....... so I thought I would invade my blog.
What am I going to write about .............. (Cassie has a think) not so sure really. Neil has been away for his third night tonight still up in Yukon. I've managed to clean all the apartment and guess what, it stays clean, wow! Life is well a little bit lifeless really without my husband. I'm not sad or upset or anything its just a bit odd coming home and he isn't here. Making meals for one isn't really that great and I don't really have any sort of a routine. I know lots and lots of husbands and wifes probally stay away from each other all the time with their jobs but its a new thing for us two.
When I was away for six days a few months ago I didn't really miss him, I did my job, went out for a meal and crashed out and went to sleep and did it all again the next day. Neil missed me and now I see why, there just seems to be nothing to do!
I've kept myself busy and with two days off in a row I was a little concern about being alone. I've made a new Canadian girlfriend from work she came round with a chick flick (Mean Girls) I know its an old film but I have never seen it. We had a chat, I showed her our wedding pictures and it was a great time.
Today was spent with two English ladies I've met up with off BE. I went to one of their houses this morning and the other met up with us at the same house after a hairdressers appointment. (I don't want to name names so sorry if its confusing) Its a great feeling making friends over here, something that has taken quite a while not anything to do with me its just a long drawn out process. Everyone is just living their own lives and have circles of friends and are not interested in making new ones sometimes its just about forcing yourselves onto people.
I always feel like I'm putting people out, and don't want to bother them but I'm just making this up in my head 90% of the time people are glad you called them. Mental note in my head to stop being such an idiot.
You'll laugh now when I tell you this, I was sat down last night watching Trading Spouces while sorting out all my jewellery into colour coded sections in my big jewellery box. That's all this sad girl has left to do, the apartment is spotless, I have no more washing to do and my ironing is all done, I could clean the oven .................. well on second thoughts ........... no I'll give that one a miss, I'm not that sad!
We need to get a barbecue, but not sure how to use one. Now that is even sadder than admitting the jewellery organising.
Oh I forgot to add the picture of the other critter we saw the other day. When we were out for a walk on Sunday on the boundries of Fort Edmonton Park. I have no idea what it is, and all Neil kept saying was "What are you taking a picture of?" I guess he couldn't see it.
I'll leave the entry here before I go on about what I'm having for tea, what time I'm going to bed and if there is any good telly on tonight, he he he good telly on Canadian t.v now that is a laugh.
This is how it looked when it didn't notice me, or it probally did.
This is it when I walked a little closer, just before it ran off. Not sure what it is though. |
