Happy first day of summer!!! I have definatly had an amazing day in the sun and I will tell you why...!!! First and formost I didn't have to go into work. I do love work but lately I have had two days on and one day off with the occasional three days on followed by one day off!! I like this far better than working five days on and two days off because I find half way through my first day off I go stir crazy!!! If I only get one day off I do everything I need to in preparation to work the next day!!! That is my first reason!!
Secondly, I cracked open the long awaited school homework books and got reading!! I always ask myself why I procrastinate because I LOVE what I am reading and I get so into it... I just have to sit down and actually do it! Better yet I did it on a lawn chair in the sun!! But I started to get a little roasty toasty so I had this GREAT idea!!! I jumped into my car and drove to Superstore!!! There Scary Larry and I met!!! He is a inflatable shark that holds water a.k.a a children's pool!!! Anyways Scary Larry kept me cool and I Laid in the sun! It was great!! Well that was until Scary Larry developed a hole. I have yet to find it...
Later on in the day I went to the gym... I had a great ab work out with my good friend Edison... We always work harder when we are with each other!!! We laugh alot too so I'm sure that counts as a workout too. I then went to an aerobics class!!! I worked sooo hard!!! my face is still probably red from it and it's been a hour since the end of the class!!!
Now... I came home and was a little disaponted to find out I have no where to go tonight... but I also consider it exciting becasue I am going to go and crack open my book again and read!!! Life is good!!!
Oh ya and I am one step closer to being in the RCMP!!! WOO HOOO!!!

I'm not really sure if anyone reads this anymore... but I know you are a faithful reader Susan so I will carry on... I miss Saskatoon so much these past few days. When I first moved home in January Winnipeg was so great and Saskatoon was a thing of the past. However, Looking back these last few months home I realized I felt this way because Saskatoon is the most uneventful place to live in the winter. There isn't alot to do. Well that is untrue... there are about three activities you can participate in but when you do them repeatedly for a week they become old!
None the less, Saskatoon is the most beautiful place to live in the summertime. Last summer was very hard for me but as it went on I spent alot of time by the river. I would run along the path there daily and check out the bands and festivals they would have weekly. After work I would go to my deserted spot near the water and sun tan until supper. When Susan got home in the evening we would walk the path and talk forever somenights. When life seemed too hard I would lace up my runners and go on another extra long run until I was too tired to worry. I would jump benches and hit the ground in the leaves while running to prepare for the popat. But the thing that was so special to me was the time I spent with God when I was at the river. It was a constant devotional time whenever I was near it. It brought me to a place where I could get back to the basics of life and be still.
Now looking at Winnipeg I feel an emptyness during summer. I can't step out my backyard and run by the river. I don't really want to tan at the forks surrounded by poop infested water. But most of all I don't have my place to be still and listen to God. Now that I moved to Winnipeg I have to find a new way to recharge, a new place to hear his voice... this is what my heart is straining for.

My very long time friend Justin Sturby!

So Trent and Kourtnay's wedding was a very lovely time!!! Honestly it was very tiring. Or maybe it was just tiring because I usually spend my nights at home not doing much... going out two nights in a row can take alot out of a person!!! I had a great time seeing friends that I haven't seen in a while!! It was funny too becuase there were some people who came up to me and admitted they didn't recognize me! That did make me feel good and I took it as a compliment!! I do not think my best years were in highschool to say the least!!!

Well I'm off to watch Music and Lyrics with my friend Edison!!!
