Hello again! So our busy time at the lodge has finally ended so we have been getting finished work a little earlier every night, which is really nice considering it was super crazy for about a week straight. The last big group we had here (a group of 17) were really awesome- I spent a lot of time around the campfire with them at nighttime. Although I had a great time getting to know them and staying up WAY too late, i'm kind of glad that they are gone so that I can catch up on my much needed sleep. I took an amazing 2hr nap this afternoon that definitely helped....slowly but surely i'll get back into my sleeping habits.
I am ashamed to admit that I have not only started reading twilight, but I am enjoying it. I am almost done the first book and it is such an easy read I can't help but like it.....i'm going to try to hammer through the remainder of the books I have here during the last 3 weeks. I have finally finished the first 3 seasons of Friday Night Lights and am looking forward to buying the 4th one once it come out at the end of august....if anyone is looking for an amazing show to watch, I totally suggest FNL- its filmed like a reality TV show but it isn't one, so its a little bit different in that sense. Overall, its about football and all the drama of a small southern town. Its awesome (and thers some pretty hot guys in there too) :)
Other than that boring news- theres not too much new with me. I am starting to wind down and realize how much i'm really going to miss the lodge once I am gone. I find myself appreciating the small moments and taking the time to realize how lucky I really am, and how this is such a great place for me right now. I especially love the family atmosphere and that there are always two children running around. If i'm ever in a bad mood, or just having a rough day I can usually have a conversation with brooke or blake and it'll make me feel better. Even just the simple things like asking Blake to help me count out the onions for my shore lunch boxes. I actually have no idea where I get my patience from, but I really look forward to the small moments that I get to spend with the kids. Even if it slows my day down by a couple of minutes, I love being able to have their full attention with counting or spelling or something like that. Its always at unexpected times when they are interested in those types of things too so it keeps my life interesting. Today, Brooke came down and showed me her very first loose tooth. It was so exciting because she is so pumped up about it- shes already made an envelope to put her tooth in once it falls out. She is the smartest 5 year old I've ever met and her teacher is going to be very happy to have her in the classroom.......I think I'm really gonna miss those kids when I'm gone in a few weeks :(
Right now I'm just sitting in the lodge waiting for a cake to bake. Tomorrow is jenns bday so I am making her a surprise cake (which wont be a surprise if she reads this, but I highly doubt she'll get here before tomorrow)! Battastoni mentioned to me in passing that we are going to go to the dump and fire off some guns so I think that is what I am looking forward too tonight. Other than that, i'm just hanging out and getting ready for another day at work tomorrow! I have a day off Friday so I am looking forward to sleeping in a bit and getting more paperwork done- hopefully the Internet is quick that day! lol
I got to talk to my sistah jenn on the phone tonight and wish her a happy trip- i'm excited that her adventure is FINALLY beginning because I feel like she's been talking about it forever. Its going to fly by, but if I know her she's going to be taking a tonne of pictures. Lol, she's going to love Europe and part of me is so jealous of her!!!
Anyways, I really think i'm rambling at this point. For those of you in the southern Ontario area, please let me know (email or facebook) when you are free so that I can plan some sort of get together during the short week that I am home. I would love to see as many people as possible and I feel that in order to make that happen there needs to be some mild planning beforehand.....
cheers :)
Sarah
