Our Host and Hostess in Montreal

Jeremy and I went to Montreal and Quebec City at the end of November and the first of December. We both had a great time and I got to see things that I have never seen before!

When we arrived in Montreal, the first night (Thursday) we stayed the night in the Garrison (base). It was a small room with a single bed and a shared bathroom, but it was cheap! At the time that was all that mattered!

Friday night, we headed out to long time friends of my family, Paul and Angela's. It has been years since I have seen them! I mean like 15 or more! Crazy eh?!! But when my mom emailed them and told them that my boyfriend and I were heading to Montreal, they very quickly opened their home to us and offered us a place to stay. The arrangements in their beautiful home were much more comfortable then the barracks!

We stayed with Paul and Angela and their family Friday and Saturday nights. We spent the days roaming around Montreal, Jeremy showing me the cool hot spots. I haven't walked so much in a very long time, but it was great!

I got to see Notre Dame Bassilia (sp?). I have pictures to be added at a later date in a seperate blog! (need to get them from Jeremy's PC to my PC!) It reminded me of my Nan so much, and I felt closer to her while I was in the church, I'm sure that she had seen that church at some point in her life.

Here is a picture of our host and hostess!



Their Daughter, Allison (I think) was out at the time of the picture, so we caught her as she re-entered the house! haha!



Angela is an awesome cook, I rank her up there with my Nan! It was great to spend time with Paul and Angela and I hope that we get to see them again in the future! Thanks again Paul and Angela for being such awesome hosts!

Another Move

As Jen mentioned in her post, Jeremy and I will be (hopefully) getting our own place in April. The countdown for that has yet to begin, but it will.

We are going to move into a PMQ in Oromocto, rent will be fairly cheap and we plan to not get cable (as neither of us really watches much tv, mostly movies). We are both excited about moving in together, however we are trying to hold out our excitement as April is a bit away.

First, we need to find someone to rent the townhouse and take over the lease which goes until October 2007. So, please keep your fingers crossed that we find someone! Or pass on the information if you know someone who is looking for a place!

All of Jeremy's possessions are in storage, in some warehouse somewhere in the country (I have no idea, and I don't think he does either). All of his stuff will come out of storage when we move in together. Plus we have to move all my stuff to Oromocto again.

Do I want to move to Oromocto?? Hmmm..tough question! Last time, none of my friends came to visit me, and I felt lonely out there. This time is different, I'm with a different person and not going all the way to Geary! So I have to say I am ok with moving to Oromocto as long as it's with Jeremy. I know ... "AAAWWWWW ain't that sweet" lol

So here's to changes in 2007!

Oh yeah to warn you all now, Jeremy has been talking quite a bit about Edmonton. He says he's going to ask to stay here, but I think he's trying to get me to warm up to the idea of moving there. He keeps telling me he's not going without me. "AWWWWWW SWEEET" So I guess I'm warning you that in September another big move might be taking place for me! Again to Changes in 2007. This might not happen for a couple of years, as he may get posted here, but you never know what the future holds, especially when you are dating an Army Buck! LOL

After a LLLLOOOONNNGGGG Wait

Jeremy's plane landed today at about 245pm. I was both nervous and excited, after all it had been three weeks since I had seen him last.

The preparations for Jeremy's arrival began early last week, however, with me being quite the procrasinator, it took some time to get everything organized and I left 90% of it to today! HAHA.

I had to clean the apartment up so that things were at least somewhat organized when he came, as well as to go with my new years resolution of becoming more girlie, I enlisted the help of Celeste. I bought two new outfits last week, as I wanted to have something new and something slimming, and something sexy to pick him up in. I bought two tops at Penningtons and 3 pairs of pants at Winners.

The problem was trying to decide what to wear and then accessories and then make up (holy, being a girl sure is tough!)

I got up today at about 9am I had something to eat, then I went to get my car washed, then to shoppers to get mousse for my hair and advil for my headache, and I walked out of Shoppers with mousse, two cards, and a new head band (you'll like it Jen!) and I forgot the advil and didn't remember until I was almost home. At that point I said, I'll get it when I go to Shoppers with Celeste to get make up.

After I got home, I got in the shower, added a little mousse to my hair to help keep it looking nice (or that was the plan!) Then I got a hold of Celeste to come over and we hummed and haa'd about what outfit I should wear. We finally decided on the red top with the black lace (I'll have to take a picture!)and black pants. I tried on my black pleather jacket and it was way too big. I couldn't believe it, not that long ago it was snug on me, but it seriously hung off of me..you can ask Celeste! I had another Pleahter Jacket in the closet that was beige/tan, and I tried it on (it hasn't fit in like a year or more) and it fit wonderfully! I couldn't believe it! How excited was i??? well pretty damn excited!

We left for shoppers at like 130 to get make up. It was hard to find what we wanted, and I still don't think Celeste found exactly what she wanted me to get. We got home and started putting the make up on. I of course sat on the floor with my eyes shut waiting for her to apply the make up for me...but NNNNOOOOO, she said "you have to learn to put it on yourself." so I had to apply the silly stuff myself. But then I was doing it somewhat wrong, so she helped me out! haha! SUCKER!!! JK Celeste I luvs ya!

I left here at twenty after two to be at the airport for twenty to three. I got there at about twenty to three...LOL Luckily, his plane was a few mins late. I heard someone say at quarter to three that the plane from Halifax had just landed. I thought ohh that's not so bad. I watched all the people come in from the plane, and then I seen Jeremy. I got all nervous, but I stood up and he came over to me and we both went through this "do I hug him/her" thing. Then our mouths opened and we started talking up a storm. (no hug tho)

Jeremy told me how pretty I looked, and how much a difference in my weight he could see. I told him about my adventures with Celeste and in the middle of that talk he kissed me (IN PUBLIC!!!! haha! He's not much for PDA)

It's great to have him back, and I really look forward to having him around. I really did miss him while he was gone. And I wasn't sure that I would, but he was online almost everyday to remind me that he was still around and that he wanted to come back.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year Everyone!

I had a pretty relaxing New Years. I went to work at noon until 10pm. It was great, not really, but I really enjoy the customers at the store, I'll miss them when I quit, which is coming soon. A person can only work every weekend for so long before they need a break.

I watched a few movies, and played some poker online.

I took down my christmas decorations today. Sorry that Jeremy will not make it to see them. Ahh well, that's what he gets for going away for 3 weeks! haha! Actually he may have seen some of them because I think they were up when we got back from Montreal.

I hope everyone had a great new years celebration and I wish everyone the best in the new year. Hard to believe it's 2007!
