Weekend fun

Well, this weekend was alot of fun :) We went to Millenium Place to go swimming and play. We went with two of my friends. One has a younger and older daughter, and my other friend has a younger daughter. So it worked out well. My daughter was with her oldest and the little ones played and then we went swimming.

I started to do Pilates, through my DS. Well actually through my husbands DS. I borrowed his. :)   It is fun. Not as intense when you first do it, then afterwards you feel it. Like a whole in the head! I woke up the next day and got out of bed, I felt like someone had kicked me in the sides all night. So I am assuming it worked. The unfortunate thing is I only did it that day, and hoping to get in a routine. Still haven’t hit the gym either :) Which makes me disappointed in myself. I paid for a membership that I am not using. So I feel really dumb when I don’t go. Slowly but surely I will be at it again.

Kids go back to school today! Thank goodness. I was running out of things to do and get her to do when I was at work, to make sure she doesn’t get into trouble. And to one of my girlfriends that thinks my kid is an angel – She get get into A LOT of trouble! Ha ha. I love that. She calls her an angel, I’m like right. You don’t see the bad in her! She isn’t bad, she is just sometimes bad. But paints a beautiful picture to the outside world (like most kids do).

Well I am at work, on lunch. Will be calling my mom today when I get home, and will also be trying crock pot lasagna some times this week. I found a recipe for it on http://pinterest.com/ and really excited to try it. Mostly becuae the last time I tried doing it, it was absolutely horrible. My husband and child smiled and ate it. I couldn’t even eat it. They kept saying it was great, I wanted to get out of there and cry. My brother makes the worlds best lasagna. Should tell him to come over and cook for me :)



I will definetly let you know how it goes. I may even post my steps on here so syou can see, and if it tastes gross, you can tell me what I went wrong. (ON MY LASAGNA ONLY!).


Hope you have a great day and will talk to you soon :)


Bien, este fin de semana fue alot de la diversión:) Fuimos a Lugar de Millenium para nadar y jugar. Fuimos con dos de mis amigos. Uno tiene una a hija más joven y más vieja, y mi otro amigo tiene a una hija más joven. Entonces trabajó fuera bien. Mi hija estuvo con su más viejo y los pequeños jugaron y entonces nadamos.
Comencé a hacer Pilatos, por mis D. Bien realmente por mis maridos D. Pedí prestado el suyo. :) Es divertido. No como intenso cuando usted primero lo hace, entonces después usted se siente. ¡Como un total en la cabeza! Me desperté al día siguiente y salí de cama, yo sentí como si alguien me había pateado en los lados toda la noche. Entonces asumo que trabajó. La cosa desgraciada es yo sólo lo hice que día, y esperando entrar una rutina. Todavía no ha golpeado el gimnasio cualquiera:) Que me hace decepcioné en yo mismo. Pagué por una asociación que yo no utilizo. Entonces me siento realmente mudo cuando yo no voy. Lentamente pero sin duda yo estaré en ello otra vez.
¡Los niños vuelven a la escuela hoy! Menos mal. Me quedaba sin cosas para hacer y conseguirla hacer cuando estuve en el trabajo, para asegurarse de que ella no se mete en líos. ¡Y a uno de mis amigas que piensa mi niño es un ángel – consigue entra en mucha molestia! Ah ah. Adoro eso. Le llama un ángel, yo estoy como el derecho. ¡Usted no ve el malo en ella! Ella no es mala, es sólo a veces mala. Pero pinta una hermosa imagen al mundo del exterior (como la mayoría de los niños hace).
Bien estoy en el trabajo, en el almuerzo. Llamará a mi mamá hoy cuando llego a casa, y también trataré lasaña de olla de cántaro algunos tiempos esta semana. Encontré una receta para ello en http://pinterest.com/ y emocioné realmente tratarlo. En su mayor parte becuae la última vez yo traté hacerlo, fue absolutamente horrible. Mi marido y el niño sonrieron y lo comieron. Puedo ni lo como. Mantuvieron decir quelo fue gran, quise salir de allí y el grito. Mi hermano hace los mundos mejor lasaña. Debe decirlo venir sobre y cocinar para mí:)


Permitiré definetly que sepa cómo va. Puedo anunciar aún mis pasos en aquí tan syou puede ver, y si prueba gruesa, usted me puede decir lo que fallé. (EN MI LASAÑA SOLO!).


Espere que tenga un gran día y hablará con usted pronto:)

Holiday post...

Well Christmas was fricken awesome!! I had a lot of fun! We went to my dad’s place for Christmas Eve, as we do every year J. We ate dinner around 8 p.m. and it was delicious! Dinner was great. We had turkey, rice, fried potatoes (my dad made them and they tasted amazing), and of course GRAVY! Then later on the boys were laying dominoes and the girls were playing with this book of Christmas fun. It was great! Then 10 to midnight, my brother realised that it was almost time to open presents.


What we normally do is open gifts at midnight and go from there J. It was great. I got a stocking full of fun and nice things.

I got very lovely gifts from gift cards to make up J I love make up. I got a gift card for Coach, and got myself two purses today (there was a sale going on 50 % selected purses). I also got a beautiful panda necklace with black diamonds in it. Also got a matching set of necklace and earrings as well. I got some Toy story things too. Mostly because I LOVE toy story!!! Best movie ever!!

My daughter got a ton of gifts that she also enjoyed. She loved the bags she got. Thank you to her Uncle, she has to remind me every time of it. Ha ha.

After Christmas at my dad’s place, we went back home. We later opened up gifts at my place. It was great. Then after that we did pretty much nothing. We sat around, ate and relaxed. We also invited my boyfriends sisters over (unfortunately one was missing, because she was ill).

Now we are on our first day of all our holidays. We went shopping and relaxed at home a lot. Well, I mostly slept. A lot. Took naps every moment I can. I actually think I took a four-hour nap! It was great. Other then that, the holidays have been great so far. I hope you all have had a great Christmas and have an awesome New Year (Which is just around the corner)!

¡Bien Navidad fue fricken impresionante!! ¡Tuve mucha diversión! Fuimos al lugar de mi padre por Nochebuena, como hacemos todos los años J. ¡Comimos la comida sobre las 8 de la tarde y fuimos delicioso! La comida fue gran. ¡Tuvimos pavo, el arroz, papas fritas (mi padre los hizo y probaron asombroso), y por supuesto SALSA DE CARNE! Entonces más tarde los chicos colocaban dominós y las chicas jugaban con este libro de la diversión de Navidad. ¡Fue gran! Entonces 10 a la medianoche, mi hermano se dio cuenta de que fue casi tiempo de abrir presentes.

Lo que hacemos normalmente está regalos abiertos a medianoche y va de allí J. Fue gran. Conseguí una media llena de la diversión y cosas agradables.

Conseguí regalos muy lindos de tarjetas de regalo hasta mayija !!  . Conseguí una tarjeta de regalo para Coach, y me conseguí dos bolsas hoy (había una venta que pasa 50 % bolsas seleccionadas). Yo también conseguí un hermoso collar del panda con diamantes negros en ello. También consiguió un conjunto parejo de collar y aretes también. Conseguí algunas cosas de historia de Juguete también. ¡En su mayor parte porque ADORO historia de juguete!!! ¡Mejor película jamás!!

Mi hija consiguió una tonelada de regalos de que ella también disfrutó. Adoró las bolsas que consiguió. Gracias a su Tío, ella tiene que recordarme cada vez de ello. Ah ah.

Después de Navidad en el lugar de mi padre, nosotros regresamos a casa. Abrimos luego regalos en mi lugar. Fue gran. Entonces después de que que nosotros no hiciéramos mas o menos nada. Nos sentamos alrededor, comimos y nos relajamos. Nosotros también invitamos mis hermanas de novios (desafortunadamente uno perdía, porque estuvo enferma).

Ahora estamos en nuestro primer día de todos nuestros feriados. Fuimos de compras y relajamos en casa mucho. Bien, dormí en su mayor parte. Mucho. Tomó siestas cada momento que puedo. ¡Pienso realmente que tomé una siesta de cuatro-hora! Fue gran. Otro entonces eso, los feriados han sido gran hasta ahora. ¡Espero que hayan tenido una gran Navidad y tienen un Año Nuevo impresionante (Que está a la vuelta de la esquina)!

Delay - Sorry

So, I had written a post over my Christmas holidays, and for the life of me, I wasn’t able to post the darn thing on my laptop. What I will do is email it to myself and back blog on Monday. I hope that is ok, because I don’t remember what I blogged about. But I do know..I BLOGGED!! Ha ha. Have a good weekend and talk to you soon!!!

Merry Christmas!!!

Well I have been a bit absent these last couple of days, so I am sorry. I can tell you that I have been busy, but I think that is a bit of a lie. I have been sick, which makes me lazy! Ha, so I was just being lazy ok! Ha ha. Even though I was done my Christmas shopping, I still had a few things to pick up. Once I picked that up, I thought I should get some more stuff. It just never stops!

Yesterday was my old clinics dinner Christmas get together. It was really great to see them all again. It makes me miss them even more. The hardest part is one of the docs said something to me, and it made me miss them more. I got in my car, and started to cry on the way home, and I couldn’t stop! It was so hard! I wanted to say to them ‘see you tomorrow’, but I forgot that I won’t! I hate knowing that our little family will never be ours again. It was tough, but really great seeing them.

Well, also I talked to my mother and she is doing good. Still hard to know that she isn’t here, but I know she is with family and they are taking care of her. I have a tough time at home at nights, because I talk to her every night before I go to bed, just to see what we did all day. Now I have no one to complain, laugh or talk to. She gets me, and it is hard. So during the week, I broke down again and cried myself to sleep. I would even think of a time that I wasn’t so good with her and see how I could have made that situation different. Then I would cry even more.

So really this week has been a tearful week. I think that is what made me so sick too. But I’m no doctor, contrary what my brother says 

Well ladies and gentlemen,I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a great New year. I hope you get everything you wanted and enjoy the family time you have.

Hugs and kisses,
Claudia

Bien he estado un poco ausente estas última pareja de días, así que lo siento. Le puedo decir que he estado ocupado, pero pienso que eso es un poco de una mentira. ¡He estado enfermo, que me hace perezoso! ¡Ah, así que acabo de ser visto bueno perezoso! Ah ah. Aunque fuera hecho mis compras de Navidad, yo todavía tuve unas cosas para recoger. Una vez que yo eso recogió, pensé que debo conseguir algunos más material. ¡Sólo nunca para!

Ayer fue mi comida vieja de dispensarios Navidad se junta. Fue realmente gran verles todo otra vez. Me hace los pierdo aún más. La parte más dura es uno de los doctores dijo algo a mí, y me hizo los pierdo más. ¡Entré mi carro, y comencé a llorar de camino a casa, y yo no podría parar! ¡Fue tan duro! ¡Quise decir a ellos 'le ve mañana', pero me olvidé que yo no hago! Odio saber que nuestra familia pequeña nunca será lo nuestro otra vez. Fue ver duro pero realmente granlos.

Bien, también hablé con mi madre y ella hace bueno. Todavía saber duramente que ella no está aquí, pero sé que está con la familia y ellos cuidan de ella. Tengo un tiempo duro en casa en noches, porque hablo con ella cada noche antes que me acueste, para ver sólo lo que hicimos todo el día. Ahora tengo nadie quejarse, reírse o hablar con. Me consigue, y es difícil. Entonces durante la semana, yo roto otra vez y me lloré para dormir. Pensaría aún en un tiempo que yo no fui tan bueno con ella y veo cómo podría haber hecho esa situación diferente. Entonces lloraría aún más.

Entonces realmente esta semana ha sido una semana lagrimosa. Pienso que eso es lo que me hizo tan enfermo también. Pero yo no soy médico, el contrario lo que mi hermano dice
Bien damas y caballeros, los deseo una Feliz Navidad y un gran año nuevo. Espero que consigue todo que deseó y disfruta del tiempo familiar que usted tiene.


Los abrazos y besa,
Claudia

Hello again. Just me here. I am on lunch today and the day has gone somewhat fast. I had a really bad night last night. I called my mom and spoke to her to see how she was doing. It was great hearing her. I needed to call her to hear her voice. Does that sound silly or what? After I got off the phone, I cried. I miss her so much. The nights are the worst for me, because she calls me when I get home from work, and then usually toward s the end of the night. Every day, I expect her call. And now I don’t get that. It makes me sad and makes me cry.  Also, after I talked to her all I could think about was her. I went to bed dreaming about her there and so forth. Then I woke up in a cold sweat, so I don’t know. It was a rough night.



I was also reading this book about child abuse. I finally finished it. Mind you whenever I picked it up I felt like throwing up. I told my daughter a bit about it. It is hard to explain to your 14 year old child that there are really sick people out there. And the sad part is, they are family. So the book I read was abouat two girls that were sexually and physically abused by their mother, their step father, his mom and dad and the mother’s dad. I was appalled!!! How could anyone at any point take advantage of a child! Why would you hurt such a precious thing. I looked at my daughter and all I can see is her beautiful blue eyes and her smile. Then she asked me what if someone hurt me, what would you do. I told her I would kill them. I said they better pray to god they don’t even look at you. She laughed, and deep down inside I was serious. I can’t imagine anyone taking advantage of my child. I would probably kill that person with my own hands. I told her what the book was about and what the sentences were for those people. She said that is sick and they deserve more than that. I said I know. I said you never know what people are living like behind closed doors. Then I told her, you think your life is bad because I get you to study, there are kids out there much worse off then you. And it is true.


So I think that also affected my sleep a bit too. So that was my night.


My child on the other hand didn’t fight or argue with me. Thank goodness. Another day of happiness. For now (only because I will have to have a tlak to her about school today…someone was bad…).


So, I got some responses to my ladies night this Saturday. Yeah!! I got one no, which sucks, because she is a really awesome friend of mine. And I did get two yeses. So we are on our way to planning a fun night!! Now to think of a something to make, and something to buy and something to do. I usually don’t decorate for ladies night. But I will have to start to clean up a bit. Maybe even put up the Christmas tree. I said I would this pasted Sunday, but never did. Was thinking of doing it yesterday, but my child was busy doing homework. And today I know is out of the question.


Also, I didn’t end up going to the gym. We are having some trust issues with our child, so my boyfriend asked me if I can postpone it till he is off next week. I told him sure, I can do that. Mild sacrifice to make our family a better one.


So yeah, that or I didn’t really want to work out anyways! No, just kidding. I really did. But that is ok, I can do stuff at home as well. Just need to get motivated.

Well I am off to readying this other book, which yet again, I know I should be.


Have a good lunch and let me know your opinions on my sick disgusting book I just red.


Talk to you all tomorrow!!

Just another day for me

Well, I am on lunch right now and as promised, I am here :) 

I was a bit tired today and slept in.  Even though I know I was supposed to wake up early in order to get the crock pot food ready for today.  Instead I have decided on having my child make dinner at home.  She knows how to and don’t worry I am over the "Will she burn the house down stage".  Ha ha.  I know she won't.  I am going to the gym today though.  I have my gym stuff in my bag and ready to go after work.  It make feel like a long day at the end, but I will be happy I went to the gym.  Now to find a gym partner. Ha ha.  And to try to work out for more than an hours. one of my best friends is in BC for a week, so not only am I not able to see my mommy, but now I can't even see my friend till Saturday.  Which is LADIES night at my place.  Whoot whoot.  I am hoping I get responses soon, or else it will be just me and some martinis.  Ha ha.  Was hoping my girl friend from Cold Lake was going to be in town, but doesn't look like it :(  But I know she will be there for New Year’s :)

So my child today woke up with less of an attitude.  THANK GOODNESS!  I knew she would, but it was nice to actually see it.  Now for her not to get into trouble today is a whole different story.  But we will see.  I am done my Christmas gifts, and done my stocking stuffers.  Oh wait, I only have two gifts to get, but I know what they are and where I can get them.  I am done my friends and family.  I am proud to say I have  not gone overboard.  Have you?  I think my craziest year was probably last year.  I have now tamed it down a lot, and hard now that my kid is a teenager.  Barbie’s and ponies will not due anymore.  And it sucks, because I love looking at them in the store. Then I just walk away sighing. 

I told my boyfriend and child that I need some Toy Story 3 stuffies for my collection.  So I will need to go ahead and modify my list today :) (watched all three movies this weekend.)  I love Woody.  He is my favorite. 

Well, I am going to check out some other stuff and will let you know how my evening went tomorrow, if anything interesting has happened.  Feel free to comment and tell me if you went overboard on gifts this year? :)

It has been a while....

Wow, it has been a while since I have posted. I do apologize for that, but not really sure if there are actually people who still follow me. Ha Ha. Anyways, allots has changed in the past months. First off, I am no longer working for the clinic I was working at before. I now have a new job. My old clinic was being relocated and due to union and stuff our old staff was not able to go with them. We all choose to give our notice on Oct. 21, 2011. I was lucky enough to get a job one week after that. I am now at the University Hospital. The job is different from my old job and it feels weird. It feels like I am starting from scratch, and at first I really didn't like it. It took them two weeks to get trained (which felt like a long process. I was sitting around allot, doing odd things around the office.) But once they got me trained, I was on my way. I totally got it. I understood it all and went on with my new job. It still feels weird not coming into the clinic and seeing everyone, not seeing the patients and all. The environment is different, but something I have to get used to.
Christmas is almost here, and that means it is almost time for a break!!! YEAH!!!
That means i will have about two weeks off and will be able to sleep in (which honestly is hard for me to do anyways). I am done with my Christmas shopping. I am done my stocking shopping. I am done the teachers gifts. Don't really know how the office works where I am at, so I won't be doing Christmas gifts for them this year (or making cupcakes :( ). SEE !!! It is different!
I am back to work tomorrow, as I was off on Thursday and Friday. My mom went back home for three months. It is really lonely here. She was the one who called me the most. At least two to three times a day. And I always talked about my day with her and vice versa. Also went out with her on weekends. It sucks. It is hard. Toughest is at night and on the weekends. I have an adoptive momma for the time that my momma is gone. She is from my old clinic. So I will be texting her about my day and stuff :) She is really awesome! Shout out to LUCY!!!
Well, I have a bit of a headache. Just finished dealing with my 14 year old headache. I swear to god, she thinks she is always right, and one day I hope the truth bites her in the butt and gets the wake up call. It makes me wonder if everyone goes through this or is it just me. Because sometimes it feels like it is just me and everyone else has the perfect kid! Mind you they are all different behind closed doors. Oh well, such is life. Ups and downs, we still love them. No matter what kind of hell they put us through. I always tell her that when you have your own daughter you will call me and all I will say is I know. YOU WERE THE SAME WAY! Ha ha.
Well, just going to check out some things on the computer, get a recipe ready for the crop pot tomorrow, because it is back to the gym for me. Starting to feel a bit bigger and need to loose that weight.

Have a good night and talk to you all tomorrow. ( I will not forget...)
