Yesterday I met up with my Grandma at her local shopping mall, for an outing. Since my Aunt moved away, Grandma doesn't really have anyone to go shopping with, so she just tends to watch to much T.V. all day ( Read more... )

 I am. Doing some major slacking at work right now. *sigh* I'm just not terribly motivated at the moment-It's Friday, and tomorrow I'm heading to the Okanagan for a week ( Read more... )

I had THREE days off in a row woot,woot! We had houseguests for most of the weekend. Harlen's friend Matty came down for some awesome bike riding. Our guests were on their way to Hawaii on Sunday, leaving from the Bellingham airport, which is only 20 minutes from our house, so it made sense for us to play host and the guys can have an EPIC ride ( Read more... )

After the piss off at H and R block I bussed out to visit my grandparents. It was my grandma's 81st(!) B-day on the 20th, so I wanted to give her B-day hugs. I brought her a purty cyclamen flower to jazz up the joint.

AAAAHHHH! I have a WEEK left to finish!!
Sadly I did not accomplish as much as I'd have liked  to on the weekend. :(  I got the roughout done for G-pa's First Aid Station And Bar print and started on my Aunt and Uncle's Wake Up And Smell The Coffee roughout. But I just have a little left to do on Harlen's print, then I can start laying down some ( Read more... )

My G-ma had a heart attack Monday night. My Mum and Da called me last night to let me know. I was wondering why they were calling just as I got off work (they usually call on weekends when I'm off) then I KNEW that something was up. We were on our way to grocery store so they had me call then when I got home. As I chopped veggies we made small talk ( Read more... )

Harlen probably gets the van back tomorrow. BUT because it's registered as a business vehicle he has to pay the HST on the repairs up front. :( Which is supposed to be somewhere in the area of $800. BOO ( Read more... )

My weekend was generally uneventful. I manged to get some painting done for my x-mas gift projects. I'm making a sassy little sign for my Grandma. It says IF YOU CAN'T STAND THE HEAT get out of the kitchen. I'ts very her. :)
Harlen had hockey on Saturday, so he usually stays out kinda late, plus I think they were catching the UFC at the upstairs ( Read more... )

We are out of the woods-still standing at the edge of the meadow- But we can pay rent!!! Hurrahs!
We are sooo lucky that Rhonda was able and willing to lend a hand. The holidays are going to be tight, because we are paying her back ASAP, but still do-able. I am handpainting "prints" onto artboards for all my family. And I'm making some for our house ( Read more... )
