Poor Nalla Pug :(

Our puggy is always itchy... she's seen 3 different vets over the past few months.. and they found no signs of anything and diagnosed her as having allergies. She takes her itchy pills and she's good.. except for the last few weeks poor pug wakes up and is itchy all over... rubbing her nose in us! So I went to brush her tonight.. UGH! OUR PUG HAS FLEAS!!!
*sigh*
So now I have to take her to the vet tomorrow, and get meds, shampoo, whatever, for her and kitty! Then I have to decontaminate our house!! *grumbles*
Oh well.. the joys of being a pet owner!
*lol*

Hooohooo! Don't mess with Mother Nature.. she'll GET YA!

So, I think one of the most ironic things that has happened in the last while is that Ry and I noticed the gardeners mowed our lawn for the first time this year! Then.. it snowed! LOL! I love how when people think that winter is over.. Mother Nature says.. NOPE! I'll show you what's what! :)
Anyhoo.. at least the snow didn't last and wasn't more than just a nuisance... I love snow, but there is a time and a place.
So this week was alright.. nothing too out of the ordinary. Thursday morning I woke up, after a good 8 hours or so of sleep, and felt soooooooooo sleepy. I thought maybe it was because I was having one of those mornings when I kept dreaming in between the snooze button. However, as the day wore on my fatigue just kept getting worse. I thought it was rather strange.. not even caffeine could get me out of my fog. Then I thought it was just because my iron is at a low point and wrote it off. Then Friday after work I was waiting for Ry and found it difficult to swallow, sneezing, runny nose.. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
So for the last two days I've been plagued by a cold. Albeit not a massive full blown cold.. but one of those annoying colds that keeps you nice and tired, makes it tough to swallow, and just plugs your nose enough to hurt and to keep you breathing out of your mouth which irritates your throat. Sometimes I'm not sure what's worse. I think, depending on how long this half assed cold hangs on, it is almost better to have a day or two where you're so sick all you do is sleep and drink fluids and rest. So today I treated myself like that.. I laid in bed with Ry, drank juice, popped my vitamins, watched some Gone with the Wind.. then went and stood out in the rain directing parking at a church function as a citizen's patrol rep. LOL! Go figure..
Oh well.. what can I say.. I'm a geek!
The Olympics closing ceremony was awesome! But holy! Ricky Martin?!?? OMG! LOL! Liz remember our night of frisbee at my place on Jasper? We danced and sang to Ricky *hangs head in shame* LMAO! Wow.. that seems like years ago. My life has changed so much.. I still like having a good time.. but I can't believe how things change in a matter of a few years.. Liz is a mommy and a wife.. I'm living in a different city pursuing a career in law enforcement, hardly ever drink ever, live with the most amazing man.... so different yet the same. Growed up I suppose :)
My dad, step mom and step sis were here this weekend. We did a bit of shopping, I got a gorgeous black dressy trench coat from work with my b-day money (saving the rest for lulu!!!), and we went to Brokeback Mountain. Hmmm.. I can't say I loved it and rave about it. It was okay, long, makes you think, great acting for sure! I'd say see it because it is so thought provoking.. but I dunno.. I've definately seen much better movies... but it was good. Plus Heath and Jake are hot no matter what or who they are doing! *heheh*
Anyhoo.. that's about it.. lol.. boring I know.. but if you want to know more boring stuff.. email me or call me.. OMG! IT IS ALMOST MY BIRTHDAY!!!!
and I have no plans.. for the first time in years! lol.. wow.. I really don't care I suppose!
LOL!
Toodles.. :)

Happy Day After Valentine's Day!

So yesterday was nice.. kept busy during the day b/c Ry was at work.. made him a card with pug pics and construction paper :) When he came home he gave me a beautiful bunch of tulips and some chocolates. Then we relaxed for a bit and headed out for dinner.. to the Boathouse in White Rock! It was great :) They had a special menu and I had wild greens salad, lobster/crab cake, Steak topped with Lobster thermidor stuff, and key lime pie (to go :P) It was amazing! Ry had this shrimp that was amazing.. it was spicy pan fried or something.. I dunno but it was flippin hot and tastey! Ry also ordered a bottle of Red wine.. which I drank most of (b/c he was driving) so when we got home I was a bit tippy! lol.. it was funny.. geez I NEVER drink anymore and now it's been twice in less than a week! lol.. maybe I need to take a break now :)
Anyhoo.. I hope everyone enjoyed their day/night.. whether they were with loved one, friends, or just chilling by themselves!

Trying to upload pics.. but they're not working.. I'll try later!

And just for fun...

LOL!

How could I be better?

OMG! Today our regional manager is coming to our store.. so everyone is running on empty.. well lastnight.. me and one other girl were working and I was given this impossible list of tasks.. didn't think I could do it.. BUT I DID!!!! OMG! I was waxing, helping customers, cleaning the WHOLE STORE, every piece of clothing.. It looks AMAZING! Plus we went over our sales.. plus my manager came in and said the store looked fantastic! Bruce will LOVE it!
I'm a Reitmans goddess!!!

OMG! I'm silly this morning!
But I must go.. clean up before my Crime Prevention meeting.. zip off to a child safety meeting, and come home for the strata meeting! *phew* Whoever thought school was tough should try volunteering :P

*btw.. don't take me seriously.. I'm not a goddess.. just a cog in the wheel that is the Reitmans team.. LMAO!*

On A Lighter Note

Friends are here when you need them to be

I would just like to send my love to Kari, Thomas, and her mom, sister, and family.
You're dad is amazing.. and I always looked forward to seeing him at your place.. sitting on the deck, smiling as I walked in with a, "Hey Jenny Mc!"
I hope the next few days together are as wonderful as they are precious... I love you and wish I could be there for you.. and I will do what I can to get there soon!
*hugs*
