Too much of a good thing is just too much.

So, to catch you all up I have a job. I am currently working at Kelsey's Restaurant. Right now I'm a hostess but I'm working my way up to a serving position. This is hard for me to do, not because the job is hard, but because I'm use to being a server. But all is good. However, the day I got this job I was also offered a part time postion at Ricki's clothing store. But that's not enough you see because I was also offered a casual position at Bootlegger. That's right people, 3 jobs. I decided not to take the second two jobs, even though they were both willing to work around Kelsey's and eachother(they're a joint company). The reason I didn't take those two as well was because I'm working a lot...and a lot of split shifts. It's hard to work around that. So that's the news on that.
Just yesterday I thought I would do a nice thing and bring home some groceries. When I got home though my dad had the same thought. Not only did we both bring home groceries but we bought the same groceries. Not even kidding people. It was scary and funny all at the same time. All I can say is that we'll be eating healthy for the next little while so if you're wanting junk....you'll have to bring your own. I love junk though...don't get me wrong...but I'm starting to eat really good food again. But have you tried those new Sunchips...Salsa. Let me tell you..if you haven't tried them yet you haven't even started to live. Ok, that was a little intense. Let's try that again. If you haven't tried Salsa Sunchips you haven't even started to live. Ok there it is again...so it must be true. Let's just go with it.
Until next time. Peace Out

I'm a Flasher!!!

Since I've been in Kelowna I have traumatized my brother in more ways than one. The first time I was sitting in my room talking on the phone. How is this traumatizing you ask? Well, if you've ever heard me talk then you know...just kidding. I actually forgot that I now live with other people. From having lived by myself for the last 5 years I have forgotten a few things. One of these things would be closing the door when you're getting ready to change. So back to the story. I was talking on the phone and decided that I would be more comfy in my pj's. But as this thought was going through my head I wasn't only talking on the phone but my brother was approaching my room. I talked to him for a few minutes and then he turned and walked away...I then started to act on my subconscience thought of changing my shirt but Cameron turned back around and started heading into my room again....just as he entered he said something to me, I responded and then started to....well you know...he was like, Michelle...you can't just do that. heehee...oops. Traumatization #1 has now been completed.
The second time I got him, well actually it didn't traumatize him as much as it did his girlfriend. I have this thing about doing hand checks. So I randomly decide when I'm going to enter into his room and yell out..."Hand Check" in which they need to respond by holding up their hands and then I leave. Not so bad...that's what big sisters are for right? What I didn't know though was that Cameron had just told her about this little thing that I do and she just dismissed the thought as Cameron telling lies. Well when I did a hand check not five minutes after he told her she was in shock. I entered into the room...yelled hand check..my brother right away lifted his hands....Amber however did not. I again yelled...hand check in which she responded accordingly. Traumatization #2 is now complete.
The third time I got him was actually last night. This was a complete accident and I embarassed myself more than anything else. I was talking on the phone again while sitting in the living room with my brother. I was wearing a skirt and yes I talk with my hands a lot. I don't know what my skirt got caught on but suddenly it was attached to my hand and my hand was in the air. That's right, I flipped up my skirt in front of my brother. He was like, ahh Michelle. That's when I started laughing...the awkward laugh and my friend Miguel was talking to me both times this flashing my brother thing came up. He was like, Michelle...stop flashing your bro. It was really funny...maybe you had to be there....Anyways, traumatization #3 is complete.
The fourth time I got him was again last night. I did another hand check except this time was at an awkward time....for all of us. I entered into the room...yelled out hand check...and realized that they had the door closed for a good reason...they were kissing. So I quickly exited and went downstairs and played with my cat. We were playing hide and seek and I entered into my brother's room to hide...again they were all awkward but I was just hiding. I left his room and they soon left after. She actually thanked me for breaking them apart because she was about to be late for curfew. I was like, oops...sorry..hee hee. I'm the meanest big sister ever. Traumatization #4 is complete.
That's all the scoop I've got for you today. Now look at your brother's and sister's with gratitude that they don't do this to you! Until next time.

Moving Part 2

Wow, ok so Dawn totally called it and I didn't take any pictures of the car before or after the unloading process. Sorry everyone. Just imagine this: Everything was packed tight. A 5 by 8 trailor wasn't enough to hold everything. I still have a car load back in Manitoba at my mom's home. But enough about that. We covered all that stuff already...let's move on to what it's been like since I unpacked the car. The unpacking process only took less than an hour to do. It was so simple. My sister had come up to Kelowna with her kids. Once they were in bed we headed out to the car to unload it. Ok, so we procrastinated a little. We were waiting for my brother to get home to help out but once 11pm hit we lost our patience and did it ourselves. We had my friend Mike there to help out too. So we started. It was so much fun. My sister and I just laughed the whole time. What about you ask? Does it matter. It could have been a butterfly and we would find it funny. When we're together all we do is laugh. I'll give you an example of what made us laugh really hard. We had taken most of the stuff off the top part so my dresser that was laying flat on my couch was exposed. I turned to Dawn and said look at this...then I plastered myself ontop of the dresser, then I said, it's my clothes. Yay!! She just started laughing because the couch was in the way of me actually sliding across the dresser so it stopped me short. She thought it looked so funny so for the rest of the unpacking time she kept imitating what I had done. I don't know if Mike was getting annoyed by us because of our goofing off and not really doing anything but laugh...whatever. It was so much fun.
The next morning I went down to the Uhaul return place at about 7. Well the sign said it doesn't open until 8. So I went home. I headed back for 8 and once I got there nobody was around. So I sat down and waited. And I waited. And I waited. It's a really good thing I can read because while I was sitting there I looked up at the door and it said on Saturday's you need an appointment. So I went home and looked up the number to call. Well, wouldn't you know it when I called he told me that they open at 9 and if I'm dropping off I don't need an appointment. So after my third trip down there they took the thing from me. I was so excited to back up out of the parking spot without something being attached to the back of my car. I also have the back window again!!! Yippee!!! So exciting in my world.
For the rest of the day I hung out with Dawn(my sister), Gabriel(my nephew) , Grace(my niece) and Mike. That was on Saturday...I can't remember what we did...oh yes it just came back to me....lucky for you! Dawn and I and the G's went to Walmart and got some stuff..(i.e. bath stuff) and then we rented the first season of Grey's Anatomy...I love that show. We watched the first 5 episodes...so awesum. While we watched we drank Screamers. For those of you who don't know what that is I'll describe it but you must make your way to Kelowna to try one for yourself. They are heaven in in cup. You have access to both a slurpee machine with your choice of slurpee flavor and an icecream machine. Your choice of vanilla, twist or chocolate. Then you create your own...I love the layer look. I put in a little icecream, followed by a little slurpee followed by a little icecream....and it goes on and on...I'm sure you get the picture. It tastes so good. I like that you get to choose your own pattern. It makes me smile. My favorite combination is Root Beer slurpee with chocolate ice cream. It sounds disgusting but it tastes incredible. You are all invited out to visit me and I will personally take you down to the station and introduce you properly to a little piece of heaven. Yum!
Until next time.
