Well....back in my Home-town...and I am happy to be here!! Guess big-city living (plus ridiculous rental costs) are not for me... Currently working full-time, still no 'man' on the radar... but I guess one must look if one wants to find *grin* Other than that, things are going well...the ex is posing some issues financially right now, but hopefully they will be ratified by the end of this month...we shall see. Looking forwards to going to "Quad-Wars" this August... now I am familiar with what goes on there, I am better prepared to "Par-tay" I am sure it'll be a blast!! ^_^
ok... update.... currently working at Safeway here in the City till I move out on April 25th. Back to the old stomping grounds (as such) Looking forwards to seeing all my friends again... and hopefully finding full-time employment or close to it near where I will be living..but we shall see. Other than that... not really anything new to talk about...later.
Changes.... didn't get my Class 3... so that is gonna wait till Spring....currently working at a sheet metal plant... it's okay...but for the rate of pay,I could go work at Tim Horton's and get the same hourly rate....but time will tell. 2 more months in this apartment then the lease is up... and henceforth the rent goes up as well... funny? No.. not at all... normal for all the money-grubbin' property owners out there...We don't all make 25 bux an hour, guys!! Sheesh!! Time for the Government to get some guts and cap the Rent out there...1350 a month for an apartment is stupid, especially when the building is almost 30 plus years old!!
How do you feel about your birthday? Do you look forward to it and remind all your friends, or do you dread it and try to keep it a secret?
Well...being born on Christmas Eve..I do not need to remind anyone about my birthday....unlike most girls, when I turned 40 it wasn't a big,traumatic thing. As far as I was concerned it was just another b-day... no biggie! You are only as old as you feel...some days I am 12, others I am older...lol
Well,hello out there in 'Vox-land'! Thought I would finally submit a post, it's been awhile. Christmas was good this year, I hope everyone had a good one!! Now, changes will be coming up here for me...I am changing things up,shaking the foundations of my Life...(and I will admit I am a little bit scared , but Hell...change is good, right??)
I wil be leaving my current retail job (which only wants to give me 16 hours a week,phooey!) and am embarking on a job in the Oilfield and Petroleum Industry. Doing what, you ask? Driving a 5 ton water truck...eek!! I take my driving course from the 19th to the 26th this month, and then my H2S Alive training on the 28th... then off I go, to my new career...did I mention they're paying $250 a day??? Man, I barely make that in a week right now...I know this is a very physically demanding job, but I'm sure I am gonna do my absolute outmost to make this work...(it'll be sooo nice to actually have a 'balance' in my bank after everything is paid...)
So wish me Luck, I will try to keep this up-dated as things go along, one never knows where I'll be, however it was time for a change, and time to 'cash' in on the "Alberta-Boom" finally...Take care out there!

This was written by a friend of mine who got their 'inspiration' while outside shovelling snow off of the lot at his work... I thought I would share it with everyone out there who 'likes' our lovely weather..(of course I am being sacastic...icky winter...)
Tell me that this doesn't make you smile...lol!!
Today is Veterans Day. Is there anyone you know who has served or is serving in the military that you'd like to honor today?
My Grandfather is who I do honor today. He was at the Invasion of Normandy that fateful day, when so many of our brave lads gave their ultimate sacrifice to preserve our Freedom, Values, and Democracy. He survived to come home to my Grandmother, and my Mom...when he left she was less than one year old, when he returned she was 5 , and barely remembered him. He very rarely spoke of the War, and when I think of the atrocities he must have seen, and to be so far from his home for 5 years... it makes me feel sad. Only when Grandpa was in his 'cups' (xmas, once in a great while) he would say a little about it, like the time he released a boy whom had been taken prisoner.. the lad was 16 years old, sent into battle by the mad-man they called "Fuhrer"... My Granddad took pity on the kid, and let him go... for his mercy, he was busted down to Private from Sergeant... and reprimanded for his actions.....I applaud his actions, for showing mercy in a time where perhaps most would have seen an enemy, he simply saw a frightened youth, who didn't want to die... is that so wrong, to show mercy to an enemy? My Granddad passed away a few years ago, but I remember his compassion for friends and Family... He was my Hero... I miss you, Grandpa....
To all the Military Personnel who are out there now protecting us.....We salute you!!!!!
Walk softly,
Go gently...
there are pieces lying there..
see you...?
tread carefully..
My heart lies there,
underneath your uncaring gaze....
Still it cries out,
In misery and pain....
Still the tears fall,
moistening the dry soil of my soul...
It feels like,
My Soul is on fire....
My Heart's blood cries out,
It is still only for you ....
Walk softly,
Go gently there....
Still this Love remains,
And so it hurts me still....
To hold,
To be held...
To Kiss,
To be kissed...
To truly LOVE,
And to be Truly LOVED...
I don't want so much,
Only...........
***YOU***
