So another attempt...it seems I never have the energy to update.
I am just not "feeling" it, I guess.
Life has been a bit of whirlwind, and will continue to be so until Christmas. That is fine, although I would love a nap. This time of year is kinda hard, not because of the busyness, but because I get more homesick. Could they write any more songs about not being with loved ones and stuff? Sheesh!
This year will be good, just Craig and I. I look forward to a low-key day, but still miss the traditional stuff of my family...but now I am married and my own family, so we need to start our own traditions (at least this is what I tell myself!).
Jasper continues to be our elephant in the room...or our energetic bundle of teeth and pee. We seem to have a bipolar relationship with him. We love the little guy, but feel like we aren't giving him the right quality of life. He needs to run and hunt and herd...sorry little puppy! Thing is, we both don't want to be "failure" dog owners... and we don't want to give up on him as he grows up and learns new behaviours...anyways...enough on the puppy. Today I caught myself looking up cat breeds online. I always fancied myself a cat-disliker (especially since I am allergic to them), so this caught me off guard (but I admit it to xangaland!).
It has been raining tonnes - it's been great, but the power goes out a lot! I love sleeping to the sound of rain. It gets so loud here, like can't hear the TV loud. Pretty cool!
Hmm...not much else to report, I suppose. I don't want to come across as mopey and/or cryptic. When pictures from my sister's wedding become available, I will post a link for you to see. It was a good time! Again, I am so thankful we were able to go, although it made me realize all the more how far I am from family...which I used to be okay with, but maybe that was because we were on the same big chunk of land.... maybe I am just getting old. Heck, I will be 30 in a few months!
Time to go corral the dog until Craig gets home from Men's Fellowship. (he's currently eating some cardboard...Jasper, not Craig....nevermind, he just swallowed it).
Busy times with Kettles starting on Monday, Thanksgiving dinner for 600+ people on Thursday as well as angel tree starting.
Time to go!
Until next time...

Life has been a whirlwind for me too. I just don't have the energy to update, so I applaud you on that front!
Sounds like it is going to remain a busy time for you for the next month at least with fake-Thanksgiving (haha sorry, Canadian Thanksgiving will be the only real Thanksgiving in my mind) & Christmas coming up.
Hope Jasper calms down for you (& both Jasper & Craig stop eating cardboard :P ).
