    Been a long time

    Well it sure has been a long time...soo much has happened since I wrote in here.  Kevin started working in June and I took some time off from work to spend with Cam over the summer.  In June we took Cam to Science World and we showed him the "Dome" and GM Place, we all had a good time there. 

    Kevin is working at Shaw, things are pretty decent, We had our first Easter and Thanksgiving and recent Christmas together.  Over the summer we went to see Kevin's parents and relatives in Alberta.  We spent some time in Red Deer, Strathmore, Leduc, Calgary, Drumheller and everywhere in between.

    We recently (October 29th) celebrated 1 year together, it was an ok night, Kevin had to work and I was home with Cam.  We had made plans but he ended up getting pulled over for speeding and couldn't answer his phone - he got a warning...mean time I am worried as hell since it only takes him 15-20 mins tops to get home.  Gah what a night.

    Christmas was not to bad, we ended up in Emergency Christmas Eve morning cuz Kevin had a really really horrible migraine and that sure was not how I figured I would be spending my time that morning.  We spent Christmas with my family this year, hard to say what we will do next year .  We are not sure if we want to move to Manitoba (his home province) or not.  Maybe the interior hard to say - we are leasing our condo until the end of June at the moment so we have to decide soon what we want to do as there is a lot of planning - finding Cam a school, getting him someone to help him with monitoring his blood sugar levels and testing him, getting him a new set of doctors, all that fun stuff.

    Cameron is growing pretty good, getting tall.  He is a new school this year and he seems to be doing better there.  He didn't take long to get adjusted and fit in with his classmates.  He seems to like it there which is good, I was not to impressed with his old school that is for sure.

    Been a busy year, lots going on, lots of new adventures and experiences, lots of things that were fun, some definite learning experiences that is for sure.  It goes with the teritory...

    Not much else to say really, coming up on a year (Jan. 17th) that Kevin moved in...my status as a single person in the eyes of the law will be gone - now if I can only get Kevin to hurry up and ask me to marry him I would be one very very happy girl...

        Well here it is, a long awaited update.  Been busy...lemme see Cam turned 6 on April 21st, man time sure does fly.  We had a good time, took him to Montana's and he wore the moose horns again lol at least this year he could see from under them, last year all you could see is a part of his face it was so cute.

        Been pretty sick with my celiacs, it really is not getting any better, to much stress at work and stupid nonsense going on there.  I need to find something better, and trust me after a bit of time off, I might feel better and be able to go through a day without being in so much pain. 

       Things are going good with Kevin, been some up's and down's, but he kinda understands.  He is so not good at housework, I come home from work when he is here all day and it is a disaster, I dunno how he does it.  It takes him all day to clean the livingroom, wash the floor (not by hand either) and take out the garbage.  We did have his folks come over for a bit, we had gone over to see them when his dad was in New Westminister, my first trip on the sea bus and skytrain, it was kinda cool until we were heading home and realized we were going to miss the last Horseshoebay Ferry home, and if we had to catch the other one from Tsawwassen we would have gotten into Duke Point around 2am, and we had Cam with us and I had to work the next day.  But yeah it was a lot of fun for the most part, it was so neat pulling up in the sea bus and seeing the city skiyline of Vancouver, I had not seen it is so long I was in awe.  I want to go back and take Cam to science world.  We went past GM place on the Sky Train and Cam was so excited - he loves the Canucks.

       Anyhow with all that going on and the BS at work, I just needed to take some time off.  I will be happy to take some time off lol...I need to get into shape, oh man.  I tore up my ankle a bit ago, was in an air cast for the longest time, that sucked - still should be wearing it but I am stuborne.  Other than that I got the flu a bit ago, that kinda sucked, oh I was sooo sooo sick sicker than I have been in soo many years.  Gosh man that sucked lol.  

       I got my 28th birthday coming up, should be fun, not to sure what I will do but oh well.  Kevin`s parents left me a B-day card with a cheque in it hehe - they also gave Cam $40 for his B-day, gosh it is odd haha, but yeah in no time Kev and I will be common law, odd thought lol.  I love him to bits and all, I love how good it feels to cuddle with him, and just sit and hang out with him, he is a good guy I am pretty darn lucky and I know it. 

        I also got word a friend of mine is heading off to Afgahnistan again for about 8 months, Kandahar to be exact and that can`t be good.  I wish him and all those with him a safe return in 8 months.  I know it is hard for him being over there. 

        Anyhow I guess that is about it from me...for now...maybe now that I got more time (hahaha as if) I will be around more.   Cheers!

  •    I was doing some random thinking about where I want my life to go in the next couple of years.  I guess I have always had this notion that I wanted to be married before I was 30.  I am nearly 28 now, I also want to be settled and stuff before I have another kid, if I have another one...I want one there is no doubt, it would be great to have one with Kevin he is a really amazing guy and is really good with Cam, firm but fair.  He takes a hands on role with him and keeps him in line if need be.  He is always willing to help me out more, he realizes how much I do for him and he in turn does a lot for me.  It's odd to have such a partnership going but it is nice to have.

      I hope and I really want to get married before I am 30.  I dont want to have another kid at 35 ya know and I can't think of anyone else I would want to be with.  He is so good to me and so sweet and caring and kind.  I already know he would be so great...I don't want to get to ahead of myself but it would be so awesome.

       I got my dream wedding all planned lol, on a beach prob the Oregon coast or Hawaii, near sunset, close friends and relatives there, both of us barefoot in the sand, nothing fancy like some big dress - just casual like Kahki shorts for the guys with nice dress shirts, I want Cam to be included - ring bearer, I am not sure whom I want to have as the flower girl - dont know anyone lol...got time to work on that...a lot of it.  I also think for the reception have tiki torches in the middle of the area in a big circle and the tables in a bigger arc surrounding them, then each table would have those little floating candles in a big glass dish on them.  The dancing area would have paper laterns and tiki torches lighting it, a portable stage with a band and I want my cousin Robin to play something with her Violin since she is off at Berklee now...I can just see my son and decked out in a little tux - he would look sooo adorable with his buzz cut and a tux...Kevin would probably inist on wearing a suit lol he is just like that...but I am sure I could talk him into the Kahki thing...

       Anyhow this cool it is like a dream - nothing big or fancy, nothing expensive and something I will remember for a long time to come.  I want Hawaii - thier cultures and wedding traditions are so neat and just has a really romantic feeling to it Kewina and Kalena (poor Kev lol he will not like his Hawiian name).  Anyhow that is all for now got to get ready to make dinner and stuff...

    Here is hoping I get to realize that dream...

          Ok I know I have been slacking off out here...why, cuz I have been busy.  Some family stuff came up, namely my mom getting all pissy at me for shit.  Two weeks before she would talk to me again, meh shit happens.  Kev and I do a lot more on our own now without help.  He gets Cam up and fed and dressed in the mornings and off to school, he helps clean up and do things around the house.  He got my an iPod shuffle (a new one it is orange and has Karenz Tunes engraved on it) and he got me a Nintendo DS Lite - I am paying him for them - just some of it as I feel guilty for him doing such nice things.  Still getting up and 4am, still dragging my ass to and from work each day.  Things with Kevin and good, starting to love that man more and more (if that is possible), he is really sweet and helps me out a lot.  No matter how bad a day it is he is there to help make things better than they would have been without him.  Cam said he wants Kevin to stay forever, and Kevin was like ok it's a deal.  I was like hmm don't make a kid promises if you cant keep them, but to be honest I don't see him going anywhere.  He makes life what I had always wanted...good.

       Cam may have Tourettes Syndrome, been noticing the ticks and twitches A LOT more now and the odd facial movements and sounds.  It's not for sure but I go Thursday to see a specialist so who knows.  Things are not half bad, got plans for my 2 weeks off, not sure if Kevin will have the time off (he has a very good chance of getting a job with Shaw Cable doing tech support starting next week) but if he doesn't have the time off right then, then I will wait until he gets vacation time and we can do something then.  I just know I am going to need a break by July, a whole year and not a single day off that didnt come out of a family day or a sick day. 

       We are thinking of maybe moving down to Victoria this summer, so I can find a better job and we can get Cam into a decent school, just break  free a bit from my family here and gain that independence that I need.  I love Victoria it is such a beautiful city.  So much to see and do.  I plan on taking Kevin down there soon for a weekend get away - just the two of us, probably stay in a place near the water and  stuff, I would love to spend the day browsing in and out of all the little shops and  just enjoy the (hopefully) nice weather. 

        I think that this is a good representation of how I feel at the end of my work day.  lol...kinda like ahhhh wtf.  I like my shift - to a degree.  I hate my supervisor she is sooo not nice to me, she is nice to most of the people on the team but when I need something done I get nothing but flack and hassle.  Took me 3 weeks to get her to talk to the lady who does benefits.  I dunno time to get a new one.  When it comes to things I need at work I  want to get it done, I don't want to wait two or three weeks when I know it takes like 10 minutes to do.  She tells me I need to use streamline more, which is our knowledge base type thing, I am like look I use it on every single e-mail I send out.  I am tired of being railroaded in things.  I am only human here I can only take so much and at 5am - that aint a lot.   Ahh well tomorrow is another day...Kevin has his 2nd interview with Shaw, if all goes well then he will prob start next week...that will be interesting but all that is cool...he needs this job.  I need him to have a job - supporting the 3 of us for the last 2 months mostly on my own has not been a fun task, he does help out in a lot of other ways which helps me out a lot so I don't compain and I am ok with it...but we need things lol he wants a car and I need a new washer and dryer and a couch.  Things are pretty good no real issues was rough at first, but we are getting used to each others temperment and things are generally not that bad.  Hehe every morning when I get up to go to work he says good morning and hugs me and gives me a kiss and says I love you have a good day at work.  Such a sweetie, then he rolls over and goes back to sleep lol.  

        Well I think that is about it for now...more later bed time...

  •      Well here I am sitting here in my room doing nothing.  Working off 3 hours and 45 minutes of sleep and I am farking tired as hell.  But I think I am on my 100th wind now...kinda starting to get that headachey feeling going on and it is sucking something fierce.  Kevin is at work till 6 and Cam wont be home for another hour so I figured I would try and nap...hahahaha yah right.  My mind starts going around and around about what I need to be doing and I am like gah!  Work is going well...I actually like my job now lol what a concept.  Minus Saturday when we got to go take Activations calls right in the middle of our day...oh that was such a riot...NOT!

          Other than that things are good, been a little up and down with things lately and had some heart to heart chats with Kevin.  I realize he is not used to having a gf and living with her, he sometimes forgets that what he does affects me as well.  I just feel like sometimes I am such a low priority for him - but he is not one to really talk about how he feels often and that kinda gets me wondering about what is going on in his head.  I just sometimes get frustrated because he keeps a schedule like no other...that guy can be up all hours of the night sometimes and I don't get to be with him.  I have to get sleep or else I am really really grumpy.  But all I want to be able to do is cuddle up with him and watch a movie or something but since I cant I don't get that time with him.

        Anyhow I guess for now that is about all I don't really got a lot to say I want to try and sleep a bit before the rug rat gets home...sleep is your friend haha.  ttys everyone...
