Well, as everyone knows, I now have two jobs - one at the Booster and another at Starbucks (which will officially open on July 23. My life will turn from busy into chaotic as I will be working well over 60 hours each week. On the bright side, I will hopefully pay off some of my debt a lot faster and maybe, just maybe I will some day be able to buy a new car or something equally exciting.
Two days ago I got back from camping up at Brightsand Lake (a little over an hour from Lloyd). It was nice to just get away for a few days ---- on my first-ever paid vacation!! Woohoo! While it rained the entire day before we got up there, the weather was pretty good most of the time while we were up there.
See? Karen was pretty excited about it too...haha.
And here's Kim...just hanging out by the fire. The tent in the background is mine. Putting it up is super easy. You basically pull the top and it builds itself....unfortunately the taking down part isn't quite as easy --- let's just say, I wanted to throw it in the garbage and walk away. Luckily, I figured it out last night and for the next camping trip I have a super duper great tent. It's small, but I am hoping to upgrade sometime in the future. :)
The red tent you can partially see, is also mine. I bought it for $17 last year at Canadian Tire. While its also small, its done me well. My aunt gave me the other one.
And here are my three campmates from when we went geocaching. All in all the whole weekend was tons of fun.
And...for the rest of the summer, I will be a disappearing act for the most part. Between work and then the weekends I do have stuff planned, I may just be hard to find.
