Taking a Trip

So since John is working so much I have decided that I am bored of this place and I want to get away. I have decided to take a little trip on my own. I am not telling you where I am going as of yet. I think I need a little me time. As long as it means I won't be stuck in a hotel room all day everyday. I have taked little trips around this city doing the touristy stuff. Though there is not a whole lot to see. Plus it is still pretty slushy here and I dont have the proper shoes to be walking around.

I hope to get a few good pictures along the way. I am not the best photographer, but I am trying. I like to take pictures of people more than pictures of things. I guess I will have to do a lot of self portraits. Though I will take Norbert (to those of whom dont know, Norbert is my travelling Gnome) with me, so there will be more pictures to add to his photo album when I get around to printing off his pictures. I really should get a little bit more patience and start scrapbooking or something. I think he would have a fantastic photo album if I was crafty like that.

Anyways, I guess I better get packed.

Picttures of Our Road Trip with Norbert the Gnome

I'm Back...

Well I took a little hiatus from this blogging thing. I really didn't think anyone was reading it so I didn't really feel like writing it. Though I have learned differently. Thanks to all those who have been keeping up with my boring thoughts. LOL!! I know since I have moved up here I have really realized how much I used to do. I never thought I did that much, but I know now that I was super busy. I don't know what to do with myself most days.

Today I met a lady who has her own spa here in town. I went to get my eyebrows done. She was super nice. We chatted about the fact that I am a massage therapist and am currently unemployed. She was so sweet to offer me a little deal. If there is anyone that is looking for more of a therapeutic massage she would call me and I could used her massage room. She only does relaxation massage as well as the waxing and spa stuff. She works in the upstairs of a gym. What a great place for me to start!! She took my number and told me she would call if someone was looking for one. YAY ME!!

I have also been sending out resumes for other little jobs. I am not sure if that is going well or not cause I just started. LOL!! I really hate selling myself. ( Not as in sexually!) I mean when you apply for jobs you are selling your image and what you can do. You have to prove yourself to people without actually doing a job. It is all about first impressions. I am too shy for that crap!! Most jobs I have ever had were offered to me and I didn't have to go look for them. Yea I know I am kinda lucky that way, but hey whatever works I guess.

Other than that I haven't been doing a whole lot. John and I got to take a road trip the other day. We took a drive down the Alaska Highway for a ways. It is really beautiful. And I got to see some Moose!! Yay!! I just love the fact that down south you have the watch for deer signs, here there aren't too many of those signs. There are watch for Moose and Buffalo signs here....It's crazy!!

Well I look forward to letting you know what I am up to. Let me know if you are reading!!
