Save Toby

Well my first week of training for work for being a "Molly Maid" is done tomorrow then I start on Monday being a head maid. Which means I get paid more AND get the company car which is a piece of crap but hey this means Matt pancake can take my car for while, so he can save up for a newer one. :0)

Anywho tomorrow after work I go up to see Matt in Peterborough and then mom and dad come later on with the rented cube van to move all of Matt's things here to the Niagara Region. Which I know he is gonna love living here. Even though Peterborough is nice but down here is nicer. HA!!!! But I am getting excited about our future together. I know the wedding is in 6 months (tomorrow), but we've just been waiting for some time now to get married and now it's happening..eeekkk...so exciting. All the wedding stuff is done and booked so now I'm just chilaxing...kind of bored that there isn't more wedding things to do OR the fact that I didn't stress at all. But Matt's been a great help did a lot of the planning and researching for good prices and so far so good.

Well off to bed I go but before that check out this web site. www.savetoby.com

Off to dream land I go.

Good-bye Peterborough

Well today I leave Peterborough for good. Sad you ask? Yes and no. I mean this has been my home for the past 1.5 years and it has a lot of my friends and a lot of great memories but we will be back to visit. So right now my car is PACKED!!!!! I can't believe how much stuff I have. HA! It's crazy mind you all the bare necessities, (forget about your worries and your strife) But I left some things behind b/c it just won't fit in my car, like my desk. But after my first week in training at my job (I start the 25th) we will be coming back the 29-30th to pick up Matt and his stuff and the rest of my things. My mom and dad were nice enough to rent us a cube van for our things, because Matt has a couch and loveseat and other larger house hold items.

So late night was the last time I get to sleep in that bed, which is a good thing, because the bed in there made me sore and sometimes not very mobile. So glad to be sleeping in my bed back home, for the next 6 months. Then I gotta share a bed...grrr...I think Matt and I should buy a king size bed. But all in all it was a bad place to live but I was getting sick of living there and the people. (we won't go there W-A-Y to long of a story)

Well I'm sitting here in the dark at Matt's because he's still sleeping at 9:53am. I got up and packed the rest of my things. (fsjldk oops sorry it's hard to see in the dark apparently I hit the wrong keys)

Last night Matt and I went out for din din with his Bro Andy and his sis Meaghan. That was nice I miss hanging out with his sister. We have/had a lot of good laughs and talks. I mean we can still have those but no as often. This is sad...but a part of life and moving away.

Anywho I should go and e-mail my mom to tell her what time I am leaving and wake up Matt.

So as this will be my last blog written IN Peterborough.

God Bless

Anyways I drove back home today for my interview tomorrow, cause I need this job. Well not nervous but excited about my interview. It makes me feel good that I'm getting some answers to my prayers. But anyone who may read this tonight could you please say a little pray for me that I won't be nervous and that all would go well. And that I will get this job to.

Off to sleepy land I go.

Bored out of my skull

Well tonight was completely boring and a waste of time. Nothing on TV sick of this computer I wish I was back home with my family. Matt had to work originally from 1-9 and then he text message me (we got 3 free months from Telus when we bought the holiday buddle package) then he has to work till 11! *sigh* I know 9 isn't early in the evening but still I would hang out here with him till about 10:30 and talk and stuff but by the time 11 come around...little old me tends to get cranky and tired. But since being engaged we haven't gone out and celebrated and this makes me sad. HA I sound pathetic I got a ring and getting married what else do I want? Don't get me wrong I'm not complaning; it just would have been nice to go out with just the 2 of us and celebrated. He doesn't have a day off till Tuesday, I mean we can go and celebrate then but it would have been nice to do it when he actually proposed on sat, but then he had to work. GAH!!! I'm just sick of being bored and jobless all time. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO looking forward to moving back home cause then I'll never be bored. I have my old friends from grade school to hang out with all the time. I mean I have friends here but they are busy with school/weddings and that's okay I totally get that. Katie...oh how I miss my Katie...well she lives in Oshawa and that isn't too far away but she's busy right now with school too. But all my friends back home our done with school so I know if I call them they aren't busy. But then there is Lindsay’s who lives ALL the way in North Bay...move to Fonthill girl. Then there is Jill...oh Jill move to Ontario. But if that fails with my friends I also have my mom and dad and they are BOTH a whoot hoot a toot to hang out with. Well enough of that.

Enough of the rambling I'm just looking forward being back home again and not feeling so alone in this city we call Peterborough. Well that should be all for now. Have yourself a good evening.
