to work in Chapleau (http://www.chapleau.com/), and if he goes he would have to leave on Sunday. So the next day he confirms that he is going. No time to come to North Bay as he has to pack, and him and a buddy (also going to work in CHapleau) decided to drive as far as Sudbury on Saturday night... hense why I was sad on Saturday. I had an awful weekend, every time I thoughht about it I cried, I still want to sometimes, but I refrain from doing so cause it really doesn't help anymore. I have no idea what this means for us, but I think for now we will just have to wait and see what happens in 4 or 6 months. Until then, I have decided to join weight watchers, and increase my work outs at the gym, just to pass the time, and feel better about myself!
Anyway, I guess the weekend wasn't all bad. Friday night was pretty hilarious actually. We started out at the mall with Mel & Darren & their nephews, for some stupid halloween pirate show. Seriously the show sucked, so I went home and handed out candy. My parents went to the Legion with Mel & Darren & Darrens parents (and friends) for a drink... So I get a text from my sister after about an hour, I guess '1' drink turned in to 6 pitchers between the men, so a second driver was needed lol. Well my dad likes to think that he has a high tolerance, and that he wasn't drunk (even thouggh he was having a semi heart to heart with me lol) so he thinks he is driving home. Well my mom sis & I were not having that, and since we had 4 vehicles there we were in a bit of a dilema. I pulled a very sly move and snagged my dad's keys out of his coat pocket. Mel & I then proceeded to first take home Darrens truck, while I followed in my car, then we headed back to the legion and took my dads truck home. When we walked back to the table, my dad looked at me and said "You Bitch" lol then started laughing. I handed him back his keys and Darrens dad looked at me and said, "what the hell are you doing he can't drive!" I said "Don't worry Mike, his truck is at home" LOL so it was pretty funny. My dad still claims he wasn't drunk, but had no problem climbing in the back of my car, and then calling me on my cell and laughing histerically when I saw that it was him... yeah he was totally sober lol!
So I guess that is all for now, sorry for the novel, thats what happens when you don't update often enough...
Oh also, one more thing. It turns out that Jack is extremely over weight. i had been giving him the wrong treats everyday and he was kept on puppy food (at the suggestion of the pet store clerk whom I assumed knew what he was talking about) since the first time this summer i brought him to the vet he had gained about 13 lbs, even though we reduced his food and stopped giving him so many treats. The ones I was giving him were loaded with fat, and so was his food. He has elbow displasia (sp?) and is now getting cortizone shots weekly, to be reduced to monthly soon, until he reaches 18 months (6 months from now) he seems to be getting better already, but I am unable to take him for walks which def doesn't help the weight issue... soon I hope, I miss jogging with him! So anyway, because of his elbow problem, I won't be able to bring him to Ottawa for a bit cause he needs to heal before he can play with Deuce & Kaylee, and the dogs at the park... A visit will take place soon though, I may come with my sis & darren who are going near the end of this month for a concert... but it will be without Jack if I do... the thought of travelling there without him actually makes me really sad :( ... so anyway we'll see what the vet says.
Wow, seriously another novel... Lamma I hope Kylie hasn't gotten into too much trouble LOL
