Goodbye

Well tomorrow is the day Jason and Ashley move:( I am happy for them, but it sucks. It takes about 18 hrs to get to Fort Nelson. So hopefully a bus ticket wont cost to much money, so I can go visit them. I want to be there to see my neice grow up. I really dont want to be 18 hrs away from them. But I guess thats life. Love you Jason, Ashley and Mercede!! We will miss you!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I know my recent posts have been about my dad. But today is his birthday. He is 48! So just wanted to say happy birthday daddy!!

Tattoo

pics

here are some pics of me and my daddy!! I finally got my tattoo, its a guardian angel and it says daddys little girl! I will post a pic when i get one!

work, heat and babies!!

Well work is going good, getting busy and kind of boring. Talking to grumpy Americans can be kind of stressful but funny at the same time. Some of them come up with the funniest ideas. Today I had one guy call in and ask for his membership fee waved, and if i couldnt wave it he was going to cancel his card...LOL anyways enough obout that.

It has been pretty cool here, the weather hasnt been to bad, except today, it was 36. Way to hot for me. There is a forest fire up on the hill, i was watching all the bomber planes and hellicopters trying to put it out. Hopefully they got it a ll out. This weekend is supposed to get really hot too. But we are heading to Quesnel for the weekend, to visit family and some friends, and hopefully it will be cooler there then it is here, we are leaving tomorrow (friday) and coming back sunday!

I talked to my mom tonight, she said Mercede is Crawling and getting into things. I guess the other day she climbed out of her crib and went into the kitchen and got into the cat food!! Kids are so funny. Its amazing how fast they grow. Jason Ashley and Mercede are moving to Ft. Nelson soon:( Whiche is 16 hrs away from Aunty. It sucks, but I'll have to make some special trips to go spoil my neice a couple times a year. They are coming to Kamloops hopefully the 3rd of aug, then i can see them!!

Anyways enough for now. Hope everyone is well, have a great weekend! Leave some comments, its always neat to see who reads my blogs!!

Havn't blogged in a while

well things are going pretty good here in kamloops, except the heat, not used to that. Not sure if I will. The other day it was about 40 degrees. Work is going good. Finallu used to getting up at 4:30, I took 2 hrs of calls today, and probably like 2 more hours tomorrow, and hopefully the rest of the week. Its pretty neat. My birthday weekend was awesome, went to the family reunion and got to see so many people I havn't seen in a long time. I got some nice pictures of me and my dad, and travis and my dad. It was so nice seeing him again, he looks really good. I will post pictures when I can!! Well I should go, we are at the library and running out of time. We are supposed to get the internet hooked up on saturday, then I can post more!! Take care and talk soon!!!

Birthday Wish!

Well we arrived in New west today, Staying at Jason and Ashleys for the night. Then tomorrow we are heading off to the reunion, I am very excited to see everyone!! I cant wait. My birthday is on monday, July 2nd. I told Travis I wanted one thing for my birthday, and that was to see my dad. And I got to see him!! It was so awesome. I was shaking and almost crying before we even found him. I walked in and seen him sitting at a table, and he seen me I could see the instant tears in his eyes. My birthday wish came true. So we had lunch with him, and sat outside for about 2 hrs just talking. I got pictures and stuff that I will add when I get my computer up and running!! I get to spend the weekend with Jason and Ashley and my beautiful neice mercede. I have pics of her too that I will add. I am going to go though, I am getting tired. Hope everyone is well, talk soon!!!

Kamloops and stuff

Well we found a place to rent today, we are moving in on saturday. I am excited. Weather is really hot here, sometimes to hot but it's ok. Kamloops is a really nice place, I am happy here. We went to Quesnel last weekend. Suprised our friends who Travis sings Karaoki with. They were pretty excited. I start my training next monday, at 5:45 am. Not looking forward to that, buit I will get used to it. Mom is doing good in mission. She is going to be going back to Quesnel in about a week, to start over with Ross. He has been going to rehab and getting counselling. Which is good. But I think it is to soon for my mom. Her and Aunty Colleen went to see my dad today, hopefully that went ok. I'll call her tonight and see, and I will post more. We are going to the family reunion in 2 weeks. I cant wait to see everyone. Well I have to get going. Hope everyone is well. Take care and talk soon!!

Good luck Mom!!

Well I stayed at Travis's parents last night, we are in town for a wedding. Got to see my mom, which was very nice. I got a phone call this morning at 4:30 from my mom. Didnt really know what was up so I called her back, She decided to leave Ross. I am sending her on the bus today at 11:05 am, and she should be in Abbotsford at 7:05!! I am so happy for her words cant even describe. It has taken her 4 yrs almost to the date to realize she wasnt happy. I am so thankful my mom got enough currage to leave that loser. She will be in a happier place, and get her life in order again. Keep my mom in your thoughts, and wish us lots of luck. I will keep you posted about everything!! Thanks so much everyone

Convergys

Well Travis and I both got a job at convergy's. I am going to be an american express consultant, and Travis is a computer tech. I will be doing 5-6 weeks of training, and Travis will do 3 weeks. Then we will be qualified to work. I am so excited!! I will be making 11.55 an hr to start. Kamloops is a really nice place. We are going to go to the reunion only for 2 days tho, we can only get the Saturday and Sunday off. But thats ok, as long as I can go for at least one day. I cant wait to see everyone, and camp, I havent been camping in sooo long! It'll be lots of fun. Well hope to see everyone there!! Take care

In Kamkoops

Well we have decided to move to Kamloops. Unfortinutly things did not work out in Airdrie. Jen I am so sorry that things had to end so soon. My stay there was awesome, it was nice to get to know you again, and to meet the kids. I cant wait to come back and visit. Things are going to work out just fine for me here in Kamloops. I dropped a resume off at Gonverys yesterday, which is a big telecomunication centre, and they reemberse you for schooling. So I am hoping I will get a call in a day or two. They have 3 colleges here, Sprott-Shaw, TRU, and Another one with just health courses. I am hoping to apply at sprott-shaw. Travis and I are going to the family Reunion in July, I cant wait to see them. I'm kind of worried though, not sure what they are going to say about everything. But hopefully we can put all that aside and have a great time. Thanks so much everyone for their support. I will keep in touch with everyone. Take care and talk soon!

Getting closer and closer!!

Last night I got a phone call, from Aunty Colleen. She went to the Salvation Army and found my dad!! She had lunch with him and everything. I cried last night, the first time I cried in over 6 months. I am trying to find a return plane tickit from Calgary to Abbotsford or Vancouver, so I can see him, and have lunch with him too. Just to see him will make my day!! I am told he is a big bush man with grey hair. I cant picture him like that, but oh well. I am soo excited!!

So yesterday me and Jen went and got a membership for Goodlife Fitness. If I keep working at it constantly, i will be 138 lbs by december. Things are finally looking up. I am really enjoying it here. The kids are great fun, its neet seeing how fast Lindsey is growing. She is starting to smile and coo. Kolby is starting to talk. Travis got a new Job working for telus! He really enjoys it.

I am going to make a new blog for my fitness blog!!
Take care and talk soon

Interesting weather in Alberta I tell ya!

Well the weather has been very strange around here lately. A couple weeks ago, it was almost 30 degrees, short and t-shirt weather. Then it started to cool down a bit. We got a really weird storm, I witnessed my first mini tornado in the parking lot of where I work. It came across the field, into the parking lot, picked a van up off it's wheels, then it turned and went down the street. Really windy and stormy. Last night was the same, really windy, the power even went out for a bit. THEN!! I woke up this morning, and it's SNOWING like crazy. May 21st, we have about 3 cms of snow so far, and it doesnt look like it's gonna quit!! Back home it's probably all sunny and warm!!

Father Daughter

My dad and I always had a very special Father Daughter bond. He was always away for work, but when he would come home, we would spend the whole day together just talking, eating junk food, and having a good time. My dad has always been my hero, he was always the one i went to with problems, because he would sit and talk to me about them till I felt better. I would always here how much people couldn't stand their dad's. When I heard that, I remember always thinking, wow im so lucky to have a dad like mine. He was always fun and goofy, but searious when he wanted to be. I always remember the ways he would bug me in front of boys, and wistle at me in front of them, just because he knew it made me mad. My dad has made me who I am today. Even though he isnt here with me, and hasnt been in a very long time, I still thank him every day for what he has done for me. I know he is out there somewhere thinking about me, maybe he is to scared to talk to me because of the things he has done. But that is all in the past, I wish he would know how much I want him in my life and how much I need him in my life right now and forever. One time he told me he will always be my Guardian Angel. Now I truely believe he is my guardian angel. He is always here with me. present or not, I can always feel the love he had for me. How I was always daddy's little girl. I used to fight my brother just to be able to sit by my dad. We would always take one day of the week and go shopping together, we could always get junk food!! I love my dad so much, I would do anything in the world to be with him. Daddy I love you, never forget that. It breaks my heart knowing that he isnt around anymore. No more laughs, eating junk food, going for long drives. The memories will always be there, and one day daddy will be too. Until then, I have to hold tight and keep the memories with me. Till the day my dad wants to be found! I want to be the one to see him for the first time, and hug and kiss him. I await this day every day of my life. Dad come home soon, I miss you!

UPDATE

Ok, so the cop called me back yesterday. He said he delt with my dad in April. He said my dad was really friendly and wouldnt hurt a thing. He also said the reason he talked to my dad was because he was sleeping on the street. Which means he is homeless. So good and bad news. We will find him sooner or later...Hopefully sooner. It makes me sick to my stomache, that I have a roof over my head, and food to eat. And my own flesh and blood is living on the streets. It's just not fair. So dont take your parents for granted. It makes me mad when i hear people say how much they hate their dad. Well you only have one, you never know what can happen!

Update on my search!

Well I have the best news in the whole intire world! My dad is in Abbotsford! I called the Abbotsford Police Deparment today, they said they had a conformation with him in April of this year. So now I have to try and get a hold of where he is living. And maybe talk to him...*Crosses Fingers* I will keep you updated as soon as I hear more! Thanks everyone for their support.

On a mission!!

Today I am going to start my search for my dad. I dont care how long it takes me, or how much it will cost. I miss my dad so much, and I think everyone else does. But probably not as much as me! It has been over a year since we heard from him last. I think now it's time to start looking for him! My dad is my hero, sure he has his faults, but he has taught me so much in life. I want him to know where I am, I want him to meet Travis, and meet his grandaughter also. I am going to go to the cop station today and see if they can help me. Then I will go to the corrections of BC, and see if they can search him if he is in Jail. I just want to know where he is, and that he is safe. I love my dad dearly, and think about him all the time. Please with me luck, i'm sure I will need it. I will keep you guys posted, everytime I hear something!! Thanks so much. Hope everyone is well!!

Just hangin out in bed last night having fun with the camera!!

Here are some pics of the trip here, and a really good one of me and travis we took last night.

Here in Airdrie

Well we arrived safe and sound...and a bit tired! Airdrie is wonderfull, the people are really nice. And omg so many jobs!! Travis already started work yesterday, he is at work right now too. He is enjoying it here also. I went job hunting, I have 2 jobs lined up right now. At Joey's seafood restaurant, and at The Real Canadian Liquor Store. They are going to work around my schedual. I will also be taking some upgrading courses, and hopefully be in school full time by the end of auguest. I want to take the Hospital Unit Clerk. And work in Calgary which will be nice.

The trip here was breath taking! We got to go through the Columbian Ice Fields. OMG i have never seen anything more amazing then that. I think Travis thought I was nuts, cause I got so excited, and took lots of pictures. I will post them as soon as I can. We stayed in Jasper the first night, it was a really nice hotel. We went to the lounge for dinner, which was AWESOME! We both had Pasta. Then we got cake for dessert...It was moldy! EWW So we complained and got a free piece of cheese cake! Which was awesome.

We have been exploring Airdrie, checking out new things! My phone number has changed, so if anyone wants to give me a call, i would love to here from you. My new number is...1-403-870-5943! Hope everyone is well. I will post more soon, hopefully add some pics!!
