It's a new dawn...

Melancholy beware...optimism has returned. Sad days have gone by and I am once again relishing in the wonderment that is happiness. Things certainly have taken a turn for the better. I have a wonderful family and I love each and every one of them...I do...they make me incredibly happy and I am truly following my bliss...That's all I have to say for now...I'm happy...really, really happy...Ciao for now my bellas...xoxoxo

Melancholy...

Everybody is entitled to an off day. Today seems to be mine. There is about 5 feet of freshly fallen snow just outside my door...there's no end to the negative commentary about Mother Nature and her endless destructive rampage against us Northerners... I'm sitting here in my living room trying to enjoy the last hours of my day off, but I feel tired, sad, frustrated and incredibly lonely. I'll be working straight through for the next 7 days...non-stop...I'm not feeling well, and I miss my guy terribly. The snow is not only inundating every single inch of the city, but is hogging all my man's time. I haven't spent any time alone with him in days...and I miss him...I miss him terribly...I know everybody's used to me being happy go lucky and cheerful all the time...but I'm down today...it happens...thankfully, not often...Ciao bellas...send good vibes my way will ya! xo

My bucket list...

Hey everybody...well, I received a note on facebook called the bucket list...and as I'm sure you're all aware, a bucket list is a list of things you'd like to do or accomplish before you "kick the bucket"...so, I filled out the questionnaire on facebook but it really got me thinking about what it is I truly want to accomplish during my limited time here on earth...so I've started putting together my proverbial "bucket list"...here it is, in no particular order...and certainly not anywhere near finished...

1) weigh between 130 and 150
2) write a book
3) marry the man of my dreams
4) travel to europe
5) go on a caribbean cruise
6) run in an international marathon for Team Diabetes
7) learn to play guitar
8) learn a new language
9) buy a house
10) save money for retirement
11) learn more about astronomy and astrology
12) witness a miracle
13) witness the birth of a baby (yes, I've given birth but was too busy giving birth to watch..LOL)
14) do something that will inspire others
15) buy a SUV
16) make an art quilt
17) appear in a play
18) see a play on Broadway
19) go white water rafting
20) learn to fly a helicopter
21) attend mardi gras in New Orleans
22) visit the world's greatest wonders
23) visit the Maritime Provinces...I've seen all other provinces starting with Quebec going all the way to BC...
24) visit all 50 states

Okay, that's what I've come up with for now...I'm sure I'll be adding to the list as I think of more things...but for now, this will be sufficient...how many of these would you like to do???
Ciao for now my pretties...I'm off to enjoy my day off...:o)

An evening with Ron James...

Well people, I just got back from seeing Ron James live at the Fraser Auditorium...and let me tell ya...that guy is friggin hilarious...I haven't laughed so much in a long time...I thought I had a great time at the bowling extravaganza last night, but this was right up there too...lol...Although, I must admit I was taken by surprise by the amount of my co-workers I encountered at the show...I didn't expect to see so many of them...ah well, it was all good clean fun and I was sitting beside Rick Bartolucci...so, the political jokes were that much funnier...LOL...boy did he shuffle in his seat quite often...lol...too funny! Anyway, I had a great time...and want to thank Yves for coming with me as a last minute date...love ya bud! Anyway, that's it for now, I must get ready to slumber...my bed awaits...night night!

A bowling I will go...

Okay people...tonight is finally the night...the night of the long anticipated...rarely duplicated...big gay (with one straight chick) bowling extravaganza...Can't wait...I'm gonna kick some ass...lol...okay, maybe not...I kind of suck at bowling...but I do love it immensely...I might have gotten a bit better with help from my mother's Wii...lol...God I hope so...Humiliation better not be in the cards! Please God let me be the high scorer for once...let me put my friends to shame...let them bow and say my name...LOL!! Okay, okay, let me at least not be the lowest gal on the totem pole and we'll call it even! We're even going out to Montana's where according to my friend Dominic there are many many HOT waiters...Oh my! lol...hope the food's as good as the view! lol...Ah well, I guess I'll soon find out...but first I must go to work and slave for 8 hours...perhaps see my guy and pinch his hot buns...lol...and then, and only then will I be ready to face the big gay bowling extravaganza that is ahead of me...wish me luck...hi ho hi ho, a bowling I will go....

Hacker...who art thou?

Well well well...it seems somebody out there in cyber space is having one heck of a good time hacking my facebook account...changing my status...my personal information...the lot...I must say I'm rather surprised they would pick on me...I mean, I'm not that interesting...I'm not famous, or rich, or popular...but apparently I'm special enough to be messed with. Well, I just want to let you know, whoever you are, that you haven't gotten the best of me...my info's been changed and I've already moved on as I'm sure you've already found your next victim of cyber crime. I'm just intensely disappointed in your behaviour...though I realize that you must be an immature, selfish, rather stupid and small minded person, I do feel bad that you have nothing better to do with your time than to pick on somebody who's actually a very kind, generous, loving person who would not hurt another person if she were paid to do so... I forgive you, whoever you are. I hope you can forgive yourself and move on. Que sera sera...

Frustration part deux...

I just wanted to take a moment to apologize to somebody special who made an enormous effort to try to make my Valentine's Day extra special...I know I previous eluded to the fact that the bulk of the day sucked...but alas there was a bright spot...Thank you for the beautiful lily...the delectable chocolate...the dinner...your heart...you are a truly remarkable person... Thank you...and Happy Valentine's day...
