Humidity...

Spring in Massachusetts is definetly creeping up on me. I shouldn't be surprized though....I am used to no official spring weather and just full force leap into summer 80's and high humidity!! So after a weekend of temperatures in the 30's...here we are...high 80's with humidity that gives my hair a product-free perm!! Love it!! NOT!! I mean...if I want curly frizzy hair, I can plan for that myself...don't need humidity to do it!! But I guess I must adhere to this weather and to the severe heat happening in my office. My boss apparently has a thing for sweaty staff...so he doesn't turn on the A/C until it's in the high 90's. Not only am I surrounded by windows...i have a sky light which causes my head to get really hot and I'm sweating all together profusely!! so...i told my boss...if he really wants us to..we'll wear shorts and tank tops...he doesn't have to keep us in an oven all day!!!
My boss is something else...i tell you.....while doing a cancer screening on a patient, he decided to pop some 79 year old woman's zit..and then..show me and her the black head of the zit. REALLY??!!! I didn't know that's part of my job description....
Other than that....I am anxiously waiting the start of the final game between Montreal and Boston and I'm going to wear my Canadian T-shirt and cheer my boys on!!! And then...get ready for an awesome anniversary weekend filled with heat...blooming flowers...maybe a trip to Boston and definetly a Matt Dusk concert!!! I am super psyched!!!!

The Holy Week...

I am sitting here, completely dissapointed that I live in the land that "trusts in God" and today, on Good Friday, I have yet to hear something or someone mention the REAL meaning of Easter. I am so distgusted at the sight of this secular intruder...the bunny...that it's making me sick to my stomach. Although this celebration has caught me off guard for many reasons, the REAL CELEBRATION is no surprize to me. I am humbled and speachless by the abundance of God's love for me that He chose to let His son die for my sins so that I would live eternally...ETERNALLY....with God...and Jesus in His kingdom. Really?! Me?! Have eternal life...ME?? A sinner.....dirtier than the worse garbage dump....ME? Eternal life...it's uncomprehendable but I will embrace my salvation and embrace my Saviour.
I love you Jesus and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your sacrifice. Please do not let me ever forget this!
CHRIST IS RISEN!!!!

Perfect mornings...

not that i just had one or anything...I just realized lately that I am in love with mornings. I am in love with the light in the morning, I am in love with the morning quietness (which is very different than the evening quietness), i am in love with the birds singing their heads off, I am in love with breakfast food, coffee..and of course, I am in love with seeing my husband's face first thing in the morning!!! Therefor i will make a point to get up early enough to enjoy about 4 hours of the morning atmosphere, even on days when I don't work!!!

Let's see...since last time I wrote...my hairdryer is working good (not GREAT...but good!). I got all mad at the post office people because they sent me back my letter after I put a 89 cent stamp on it and told me it needed 61...and I made a big deal about it on FB...and now, just between us, it was my fault because I put an 89 cent CANADIAN stamp (thinking that it's a us stamp going to canada...which I thought would be ok...but NOOOOOOO...I brought canadian stamps w/ me and started using them!!)....SOOOO...they were right, but US post office is still messed up big time. ANYWAYS....

Sunday is Palm Sunday...WHERE DID THE TIME GO?? I am not ready for Easter...I miss having an Easter program to get ready for at church. I miss our old church all together...I miss us back then...Marius and I were looking at old pictures from youth back in Kitchener...waaaaaaaay back in the mid to late 90's. Everyone was so young and childish and FUN....people lost their fun on the way...what's up with that?! Those were the days of friday night youth and then hanging out after until the wee hours of the morning....saturday all day practice with band and choir and then soccer after....Sunday all day church and evening soccer at Bechtel park after afteroon service...with Fr. Pasui acting as the main goalie...he was funny..he was actually pretty good!!!! I miss how we all got along so well...there were no competitions.....no kids...no husbands...no JOBS....just school to worry about. But then I remember how we used to talk and say how we cannot wait to get married and move on with life and finish school and get jobs and now....well....we all got married...some have kids...MOST have jobs!! As long as everyone is still close to our Lord and praising Him through their lives....I AM HAPPY!!!

ok...my morning is over, my coffee is cold...and I need to cook!!!!!!! Enjoy my pictures....Marius and I sure did!!!!!

Requiem for not one...but two hair dryers!!

As everyone that reads this blog knows (because the only people that read this blog are people who know me well!!!)...my hair is my treasure. And in order for me to make my treasure look good, I need a good hair dryer. So my whole life (and i mean my life since I discovered my hair as a treasure!!!) I owned 3 hair dryers. My first one...nice and blue, a Conair that worked miracles (that was the blue one!!) When I got married, I left that one at home for my father to use (I know, you WOULD think i would say mom.....but no, DAD!!!!)....and I bought myself another Conair...a black one, with blue buttons......and THAT was my favorite by far!! THEN...I realized that this new one doesn't have a diffuser, and now, I needed one because my husband told me he liked my curly hair!!! SOOOOOOOOO...I got a new one with a diffuser (a Revlon this time! which i cannot find a picture of!!). ANYWAYS...let me get to my point!!

So....my sweet adorable better half, goes to England, I give him my favorite hair dryer (because it's smaller!!) and he comes back....with a fried hair dryer (apparently he was missing a piece of the UK converter that we thought he didn't need!!!!). So...I say good bye to my favorite hair dryer and take it to the garbage (it was hard!). But...thank God, we still had the Revlon w/ the diffuser...so we're good. But wait....a week later, he comes out of the bathroom, with wet hair (which he never does!) and tells me that our newly widowed hair dryer, has also died. PANIC...I mean, you guys know me and you know M...he is just as obsessed about his hair as I am.

Mission on: FIND A NEW FAMILY HAIR DRYER that has all the qualities we are looking for. Mission accomplished!!! When I came home with it...I find out that the reason it looked so familiar is because it's the same hair dryer my dad bought recently (no wonder why it felt good in my hands...because i've used it all of last year!!!). So...we are now the proud owners of another Conair hair dryer with a button you push that retracts the cord...it's awesome!!!!!...and now I have to go wash my hair and make it look like a movie star!!!
