My mother’s day was all over the place. Not that I literally went everywhere, because it turned out we only went for a drive just to get out of the house, which was really nice by the way. There was a lot of emotions going around on Mother’s Day. As some of you may know, my mother passed away close to 10 years ago, so it does kind o suck on Mother’s Day, yes I shed a few tears because I miss her so much. She’s in a better place, and so am I. I have to admit I wish she could see me now, and be in my life right now to share the happiness I am living. I know she is watching over me, and smiling, so I have that comfort to live with. I hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s day and took the time to at least call your Mother even if things are bad or good, it’s one phone call it won’t kill you! Same goes for Father’s day or someone’s birthday, heck even the holidays that only comes once a year. I know not everyone gets a long with all their family members, some stop talking after awhile. For instance in my family, sure my brothers have distant themselves from me and my sister, but that’s ok. I know they have lives to live. But a Christmas card once a year is not much to ask is it? But on that note, that time of the year is pretty hectic, and it can get away from you before you know it. Then you are into the new year and the cycle begins again. I should shut my yapper now, I think everyone knows what I mean. And people please please please, and do not be pushy on people either, everyone has their time they need to do what they need to do for their own sanity and their own happiness. It’s not so much but out, but more like be patience and give the person space. I’ve been doing that for my family for awhile now. So now I’ve made the steps to fill the gap, and send of greeting cards, so they know I care.
Right anyway, so it’s a beautiful day today, the house is always on the chilly side but it’s soooo gorgeous outside! Hmm this maybe a good time for a picnic wooohooo! Haven’t been on one of those in ages, well with family anyway hehe. Something I think I will give a go to this summer is a little miniature golfing, I never got a chance to do that, isn’t that sad? Yes it is, my ex’s were losers lol no I’m kidding or am I? lol. Oh bowling too, my knee is a bit bad right now, after my little accident while taking a trip to Ireland, but I think if I take my time I would be ok.
OMG I got my new mobile today, well actually Saturday lol. Yeah I got the Blackberry Storm 2, it’s really awesome, I am getting use to the touch screen, but I love it! It can be a problem with nails, any girls out there have long nails and have a problem texting? Probably so! I’ll get use to it, I’m loving it though! Thanks so much William, you are the best. My old blackberry is about to end soon, so we (as in William and myself) got the Blackberry Storm 2, he is really adjusting to it quite nicely. At first he was going to pick the Blackberry Tour but then they showed us the Storm turned on, not just the display one. I mean you can’t really appreciate the display one just like that, and he really liked it, so he turned out getting it as well. It’s an awesome mobile!
Is anyone going to have a green beer today? I am *raises hand* hehe. I have never had a green beer, I know it’ silly, and it’s probably just food coloring in it, but it’s still fun because its St. Patrick’s Day, so today I will have a beer or two. And since I have William around me which is part Irish how better can it get, okay maybe if my friend Alice was around too that would rock, as she is full blooded Irish! Even my coffee cup is green today. Gosh do you remember as a kid in school, if you didn’t wear anything green you got pinched? Lmao omgosh I remember that so clearly, there were a few years I’d forget to wear green and I’d get pinched, then I would turn around and say look at my eyes you fool they are green hehe. Well they were then, now they are more hazelish green. It was still funny. Where did that come from the pinching if you don’t have green on, on St. Paddys day? *scratches head* it don’t matter but if anyone knows let me in on it, because now I am very curious.
A few years ago, I had the pleasure of visiting Ireland. Dublin no less, it was a wonderful experience, I feel it could of been a better experience if that had not been the time I injured my knee
but I still hobbled around town and all. It was even better because I had gone with Alice, and she was from Dublin, Ireland, so I had my own personal tour guide. It was amazing, we even went to see where they made the famous Guinness beer, went to a pub and had a few of them. Gosh it was such an incredible experience, that I would love to do again. Unfortunately I wasn’t in control of the digital camera lol or believe me there would of been a bazillion pictures hehe. I tried not to let my injured knee stop me from having fun.
Last night we watched LOST, omgosh 8 episodes left, I cannot believe it, after all this time, it’s really almost over. Like everything else, all good things come to and end eventually. And Flash Forward is coming back next week as well and after that will be V woohoo exciting shows to watch. I just remembered I have to sort something out with ebay. You see I have this issue, my account was created while in England, so it continuously goes to ebay.co.uk instead of ebay.com which is irritating but I have been dealing with it. But I am now ready to put up my ebay stuff for sale, and I was ready to list my first item, then it sends me to a page saying I need to set up a way to pay ebay for the fees but this page is the ebay.co.uk page, and not the .com one, so i’m like okay, let me set up this paypal thing first. Then it takes me to paypal, which in turn now shows me a note saying that the funds ebay.co.uk is asking for is not the same currency therefore I will be charged for converting, so I’m like WTF??!!!! Ok I stop there, and now I figure I need to find out how to change the countries on this. I have this real bad feeling they are going to make me get a new account and to be honest, I can’t be bothered with managing two accounts, I want one account for both selling and buying grrr
so that is what I need to try to sort out now. Wish me luck, hey it’s St. Patrick’s Day, maybe I will have some luck with this. I am leaving you with a video, the Irish Tap Dancing Riverdance, I’ve always wanted to go see this. Enjoy!
Gorgeous Display ...
There will be a lot of changes this year for myself and a lot of those out there. Did you all make your New Years resolution? I haven’t yet, I should … like soon! First things though, changed the theme at my personal weblog, not what I was looking for really but I think it’ll do. I have websites I really need to work on, so hopefully I get all that updated this week. This weekend we finally put away all the Christmas decorations, I think it was a day or two after Christmas I think I mentioned or maybe I didn’t going shopping for Christmas decorations, so much at 50% off, we got a lot. Good way of saving for the next Christmas wrapping session. I really think all I will need is tape lol. Apart from wrapping paper, bags, cards, name tags, we also found some cute Christmas decorations, so really cute. I can’t wait until Christmas just to put them out to look at hehe. Anyway well that time has passed and new things are to come.
This past weekend we popped into store to pick up a few things like for laundry. And already they had Valentine stuff up! Wow already I can’t believe it, then again it’s going to come and go as quickly as Christmas did. I think it would be fun to do a little Valentine decoration, but it comes and goes so quick, is it worth it? My sister in law Anna does decorate, I think it’s cute and very romantic. I consider myself to be romantic as well. Speaking of Anna, her birthday was on the 4th, and I wanted to wish her a very happy birthday. Like myself we both are so close to the big holidays.
Oh and since I am talking about holidays, over the holidays I got a chance to go to this beautiful Christmas display at LaSalette Church, in Attleboro. It was huge, just driving up you can see all the lights up wow it’s breath taking. Well I took loads of pictures and a few with my mobile as well. I think I will close this blog here, as I need to add some of the photos obviously not all lol. I got to go now, enjoy the photos (click photo for full view), anyway have a great week!
