Whirlwind Week

We are currently in our 4th "home" for the 

week. It has probably been the longest week of my 

life. It feels like an eternity since last weekend. 

We had planned on staying between

my parents and Rhys' parents until our

house was built but because our house

got delayed, it is time to reevaluate our options.

We certainly needed a bit of space to just breathe

and do our own thing so this week we uprooted

and moved to a hotel. After 2 days there, it wasn't working

so off to a different hotel which was really nice.

The Acclaim hotel near the airport was 

delightful. Lucky for us, our friends Shandell

and Kent were off to Maui for a week so 

they offered us their house which

came to crash this morning. It's 

definitely been a weird week, we've been 

hauling our own bedding around which has been a 

lifesaver. I'm not exactly the best sleeper in the 

world so having our own sheets, pillows, and duvet,

has been much easier to adjust to all the different 

"homes" we've had. 

I sure feel lucky to have friends that help me out

when I'm in a pinch! 

Why you so nasty?

I definitely needed a good laugh yesterday

and thanks to Instagram- I got my

laugh. For whatever reason this was the funniest

thing I had seen in so long. 

Ahhhh. 

No Fizz February

Since we've been bunking with other people,

our pop consumption has been 

OUTRAGEOUS.

I decided that I needed to do something 

drastic to kick off a little detox.

No pop for February includes juice and

sports drinks. That basically leaves tea, coffee, 

and water. I have a feeling I'm going to need 

to take out stocks on Perrier. 

Gratitude

It always amazes me that life naturally

gives you a boost when you least expect it.

On Tuesday morning @ 0400, I 

REALLY did not want to drive 

to my parents but by the time I reached 

Lethbridge, the sky was opening up into the 

most beautiful sunrise. When I turned down the road

the leads to the farm, I actually had to stop.

I felt so grateful to have the sight that some

aren't so fortunate to have in order

 to witness such a wonderful morning.
