Well Well....A Weekend Happened..

Friday:
Started out with me waking up at 5:45 am taking a shower, washing my hair..putting on makeup than blow drying my hair...then realizing my head hurt too much and I shouldn't go to school... So after Kyle left for work I looked to see when Buses left for Niagara Falls and after calling mom, hoped on the soonest one and headed down there early. I didn't want to be home all day alone in pain! And I didn't feel like waiting alone all day for Kyle to come home and Then going to the Falls. (We had planned to go Friday night all week, sick or not sick!)

Friday Afternoon:

The beginnings of rearranging furniture and organization. My mom had been on a roll this past week so we took it to another level by organizing the closet in the spare bedroom...which lead to taking out Christmas decorations, so we used some to make the guest bedroom pretty in anticipation for Heidi's visit in a couple of weeks. We then took a load of garbage bags and junk to the trash bin behind the church...Spaghetti and meatballs followed by a movie ("The Box", which was really wacky and not worth seeing!) and a night of relaxation followed.

Saturday Morning, very early!:

Kyle and I had to leave around 7:30 to go to the states because Wal-Mart was having a sale on Lap tops and since my dad has been in the recovery mode he has needed one and he wants to start a blog like me ( the best blogger in the family!) Anyway, so we went across...and people had been there since 6:00 am so the computer we went for was sold out but we got another great one, even better for a little more so it worked out. We then proceeded to the outlet mall where we parked at the back of the lot, took the computer out of the box, Kyle programmed it, put a new desk top pic on it...we threw away the box and packaging and stuck in my purse. (hence no duty) After that, we went on a hunt for the remanding gifts to send to Trinidad. A couple hours later with a break at Apple Bees ( we got a tiny burger and fajita and spinach dip platter...) We were ready to head back to Canada..

Saturday Afternoon...and evening:

We got back around 1:30pm and it was rearrange and decorating time. We started thinking about what we wanted to do. We knew the basement needed a major face lift, it looked so crammed and no one wanted to be down there. SO we decided to move the honking hutch upstairs and the smaller T.V unit that was upstairs...downstairs... SO very very quietly we started moving the big hutch up the stairs trying to do it without my dad hearing even though he did....He was in disapproval but with Kyles reluctant help and after my back spazzing out we got the units moved.(Kyle had to cut a hole in the back of the Hutch with a saw because the T.V was massive!) But anyways, after all that sweat and dad's disbelief we got it done and in the evening we went to Wal-Mart to get the finishing touches, and finally finished it all up. There is still a few things that need crafting but things are looking amazing!

Sunday morning:

Church time, an amazing baptism tank filled with boiling water contributed from Andrew and Kyle the night before taking pots and pots of water over hundreds of trips to and from the Kitchen and the Sanctuary. The service on Sunday was awesome though. Rochell's parents were there and we chatted for a bit but after that we headed home, ordered Swiss Chalet on the way and watched Survivor.

Sunday Night: After finishing Grey's Anatomy and watching some shows I taped on T.V I am now heading off to Andrea's place to talk Baby Shower stuff...It's 8:30 now...I will post this with pics when I get back later!

Okay! So It's Monday morning...obviously I'm back from Andrea's place...we had an awesome time coming up with ideas for the shower.. I was there until almost 11:00! But the planning paid off... I was up until Midnight last night watching the first episode of the first season of "True Blood" My sister, Heidi suggested it to me and I have to say I really liked it, it was a bit crazy but I think I'm going to watch more. Right now I am at school, my class starts in an hour...I have a feeling this week is going to be a hectic one. I have a lot of work I need to get done...

I am looking forward to tonight though...We bought these packages of shredded BBQ flavoured pork from the states, (It's cooler then the packs in Canada! It looks like a homemade recipe!) And we're going to have that with fresh buns and pasta salad for dinner tonight and watch last weeks "Biggest Loser"... SO that will be a lot of fun...and probably hit the gym..which is much needed because no matter what I try I feel like I just can't get it together and lose weight, I keep gaining!

I also want to get my Christmas decorations up this week and we have to ship our honking huge package that is ridiculously stuffed with too many gifts to Trinidad by the weekend so it gets there in time.. Anyways! enough rambling on, I need to look at my agenda and figure out what assignments I need to finish by the weekend. I will talk again sometime soon!

The Story of a Prince and a Girl who Dreamed of finding Her Prince.

Once upon a time there was a young woman named Ruby; she lived in a far way kingdom where only the stars in the sky could light the way. The kingdom was tall and made of stone. Inside, it had all of the finest linens and tapestries with winding stair cases, golden mirrors and exotic flowers that stretched the kingdom’s stone walls. The kingdom was surrounded by a large creek bed and had a large wooden draw bridge outside the tall black iron front gates. Beyond the kingdom were many forests, pastures, rivers and hills.

The young woman lived in the kingdom with only her two servants Nigel and Jasmine. They had been with Ruby ever since her mother gave birth to her and have cared for her and loved her since the great royal war that took her family tragically away from her. Years had past since then and Ruby was a young woman now. Since the great royal war she had not seen another person beside her servants. The lands had been deserted as other kingdoms were destroyed and abandoned. No one knew this kingdom existed. It stood in a far off place that only one deserted over grown pathway in the forest would lead to.

Ruby spent her childhood growing up playing with all the animals in the forest, she had names for all of them and would spend her days dancing in the pastures and walking along the creek bed throwing stones into the water. She was content those days as she lived free and enjoyed every tree, every stone, and every pathway near the kingdom. She loved her home but she missed her family and many times she felt alone.

As Ruby grew older she began to stop playing in the pastures and instead she spent her days walking along the creek bed dreaming of finding love and not being alone anymore. Every night outside her balcony she would spend time looking out into the stars and making wishes that one day soon a wonderful man would find the unmarked path in the forest that would lead him to her kingdom.

Nigel and Jasmine were very old now; Ruby took time to care for them and tended to their needs. She would gather food from the garden and make them food to eat and get them blankets to make sure they were comfortable when it was cold. She was not sure how much longer they would live but one thing she knew was how much she admired they’re love for one another and she hold that in her heart for as long as she lived.

It was a warm fall evening; the leaves from the trees were lightly falling as the sun began to set. Ruby was standing on her balcony in her long white silk night gown. As the dark sky began to shine, a light breeze bustled against her gown and her long brown hair blew lightly in the wind. She stood with her hands on the balcony ledge and wished to the stars like she had so many nights before singing” Star light Star bright bring my prince home to me tonight” She stared up into the dark blue sky and began to talk more to the shinning stars.

Just as she was looking up into the sky, talking to the stars a man was following the pathway from the forest that leads to Ruby’s kingdom. He was beginning to approach the edge of the pathway he had began journeying on earlier that day and was about to step on to a beautiful white shiny stoned pebble walk way that would lead up to a draw bridge and to Ruby’s kingdom.

The young man had been travelling for months only eating what he could find along the pathway. Henry was a prince from the golden city of Persia. He was on an expedition when he was captured by rivals and taken to a far away land where he was imprisoned in a place he did not know. Months ago after many nights planning Henry escaped while the guards were sleeping. He thought he would be able to journey home by recognizing land marks but once he had fled the guards he realized that he was further from home then he ever imagined and much to his dismay he did not recognize any of his surroundings. He had been following the sun in hopes of finding his way home. Each day he walked further hoping that one day the pathway would lead him to his family.

Earlier that day Henry had been walking though the forest with large green bushes and fruitful trees around him when he saw a small unmarked pathway that was ragged and old. There were no fruit trees, only old tall trees and an old pebble pathway that seemed run down and abandoned.

He was going to continue to walk on the pathway he had been but something caught his eye as he walked past this abandoned trail. Henry saw a small red ruby attached to a ring lying in between some wet leaves. The sun was shining on it and it glistened and shinned at him. He bent down and lifted the leaves around it away and dusted the ring off and looked at. The ring was prestigious and fit for a princess. He thought about continuing on the main pathway road through the forest but he was drawn down this unmarked pathway. He wondered if this ruby red ring belonged to someone. He put the ring in his pocket and began to walk along the jagged unmarked pathway. He noticed that there were no markings along this pathway so it appeared that no one had walked this pathway for many years.

To Be Continued…
