It Must Be Friday


When I got home from work, Shayne and I did the usual Friday mojo and started talking about our day. Then he said something really odd to me. He said that he was confused as to what leather jacket was mine and which was his. I proceeded to open the closet and explain to him whose was whose. Then he said to me, don't you see anything different here? I couldn't believe it, there was some flowers there for me and I did not even notice it! It must have been a long week for me not to notice flowers! These flowers can go outside so I think I will put them out this weekend. Thanks Shayne, it is a great feeling to know that I am appreciated!

OMG, I Didn't Just Do That.......



On Thursday May 7th my work had a "working session" at Gateway Bowling with pizza and pop. The Auto Tech guys joined us as well as my bosses boss. I spent alot of time telling everyone how bad I was at bowling so that noone would be shocked when they saw a 60 score. My manager Lynn decided who was going to be on what team and entered all of our names in the system. My team included myself, our team lead Sherry and our intern Trevor. The team next to me was my Manager, and 2 Auto Tech guys. So it came time to start bowling and I was really nervous because I really don't know these people all that well. My manager and I were the first to bowl so she asked me to bowl first. So I stood there and concentrated really hard and thought to myself, please don't make a fool of yourself. So I posed and then threw the ball..........the ball.....bounced off the center part and then into Lynns lane!! How embarrassing...I threw the ball into the wrong lane! I did let her throw one in my lane. I was sooo embarrassed, but it did give everyone a laugh and it broke the ice a little! Then I ended up looking like a liar because I got 4 strikes and 1 spare in that game. It was a really fun time and great to see everyone enjoying themselves.

Wii Fit

On Wednesday May 6 I went to Spruce Grove for my Nephew Austins Confirmation rehersal. We had a great supper that Angie made which was turkey hash, gravy, buns and fruit salad for desert. Austin and I met his Uncle Marek at the church and we learned what was expected of us during the ceremony. Things have changed alot since my confirmation, but it is going to be very nice. Then after the rehearsal I hooked the Wii upstairs so that the whole family could play. They had Wii fit and I'll tell you that we all had a great time. That game is so neat and I found out that my "Wii age" is 34. I think that I should practice a little more, I don't need any more years added!

Not Good!



On Saturday May 2 we decided to try Papa Murphy's pizza. Shayne ended up getting a free pizza because he said "that he forgot his coupon at home". So the guy convinced him to buy this club salad. The pizza was really good, but not as good as Royal Pizza.That night we had a few bites of the salad, but we decided to save it for the next day. So on Sunday for lunch I ate most of it and then....
I saw this........OMG how many bugs did I actually eat?

The Not Fun Part of Spring

This stain that we use wears off really quickly and every year we have to restain. I hate painting, but the sooner I paint, the sooner I can bring out the patio furniture. So painting was my goal today. Its interesting because I love putting all the summer stuff out, but we hardly use it! The only time we use it is when we have fires.

Time for a Little Change

Now that spring is here, I wanted to change my hair a little. Nothing to dramatic, but just some foils and a cut. I forgot the camera at home, so Shayne used his phone camera. I am really happy with the result and I even Shayne said that it made me look younger!

Fairmount Marchuk House

Last year when we went to the mountains we stayed at the Fairmont Lake Louise. It was so luxurious and the bedding was out of this world. The sheets were Egyptian Cotton and the duvet was just amazing. We thought that it would be great to sleep like that every night. So we started with the Egyptian Cotton sheets which are awesome. Then Darlene bought us a perfect duvet for our birthday. We also got some money from Michelle and Derek to buy the Duvet set. It took awhile for us to find "the perfect" duvet set, but once we did...... OH MY GOSH IS THIS BED EVER THE MOST COMFORTABLE BED I HAVE EVER SLEPT IN! It was exactly like the fairmont! Then we put that pillow spray from Bath and Body works and it is like a little piece of heaven! So thank you Darlene, Derek and Michelle for giving us the gift amazing sleeps.
