Another year has passed...

Haha so back again for a little bit maybe!
3 posts in 2008, and 3 posts in 2011. The last one being almost exactly 1 year ago. There's been some changes since then. Physically, I'm stronger, and can do about 15 push ups before collapsing, lost 12lbs, and 15 inches of hair. Emotionally, I'm weaker I guess, struggling a little bit with balancing a 40 hour work week, with 5 courses at MUN, all while trying to maintain a social life and a relationship. Work and School aren't so bad, it's the latter that's really doing me in. *shrugs*
What else... so that friendship ending that I talked about in my last post was a lot harder to deal with than I was expecting. I ended up losing another 13 year friendship because of it. In the end it was definitely for the best, but sometimes it still hurts. On the upside of that, the friends that are still in my life are fan-fucking-tastic. :) I don't know what I'd do without them.
Oh yeah and the tragic part of the year, I finally got my license and bought a car! Well that's not the tragic part, that happened when after only 10 days of having my car, I rear-ended someone on Topsail Road, and not just anyone, but an employee of my old Tim's location. Awesome. Only minor damages (one small crack in my bumper, nothing on her truck) and no injuries, although she did try to claim whiplash, but the Paramedics, and Police Officers knew she was full of shit.
Other than that what else... oh right my sister-in-law Jenn and Vincent's brother Edwin (Owen's parents) had another baby, a perfect little boy Reid on January 2nd. He's so awesome. And speaking of babies, EVERYONE IS FREAKING PREGNANT! Except me, thankfully! Vincent's 3 closest cousins are all expecting, One in June, One in July and One in August. And my older sister Sarah is also expecting a little girl on June 5th! :) Yay! A niece! My parents are over the moon excited since this is the first grandchild for them.
And that's only close family, not to mention the half dozen of Liz's family whose either had them within the last year or expecting this year. It's insane.
So as I've promised before and failed, I will make an honest attempt at updating this more often.
One idea I've had was to simply update with whatever I did that day, obviously not woke up/got ready/work/school etc, that's what facebook is for. But if I cook something yummy for dinner I'll post the recipe, or if a random customer does something entertaining I'll post the story. And now that I know how to add pictures from my phone I will occasionally be adding those as well.
So maybe, just maybe I'll keep it up.

I'm back :)

So after close to 3 years, I've decided to make a triumphant return to the world of blogs.
With my promotion, and with school likely in the near-ish future, I've entered kind of a funk. I have no particular problem with anything, Work is fine, Me and Vincent are doing good, and I'm looking forward to going back to school, but even though everything is fine, I don't feel happy, not sad either, kind of like I'm just going through the motions without emotion. (This is getting a little deep haha) Anyway, so everyone who I've talked to so far has given me the same advice "If you don't like it, then change it", So I've decided to break my work-home-eat-clean-sleep routine by getting back to my blog, among other things, just finding stuff to write about might just take up enough time to break the cycle :)
So in upcoming posts you can expect updates, random news facts and probably a recipe or two.
So now I leave you with...
