12:42 pm	Finally. . an update! Hey everyone.. here is an update you've all been asking for!! I moved to a new location within Alberta. It is about $75 a month cheaper then my previous place.. however the different is it is all inclusive. So I was paying about $950 in bills before just to live and now it is $650.  I have bought a truck, a black Chevy S10 pick up =) It is my baby.. I have 2 kitties now, Lupin and Rohan. I quit my dangerous job at the lumber yard and am now working for the Government of Alberta, in there Alberta Alcohol and Drug Abuse Commission's Finance Department.. an acronym is AADAC. The pay was a BIG part of this decision and now I get to sit on my bum 99% of the day for $20./hour!! Anyways.. that is all for now I will write more when I have time!! ta ta (Comment on this)

5:59 am	Change of Plans Okay, so I have had a little change of plans with me returning home. Here is why. I quit my job, and packed up all my stuff. Everything was a go and I was ready to come home. My friend and boss, Tony, asked me to come over to his place to visit so I did. Little did I know I'd have some people waiting for me, they took my keys and my cellphone. I was tormented for quite some time. They told me exactly why I was not allowed to leave. Tony also told me that he would be making me a builder soon. Which they make about $30 an hour so you see my dilemma! My new plan, is to stay here. Pay off my debt in full to Mom, and my credit card, overdraft as well as my truck. Once they are all paid off, save a bit of cash for myself and maybe come home. I like the idea of making $20-30 an hour. (It depends on how hard I work to reach bonus and surpass the bonus mark.) They get money for square footage, and the harder you work - the more money you will get. I'm excited to see where this goes, if I don't get to be builder then EFF them.. I will come home. Otherwise, we shall see on the money! I am so sorry I got your hopes up.. but look at it from my point. The money will be phenomenal! (Comment on this)

5:20 pm	So I have talked to my landlord and he is looking into selling the condo. $725 plus power ($30 this month) is just too much for me. On top of $100 for my internet and phone. (Long distance plan which I never use unless to call Mom) and now my increased insurance and car payments. I have decided to look for a new place. A bsmt suite or roomate with my friend Justin. Not 100% sure yet. I would love to room with him, however it would possibly lead to us dating and then breaking up in the future. Possible bad idea. That and I won't really be able to come and go as I please. wouldn't be alone like I love so much. Bah! Anyone have any ideas about groceries? I seem to not be creative enough when I go out and get them. No idea what to buy! (Comment on this)

3:38 pm	So I brought my new kitten home finally, along came his mommy too he still is weening. He is so very tiny! I'm trying not to walk around the house too much as the Mom is not sure how she feels about being in a new house with her baby. Luckily the baby is sleeping so she has time to investigate. Which she is doing, she was just sitting behind me staring at me for the longest time! She's trying to decide how she feels about me. See. That is the Mommy cat, the little one is on his carry-on sleeping. I just took a picture of him, and it is here. That is the baby, and here is another, sort of blurry tho.  And this is his 'don't wake me up to beyotch' look. (Comment on this)

6:20 pm	This is a very upset rant. Be forwarned. So I ended it with the person I was seeing. I am sick of being the opject of affection to the people at work, everyone there wants me. One of them had me, told me how amazing I was, and how perfect. That he never wants to hurt me, and that he should pull away now because he doesn't want to do that to me. Fact is, he doesn't want to get hurt again, both fresh out of bad relationships and we don't trust anyone at all. You know what, needless to say this makes me mad. Hurt. Upset, and feel more alone here then I already did. Luckily I have Eragon to keep my company. Which is my new kitten, only thing that will make me happy. Regardless I just decided that I am tired of this charade, I am unhappy here at this moment, and very alone but I am a fucking big girl and I will bloody well get thru it. I need to get established, need to make some friggin friends and get a life together out here. There is a lot of options for me, and I plan to persue them. I don't want any of you to bother me about my state of mind. Overall, I love being in a new place, I am just obviously home sick and feeling lonely. So that is my recent update, from this moment on, I am going to accept the casual contract with Scotiabank and work like crazy if I can to keep my mind off of everything. I may be even less social then I already am. Love you all and miss you terribly. (Comment on this)

2:21 pm	Promotion? Hey All, I just wanted to let you know that just 4 or 5 days after I started my new job I was promoted to the Lead Sawyer and now supervise all my other Sawyers. I don't do a whole lot of cutting anymore, except when someone is absent lol. I like it! But there is obviously a lot of stress that comes with the position! I have been working as often and as much as possible and this is why I have not been online. I have been told if I ever want to come in on Saturdays to come on in at 8am (after working 4pm - 12:30am on Friday night!) and I will get some nice overtime hours. So that is what I have started to do now which is super nice. It kind of sucks to work on the weekend, BUT I work with the Mexicans only on the weekend and they all adore me which is funny. My company could not find decent workers in Alberta so they imported Mexicans and they love to work and make the good money they are making. They work every single day because that is how much they love it! They all think I am a beautiful girl and they flirt with me all the time but it is innocent. They are the most polite men I have ever met and they are so sweet an also quite hilarious! Anyways, I am going to get some food into my stomach it is now 2:17pm my time and I have only been awake a few minutes. Even on the weekend I stick to my work week hours. I am awake all night and asleep for the morning. So Basically from 2pm - 2am and as last as 7am I am awake and from that time to 2pm I am asleep. P.s. I LOVE working the late afternoon shift. It is the best! Current Mood: happy Current Music: Leave Out All The Rest - Linkin Park (Comment on this)

2:09 am	Hello again! Nothing of interest to report. I went to see Pirates of the Carribbean 3, it was a decent movie. I have always loved this story line, its getting a little drawn out with promise of a 4th now as well. However the theatre was packed so the 4th shouldn't be a surprise, nor will it be a dissapointment either to the die hard fans. Oh speaking of which another Die Hard movie is coming out, as well as Ocean's Thirteen. Instead of run-on sentences they are making run-on movies. Go movie writers!! Anyways, it is now.... 2:08am on Sunday morning and the last time I slept was 2pm Friday afternoon when I got up for work. So I think sleep is on the agenda for little miss me! Love you all and miss you terribly! (Comment on this)

8:50 pm	Hello everyone! Sorry for my absence, unfortunately I have created myself a decent social life. It's a shame really, I am rarely home anymore and spend copious amounts of time out and about, having myself a good time! I sent out letters to the sisters this past week and plan to send out a few more to other family members. You are always more then welcome to write me as well! Just ask Mom for my home address! I started a new job, I am a carpenter of sorts. I was promoted to Supervisor in 3 days, woot go me! I like to go to the bar with a couple friends on the weekends and have a drink or two and meet lots of new people. I have made a ton of new friends and even more aquaintences. Woohoo! Too tired to write too much, will chatty later! (Comment on this)

7:46 pm	Car troubles! Looks like my car is not so pleased with me after alll! This is the 3rd time she has died on me while driving. Both times it was warm out. Caa is coming and I am going to get a mechanic to take a look. It has to be the computer. I bet it is the O2 sensor! This is so frustrating! It happened on my way to Ikea and now on my way home from an interview (I start tomorrow) woo! I love my car but come ON! Grrr. Will write with verdict. Christina (Comment on this)

9:51 pm	Laundry Well, so today marks the day I got my laundry keys finally and boy am I glad! I was able to get in 2 loads, and will need to do 2 more tomorrow as soon as I get home from work this time. I got in there this evening and no one was n there. There are 2 washers and 2 dryers. So I used a washer, thinking to do one at a time and leave the other open is a curtosy, well when I went in to get my wash out someone was using both the other dryers. So I did another load in the washer, waited for the 2 to come out of the dryer and stuffed both of mine in there. LOL. I am just waiting (one hour) for them to be finished.. which does not impress me because that will be 11pm and I am friggin exhausted now. If I go take a nap I will never wake up do I must suffer. I cannot wait to get paid this weekend.. I will be able to go and get lots of fun things for my apartment. Since now I do not need frniture I can just get, picture frames, and pictues and lamps and all sorts of fun things to make it look 'homey' and nice! I also need to get a few household items too. Like groceries for one thing.. I need to go out and get myself a variety. I never really realized how little variety of food I eat until all the same shit is in my fridge and it looks friggen empty. I need to learn to eat a little healthier.  *yawn* So.....damn..... tired....need....to......sleep. Did I mention I got a call today from a place I applied to before I moved here? I know I never applied to places that paid any smaller then $16 an hour so that perks my interest a bit. I have a sneaky feeling this one will pay $18.... anyways... time for me to go. Nothing else new to report.  Chat soon! (Comment on this)
5:57 am	So this morning I feel as thouht I have raced, full speed and smashed my entire body into a concrete wall. My wrists are swollen, my ankles and my fingers. Every single portion of my body is killing right now.  I really need to find myself a new job. This is getting to be a little ridiculous. Anyway time to get ready for work, woot friggin hoo. I am not impressed at all! Good day all. (Comment on this)
