thumper

I bought a bunny tonight. Her name is Thumper, she's a four month old dwarf cross, and she's some cute. But I'm not allowed to have her. Why? I don't know. I don't deserve a reason I guess because nobody would give me one. Not a real one anyways. "We're not allowed farm animals" -She's a rabbit for crying out loud! Not a horse! "The neighbors might complain" -over a fucking caged rabbit? They *really have issues if they complain over a rabbit who is in a cage, not in their gardens. "You cant take care of a pet! Look at your fish!" -the water is clean. the fish are fed, and obviously healthy.
I don't understand what the deal is over a dwarf rabbit. I didn't even get a shot at proving myself to them. All they care about is the fact that there are a couple clothes on the floor, and that i don't have my license yet. Every day it's the same thing. "Get your license. Get your license." its like a damned broken record that i can't turn off.
I love the fact that i am not mature and responsible enough to take care of a rabbit, but they want to get me a house. Because that's soo much easier to take care of than a rabbit. Ugh! I just want to cry somedays. It hurts my head.

Tuesdays With Morrie

I promise one of these days I will start blogging regularly. lol, I'm just not sure when that day willl be haha!
THis week I got my hands on the book "Tuesdays With Morrie" and all I can say is "wow!" It is an amazing book. SO beautifully written. Morrie shares some amazing words within the covers of this book. No other book has touched me so deeply as Tuesdays with Morrie did. I reccomend this book to anyone who wants a touching read, or just a good read in general. Never has a book made me think so much about life, and the future. I read other reviews on the book and noticed many people had to read the book in school, and I am very dissappointed I was not one of those people. If anybody would like to borrow Tuesdays with Morrie from me, let me know, I'll be happy to lend it to you.

Long Time No Blog

So it's been a long time since I've blogged lol Whoops. A lot has happened in my life in between blogs.
For starters, Kelsey kicked me out of the apartment June 1st because I was downtown with the rent instead of at the apartment and she wouldn't come get it. So I am now living back in New Brunswick with my parents, for the time being, anyway. I want so badly to be back on the Island with my friends. I miss them. My heart yearns to live there again, but for at least a year I am stuck here, saving my money so I can get my OWN place. Without a room-mate to kick me out. Now I am working on getting my damage deposit money back out of Kelsey, but she is being quite the bitch. Our numbers have been blocked so we can't call them, and I have been unsuccessful in getting ahold of either her or her mother at work. But I willwill get my money back out of her. But for the grace of God I will get it back. I will NOT let her tramp all over me any longer.
Now I am working in Walmart in Woodstock. I love my job, I really do, so I am going to try to hold on to this one haha then when I want to move back to PEI, I can just get a transfer to Charlottetown so I can live there, and have a job already :) sounds like a plan. One I hope will work out!
But with all the negativity that came from being kicked out, and struggling to get my money back, I still feel blessed. I still have my friends. I'm still blessed with a wonderful bunch of friends who still love me for who I am. This makes me very happy. But I miss them so, and can not wait to return to them.

Friday Night Joys

I'm enjoying my Friday night, and thought I would blog a little about it :D I am sitting here in my pastors (very comfy) chair, listening to some beautiful accordion playing by my friend Steffen, listening to his girlfriend Chelsea and my pastor Ian sing along, and just generally enjoying my night :D soon we will switch to the kitchen and enjoy some good food and good fellowship with friends, then we will retire back to the living room, or the "comfy chairs".
I love my "Friday Night Crew" we really are a special bunch. Friday nights for me are now full of laughter and joy for me =) what I did without my friends before, I don't know. But I know I will never trade these wonderful people for the WORLD! I love them all dearly <3

Life is Short

I recieved an email tonight that, in a nutshell, said that we should enjoy what we want while we are here on earth because who knows when our time will run out? and it got me thinking, sure, I havent lived long enough to have grey hairs, or to have laugh lines and wrinkles on my face. But I HAVE lived long enough to experience the pain of loosing a loved one, a favorite family member, a beloved friend, to know that life is short, and so many people do not understand that. So go on! Enjoy life while you can! Buy the hammock and sleep in it all afternoon! (just dont get a sunburn!) Eat that extra cookie at supper! dont make the bed in the morning! spend your day off with those you love instead of cleaning! Life is short so live it to the max :D

Stupid Choices

So many choices! :( on Saturday (Feb. 13) a very good friend of mine passed away in Hartland. His funeral is Wednesday, and I want so badly to go. Unfortunately, I have classes. I want so badly to tell Rick and/ or Wayne that I HAVE to go home, and work something out so I can submit my stories and NOT flunk out, but I also realize that I have to be here to do the stories. But I still want to go home. I feel in my heart that I need to be there, but it is my duty to be here. What is the right choice? Say my final goodbye to a dear friend, or miss two extra days of class? I need to be in both places at once.
Another choice I have to make is where I am going to be living for the summer. Charlottetown or Hartland. *Sigh. So many choices. I don't like being a grown up anymore. I'm ready to be a kid again, please. There are pros and cons to each place that I could stay. Home, well, I worked for 18 years to get out of there, but it's also in the country that I love so much and I can spend time with Grammie and all my friends and family there, but I have new friends here who mean just as much to me. And I miss them when I go away. *Sigh. All will be worked out in due time I suppose.

Another dream!

Another dream to write about!!!
Last night I dreamt that my room-mate, Kelsey and I had a huge fight, over what I don't know, but we just couldn't get along anymore, so I moved out into my house (which is not 'technically' mine in real life, since I aint bought it yet!). After a short while (maybe only a few hours) after moving in, my friend Mike got in contact with me and told me he had gone blind, and he knew that I would help him and take care of him, and he wanted to move in with me. I agreed and he came while I was out somwhere. WHen I entered the house, he was waiting for me in the kitchen with an open box of books that he had bought for me as a present for letting him live in my house. He turned to face me as though he wasn't blind, and tried to act as though he could see. I walked up to him and wrapped my arms around his waist, tightly hugging him. "I know you're blind." I said. He responded but I don't remember what he said, then he turned and started to pick the books up one by one from the box and tell me what they were. He passed me a Sherlock Holmes book after a bit, but couldn't remember what it was and after trying to figure it out, I hugged him again and told him what it was. Then, for some reason, I had to go see my father. I don't know why, whether he was in the hospital or what, but I HAD to go see him. Mike said it was ok, and went to a party with one of his friends.
Then I woke up. Don't cha hate waking up in the middle of a dream?

A good night :)

Tonight was a good night :) lol! My room-mate was going into Borden tonight, and I have family there, so I said I would go along and see them. First stop was at my great-aunt Rita's, but she was sleeping, so I moved on up the road to visit my Uncle Billy. My uncle Everette was also there, so I had a nice visit with the both of them, and aunt Barb made me a nice home cooked meal before I left. After leaving Billy's house, I went back to visit Rita. She's such a sweet old lady. She was very happy to see me, and I her. She reminds me of my Granny, her sister, a lady who I treasured dearly in the 12 years she was in my life.
After I spent time with Aunt Rita, I went down the street to visit my cousins Jimmy and Cathy. Dear sweet people they are too. Turns out Wednesday night is their crib night, and a couple of their friends come over and play cribbage with them. I was included in the game, and had a wonderful time playing with Cathy, Kenny and Donny. (jimmy sat out to help me 'cause I'm still a beginner) Turns out Donny (Noonan) grew up next door to my father, and recognized me as his daughter (or rather, as a Keough, then as his daughter) After studying my face a bit, he also determined that I looked like my Aunts Helen and Ruthie. To be honest, I cant see Helen in myself, but Ruthie I can. After playing a few rounds of crib with the lot of em, I decided I had better go now, and bid them goodnight.
Walking around the town while waiting for my room-mate, I walked down to my Granny's old house, which is for sale and I wish to buy, and copied down the address, and the number to call to learn what the price is on it. On the sign was a sticker saying "new price" which made me somewhat happy. Happy because the price is lower obviously! But it made me worry, if the house doesn't sell soon, will they tear it down? Or just keep it for sale? Either way, I intend to call and express my interest in the house and hopefully before long, I will be the owner of a house full of memories :)
