I Live For Change!

Lack of posting. I know. Terrible. So many times I have started to write and NOTHING comes! I have a few things I would like to post about sometime, but to sit down and write them.


ANYWAYS, to the interesting stuff. Sunday we were supposed to have our last soccer game of the year. I was SO pumped for it. But because it was rainy and the field was pretty wet, it was cancelled. This was at about 1:45. At 1:47 I decided it would be fun to drive to the city and get my lip pierced! So I called Soul Survivor and what do you know, they were open till 8 and had lots of appointment left! So Eric, Kelly Ann and I went for a quick ride to the city, and voila:

It did not even hurt! It still hasn't really hurt. It is sore, but not really painful . I am so suprised. I expected way more pain than this! I love it so much though! (Kelly Ann has had her's for a month already. So no, I didn't take her behind her parents back! :) )

Afterwards we went to Carlos & Murphy's in Osborne, a mexican restaurant. It was delish! They had Chili & Lime Franks Red Hot sauce there! SO YUMMY! We were going to go to a movie, but were were about 1/2 hours late to all of them. So we went home and watched one. It was a great day! I love doing sponteneous things like that!

Soccer Dog

Sitting outside with Finn on a gorgeous day watching soccer. That's what I am doing right now and I love it! We have been trying to take him to as many games as we can. He really needs the socializing and training. I would much rather bring one of the other dogs that I know will behave, but hopefully one day he will too! Today he is much being much better than he has ever been yet, so that is a good sign!

Eric and I have been pretty busy with soccer lately! I have been having so much fun playing it this year! I just wish I was better. I went to Erics midget tournament last weekend, and my peewee tournament was this last weekend. Coaching as been fun this year. I love my team, they are all such good kids! I am so glad to have a job where I am done at two, so I can coach!

A Farmer's Wife

I love a warm, sunny day hanging outside at the farm. I really can't explain why. There is just something about being on a farm yard. I just love being there, doing things. It is just not the same doing them here at home. I am quite happy to be married to a man, who not only is smart and handsome, but also want to be a farmer! YAY! My dream! I am really looking forward to the days when we have a house closer to the farm, and I get to stay home and take care of kids! I can't wait for more warm, sunny farm days!

Sickness...

It's amazing how fast a body can go from relatively healthy to sickness. Yesterday morning I woke up feeling fine, felt great all day at work, and even good into the evening. Later on in the evening I started to get a headache, at around 8:30-9. I thought it was just cause I was tired. A couple hours later at around 1030 I had a little bit of sinus pain and mentioned to Eric I think I might be getting sick. At around 11, I had a pulsing headache, stuffy nose, sinus pain and my body was so tired I felt like I had just run the Boston Marathon. All in HALF AN HOUR!! Now today, all I want to do is sleep. I hate being sick. Especially on beautiful days like today. Sleep is just not an option.

One More....

So I told myself I would not add to the list once I clicked "Publish Post" cause then it would grow each time I looked at it. I have thought of so many more already! But this is one of the best. Can't believe I forgot it.
35. He laughs with me. I am so happy to have someone with a similar sense of humour, that even manages to genuinely laugh at my jokes. I am pretty sure he makes me laugh everyday. I love our inside jokes, and there is alot of them! I love to laugh!

Hello! :)

I know, I know. What is the point of having a blog if I never write on it! I have been meaning to write this post for a while now, but never got around to it. So many things have been going on, they are hard to keep up with. And I like to give you something interesting to read. But for now, just a life update...

Lately my life is been busy. But it is hard to say lately, cause it has been over a year now. And there is NO end in sight! i just keep adding things on to the to do list, keep agreeing to commitments. I must like it! As for what I have been keeping busy with:
  1. Working 20 hours a week at the farm
  2. Working 8 hours a week at Arborg Vet Hospital
  3. Coaching Pee-Wee Soccer
  4. Playing Adult Soccer
  5. Youth
  6. Riding my horse
  7. Taking care of my animals
  8. Learning piano
  9. Knitting
  10. Sewing a dress
  11. Trying to organize the house
And all of those things I love! I have never been happier, but I am also choosing to be happier. I am trying to be content with what I have, but somedays it is SO HARD when I think of all the things wrong, mostly with my house.

I love learning piano. I love the challenge. I love when I go from frustrated over how to play a song to playing to smoothly! So rewarding!!

I am so glad to have a horse to ride. I have been riding Chai, my newest addition. He is a 15 year old Quarter Horse I saved from the meat market, and he is GREAT! He has a good head on his shoulders, he just needs some time invested in him! The other one, Zaiyah, is going to training whenever Kathleen gets back from Wyoming!

I am ALMOST done knitting my baby blanket. This is the one I have been knitting for over 4 years, but I unraveled it and restarted it at Christmas time. Done in 6 months? Not bad!

I am REALLY loving playing soccer, it is so nice to be on that field again. I just love soccer. We are a soccer family for sure. I like it better than hockey....

Youth is winding down. I had a blast this year. I love being part of Youth and I never want to give it up! Abundant Springs was great! We had a great turn out there and I think the youth had a really great time. We played an awesome game on Sunday. Basically the kids had to run around to station and answer a bible trivia question. If they got it right, they got a stamp and moved on. If they got it wrong, they had to do the challenge at that station! It really made them search their bible to find the answers!

This summer is looking crazy busy for me already. I do not have a job this summer. The first four weeks are open, but I can fill them going to camp. The fifth week the youth are going up north to a bible camp to staff it. The 6th and 7th week Eric and I are heading off on a road trip to Montreal and Quebec City and Toronto. I have a Partylite conference in Quebec city for 3 days and the rest of the time we will be tourists! Then the last week of summer it is back to work! I am going to be working back at Gimli Vet Services in the fall, 3-4 days a week. I am excited to go back actually. Because I will be gone for the whole summer, I am not sure if I want to use the first 4 weeks to go to camp. I think I will go for 2 weeks for sure. But I would have NO time with my animals this summer if I did that, and I would never get to ride my horses. I don't want to be selfish, but I don't want my animals to be ignored either. If I could go home a couple times a week, or even sleep at home, I might go for the whole time. I just love decisions!
