Hmmm...

It's strange to try and make up your mind about something. Some people have no problem. They decide what it is that they want or want to do and then stick with it until the end. Other people (more like myself), have difficulties deciding what to eat for breakfast, if they should attend one school or the other, if taking a new job is the right choice, if becoming an astronaut is what they really want to do (no, I don't want to be an astronaut!).
Since my last post, I have made a major decision indeed. Aren't you all proud of me? I even did it by myself, well, with the input of others of course! That decision was to move back down to Vancouver Island and work at another job here. You see, a very unfortunate thing happened. It got too hot in Kamloops for it to be safe for the loggers to be running the machinery and thus, if they can't run, then Mr. Pagdin and I can't run lines. With that ending and my housecleaning jobs dwindling down I made the choice to come home. Of course it was all a little more complicated then that, but you get what I mean.

I've actually only been home for a week and two days, but it feels like it's been forever! I'm really happy to be with my family and enjoying seeing all the youth again while the YFC camp that they are all attending was at Riverbend this week. I had great fun with them all, visiting at Firesides, watching their skits, listening to their testimonies and just enjoying one anther's company. I've also got to catch up a lot with my pal Lindsay, and we've been making the most of the spare times she has to chat. Another great thing, I've been getting to see my Elsah! :)

Time is short and I have to work in the morning...plus I need to squeeze something called a jog in there somewhere tomorrow, so I best be off.

Smiles!

This picture is from one the skits from Westcoast trip, but I thought that Korey and Mike looked greatly fun here and that it should be shared. After all, it's not everyday that Korey wears a pink toque!

Bruises, Duck Mites, and Sunburn...

You would think I'm trying to inflict pain on myself or something :P...Within the last week or so I've managed to get a sweet sunburn on the back of my legs, as well as my shoulders. Then I went swimming in the lake and got duck mites. Itch, Itch, Itch! But before all that I dropped a pallet on my legs and got two sweet bruises. *Scratch itchy spot*

All in all it's a fantastic week though :). I got to work in the bush on Tuesday and Wednesday. It was so hot on Wednesday that we were forced (uh huh) to take a break at McDonald's to cool down...the air conditioner is such a nice feature don't you think? *Adjust body so that sunburn doesn't touch the chair*
I'm very trilled that it's the weekend...although I'm not sure what I'll be doing. There is talk around here of fishing and swimming. Maybe even camping...but we'll have to see on that one. Kelsey and Brandon got home from the Island yesterday and now there's food in the house :)!!! Yay! Oh, and of course I'm happy to have them home too!

Alright so if this isn't too random for you then hopefully you enjoyed it. I must run and find something for my itches...I'm going crazy!!
