One More Week...

Well looking at the calendar I see that my flight back to Thunder Bay is in just one week. I am looking forward to seeing Mel again, and of course seeing everyone who has undoubtedly been missing me like crazy. I can barely wait to see how much Brandyn has grown. And I can barely wait to see Mom, and especially Dad since he is now close to the goal. I hope everyone is ready for some serious golfing since I will have next to nothing to do for a couple weeks. Anyways I guess that's about it for now but here's a sneek peek at what will be coming with me...

And Then There Were Two...

So the girls have left us here all by ourselves as they flew back to Thunder Bay last night to prep for the wedding and visit with family. I will be heading home in just a few weeks and am looking forward to seeing everyone. For now me and Dale will keep working and trying to keep the apartment relatively clean. (shouldn't be too tough) Since Dad got a new cell phone I figured I had better keep up with the old man and get an update myself, should be here Monday, Well I guess that's pretty much it for now, I'll try to keep this blog going, it's hard when all you do is sleep and work. I know, waah waah waah, but I'm working my butt off and can't wait to come home.

Oh Yeah...We Have a Blog?!?

Well It's been a while since the last post so we figured we had beter get our butts in gear and put something on to let everyone know how things are going out west. Here's a quick breakdown of the last few weeks...

1. We got arrested!
2. We bought a Nintendo Wii
3. Mike has his OWN vehicle (95 Pathfinder) which he pays his own insurance on and the inspection repairs!!!
4. Mel is almost done work for the year and will be heading back home in a couple weeks
5. Mike got new Sunglasses (Mel thinks there hot ;)
6. Condo idea is currently on the backburner as we're starting to lean towards a house...ps...if anyone has $20,000 for a "gift" let us know.
7. Mike got a new pillow (came with the car) that is good for the neck and reduces snoring!
8 Mike sure gets a lot!
9. Passport information is moving along. (We left the store when they took our pictures and they told us about 20 minutes...so we walk away and mel FLIPS OUT..."How are they going to know it's us...our names aren't on the receipt" DUH they're giving us pictures of ourselves!!! lol SPAZ
10. We had "Marble Slab Creamery" Ice Cream, they mix whatever ice cream you want with whatever toppings right in front of you on a big frozen slab.
11. Worked downtown, right beside the Calgary Tower, from 7 PM until 7 AM, a night that involvd a transport getting stuck under a bridge, a friend's stolen bike turning up beneath a druggie, and a random guy getting stabbed and bleeding all over a pipe, all in all a pretty memorable night.

And the funniest thing...I (Mike) have learned a great way to make Mel sick to her stomach...The fan by our window which I sleep beside blows cold air in the night so we can sleep in this sauna of a room...one night I "accidentally" passed some gas and the fan carried it right to mel's side HAHAHAHAHA, it was so funny I do it whenever I can.

Well hopefully that catches everyone up, if we think of anything else we'll blog right away, and if we get around to it we will do this again soon, what can we say, we don't do much!
