    Wow... been a long time since I have been here to write...

    Hello to those that may stop by thinking I will emerge again... heehee..  You guys rock and you know who you are!  Hello to those that may be stopping by for the first time!
    I used to have a very active space with tons of info, and blogs etc.  I have been away from it for a long time now.. last summer.  I am thinking of starting it up again...    I have kinda missed it :)  This whole "live" thing is a little confusing to me though.. lol
    Anyways... 
    I added pics of me going blonde..  there I am.  No more redhead and I am going to stay blonde for a long time I think.  I am actualy thinking of getting extensions as I am not sure I like the length now that we had to cut off so much due to processing damage! lol.  It took months and months to get here and my hair has paid.  I am impatient to wait for natural growth..  heehee.
    I think my first real new blog will be about my recent trip to Toronto to see my family and friends...  it was incredible.  I will do that this weekend....  until then..
     here I am trying to bring sexy back...   *curtsy*   hahaha
    July 10

    going forward..

     
    I know it's been over a week since I updated.  Sorry.  And I am sorry to say this again but .. "due to some personal things going on, I will not be updating regularly".  I hope to be back "live" again in a couple weeks - month.   My son needs me right now...  and I need to be focused on that.
     
    Take care and I will visit you all soon..

    Ok.. that was good.. :)  I needed those giggles to start my week.  I had such a busy weekend.  3 housewarming parties and a concert.  I am soooo tired today!  I did manage to go to the beach yesterday for a bit and just laze in the shade by the water and try and cool off.  It was 31 here yesterday which is very warm for Victoria.  Normally we sit at about 25/26.  I hate it when it's so hot that you hate being in the sun.  I like it manageable and a bit of a summer breeze all the time.  I put my order in so not sure what happened!  lol - It is 31 again today too... blah...  I am glad I am at work with the air conditioning.. lol

     

    Stephanie is now living in Hamilton, Ontario with her sister Tasha.  Tasha took her to her youth church yesterday and Stephanie told me on the phone that she felt "moved" and that she is going to another youth church group meeting on Tuesday night.  She is overall happy but missing Justin.  I told her to look at the bright side which is that he is only 2 hours away now and not 3000 miles.  I believe this experience and living with her sister Tasha is definately a great thing for her.  She is learning about herself and setting goals and mostly I hope she is thinking about getting her education again. 

     

    I have to figure out this week about moving. I will either have to give my notice or get a roomate.  I am going to call my landlord today and discuss with him. I think I would rather move into a 1 bedroom apartment on my own then have a roomate, but there are a couple options that sound ok.  I could get another international student like I did before which is a very cool experience both culturally for me and for them.  Also, the BC football league is getting underway and their players which are all between the ages of 18 - 22, need 4 months accomodation.  There are 40 of them currently needing accomodations coming to the city this week and next. 

    Anyways, I HAVE to figure it out this week.

     

    Shout out to my mom... love you! 

     

    Hope everyone had a great weekend!  *curtsy*

    IIIIIIII neeeeeed Serenity..

     
    So I have never really been into heavy metal rock. I mean I appreciate some of it and totally love Metallica.. but I have never really listened to it for long periods of time.  About 6 weeks ago a buddy of mine introduced me to GodSmack. I mean I knew who they were etc.. but never really got into them or anything.  Sooooooo...  he gives me their DVD, the Faceless CD, GodSMack IV and the accoustic version.  He just told me  "just listen..close your eyes and listen the first time" then get up and get down with your bad self the 2nd time....
    Well it wasnt long before I was thrashing around my room TOTALLY loving the sound of Sully Ernas voice  and the tribal drum solo on the DVD - I was sold big time!  I just fell into the songs.  He is PHENOMONAL in my books.. and he was what drew me into this ridicuolsly engery pumping hard rock groove.  I love almost every song on both CDs but am very partial now to quite a few of them. My daugher liked them alot too :)  LOVE THE TRIBAL DueL DRUMMING !!!!!!
     
    I like these 3 SONGS  particularly...
     
     " I am doing the best that I can, I am doing the best I ever did, NOw FCKN go   awwway"
     

     
    *IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII  Just neeeed to Realign"
     
     

     
     
     
     
    *I have come face to face with the enemies!!!!!*
     
    I ROCKED OUT LIKE A GIRL WITH HER COCK OUt! HAHAHAHAHA
     

    Was it was just pandamondium too!! CRAZY mosh pit and people passing overhead and everyone pushing forward.   I was front row floors right under Sully's mic!!!!!  oh my god  *fans self*  Anyways, I felt 18 again and I rocked our hard and you would all be proud of me!!! enoy some of the pics :)
     
    YEAAAAAAAAAH GODSMACK!!!
     
    http://www.godsmackfanclub.com/gs-art.php
     
     
    I don't believe I have a voice anymore..  all I have is rasp. And I have 2 housewarming parties to go to tomorrow and one is at my bosses.  And I am sitting here totally buzzed out on pot smoke inhaled just from the crowd in the front rows..   just standing.. I didn't have to ask for a toke my head was SURROUNDED in it.  It's all you were breathing in.  LOL 
    God I am soooooooooooo energized right now!!  If I wasn't afraid of the dark I would go for a walk! HAHHA!
     
    I have the munchies now! HAHAHAHAHA..
     
    Good night my pretties... enjoy the pics!!

    This and That.. why you ask?

    Todays Thought:  I think I will move into a new place.  I LOVE my place but I really don't need a 2 bedroom place living on my own. I could save myself $300 a month moving into a 1 bedroom place.  Maybe into an apartment building with a pool so I can swim after work everyday.  That would be nice.  So yeah.. that's my thought today.  Moving would signify my "independance" so to speak.  I almost feel 18 again!  HA!
     
    and now for the why?.....
     

     

    Why, Why, Why

     

    Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?

     

    Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there is not enough?

    Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

    Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

    Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

    Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

    Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

    Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

    Whose idea was it to p ut an "S" in the word "lisp"?

    If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

    Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

    Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

    Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

    Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?


    Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?

    How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

    When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, "It's all right?" Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, "That hurt, you stupid idiot?"


    Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

    In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

    How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

    And my FAVORITE...... The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.

    This is me at the beach today watching some guys get ready to go "flying" :)  It was pretty cool.  This couple pulled over to talk to me and ask me about the bike etc. THey were driving this sweeeeeeet convertible.  Anyways, I was telling them about the bike and yadda yadda and then she said "ooooh you have to let me take your picture with your new bike then!!"  heehee.   And so here it is....

    They actually both ended up flying high and it was awesome to watch.  My phone died though so I couldn't get anymore shots.. lol.  The one guy says that he does it every weekend there and if I wanted a lesson or two he would give them to me and let me use his kite :)  WOOT!  THAT would be fabulous!! *dance*.  I am going to go bug him again next weekend!  lol

    Stephanie seems very happy still and enjoying herself. SHe is "madly in love" and loving life..   *hurl* - oh to be 17 again... LOL

    I spent the afternoon and early evening with Matthew today as Julie and Doug were in a golf tournament.  I had a blast with him.  We drove around and listened to music because he LOVES music and will stop doing anything in a split second if he hears tunes.. lol.  Then he dances it up for hours.. hahahaha. He is the cutest little guy and I just squeeeeeeze him everytime I am with him.  We laugh a lot together and he always reminds me of the simple little pleasures we take for granted every day.  Today we learnt about sticking our noses to deep into the roses..hahahaha...  cause then "auntie shelley" will tickle his face with it until he bursts out giggling soooo hard..  lovin it!  Here he is saying hello to my phone today..  heehee

    Work has been VERY busy but we are working on a lot of initiatives as well as trying to catch up to all the Sarbanes Oxley requirements that exist because of the Enron scandle.  We are in year end mode which means full steam ahead.. for some.. 7 days a week.  Because it is our first year end as a publicly held company, we will be audited very deeply to ensure we are in total compliance with all of our financial reporting. And since I am the Executive Assistant to the Vice President of Finance....  I AM VERY BUSY!!

    It's all good though..  I am loving it..

    Right now we have a contest going on for those in accounting.  For each completed signed off reconcilliation they do, their name is entered into a draw.  There are 2 trips, $100 gift certificate to one of the shopping centres, and a dinner for 2 at the Ocean Point Resort.  Niiiiiiiice.  The trips are; 1. Trip for 2 to Whistler for 4 days, 3 nights including accomodation, ferry and mileage expenses, $200 spending, and the time off work! and the second one is to a beautiful ocean side Resort called Coopers Cove that isn't too far from here, but far enough that you totally feel as though you are isolated.  Everyone is pretty pumped about it.


    ok I am grumpy hungry...  and that's never good for anyone..  lol.  Hope everyone has had a fabulous week!

    Introducing Leah Walker

    Congratulations Leah & Hamish!!!
     
    Leah and Hamish ~ June 3, 2006
       
    100_3810.jpg
     
    This is my girl Leah.. doesn't she look like a little princess? Julie and I have spent most of the weekend  shopping and partying for her wedding!!  They got married down at Saxe Point right on the oceanside and it was beautiful.  (I have loaded a wedding album so go have a look at all the pictures).  They were married oceanside and then we celebrated their wedding at the Fleet Club down on the Navy Base.  The reception rooms at the Fleet are nice and big and full walls of window overlooking the bay.  You can see in the pictures where there were sailboats and a cruise ship right behind us as they were getting married and then some great pics on the deck at the club of the wedding party. 
    I am so happy for them.  Leah deserves a good man and I wish them all the best in their life....  God bless your marriage...

    Stephanie seems to be doing well and appears very happy...  I have to share with you a comment she left me on my last blog.... it was pretty sweet :)
     
    hey mommy its steph
    i just read that entry and it brought tears to my eyes...
    i love you so much and im going to miss you more than you will ever know
    i hope your proud of me mom
    i really hope at the end of the day your proud of me for something..
    even if its just being good at sewing haha
    im very much in love and its not with some "ganster"
    hahaha hes a real guy with real goals amibitions and morals
    and he treats me like a princess
    but most importantly hes teaching me the importance of loving myself
    and spending everyday reminding me of how amazing he thinks i am
    and i have never been happier or felt more grown up
    if someone asked me what success was i would say it was my mother
    through everything you have held your head so high
    even when it probably felt like your shoulders would crumple
    i love you mom
    and i'll always be your baby
     

     
    Barry of Bear's Den is in town and we were going to grab a coffee but our timing was all off and we only had pretty much one day to work with so it just didnt work.. lol.  AND, "The Unknown Poet" is in town this week too so hopefully we will get the chance to have a coffee...  Victoria is busy this week.  Almost enough to have an official "spaces meet"...   Hahahahahaha

    TGIF... or what

    Wow..  I haven't been here since Mother's Day.  My life has been crazy for the last couple weeks with a lot of things.  I got the bike and am exstatic about that.  I did have a mishap though...  I was taking a corner and a guy turning onto the road I was on sprung out and cut me right off and I had nowhere to go but into him.... or into the curb *sigh*.  The bike is fine..  just had to replace the peg bolt cause the peg took the curb out.. blah.  Oh .. and  a mirror - which I have already replaced.  It was me that was dealt the worst of it..
     
    The bike hit the sidewalk sideways and up and over onto the "grassy knoll" .. and quietly came to rest on its side.  As for me, I was only a second or two away from slamming into a cement barrier on my right side when I realized what was about to happen and then BAM...  I hit it..   and man did my hip hurt.  This guy that was behind me came running over to see if I was ok and he reached down to give me a hand getting up.  When I took his hand and tried to get up I knew something was wrong but the adrenaline pumping through my body stopped me from really feeling the bad pain..   but I knew it was there.  Anyways, as it turns out, I dislocated my hip.  When he pulled me to get up we both heard this loud popping sound and simultaneously I felt it pop back into place and the pain just pierced my brain.  It was painful... but also relief from a momentary blinding pain that had just took hold.   It's all good now..  I am fine.  My hip hurt me for about 5 days and I have some blue bruises up and down my right side.. lol...but I am a tough girl and all I gotz to say is..   "Is that all you got!!!"   Just kidding..  I am humbled :)  I recieved a rude awakening and a jolt in memory about how drivers of other vehicles really don't see motorcycles..   That defensive driving course I took is all coming back to me now..  heehee..   day by day as my muscles and bones heel !  HA! - I am good to go again.. and I thank god for his humble reminder of the vulnerability we ride with when were on the road..    The bike barely got a scratch.. THANK GOD again!  heehee.  I didn't tell my boss what happened because I didn't want them to worry...  the bike is fine so the rest is private to me.  I don't think that is awful? lol
     
    So in the midst of that...  I got a flu.. and I had a flu shot this year so that pissed me off even more.  So I was violently vomitting while holding my hip in place because coughing, sneezing.. and umm..  throwing up.. really really hurt for a few days there!  *grin*.  
     
    AND WHILE IN THE MIDST OF ALL THAT.................    Stephanie informed me she was moving to Ontario to live with her sister Tasha..  was leaving in 2 days..   oh and by the way.. first she is heading to New York to spend 2 - 3 weeks with this guy Justin that she met last summer while he was here in Victoria for a couple months with family!!   WHAT I say..   WHAT!?!?!??!    Yep...  "he bought me a plane ticket and I leave in 2 days"..    WHAT!?!??!!??!  ..........   Ok....  breathe shelley breathe...  *heart POUNDS inside my ears*..   *sweat crosses my forhead*..   *breathe Shelley breathe*..
     
    She is now gone....  She flew out on Wednesday and is currently in Fredonia New York with Justin.  *grabs chest*.....I thought I was going to pass out as I walked away from her at the airport.   There she goes.. 
    OH MY GOD..  it was horrible.  I drove home and hugged the toilet for another day..
    She did take Justin to Hamilton, Ontario which is right across the border from Buffalo, NY.  Fredonia isn't that far away from there, to meet her sister Tasha.  It was a condition.  She had to take this guy to Hamilton to meet Tasha so that Tasha could get a feel for him and then would make the decision about allowing her to cross the border with him.  You have to understand... she was going to do this with or without me ... I had no choice but to figure out the best way to get through it and try and look out for her as much as I could.  There was no stopping her.  So, they met Tasha and she phoned me and said they were there with her and that he seemed very nice and very polite and "very safe".   I had spoken to him on the phone and through email as well and he did present himself very well to me.  He did sound like he truly understood my feelings and why I would feel the way I did.. etc etc.  I made the call to just get through it..  like I said.
    So she is there now.  I spoke to her tonight and she sounded happy and peaceful.  They were just "laying around watching friends and thinking about what to make for dinner".  He is 19... going to business college and manages a little take out place.  He sounds like he has goals and ambitions and is not at all "thuggish" like I feared.... lol.   So I am breathing again and just choosing to think the best and take one day at a time.  My house is very quiet all of a sudden ....
     
    So there you have it... once again... another chapter in my life...  I feel naked right now .. like I usually do after I write private stuff about my life down in here.  But then I stop typing and somehow I feel lighter.  So thank you for caring enough to still be reading at this point ..  You rock

    I saw this and I loved it...

    Mothers

     

    Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful strong mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, step-moms, adoptive moms...    to any woman who finds herself providing the love of a mother to child.. 

     

    mothersdayblinkie.gif

     

    I have been blessed to have the most amazing, loving, strong, supportive, nurturing mother in the world...

    she is my hero..

    I love you mom!!!!!!!

     

    MomandI.jpg

     
    My hero.. 
     
     

    Before I was myself you made me, me
    With love and patience, discipline and tears,
    Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

    Allowing me to sail upon my sea,
    Though well within the headlands of your fears.
    Before I was myself you made me, me

    With dreams enough of what I was to be
    And hopes that would be sculpted by the years,

    Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

    Relinquishing your powers gradually
    To let me shape myself among my peers.
    Before I was myself you made me, me,

    And being good and wise, you gracefully
    As dancers when the last sweet cadence nears
    Bit by bit stepped back to set me free.

    For love inspires learning naturally:
    The mind assents to what the heart reveres.
    And so it was through love you made me, me
    By slowly stepping back to set me free.

    Nicholas Gordon

    It takes a Mother's Love
    to make a house a home,
    A place to be remembered,
    no matter where we roam.

    It takes a Mother's Patience,
    to bring a child up right,
    And her Courage and her Cheerfulness
    to make a dark day bright.

    It takes a Mother's Thoughtfulness
    to mend the heart's deep "hurts,"
    And her Skill and her Endurance
    to mend little socks and shirts.

    It takes a Mother's Kindness
    to forgive us when we err,
    To sympathize in trouble
    and bow her head in prayer.

    It takes a Mother's Wisdom
    to recognize our needs
    And to give us reassurance

    by her loving words and deeds.
     
    It takes a Mother's Endless Faith,
    her Confidence and Trust
    To guide us through the pitfalls
    of selfishness and lust.

    And that is why in all this world
    there could not be another
    Who could fulfill God's purpose
    as completely as a MOTHER!


    Helen Steiner Rice

     

    To my kids, thank you for making being a mom the most incredible untouchable thing in my life ~ I love you deeply...

    I have this guy Jim picking it up in his bike trailer and delivering to my house. Then my friend Keith is going to do a full "tune-up" (clean the fuel lines, adjust the brakes, filters and new oil, etc).  I should be able to insure it and be riding again hopefully by mid week!!  I cannot tell you in words how excited I am.  I have been without a bike for 6 years or so now and I think about it EVERY day.  I feel like I am in complete touch with my spirit when I am out there riding.  Nothing in the world really matters other then the road ahead of me, the wind rushing past me, and the sound and feel of the engine....  I just feel free and alive.  I have felt as though a piece of me has been missing all these years and that piece is simply fulfilling my passion for the ride.   My core is starting to calm already...  I feel a re-birth about to happen..  I am thankful to god for bringing me to the job I am at now and to the boss that has come to be a powerful and empowering figure in my life. He is generous in his business knowledge and takes the time to teach me and develop me as a person as well as my career.  Him and his wife offering to do this for me is incredible and I am so thankful!!
     
    Friday... aaaaaaaaaaaawww...   *pops a Smirnoff Ice*

    Onward..

    WEll I guess my basketball star found a new penpal... lol.  I haven't recieved a note in 4 days..  wonder if when he said "send me some pics" he meant nudies?? hahahahaha...  cause what he got was some good ol family photos!  Obviously he was thrilled beyond words!  LOL - What a drip..  err umm dribble..  
     
    Stephanie and I are at it again.  We are back in talks about her moving out.  It's such a shame that we can't fix this, but I have my expectations and she has hers and they are miles apart.  The lesson of "things come with hard work",  is not going over so well with her.  She is 16.... she knows all that is right and wrong with this world. 
     
    Work is still crazy busy but it's all good because I see the big picture with the company and can understand very clearly how I can be part of the future.  That's very enticing and fulfilling for me. 
     
    I didn't get my bike this weekend :(  I am getting a little worried actually.  My boss's wife is a little concerned over signing over the ownership to me as I will need that in order to insure it.  I have now offered to sign a "ownership agreement" that will clearly state that ownership goes back to her at season end and have it notarized so we shall see what she thinks of that.  My boss thinks that should be fine so I am trying to put the worry aside.  I should know for sure in the next couple days so cross your fingers for me.  I have everything crossed...   well almost everything.. heehee
     
    Ok .. time for something funny to finish with :)
     
    (Oh and hey... if anyone knows how to make cool siggy's and is into making one for my new site I would be grateful!  *muah*)

    My cell phone has some functionality this morning after drying all night.. but still not acting right. We shall see what happens...  BUT, if you know I had your number on there.. please email me and let me know just in case!
     
    Gotta blow dry and powder puff..

    Lay some pixles and leave me some loooooooooove :)
     

    Thank god it's almost Friday!

     
    Wow.. it's been CRAZY busy at work this week and certainly not slowing down any!  *I* need my own assistant damnit! hahaha.  Hopefully this Friday I can afford to put the bike on the road because the price of gas is Fckn Ridiculous!! 119.9 at end of day today?? Are they all on crack?!?!?!  I HAVE to get a motorcycle.. I just can't keep up with gas..
     
    Well, emails still flying back and forth between me and Kris.  I think were forging a good friendship and it is just kind of fun to get to know the perspectives on this crazy world from someone who's reality is so much more different then ours day to day.  It's cool :)
     
    Stephanie is now working at a clothing store and seems to be loving it.  She is getting tons of hours which is great and this will give her a feel for working full-time and how that affects your day to day life! HA!!!
     
    I am supposed to be going to see a new movie "The Brick" tomorrow night as my friend Linda won some tickets and asked if I wanted to use them.  I will have to go look online for a trailer and see what it's about. I will let you know what I thought of it on Friday.

    A little East Indian boy goes into the kitchen where his mom is baking.  He puts his hand in the flour and wipes it all over his face. "Look, mom, I'm a white boy!" His mom slaps him in the face and says; "Go show your father".

    He goes to his dad in the living room and says; "Look dad,  I'm a white boy." His dad slaps him in the face and says; "Go show your grandmother."

    The boy goes in his grandmother's room and says; "Look granny, I'm a white boy "  His grandmother slaps him in the face and sends him back to his mother.

    His mother says; "Now, did you learn anything from that?" To which the little boy replies;

    "Sure did. I've only been white for five minutes and I already hate you F*ckn Packies!"

    Harlem Globetrotters

    Oh my god, I had the BEST time today at the Harlem Globetrotters.  Not only was it a great time and loads of fun, but guess who got given an email address from one of the players! hahaha!  I STILL got it baby!! It was a nice ego boost I must say.   He was Haaaawt... and he asked me to wait around after the game ... I even got that on video! HAHA
    I have posted a whole bunch of pics of the show/game in a new photo album... but I must say this might just be my favorite..   could it be that #26 asked me to come over to him when this shot was taken by my friend? YES it was! *bigass smile*.  He was autographing after the game and pointed over the top of everyone and asked me to come forward... of course I am blushing and smiling like a school girl... Julie got the pic :)  Shall I actually write him?  He handed me his email address and told me to get in touch...   *sizzle*  hear that? thats me!!! LOL
     
    *curtsy*
    (nice double chin..  shuttup... lol)
     
    OK UPDATE!!!!
     
    I wrote him a quick little "hey it was nice to meet you and thanks for the big swollen head today, I am sure they will all appreciate it at work" He wrote me back within a few hours!!!! lol I l can't even believe that! :) I was expecting a "this mail was undeliverable" notice to be honest.. hahahaah
     
     He basically said that he found me very attractive and exactly "his type" - he needs a new line.. heehee and that he would love to visit victoria when he could spend a week or something being a tourist because he thought it was beautiful. Then he asked if he came back if he could take me to dinner .. my head wont fit through the door right now.. I am typing from the other room.. lol
     
    HA!!!
