Its been awhile...

Ok so its been a long time since I've been on the blog, and I found some very interesting things on here. I also did not know that Dean was married , or getting married or whatever that post was... WOW. Anyway, Lyndsay I can't believe you have the chance to go and see Madonna, I am so envious its ridiculous.
There isn't much going on in my life, found out there are 2 weddings in the family (not my sisters) this summer in PEI so I'll be home then, not 100% on the dates yet. I'm going crazy homesick for PEI right now I can't stand this city, or the people in it...grrr... thats me venting sorry. I'm just bitter cause I'm not going to the Junos!! hahaha yea right. Well ladies sorry I don't have much to say or much of anything interesting going on, same ole same ole

Madonna concert!!!!


I'm slowly turing this blog into Madonna's fan club. :) Tickets go on sale April 8th and her concert is June 21st!!!! It's going to be stressful trying to get tickets because we have 2 papers due April 7th so it'll be hard to be in line. We're working on a plan for line shifts. Hopefully I can get my papers finished earlier. This is pretty good incentive. I hope it's warm next weekend...we'll need to camp out.

Heading to the Gala

Hello All,

I haven't been writing on the blog, because there's been nothing going on in my life at all. I pretty much work, watch tv with my bro and hang out with Pegs and Hugh a bit. C'est tout. On the upside, I had a review here at work the other day and they didn't even realize that my contract was only for 6 months, so I'll be employed for at least the next year, which is nice. I've started looking for new apartments since I'll be roommateless come June when Bren either moves home or moves in with Jeff. This Saturday I'm going to the Ottawa Gala (www.ottawagala.com) According to the website it's a 'who's who of young professionals in Ottawa. The sister of one of the girls I work with is the co-chair and she got me a free VIP ticket, so free drinks for me :) There will be a few other people from work there. If nothing else, it's an excuse to get dressed up and hopefully meet some new people. That's all for me. Lynds, congrats again about the job and Madonna. CT, hope you get your drink on this weekend. Miss you all lots. I'm out.

Lyndsay's Blog

My goodness ladies, does no one but Lyndsay have anything interesting going on in their life? I really didn't do much on my March Break. Watched tv, cleaned my apartment, skated and went to Moncton. I'm glad Lynn (Megan's friend from Cape Breton) will be back this weekend and I'm hoping to go out or do something. It's time I got my drink on. So I got my phone line so ladies you'll be hearing from me and you're welcome to call me anytime day or night. Of course day I won't be there as I'm usually working, and night for the month of April I will be at the rink until 9 pm most nights. Hey at least I'm keeping busy. I'm so happy Lynds, Marla, Peggy and MC will be home for a couple of weeks in August. And Amanda is home then too I think. We'll have some good times for sure. All right ladies gotta go get ready for Gray's anatomy and make my lunch for tomorrow. Love yas lots,
CT

Like a prayer....


Just after I posted on the blog Friday night I heard the news....Madonna is coming to Montreal this summer!!!!!!!!!! Jane and I heard it on the radio at the same time. The date is going to be announced this week. I think tickets will be super hard to get. I can't imagine going to see her. It would be crazy.
What is everyone else up to?? It's starting to seem more like Spring here everyday. Unfortunately I'm stuck inside writing papers. rrr.
Love Lynds

Even better news...

Hi again...
Yesterday I met the head nurse from the transplant unit for an interview. The interview went well and I now for sure have the job. We were discussing start and end dates so I thought I'd ask about finishing earlier in August. To my surprise, she was totally willing to have me finish as early as Aug. 10th!!! She is from Nova Scotia and said she knows how hard it is being so far away from home. I offered to help out Labour Day weekend because I'll have to be back for school then anyway. I am so excited!!! I get to be home for 2 weeks at the end of August...see you girls, go to Peake's, go to the beach and all the other fun PEI summer stuff. Carolyn and I have discussed some plans already - mainly involving Nalgene bottles and daytime Myron's. I'll also get to see my aunt and cousins from Calgary because they are coming to PEI then too. I realized that it will be my parent's 35th wedding anniversary this year too. So my time at home will be jam-packed with activities. The only thing that could possibly make me more excited about summer is if Madonna comes here!! There's a rumour that she's going to have a concert here in July. Jane and I are prepared to sleepover in line for tickets. I'll keep you posted.
Miss you lots.

Love, Lynds

Ps - I can't post any pics of Chloe's party because I forgot she ate the USB cord for my camera. (I'm sure you're all very disappointed.) Unfortunately it's a weird size USB cord that I can't find anywhere.

Summer plans!

Hi girls,
Did everyone celebrate St. Paddy's Day in full force??? I went out Friday night with some friends and had to wait 1.5 hrs in line in the freezing cold! Luckily it didn't take long to get warmed up with drinks. One woman at the bar was so drunk she actually took her top off...bra included!!
I just got some good/bad news. I got a summer externship position with a McGill hospital!! I'll be at the Royal Victoria Hospital on the transplant unit. I'm very excited because there aren't many positions available. I will be paired with a nurse preceptor, work all his/her shifts and he/she will supervise me with my assigned patients. It will be great to get the experience. Also, most units accept externs with the intention of hiring them when they graduate...so it's a nice way to get into the hospital.
Obviously the bad part is that this will be my first summer away from PEI. Sorry CT!!! I'm already going in withdrawal just thinking about it. I can feel an Asthma attack coming on from the smog! :) (Luckily I have an air conditioner.) I was told there may be a possibility of finishing a week earlier in August but I have to wait and discuss this with the head nurse. I'm trying to plan a trip home just after Easter before my May clinical rotation starts. CT - I hope you're ready...we'll have to pretend it's summer. :)
My only other news is that my baby has her first birthday today. They grow up so fast! I'll take pictures later with her cupcake. Yes...I'm making cupcakes to celebrate! Dogs like cupcakes.
Miss you lots.
Love, Lyndsay

Too funny!

Oh that Chris! He is a master with the computer. So what's new with everyone? I went out on the town on Saturday night with Lynn. She's a friend of Megan Livingstone's who's here subbing for the year. We went to the Gate and were the only people under 40 so then we headed to the Dublin. It was packed and there were lots of people there. Mostly sat and people watched with some guy from Montague who's in the military. Thinks he knows Jonny, small world. My ice show is this Tyhursday and afterwards I will be enjoying a little Kaluha (courtesy of MC) because my goodness I will have earned it.
Love ya ladies,

How could he!


So I come home to find this picture on my desktop. Yes, this is what my husband does in his spare time just to annoy me. haha Okay, so maybe I've been obsessing about Ace a bit too much....

Has anyone else noticed?

Hello all,

I don't really have any news or anything. I chopped off my hair today, and that's about the most exciting thing that's happened up here in awhile. I just wanted to see if anyone else who's been watching Idol has noticed the resemblance between Ace Young and PEI's own Michael Smith, Inn Chef...let me know what you think. MC
