Good Peoples and Good times

Last Friday my hubby and I had a little get together/shindig at our place.  We had amazing time with our friends and family.  That included drinking and playing Pictionary Man and lots of shots!! :P Let's just say we all had a good time....well, I don't know if everybody but I sure did.  The morning after wasn't that much fun as I had to get up after only 4 hours of sleep and go to Brampton....and then paint....all day looong....sweating. Then I had a repeat of the day on Sunday as well. 
The end of this story...neeeext.
I haven't been to Milestones in Whitby up until today.  My hubby's cousins, sister, aunts and mom went to Milestones today to send off Christina for her trip to Italy....Aaaah...jealous. :)  I ordered a portobello mushroom chicken and it was DEEEEalicious.  I pretty much inhaled it.  I also had a raspberry bellini and oh dear it was super yummy.  Basically I endulged like a fat kid and it was goooooood.  We had a really good time as per always.
In other news....i'm gassy and tired and I'm off to bed

Computer instructions needed

It took me FOREVER to get my pictures off my phone.  First off, I lost my cable AND I don't know where the box is with all the little doodats and whatsits that came with my phone.  SOOOO I had to figure out a way to get the pictures off of my phone and onto my computer without spending a small fortune on emailing them to myself.  I finally DID IT!  I can now update my little bloggie blog with all that I have been missing.  First off, let's start this with a pic of my next pedi and mani (oooooo don't I just sound so Real Housewifeish of Bville and such).

Cherry Toes! :D

I LOVE the nailpolish for my mani.  It is one of my favourites! As you can see I use all kinds of nailpolishes.  I don't discriminate.  The more the merrier.  My favourite has got to be Xtreme Wear and Rimmel nailpolish.  I write that because I know you care (ok, so maybe you don't but I'll write this pointless stuff because i can :))
My sister Joanna was here with her fiancee and we took a little day trip over to T.O. with our youngest sister Michelle.  It was really a lot of fun to go to the C.N. Tower again and do the whole shabang there. 

Sisters <3

Yeah, we're cool like that

Can you tell we're sisters?

<3

As you can see, we had a lot of fun.  I'm not going to bore you with all the pics here.  I can do that to you from here http://www.flickr.com/photos/missdynia Later we had a good little lunch over at a local pub that had a whole rustic, old Toronto feel to it and it was simply maaahvelous. I miss my sister very much and hopefully I can convince her to leave Kelowna B.C. to move here to Ontario....ok so maybe leaving Kelowna B.C. for Oshawa isn't really the best but at least her family is here.
During my busy period, I also managed to go to a trailer park....yes, yes it is all that you can think of.  Here is my interpretation of such a lovely place. 

Now now, don't be jelaous.  I know you want to be me.  Please, don't be alarmed, I am not drinking while prego.  It is just a little thing I do of expanding my stomach.  It hurts a little, makes my friends laugh and it makes my hubby cringe....all in all it's worth it.  Maybe the place was crowded and it made me appreciate my hubbs' parent's cottage that much more, but getting there was a nice little roadtrip.

 
Places like this it make me feel happy to be living in such a nice area.  I know this might not seem like much to some, but let me assure you, it is absolutely lovely.  Quiet, peaceful, rolly hill areas just five minutes away from my house.  We went to the trailer of my friend and her husband.

This is why we are friends

..and this is why we are friends.

...and this is why we are married :)

As you can see...we're a special kind of a bunch.  I am not your typical girly girl, and I do take lots of silly pictures but that is me and I wouldn't change that for the world.  I like me the way I am :D.
Speaking of girly girl stuff, I do enjoy that part of me as well.  I have a valid addiction to purses, accessories, shoes, clothes and make-up.  I recently cheered myself up by buying a Smashbox Lipgloss and some Avon make up.  I also managed to buy a snazzy little inflatable foot bath that folds and changes into a little carrying case.  LOVE IT!  It is indubiously the best addition to my little pedi bussiness. 

Pretty pink...I like

wait for it....

Ta-DAH!!!

Lately I have been absolutely addicted to Dawson's Creek.  I LOVE that show as I mentioned in a previous blog.  It might be due to the fact that it was in my youth that I watched the show, so maybe i reminesce when watching it.  I believe that it is also because the show is awesome-o.

I <3 Pacey

That's how much I love it.
Last weekend I attended a BBQ at Tia Kelly's house (yes, she is my hubby's Tia but now I shall make her mine too :)).  The occasion was her daughter's temporary homecoming from Thailand.  It was super fun!  The food, as always, was super delicious and I enjoyed spending quality time with the girls and the family.  Looking forward to more occasions where the family gets together :).
I believe I pretty much gave you the jist of everything that has been happening, and this has been one looooong blog.  I shall go to bed now because the headache I've been harboring all this time, is not letting up and I'm all out of Advil :(

Antsy in the pantsy

For the first time in a long time I am getting very restless when it comes to my job.  I feel like I am waiting on that "Dare to be great!" moment.  I am bursting out of my own skin because I want to do so many things.  I love the fact that I have great peeps looking out for me and allowing me to spread my wings a little bit.  What I mean by all this mumbo jumbo is that if they come upon an opportunity that would be perfect for me, they let me know about it.  My friend Tiffany of Librarianista was kind enough to let me know of a wicked opporunity to paint a mural at the local hospital's pediatrics centre.  I go into this fully aware that they just might NOT pick me to do this but it's great to take a chance and put yourself out there.  The first thing I did was ask my fellow artiste Victoria of The Tor Diaries if she would be so kind to lend her artistic abilities to help me out on this project.  I was extremely pleased when she said she loved the idea.  Today I had Victoria and Kyleman over at my casa to come up with a concept and a plan of action for this little doodle.  While Kyleman played black ops with the hubbs, Tory and I came up with an awesome idears together.  It was actually quite scary and at the same time a no brainer how the two of us were constantly thinking the same thing and totes on the same page.  I adore Tory and Kyleman and it was super fun to have them over.  Hopefully we can get together next time when I don't have to work the next morning and we can have a few brewskis together.  Once we come up with the concept drawing and all I will share our wonderful idears.  Up until then mum's the word.  Hope this weekend will be a stellar weekend to all.

My body a.k.a big wreck

Sometimes I am not too pleased with what my body does to me.  I have seasonal allergies.  Except they don't just happen in the summer..oh no.  You see, they happen all year round.  Now I must admit, they have gotten better ever since my visit to the specialist but when they hit me...wow.  I mean the inability to breathe and the snotty nose and the sinus headache it is all just wonderful...and by wonderful I mean not really.  Oh and I am also allergic to dogs and cats.  My hubbs and I had a English Setter for 2 whole days and my eye was swollen and red with little water pockets in it.  I know what you're thinking...mmm attractive.   
The other way that my body is so wonderful to me is my sensitive stomach.  I get amazing stomach aches from eating the wrong food, to drinking the wrong liquids, to stress.  Stress....kills my stomach.  I wonder what will happen if I have a kid.  I'm pretty sure I will be a wreck.
AAAAaaah and then...there's the headaches.  The debilitating headaches that I get and at times with something as simple as change in weather it's ridiculous.  Naturally I need to take lots of Advil when that happens, which in turn gives me one of my stomach aches...wonderful isn't it? :)
HOWEVER even though I have all these things happening to me I must admit I count my blessings by being born with all my appendages, generally healthy and all around a-okay.  These are my thoughts for today.

Sweet sweet pillow

Seriously this is ridiculous.  I am up and for no other good reason other than me doing my pedi and watching Dawson's Creek.  The sad thing is that I'm watching Dawson's Creek on DVD so it's not like I can't watch it tomorrow.  Oh...and yes.  I LOVE Dawson's Creek.  This show is my youth here in Canada.  The constant banter between Joey/Dawson/Pacey/Jen, their fantastically ridiculous mature and vast vocabulary, the love triangles....AAAaaah.  I am looking forward to the last episode where the right people end up together (ahem Pacey and Joey) 

Teehee <3

I had my eyebrows waxed today and I feel GREAT about it.  My dear Natasha ( my hubb's cousin) is responsible for making my crazy eyebrows somehow manageable.  I am excited for the make up session I have booked with her on Thursday. 
Keeping with my previous ever so exciting post I will show you my toesies!  After this I have to go to bed because I will most likely bitch and moan tomorrow about how little sleep I got. 
I bought new nail polish called Mint Sorbet by Xtreme Wear by Sally Hansen.  I tried the leopard spot look not really sure if I love the way I did it but here it is.

Purrr...grrr

umm...scuse me?

I apologize if my grammar is off but I've been going on little to no sleep lately and I think I would sound like a broken record if I said, yet again, how busy I find myself.  I feel like I am constantly cleaning, organizing, being Suzy Homemaker and all around awesome me.  I wouldn't be able to recall particulars too much but I'll give you a not so brief accout of what happened in the past little while.  I gave myself a new pedi and I have my co-worker Candice to thank for the idea.



Meow...

 I used Viva Pink from Avon (did I mention I love Avon? :)) and Black out from Sally Hanson Xtreme Wear.  I am addicted to doing my nails.  I think I'm going to get a few more tomorrow!  This makes me a little too excited. 
My BFF Lucia came down and her and I along with my Hubbs and couple friends went to Brooklin Fair.  Aaaah, the rides, the food....the carnies...the hillbillies.  There was meat sold by the foot, pickles on the stick and ever delicious FUNNEL CAKES!!!!! Who doesn't like Funnel cakes?  People with no tasted buds?  I went on a total of one ride and that was more than enough for me.  I refused to go on any rides that I knew for certainty would make me throw up just a little in my mouth while on them.  Later we waited on Leila to suit up and become super cop lady to man the beer tent.  After standing in the line up for a total of 15 minutes we decided we were too old for these shenenigans and decided to go home.  All in all it was good times.

Monkey see..Monkey do

Following that there was the Bowmanville Ribfest.  YUM!  I apologize to the PETA/Vegetarian/Vegan lovers...I really do, but they were yummy.  The ribs, pulled pork, coleslaw AND blooming onion all were superb.  I almost got tempted to get a fried mars bar but I chose to opt out of the heart attack for that day.  I did however get a funnel cake and it was delicious!  I didn't go on any rides or play any games but that was a-okay by me.  I enjoyed myself and now I'm looking forward to doing it all over again at the Oshawa Ribfest. 
I am currently reading the second book of HP saga.  This challenge is coming along very slowly but hopefully I can pull a few all nighters and get it all done by the time the movie comes out.  Recently I haven't even had an iota of time to read and the moment i get to read a book I fall asleep.  It's been crazy busy lately.  I also want to finish reading "Bossypants" which is absolutely hillarious.  Tina Fay is THE MAN.  I highly recommend reading it.  I pretty much laugh with every single turn of the page. 

I also have done some pedicures for people and hopefully will do some more in the future.  I have an appointment with a few girls and hopefully I can document it so I can post all the pretty toes on here.  Another great thing is that it's fiesta week!!! :)  The parade was yesterday and it started a whole week of super-fantastic-awesome food.  Hopefully I can keep up with the writing a bit more. :)
