A woman was arrested in an airport this week for allegedly trying to open an airplane door in an attempt to step outside for a smoke.
The plane was still in the air.
According to her lawyer, it wasn't her fault as she was drunk.
Apparently she was terrified of flying so she took some sleeping pills, and chased them with some alocohol.
That wasn't enough to calm her apparently, so she decided to go for a cigarette.......

Sometimes in our fear of unknown circumstances, we choose a path that leads to an even more destructive outcome.

Amazing what a coat of paint can do....
I picked an assortment of warm browns and creamy yellows for the walls in my new trailer. But after painting I was quite disappointed, it was looking a little less than inviting. I tried changing the light fixture, that didn't help, I put up a picture to take the focus off the walls, that didn't work.
So I painted the oak firplace, wouldn't you know it...I love the wall color!

the first real day at my new job.....

I got to wear fun shoes and cute clothes.

There is alot of technical stuff that I need to learn,and i'm learning very slowly, so I brought chocolate to distract my coworkers. I may not be smart, but maybe if they are all intoxicated with christmas treats, they might not notice.

Starting to feel like Christmas.
Maybe it's the snow on the mountains or the Canadian Tire commercials.
Whatever it is, I can't wait to string the lights and eat christmas cookies.
And christmas music.....would it be wrong if it were playing in my house right now?

Home Sweet Pineapple

As I brought Andrew home to our new place for the first time 2 weeks ago, he let out a big content sigh from the backseat and said "Home sweet home".
Indeed he was right.
It feels like home. There is still painting and unpacking to do but it feels restful and....settled.
Yes I like this feeling, of being in a cozy house at night, a house that is ours. A place to put things.
It's nice after a year to finally feel at ease again.
