Look on a map...

...and see how far it is from Lethbridge, AB to Swift Current, SK....
I drove that from 2am until about 7am...

bring on the red bull


and yes... my family drove (in mum's civic) to Winnipeg. Me, Jackie, Garry and my mother. HAHA.. what a gong show.

Anways, thanks to my midnight driving, we got here monday evening...and alive...kinda.

I saw a bear though...and deers...and foxes and elks...AND A WOLF...but it was dead...and I killed some small animals while driving, which makes up for the NOTHING i killed in Surrey. Anywas, we got here and it's bezautiful...but I'm allergic to Canola flowers...adn there are tons here so I'm sniffling.

On a total serious note though, this place is where my heart is. Not that I would move here...but all my family on my mum's side is here...including my Baba Annie (Great Grandma)
It was great to see her again, as it might be the last time. She'll be 95 in February...and drinks like a fish! Anyways, me and her sat on her front steps, had a beer and gossipped about family. She gave me so much life advice...also telling me to "get on it" with finding a husband...haha..thanks baba. Really though, she's an amazing woman. She has been through so much in her life and it's absolutly facinating to hear her stories. Wow. Also, she has such a sense of humor! She's totally hilarious. I love her with my whole heart! It was just really cool to see where I come from and to see some heritage. If I'm anything like her when (if) Im that old, I'll be so happy. As old and wrinkly as she is, she has this beautiful glow in her.Her eyes are soooo blue and sparkly and she has a gorgeous smile. I'm so proud that she is my background.
Well baba, I guess I'll get on it ;)

my day tomorrow

sitting on the porch...


...sunbathing...


...with a 22...


...waiting for small, unsuspecting animals to pass me by...


...except they won't "pass" me....

...they'll be dead.

If you haven't noticed...

I gave my blog a facelift...

I'll try to keep more "on top" of this blog thing....it's been a while, so to get back in the groove of things might take a while... we'll see

Oh....so I thought that I wouldn't get a sunburn here because Australia was all hardcore withtheir 'no o zone' and such...anyways, thats a lie..

aloe vera? My new best friend.

Shannon...consider yourself forked....happy late bday

Happy 50th Old Man.

Well...my dad turned 50. My mum and sister showed up at the party making it the first time in like 5 years we've all been together...and the first time in 13 years that my mum came to Surrey to hang out with all the people she used to be best friends with. Fun times. So yeah. This is photo evidence I guess...
