Wow I cannot believe that summer is almost half done! I am officially done my internship :D which I am so happy about. Now to deal with WCB and get my business a rolling :D I am going to be without my Mac Book Pro for 1-2 weeks which I am dreading beyond belief because all my programs I use all the time are on here! Oh well it has to go in for warranty work that is much needed I want my CD drive back working! Lots to do in the next few weeks. I have a client meeting on Monday, I want to register the business and put the mac on this thursday, I got some picture editing before it goes in and I must back everything up. Then Bill is home the 30th (which I am so very happy about) and we leave on our wonderful holiday on the 3rd to Alberta! We are going for a much needed vacation to Cypress Hills National Park (the alberta side) and camping at Beaver Creek! Our Great and Wonderful friends Crystal, Scott, Chase and Cater Titanich are meeting us there on the 4th and we are camping together till the 7th then we got to make the trek back home so Bill can drive to work on the 9th. This is going to be the longest truck ride our boys have ever been on and I am so looking forward to time away.

A Lazy Saturday
One of the toughest things about being an Oil Drillers wife is how much they aren't home. Bill left today so it has been a sad lazy day here. No matter how many times we do this it never gets easier the day he leaves. But the day he comes home is amazing. So the 22 day count is on.
On these days off coming up in August we are going on a holiday to Alberta for 4 days. We are going to go camping with very very great friends. It should be a blast and so nice to see them and just get away for a few days. It is the longest truck ride Zeus and Zak have ever been on.
Today I was searching to watch something on our tv and I came across one of my fave Kevin Costner movies Dragonfly, I knew right then it was going to be a lazy day lol. I fell asleep earlier on the couch, and had a two hour nap, But the great thing about our dish is that it comes on again so now I am finishing watching what I missed.

A busy outside day.
Where is the day going it is just flying by!
I got up this morning and got to talk to Bill, I missed our call yesterday because I was gone to the city. I then decided since it is suppose to rain tomorrow I better get the grass cut again, so I cut the front then took the boys to the lake for a swim. While we were there my keys dropped in the lake and I did not realize until I was putting the boys back in the SUV. I panicked but I found them only because I saw my lanyard floating in the water! I then came home had lunch and finished cutting the grass.
I did something I haven't done in years, I washed the Nitro in the back yard! While I was doing it I thought back to when I was a kid and it was the greatest thing in the world to wash your parents vehicle with a bucket and hose. I remember washing my Dad's 1981 Sierra until he told us we couldn't anymore because there was so much rust on it (of course I was already a teenager by then) I got me thinking out of all the kids Bill and I know would any of them enjoy this? It seems most kids these days rather sit inside on the computer, gaming systems or cell phones rather then getting outside and enjoying outside. Since we bought our house last year I have noticed we love to be outside on nice days even in the winter, we take pride in our yard and just loving the outdoors.
I then was watering our plants and garden and Zeus noticed I was outside and he decided that he wanted to be cranky and rammed his face in the screen! so now when Bill gets home on the 1st he is going to have to fix the screen, and the weird thing is Zeus can't be outside to long because he gets way to hot! So I let them out while I was finishing up a few things outside, like emptying and refilling his pool.
Even though it is quite hot out here it is a beautiful day (glad I got some time out before the clouds decided to show up)

First Winnipeg Blue Bomber Game!
Well today was such a fun day my friend Michelle came and scrapbooked with me, then I got to hang out with our nephew and then his mom and our other nephew for a few minutes. I got to go to my very first bomber game and even though they lost it was SO much fun. I went with my good friend Laurie, her husband and a friend of theirs. I am exhausted now that is for damn sure haha! Off to bed because once again tomorrow is a busy busy day.

What a Wednesday!
What a day from hell, spent all morning finishing up my website only for it to not work when I put it on the internet :S then I was late leaving traffic irritated me and when I finally got home I tried to fix my code and made it worse :S Some days I just wish I wasn't doing this for a living.
after relaxing a bit I got a banner done for a friends Etsy shop that I have been promising forever, and I got an idea for the tattoo I want to get soon of my last name as I am changing my name when Bill and I get married in 388 days (no I don't count I got a thing on facebook that does :P)

Now its time to run and start some laundry and then go to bed so I can get up early and start cleaning so at 8:00 I can start scrapping away, then watch our nephew, then off to a bomber game with friends :)

The end is here!
Wow Cannot believe how fast the time has gone since October, when I started to finish up my schooling. Tomorrow is my last class, my last assignment which is my website is due. In a month I will be done my internship, and after Bill and I get back from holidays in Alberta I will be starting my own business! which is scary and exciting all rolled into one! I couldn't have done it with out the support from so many people but most of all the love of my life Bill.
Here is to no more 5 am alarm clocks going off, no more 6 am commutes to Winnipeg and dealing with horrible commuters! Even though all of this is great I am sure going to miss some people they know who they are.
