Since moving, we're pretty much organized but there's still some stuff in boxes. Al's Aunt gave us a standup "pantry" for in the kitchen, so i get my bookshelf back. I just unpacked about 4 boxes of books, and there's still 3 boxes under my bed. It's not like we read alot anyway. Neither of us realized how much stuff we had untill moving here. It's all good though, slowly we're getting rid of stuff....(we have 9 Pans) . I dont' think we'll be here longer than 2 years though, I can definately see getting a house within the next few years. Untill then , we make do. So i went to Walmart this morning and bought one of those vaccume seal bags for storage. The box came with a Large and an Extra Large bag. Ive filled the large one with most of my winter clothes, and the Jumbo one has 2 king size comforters, about 10 towels (extra's) and 2 sets of sheets, and some other stuff. I LOVE THIS BAG. Im so getting another one or two , we've got some winter jackets that could be sucked airless and give us even more room! I think this is my new favorite thing!
One thing , when we DO get a house, it HAS to have a big kitchen. Cause I got ALOT of kitchen crap. ALOT. I have almost everything you would want for a normal residential kitchen, Digital rice cooker, Large Crock Pot, Blender, George Foreman, Kettle, etc, not to mention all our baking stuff, i think we have like 6 cookie sheets. Oh and the dishes...my word have we got dishes. WE have about 4 full sets of dishes in the cupboard. Hoping when Mike , Al's old roommate, and his girlfriend Kera get back from BC that they'll need dishes and pots and pans and stuff. Mike is Sean's (Rachel's boyfriend) brother. He and Kera are both early 20's, and took the opportunity to work at a resort out West for the summer. I miss them! I used to see both of them all the time before Me and Al moved.
Mom called last night, i could tell by the sound of her voice something was wrong. At first I thought it was Grandpa, but she didn't sound upset like someone died. It was my grandma's 80th birthday yesterday (my dad's mom), and they were all at family's place having a party when She had an Epileptic Seizure. She's in the hospital now, they want to know exactly why it happened. I think they're gonna put her in a Nursing home, apparently she's brought it up before this way she's not alone. If she had been alone when this happened.....it wouldn't have been good. Im not sure how i feel. I mean , i love my grandma, but we've never been close. First there's the language barrier, my grandma only speaks french. Plus the distance...when i was younger we'd visit every year for a week, even when we moved there to quebec she was still close to 3 hours away. I love my grandma but it's not hitting me as hard as Grandpa Kelley's health hit me. Im probably horrible for saying that, but something is to be said for closeness.
It's my cousins wedding in St Thomas on saturday. Still gotta her her a gift. She's marrying a really nice guy , Mike...I can't understand a word the guys says. He's Jamaican and his accent is so thick and he sorta mumbles. Should be interesting lol.
Making Steak Fajjita's for dinner tonight...my mouth is watering. oh and did i mention BB10 is on now?
