Hallowe'en

Only a couple days til Hallowe'en and I am frantically trying to figure out a costume. I have it narrowed down to a few. Hopefully I can think of something awesome! Have to wear it to work and to a party so it has to "adjustable"...ahem... Partywear and workwear are not quite the same thing...


And so, today, this is...

I Love The New Templates!

I decided I would try my hand at this again. Especially since I love the new templates that allow you to use your own photos!

I wonder if anyone bothers to check this old blog ever? Can't blame you if you don't, however.

You'd think that the longer we are out here the easier it would become... Nope, not so much! I seem to get more and more homesick everyday.

Now that I am done fiddling with this I think 3:16am is a good time to turn out the light and say "Good Night Moon".

Victoria, British Columbia

Well it is been a very long time since I've updated my blog! A lot has happened since then! We are now living in Victoria, British Columbia, loving the weather, happy to be with the Coopers and the Parises (friends who were also posted out of Halifax to Victoria), and missing the friends and family we left behind. It was a hard move as my sister Linda passed away 3 days before we left for our Cross Canada Adventure. I had a very difficult Fall, dealing with loss and grief. Went to a grief counselor, who helped a lot. I am not as sad as I was, but still not "happy". However, much better than I was!

Since we've been here we have seen a fair bit of the scenery. I worked over Christmas at Cotton Ginny (go figure!). I finally, after 6 months!, found a doctor. Had some blood work done, found out my thyroid is VERY low. (Levels are not supposed to be over 5.5 - mine was 93!) He said that also can affect my moods, so hopefully once they get my levels regulated I will no longer feel so crappy. He also said that it affects how I feel physically too, so that explains why I just want to stay in bed!

Al and I have started going to Aquacize Monday - Thursday nights. We are having fun. Angela and Chris go as well. I have lost 10 pounds. Hopefully will loose more, again, when my thyroid gets regulated.

Well speaking of the pool, it is time for me to get ready to go!
