We've been back from North Bay for like 4 days now? I just haven't had any desire to blog, and really.. I still don't. Maybe it's time for another one of those blogging breaks we all love so much? I definitely need time to refocus on if I still want to blog, what I would really like to blog about.. if I still am blogging I definitely need a new layout, if not a new blog altogether. Definitely time to refresh and re-energize.
What's new in my life? Since I quit my job 2 months ago, I finally received a check for my 401k savings amount minus a hefty chunk of taxes (about 2k) and promptly spent over $800 of it on buying my hubby a laptop of his very own (which he loves, and I love because now we aren't fighting over using mine!), and after weeks and weeks of searching for a suitable new bicycle in my desired cheapy price range, I finally settled on one and bought it last night at Sport Chek (totally a Canadian store)! Yay! Now hubby and I can both go on lengthy bike rides with one of us hauling our son behind our bike in his jogging stroller, but I'm pretty sure my legs are going to hate me for buying a bike! Hopefully my new bike will get plenty of use before winter!
Well, after buying a new bike & helmet, and my hubby's new laptop, I'm feeling pretty broke. Next on our list of things to buy is a 42" or bigger flatscreen tv, but that's going to have to wait until next year =) I still need a whole new winter wardrobe ( Seriously, I don't have any winter clothing here!) and I'd really like to buy a decent blender to make myself Green Monster Smoothies for breakfast every morning.
Okay, that's all I have to blog about for now, time for a little blogging break. I'll update eventually on what's going on with the blog, and with my life. Bye for now!

Oh Hello!
If you follow my Twitter feed at all, you know that today I promised I would try as hard as I could to post about SOMETHING on this blog, It's been far too long! Right now I am watching Glee (I missed the first 30 minutes because I didn't realize it was on *OOPS!* but my DVR is recording it so I'll watch the first half afterwards!) and drinking some hot chocolate with marshmallows =) Yums.
I can't believe that it's almost Thanksgiving, can you?? I'm so looking forward to eating my turkey dinner in the next couple of days, I'm not looking forward to Black Friday, extended hours and general craziness for the next month or so at work, but that's just what I get for working in retail =P I love the happy feeling that comes with Christmas, the music, the decorations, the lights on the houses I'll see on my drive home from work (a lot of people around here already have their lights up and going!!) and spending quality time with my family and friends. I wish I didn't work in retail so that I could get a week or two off at Christmas to go visit my husband, my son and all those relatives up there. I'm not sure I'll get to see them for Christmas this year, that makes me very sad, and we'll see what we can do to change that. Here's hoping for the best!!
I'm still going to be busy for a while, working extra hours, trying to do my BeautiControl business when I have some spare time. I still adore my long hours of sleep, my quality time with friends. There are about a million movies coming out for Thanksgiving weekend and I pretty much want to see ALL of them, lol. One of my closest friends really, really wants to see Tangled (she may be 25, but she's a 6 year old at heart!) and it's one that I would like to see too.
I think I'll probably skip Post It Note Tuesday again this week, sorry for any of you that enjoy reading those posts!!

My Busy Schedule
I have been so incredibly busy these last few days and as a result I haven't been able to get on the computer very much at all... hence the lack of recent blog posts. I thought perhaps if I tell you what I have been up to that you would say, "oh my goodness! she has really been busy, i think i'll forgive her lack of updates!" Deal??
Friday: Worked 9:45-3:45, then went straight to a BeautiControl function (motivational speaker) in a city an hour away that lasted until 9:30ish, and got home about 11pm.
Saturday: Worked 11-5, then went to a friends house for 30 minutes to change clothes and eat snacks before meeting up with a big group of friends and going to Dave & Buster's to celebrate a birthday. Also required an hour commute, plus an hour++ time waiting for a table and playing games in their arcade... got home around 1:30am.
Today ( Sunday): Worked 2-8*, got off at 7:40 due to lack of customers. Came home, ate dinner, and am now on the computer when I should really be sleeping because.............
Tomorrow (Monday): I have the alarm set for 5AM so I can get showered, dressed, and have breakfast because I have BeautiControl training in city located an hour away, and must meet my ride in the morning and be on our way by 7:30am at the latest! That lasts until 1pm, I'll get back home around 4pm and then I have nothing going on the rest of the day. PHEW!!!
