Mousin' Around

Over the last few years since we moved to this house we have experienced some little friends - mice.
They live in our garage and garden and are driving my mother up the wall. 
Every time she catches one she cries because she knows its dead. We usually always use the container ones with the poison because then you cant see the actual dead mouse , however , this time we tried modernized versions of the old wooden and wire traps.
We put some peanut butter on it and waited and whadya know , we caught one almost instantly!
unfortunately though , it didnt die.....
It only got its poor little foot stuck in it.... which still made my mother cry...

The poor mouse would not stop squeaking and squirming - which made me squeak and squirm too...
I almost wish that it died instantly... would have been better for everyone.

Now because my mother and i freaked out neither of us have the guts to touch or move it....so we put a pot over it.
hopefully that will calm it down and it will give us some time until we have to deal with it....
and by deal with it i mean wait for either torrie or my brother to come here and maybe they have the guts to get rid of it..... poor little guy :(

When All Else Fails, Use the Grittle!

So tonight im making dinner as per usual but unfortunately it all goes wrong.
were it started to go wrong was me being frustrated to being with from the fact that my bedroom is taking forever to get completed. - cooking while unhappy is never a good idea!
So i have this bruschetta pizza in my freezer so i say alright to that and an awesome pear-kiwi-strawberry yogurt smoothie.
The smoothie turns out awesome of course but the pizza..... not so much
i put it in the oven and it seems like its gonna be fine , but it wasnt at all.
turns out i set the wrong temperature and also forgot to take the tinfoil off our rack.... the bottem would just NOT COOK.
even once i fixed everything - which clearly was to late - it still would not cook!.
i tried covering just the top with tinfoil so that it wouldnt burn the top
i tried turning the heat up.
nothing was going to work.
that was when i got my grittle pan out. why not right
so i put it on there and would you believe it , it cooked it perfectly.

tasted pretty good too! gonna have to test out some more foods on this baby!

Lettin' the Good Times Roll!

Last night was a girls night out. me , ariffa , and sister torrie decided to head down to the hifi club and have some good fun and let me tell you , it was definitely fun.
We had a blast.
Shit talking the lame guys in the bar....
Doing some dancing ....

and some drinkinn ....

and running away from foreign men and chilling after hours.



the real excitement , however , started up once we - torrie and i - got back to my place.

Torrie was veryveryvery drunk.

She couldnt form sentences , she was vomitting some. she was feeling the affects of a lot of alcohol.

Here i am being the best sister ever trying to get her to drink some water that she decides would be a good idea to pour allllllll over me. then as im pulling her up the stairs she desides to fall up and crash right on top of me.... so we laid at the top of the stairs laughing our ass's off for a good 5 minutes.

Finally then i get her to the bathroom and then to bed.

All that took us to about 6 in the morning....

yep gotta say it was an eventful night.

This spills over to today as well though. Basically I was torries nurse today haha

Thank you Ariffa and Torrie for a good time and the memories!!

When Your Feelin' Down....

Today i had a nervous break down.
Honestly i was a little worried for not only myself , but anyone who would come into contact with me had a good chance of getting knocked the fuck out and continuously beaten apon untill they were twitching from brain damage....brutal? little over the top? maybe , but its how i felt.
The fighting between my family and i has gotten to a point were no one wants to be with there family.
This insaneness has been going on for about 4 years and im just so so tired.
tired of it all.
My friend ariffa asks me what happend because naturally i took some of my rage out on facebook and wrote an "i hate you" status.
I explain what happens and she sends me this picture

which makes me laugh but also cry because i mean i hear that all the time and hopefully one day everything will be alright.

One day ill be out of here. out of the crazy hell hole im in right now.

one day ill be were i want to be and it will be alright.

Untill then i have my dreams , my boyfriend , and my girls to keep my spirit up.

Shed Filled Saturday

So saturday my boyfriend calls me up and asks if i wanna help him build his shed....
first thing that runs through my head is why are you asking me of all people , then i realize well why not right? ive put things together before. building a shed shouldnt be hard. not to mention he doesnt know if i suck or not so...anyways i said id help him.
So we get to his place and the base was built to big but like genious' we said fuck it and built on it anyways.
Now this shed is definitely going to leak there is no doubt about it. there were so many holes and honestly we just didnt give a fuck how this thing was put together. we were cold and just so over building this thing.
everything was bent. nothing fit together right we had left over pieces. and the roof , man oh man let me tell you about the roof.
Because the base was to big and we bent the walls , the roof obviously wasnt going to fit on properly. the holes / spaces between some of the parts were big enough to fit your hand through.
what a shit show...
So to fix our awesome handy work we decided to use this cocking stuff and duck tape to try and fill it in... lol , it filled it in alright but got everywhere and probably still wont keep the rain and snow out. anyways we definitely needed something better so emri went and got spray foam. that shit also got everywhere. just a mess , the whole thing , disaster.
Afterwards we were so cold from being outside till dark and it not being that nice out emri grabs a sleeping bag and all of a sudden tells me " i have the best idea! lets both get in the sleeping bag! "
lol well you can only imagine right.
We both are standing on his bed and are squished together as if we are one big fat person and trying to zip up this sleeping bag. Then once we finally get the sleeping bag on - can you believe we actually got it on - we looked at each other and started laughing because neither of us knew how to lay down without falling from the bed to the floor heads first. so we are trying to sit down but we are facing each other so we are just hitting each others knees and its just a disaster. we end up falling sideways and just collapsing. it was hilarious - kids dont try that at home.

Needless to say it was an eventful mess of a saturday.
Next project , my bedroom carpet.... fingers crossed it goes better then the shed

Long Weekends Every Weekend

So my weekends now run through from friday to monday - weuuuu
Basically what I did this weekend was hang out with my boyfriend and use my magic bullet - im in love with my magic bullet.
Over the weekend me and emri ( boyfriend ) went to cochrane to meet up with his friend tim so they could use the skate park there. We got lucky and they were the only ones in the park - i got to do homework while they bmx'd.... so lucky right.
We didnt stay long cause it was way to fuckin hot out.
We also checked some stuff out at bowness park and went and saw that new Apollo movie.
I was freaked the fuck out. I was jumping like every second and let me tell you... I will never look at a rock the same - good movie though. go see it!

My Magic bullet is the best tool in my kitchen. Ive been making so many different combinations of smoothies ive lost track but m m mmmmm they have all been CRAZY deliscious! - seriously if you dont have one go get one!
Ive made ones like

• Strawberry-banana - duh... also made one with some mango alize added -tee hee
• Kiwi-pear
• raspeberry-banana-strawberry
• apple pear-nectarine

and many more
Anyways that was my weekend basically.
back to school on tuesday... gotta finish my math homework... seems to be getting easier to do the work though.. must have been a frist-day-freak-out - fewf!....wish me luck though!

Back to Hitting the Books!

Yesterday was the first day of my math upgrading class.

I wanna start off by saying what the fuck was I thinking!!! ...

Seriously I must have hit my head or lost my mind completely when I though I would actually be able to one - do any sort of math work and two - do it at a fast pace and keep up!

Now maybe I am just being paranoid because well I hate math , but also I am 3 years rusty at even going to class never mind a math class - did I mention I hate math.... like with a passion?

I was definitely not expecting to walk into the first math class and get right to work on the lesson(s).

Ya lessons... we did 3 in one class... which I had no idea would happen.

I wanted to cry. By the time I sort of knew what I was doing in the first lesson , we had done 2 other lessons and it was the end of class. 

I totally started beating myself up over it - common brain pick it up for fuck sakes!

I have nice friends though. Ariffa texted me later on in the day and was trying to be motivational..

Text : You are not [going to fail] Confidence! Excitement weooooooooooooooooooooh! Future! Eye on the prize! - I can totally hear how she would be saying all this and trust me she wouldnt be saying it in this exciting "go you go" attitude even though she means it that way... if you really wanna know how she would sound just read the sentence to yourself and pretend the exclamation marks arent there. What she finishes the motivational sentence with proves it - Ill stop now!!

Surprisingly she is super motivating though. I heart her.

Afterwords me and my boyfriend went to get something to eat and register his new car.

Then we headed out to Canmore so he could do a little bmxing. 

We grabbed some awesome pizza from Pizza Construction - sooo yummy - and then headed on home. 

By the time we reached home I was dead tired. 

From waking up so early in the morning then stressing my brain out to its breaking point - beyond repair I think - to driving to Canmore and back I just could not stay awake. 

I had even attempted to right this very blog... but there was no way it was happening.

So with that I just gave up trying to fight off the sleepiness and just laid down and passed right the fuck out.

Which brings me to this morning, waking up to get my brother off to school , make a fresh & yummy banana-raspberry smoothie and seeing my puppy <3

Start to a great morning so far , however , stupid math is still in the back of my head taunting me.

which reminds me I need to finish my math homework for tomorrow - sigh.

Getting Schooled in Molded Fashion

So its back to school starting tomorrow.
My little brother is starting grade 11 and im upgrading my math 30 - hurray :s
I went to do some laundry so that my brothers uniform was clean and I had something to wear to school that wasnt sweat pants and a baggy t-shirt...
What happend though made me so mad I couldnt even blog about it...
okay so we had put some bags of clothing outside for a few days and we forgot about them.... so now half of them are covered in mold because of the rain and then hot weather... ITS FUCKING DISGUSTING!!!!!
But what can you do right?
So now I have like a science experiment in my back yard which consists of big buckets full of water and vinegar with the clothing soaking in them. Afterwards i will put them through my wicked washing machines that are like washing magic and hopefully that works - stay tuned for results...

I would show you pictures but seriously.. I just cant even deal with that right now.. to angry - sigh...

Todays lesson?
Do not leave bags of clothing outside when you live in calgary.... the weather is way to unpredictable.
Now you know / i know what happens when you leave bags of clothing outside in rainy / extremely hot weather...
sigh

Imagine

So I know I am probably not the first person to be writing about this video in particular and I definitely know I am not the first person to be writing about something like this ever but I just gotta past it on.
This video made me burst into tears - seriously I could not control myself , was a little embarrassing.
Watching videos like this makes my heart hurt even more because its like why cant there be more people like the mother in this video... why cant there be more people who adopt little children with missing limbs and such...
Dont get me wrong Im not saying everyone should go adopt someone , but people should learn to be more caring and see the beauty no matter where they go.
Imagine were we would all be in life if we cared and saw the beauty in things even half as much as this lady...
Cheers to this amazing women!

Note : keep lots and lots of tissue near by before watching!

The Rebirth!

I have been racking my brain trying to figure out why I cant seem to "blog properly "

But what really is the "proper " way to blog you might ask?

Good question!! If you find out would you let me know?

...Seriously though, I am so frustrated with my writings that it was making me not want to do it. It felt like a burden...

Then I got wind of what my friend Ariffa was doing.

She was having some issues/ identity crisis with her blog as well which caused her to redo everything.

She gave it a new name, changed the layout, the whole shebang and it looks great!

Ariffa is oh so inspiring and wise. She is my go-to-girl!

Check her out!

... gentleman, did I mention she is single and can cook like no other...

So with that I took it upon myself to also change up my blog and such because well....Im no longer in a crisis or distress - which if you have been following me since the beginning you would know that! - and most people dont wanna read a rant now do they.. so I switched it up.

I wanted something new, fresh, and fun. Something that I could relate to better now that my life is getting somewhere that isnt depressing...

And so "Days of My Life" is born!

And let me tell you, it wasnt easy....

This thing took me alllll fricken day and more patients then I have!

With that, I hope you like it!

Me & My Magic Bullet

So I got me a Magic Bullet a little while ago and just recently started getting really into using it. :)

Ive been making smoothies like crazy.
Tonight I made one that Im really fond of. It was so yummy.
Granted its nothing exciting or brand new and never thought of but still... Im going to show you anyways.

I was looking in my not so very stalked fridge trying to come up with something to make for dinner.

I saw me some eggs and ketchup and I was like okay, egg sandwiches.

Then I saw me some kiwi's and pears and thought... might as well use them.. would hate to let them go to waste..

SO I made the egg sandwich and ate it.

Then I set to work on my smoothie.

Cut me up some kiwi's and pears

Put them in the cup & added some ice ice baby..

Then mixed this shit up

Added some nummy nutella! and mixed that in real good.

Which created this deliciousness <3

M M MMMM. By far my favorite thing Ive produced with my bullet.

Anyone eles out there have a magic bullet with which they created one of there favorite things to eat??

Hit me with some ideas, im all ears !!!!!!

F.U.

So these last few days I have been very stressed and what not and I have just one thing to say.

FUCK YOU!!!!!!!

...you know who you are and if you dont then maybe you should take 30 seconds to pay attention...

SO sick of your guys shit...

That is all.

The Shitty Surgery Experience!

So the other day I finally got all my wisdom teeth out and let me tell you, it was somethin' else!

Heres how it went down...

I get up that morning and unfortunately Im already panicing.

Surgery/ teeth are not my forte..Ive had penty of surgeries before and I had braces so obviously pulling teeth isnt new to me...still though.. I never had any smooth sailing experiences...

Like when I was little I had to get 4 teeth pulled to be able to put my braces on.. ya turns out I dont take to the freezing like AT ALL, the dentist didnt care nor was he interested in trying to find another way.. so he just pulled them out..WITH OUT freezing.. I know can you believe it?!!

Anyways so as time is ticking away im getting more and more nervous. Luckily I have an amazing boyfriend who called me and gave me a little pep-talk and tried to insure me that everything was going to be okay. :)

Sadly, everything wasnt going to be okay :( ....

We get to the dentists office and I can hear him talking to another mom about how her daughters surgery...it didnt sound good but apparently it went very routine... FUCK  O_O...

Anyway shortly after that they gave me a form to sign...on it was possible things that could happen during the surgery.. like fracturing my jaw, cutting nerves.. cool shit like that..this made me panic even moree.

Finally it was my turn to go in. I jumped when they called my name, this was not going to be easy or fun and I knew it. I get to the chair and the nurses were nice, luckily, however they still didnt make the situation any better. they started explaining how things were going to go and it freaked me the fuck out. saying that im just gonna be heavily sedated and then there gonna freeze my mouth.. O_O

According to them though I have an athletes heart...?? lol, I know me? of all people right.

Anyway, I kept forgeting to breath so the thing would beat like crazy which scared tthe shit out of me and also didnt help the situation. Then they put this huge breathing mask thing on my nose which was a little intimidating.

At this point im already panicing.. then the dentist comes in with a needle to put the IV in me and I start freaking out. The needle hurt like a bitch and the whole thing started to become over whelming!

 I started crying and I couldnt breath, Im sure if you were looking from above you would think this was some horror movie were they were trying to cut me open and shit against my will..

So they started to up the dosages on everything and one of the nurse was trying to calm me down/ hold me down.

It was just a disaster! I passed right out some time after that, and I was so sedated that I dont remember what happen when I woke up or how I got home...

Here I am when I got home.. haa

The first day was a little crazy. My face was numb, I had been trumatized, and swollowing pills was no easy task,  there was blood everywhere. I just remember being soooooo unbelieveably thirsty :( worst feeling ever.

Good thing I have my boyfriend. He was so sweet and tried to make me feel better <3

And now today wasnt that bad I guess... pfffffftttt what am I saying it was complete shit!

Im starving and still thirsty, im weak and to top it off.. I started vomitting... do you know how hard and painful it is to vomt when you just got your wisdom teeth out?!! Let me tell you, its no easy fucking task.

This whole wisdom teeth thing is going to kill me :'(

The Mashed Potatoe

Okay if you read my previous enrty you already know whats going on, if not...go read it because Im not explaining it again.
Last night I was trying to think of things that I would be able to eat
Here are the giude lines to which I must stick to so as to not cause any more pain then there is..

1. Must be in liguid or mushed form
2. Must be able to slide down my throat easily
3. Cant taste like shit! -very important..

So with those rules I set off -well I didnt really go anywhere, I just stayed put because I was feeling reallly dizzy and just made my brain go to work..:)- to look for something to eat because to be honest...bye this point I hadnt really eaten anything over the last 4 days so I needed to get something!!

I got the usual shit like ice cream and yogurt and apple sauce and then... MASHED POTATOES!
I made my mom make me some right that instant and holy balls! It was amazing.

Note to everyone: If you need something to eat and you cant move your jaw and you are sick of ice cream, mashed potatoes are the best thing to have.

They were delicious one, and two they were smooth and soft and creamy.....mmmmm like a dream.
You can have different flavors/kinds to like sweet potatoes... :O, dont even get me started on sweet potatoes! AND mix your apple sauce with themmmm!!! its yummy.

The mashed potatoe will be my life saver for the next 2 weeks

Not So Wise Wisdom Teeth...

So a few days ago my wisdom teeth decided they were gonna try and push there way out..
They were unsuccessful.
So they got the great idea to try and find a new way out...
I have a very tiny mouth and there is not much room in there for anything extra.
This means that instead of them just growing into my mouth and causing pressure on my teeth,
they are growing into the nerves in my jaw...and pushing on my teeth... WTF!
Honestly it is the most painful thing ever! -next to having your ear drum crack..which has happend to me...
Now I ended up going to an emergency dental clinic to get checked out and they said I needed to have surgery within 24-48 hours and prescribed me some T3's..
If you have read my blog previously you will already know that I do not take well to medicine...
Taking these was no exception.
They dont even get rid of all my pain.. they just slow my heart rate down and knock me out and I become all dizzy and shit... NOT FUN!!

So not only am I in extreme pain through out my whole face, the medicine that is supposed to give me some relief isnt even giving me relief...sigh :'(
...Oh..and the best part.... I cant get in to have surgery for another 13 days.... FUCK!

Someone just take me out back and shoot.

Sob Stories

So I have a bone to pick...actually its not really bone picking, its just something that I've noticed that REALLY is grinding my gears...
Has anyone else noticed that EVERYONE who is on any dancing, singing, or talent show all have the same god damn story..
"oh I grew up poor"
"I had a hard life"
"im lonely"
Blah, Blah, BLAH

Now am I being a little mean? Maybe
Am I being a little sour because I too have a shitty life like them and im not on TV talking about it....? Maybe
But I mean honestly... Hearing the same "rags to hopefully riches" story is soo not original anymore.
Its hard to feel sorry for someone or anything because the fucking world is just a wreck
There is no originality on this shit anymore.
So tragic.
Maybe its just me?  I dunno. Even if it is just me... Im fine with being a little selfish and ask for some fuckin new shit.
SOMEONE ROCK MY WORLD PLEASE!

Stairs, Stairs, and More Stairs

So my friend Ariffa and I went and ran some stairs last night..
This is our adventure,

First we had something to eat, I had a pb and plum flax sandwich -which made my stomach hurt, dont use plums before doing activites..bad idea.

Then I was dropped off at Eau Claire were I met up with Ariffa.
Then we set out looking for a kickass set of stairs.
We sorta got lost a bit thanks to construction and ended up taking a detour in a circle for no real reason.
But we power walked through it and got to the stairs!!

-power walking

-the stairss

Might I just add that it was hella hot out last night/day. weeuuuu!!

Then we got down to business, working them legs and getting out hearts pumpin!

-Go Ariffa!

-Go me!!

Now of course Ariffa kicked my ass cause shes so super duper athletic and shit, but I did pretty good in my books!

I ran that shit 4 times.. weeeuu!!

It was awesome.. 

Course, we still had our fun..

300 stairs later....

Lately I have not been okay with my weight and my body shape...
So I am jumping into action.. No more being lazy, no more eating shitty food.
I am kicking my own ass into high gear!
So today after having an amazing day in court -will explain what happen in a minute- I took that adrenaline anddddddd ran up and down 300 stairs...
Well I only had 10 stairs but I ran up and down them 30 times.. which = 300.. :)
FUCK YA IM AWESOME.
There is these double set of stairs near my house that have like a million stairs and I want to be able to run up and down them consistently for an hour.. not fast running but just consistently running up and down.. that is my goal... and I will reach it god dammit!
However, this is gonna take some time for sure because Im fucking DYING from only the 300 stairs.. good god.
I like literally can not walk right now.. its the worst. My poor jello legs.. waa :(

Now about court... IT WENT SO EFFING AWESMOE!!!!
We got the support we were expecting and my dad got dressed down HARD.
It was epic.
Things are gonna turn around now and its great!

Im Lacking...

So over the last little while I have noticed that I've been lacking in a lot of ways...
I lack being as fun as I know I am and can be..
I lack being as healthy as I usually am..
I lack motivation..
I just LACK.... I'm a lacker...
This is causing me to become lazy and boring and I feel like shit.. blehhhhhk :(
Only good thing happening right now is my boyfriend <3...but honestly I cant just become all creepy obsessive over him and do nothing but be crazy about him -thats not attractive.

Soooooo I think it is time to do some little consistant things.. like a mini challenge blog like the one I did that I never got to finish.. :(
BUT just so you know, I have been doing some of the stuff on that list that I could have added to it but they were done so far apart that it didnt seem worth it to put in on the blog.. so..ya.

I am gonna start doing shit again.. cause its now summer and I should be having the time of my life right!
Which is what I am going to do.. :)

p.s.
Stay tuned for an update this friday about how my life is gonna change!!!!!!!
If you read my other blog you know why I started blogging in the first place..
and that reason is why I am going to court this friday..things are about to change and its gonna be awesome!!
