So! It's a new year! And I don't really have a lot to update on. But I gotta start making an effort to start blogging again. I don't know what happened there. But I just up and quit and I was doing so well! Oh well.. It's just.. I'm pretty sure a few things have happened since the last time I wrote but I can't really remember.
Christmas..
It was Christmas in Craik this year. All in all it was a pretty good time. A little sad because of the loss of Blake's aunt Cindy earlier this year. But other than that we had a really good time. Blake bought me 2 pairs of Puma shoes and a TNA hoodie for Christmas. It would have been super awesome if the metal tag was off and the shoes fit but we got it figured out eventually. Blake's parents gave us a serving tray, serving utensils, a cook book ( hint hint right?), and a fake tree (mostly for Abby).
We also visited Blake's grandma in Saskatoon. A very very busy Christmas needless to say.
We also bought a huge tv during Boxing Week at Best Buy. We had to buy a BluRay player and 9 on BluRay too. Yay.
New Years...
We went to our friend Tyler's place and we had a few drinks. I didn't but Blake did. I was DD as usual. :D It was nice to see everyone again though because we don't get to see a lot of anyone when we come up to Edmonton now. We just see our family and don't have time for anything else.
Anyways.. we did my family Christmas New Years Day. I got awesome movies from my siblings, Up, Coraline, Fight Club, and Monsters Vs. Aliens. I also got a cute pink robe to match my many pigs. :D and a super cute green shirt from Katie the fashionista (because I apparently don't have style), a wicked awesome Starbucks Coffee mug that I use EVERYDAY! from my lovely sister Erin who works there. Money from my parents so that I can save up to buy my Dyson vacuum cleaner, because I want one soo very badly. Pictionary and a Taylor Swft CD from my Nana and Papa. To which I recieved the same Taylor Swift CD from my sisters bf Tobin (and that I still have to exchange for something else... don't know what but maybe something awesome will come out that I can get),and Pride and Prejudice and Sea Monsters from Devan. So that was a good time.
Work...
Has been good but not so busy. Which is nice and sucks at the same time. Everyone was telling me it slows down in January, but I didn't realize how much! I think though that since it's warm people aren't really caring about their fireplaces and whatnot, since there was only the those few freezing weeks in December. Also, January has been shaping up to be nice and warm, so gotta love that!
Well... I guess I've been losing weight. I don't know how, since I haven't really changed too much besides eating healthier but I guess that's all it takes. And I really love hearing that too.
This past weekend, Blake and I finally got to watch Watchmen. We started watching over the holidays but never got to watch the whole thing. Very good movie! and Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs. I loved it! So funny! I'm considering purchasing it as well. It appears though that I will have a ton of cartoon movies in my movie collection but that's kinda how I like it. They look awesome on our tv too, so we all win! I also bought Star Trek this week on BluRay. Wow! Does it ever look awesome! Really glad that I have that in my collection as well. Wicked! Hehe
Anyways. Gotta work now.
Later Days!

:O:O:O I loved Cloudy with a Chance!! I'm buying it online. Also have you seen Julie&Julia yet?? It is also really good. I should update my blog but since I have so much tv to watch I never end up doing it. Maybe tonight when Tobin is at work I'll get a chance.
ReplyDeleteI went and saw it in theatres and Blake bought it for me when it came out. :D
ReplyDeleteYou should update. It's sad that we haven't.
For who? The only one that reads mine is you. lol
ReplyDeletealright, so i commented once yesterday. but blogger ate my comment, so i'm going to attempt to re-create it before i update my blog.
ReplyDeletei remember mentioning that you mashed two book titles into one, so i asked which you got: "pride and prejudice and zombies" or, "sense and sensibility and sea monsters?" i love them both though, so either is awesome!
seems like you had a great holiday, but your description has much more detail then mine. i had to go the bullet point route, or people would have fallen asleep reading the ridiculous amount of awesome i described. haha.
alsoooo, my mom and i are planning to go see "the lovely bones" probably a week or two after it's released, if you'd like to come with? we are very excited about it!
but have fun in deadmonton (haha) this weekend, and i am looking forward to our dinner and games night on the 23rd!
(ps. your blog officially hates me. no matter where i access it from, it signs me out of blogger and then noms my comment when i try to post it - and sign in. grrr.)
it was the sea monsters one. i probably put pride and prejudice because i love that book on it's own and i'm also a little bit crazy!
ReplyDeletealso! i would love to go and see lovely bones with you. thing is... blake wants to see it too. didn't i tell ya the book is fantastical!
and... i'm not going to "deadmonton" this weekend anymore. blake has waay to much work to do for us to even think about leavin the city.
:( which is unfortunate because my little brother birthday was tuesday so.. i guess he's getting emailed money instead. :P
i am starting to get annoyed with blogger as well for the very same reason. i wish there was better site. but this one is so much easier to use then other ones. :( but ... i wouldn't switch anyways because i've got all these entries.. i couldn't leave it behind.
let me know if you plan to go the next weekend or not, cause we can do the dinner/games night this weekend if you want.
ReplyDeletegotta love how once i complain about blogger it now is keeping me signed in and letting me comment. you like the abuse blogger?
