Sticky mess!

I've been some what productive!.. I say some what pretty mildly.

On Tuesday I was at Mr.Ribs painting on the front glass. 

" Lunch and Dinner Specials Daily"   but at one point they went out side to look and realized the glass was tinted and they made me scrape it off. I was not impressed. I was there all day. But I still managed to make John Pigs in a blanket for Lunch and Butter nut Squash Risotto... though For some odd reason it tasted like baked beans... It wasn't a hit.  

Tuesday John got to eat left overs for Lunch but I made Roasted veggies and a Crunchy Pork chops with Apple Butter sauce.   Then Today I made up a loaf of bread and some burger buns. Then I made Whole wheat apple cinnamon pancakes and buckwheat/flax chocolate pancakes with a side of sausage for Lunch. John was very pleased with his lunch( shhh I didn't mention the flax)  

This afternoon I hung out with Lori for a bit, it was nice then I came home and made up some Mozza stuffed Burgers!  I bake them so I don't need to spend alot of time with them and they stay super Juicy. But the Recipe I made up is insanely juicy any ways!  They were a huge Hit with My Love. I caught him kissing his burger more the once. He also claimed if it was a person, I'd be single. And that his burger was almost better then Sex. 

Though I made up a batch of Lemonade that I'm really enjoying. Then I made up a bit batch of simple Syrup to keep in the back of the fridge For when I need a quick bit of it. At this current time, I am Steeping some Green tea to make some Sweet Iced Green Tea. I am excited to try it when I'm done. Sometimes I can be productive but Sometimes I'm kinda of lazy.

Today I went over to Mr.Ribs and it looked a bit dark but I thought I'd Check the door. maybe he was in the office. So I opened the Door. Peeked in and saw no lights or anything. Closed it then Kinda stood there pondering what to do. Should I wander the mall a bit or walk home, Have a drink at the A&W and wait for someone to show. As I pondered. A cop pulled up with the lights on...  A cop got out and questioned me. Did you just come out of the restaurant, Why were you here, Did you Try the door, Blah blah blah.  

I couldn't hear it when I opened the door but the alarm was going off and they thought I did it. 

Sam pulled up 5 minutes later and told the cop that i did work for him but he claimed he had locked the door but it hadn't been locked properly. 

So inside we go and first thing he had me to was scrub the grease build up from behind the oven that they moved.It was over 10 Years worth of Grease.  I was covered to my elbows and the grease/junk was soaking through the knees of my jeans. I wasn't impressed.  Then I had the fun of Moping the back. Just like the good old days. :/  Steve hated when I slopped mopped but Sam doesn't seem to care. 

Then I got to take the old menus out of the book insert things. Wipe them down and insert the new Menu. and God these inserts sucked. Intil i got a good method picked out. it was taking me over 5 minutes to get a piece worked into it.  I finished a few then we took a break for lunch around 1:00

Sam made everyone Steak, Greek salad, Garlic Toast and Some Charbroiled Chicken. I don't eat chicken but I picked at it because he was feeding me for free. The Greek salad was pretty Good and the steak was perfect. it wasn't a cheap cut, and it was cooked just the way I like it. I rarely get steak so I was over the moon. Then after Lunch I had to finish stuffing the stupid menus into the inserts. The Pepsi Man showed up and I got to hook up all the syrups. Though as I tried to get the damn cap off. the whole Nozzle popped off covering me in pop Syrup! I put it back in hoping to stop the leak and hopefully still use the syrup. Luckily it did!  But I had to wipe it up because unfortunately Syrup is insanely sticky.  

As expected, I did not get the job at Big Sky. I was inexperienced for the job but it's always better to aim higher right. ?

I got the Job at Mr.Ribs. Sam has called me a couple times. I'm helping him find plumbers, handy men and what not as well as painting the glass on a couple windows which i personally think is tacky but what ever floats his boat right?    

Even though I don't actually start work til a unknown time, I think he is paying me for the things he's getting me to do and if not. He will know how much of a dedicated worker I am and that I really do give my all.   It's something to do. 

I haven't really been going  all out with my cooking. I fully admit I've stopped trying. lack of work is starting to really put me out of the mood to create amazing things.  

I did make a cake for Carey's Birthday. She's....35....  I made her a pink and Green Vanilla cake that was fairly light and moist, It had a light Chocolate Butter cream icing and strawberries and cherries in the middle. I didn't personally like it except the fun colors. 

I made a Lasagna the next night. I even made the noodles. Except the noodles turned to mush in the lasagna so I really didn't like it but the Garlic Bread Sticks I made were gobbled up.    Nothing amazing. I think one night I fed him Chili Dogs...

Tonight I am trying this baked potatoes I saw Online. Cutting into them but not all the way through, drizzling with oil, salt and pepper But so far the pan they are is burnt and making the house smokey. I fully admit I'm making potatoes, eggs and bacon because everyone likes bacon.

I've been trying to walk more.... And i've done alright.   I aim to walk to the new hospital and around

One day I walked for 70 minutes! then the next I helped Anita change a bunch of Signs... I concluded that to be enough. Then the next I walked for 45 mins,  Today I didn't walk a lot yet... it's still early. I may go for a night stroll.

But I've been bringing Taz with me, He loves it at the beginning but by the time we're heading back, he's really starting to drag. Spends more time sniffing stuff, refusing to move from the said sniffing spot and attempting to mark more things even though he's run Dry. Lol.  It Kinda drives me nuts but I feel bad if I don't bring along. 

when I go out when I get home, he is always curled up in front of the door. In fact alot of the times he gets whacked with the door because he doesn't hear us coming and I kinda forget that he likes to chill there waiting for us to return.

For Most people who know me. They know I'm not really friendly. Sure I'm a open book. I'd tell anyone my Stories. But getting me there takes a bit of time and patience. 
 Most people Also know I'm not close with my family.  I've always considered my self the black sheep. I just never felt like I fit in so instead of trying to fit in. I mingle at the edge.
I rarely talk to my sister or brother on the phone. Though I do randomly see them.I do wish I got to see them more often but Life really gets in the way. Work likes to keep me busy every weekend and when I'm free they are not.  
 I Also randomly talk to my mother. Sometimes twice a month.
I see my Aunt M and my grandmother on holidays and that's it, I admit when I do see them, we don't even say Much. Though my Aunt M was great when I was a kid.
I see my Aunt D at the end of the summer but I wish I got to see her more often. we keep meaning to get visit them at her farm but life really gets in the way sometimes. 
My Aunt C, I have not seen in years. I don't actually remember the last time i saw her... But we communicate randomly on email...
The people I see most are John's Parents.  They are a big part of John's Life so they are a big part of mine. and i adore them. They rock. and they rave over my food like it's the best thing in the world So I get a lot of ego Boosts. lol

Baking Pro Or baking Disaster?

I seriously just made a cake that tastes just like out of the Box. Insanely Moist and Rich and Omg. Cake heaven... I know I'm tooting my own horn but I personally think it's the best I've ever made. It's almost black instead of that Nice Brown.... Have I mentioned I'm Melting in Pleasure here?
John had two Pieces... Not that its saying anything because he usually has seconds but I was on the phone and generally ignoring him. He was following me round with his empty plate with huge puppy eyes.   mmmm I wonder what he'd do to get thirds? ;)
I had some minor issues with it though. As usual I kind of went off and did my own thing. and well lets just say my oven started on Fire. It was kind of fun. I opened all the windows and put a coat on and was trying to get the smoke out before my Love got home.
One of the things that made it so moist, I think was the coffee. I used a cup of Fresh Brewed Kicking Horse Coffee. After brewing it, I stuck it in a pot and added 4 to 6 oz... Okay I didnt measure... Of Dark milk Chocolate. And Melted it in....   The batter alone was so Good. I licked the spatula/bowl clean before I remembered I hadn't even put it in the oven yet.
Though this cake didnt seem to like me. It didn't go Up. it didn't rise at all. Instead of going up it went over the sides of the pans onto the bottom of the oven.    Then at Lunch John thought it looked horrible but he certainly fell in love with it after the first bite.

Today I get to Clean my oven. There is batter burnt on the racks and the bottom.  And since I'm writing this it seems I'm avoiding it...

Yesterday John and I went out and picked up all the Magnet signs that had fallen over in the horrible wind yesterday.  Three had fallen in total. I had four cement blocks that Anita had forgotten so I used those. One sign got two and the other two signs got one cement block and some very Big Rocks tossed on, in hopes of keeping them up.  Lucky it was fairly warm out, Just extremely Windy.

On Friday I have a interview at olysky which is with Big Sky(Pig Farm) Not really sure how I managed to get the interview because I hardly have any experience. They want someone to do data entry and filing and junk. The title was feed assistant but it's a office job. Weird .  I need to use Excel which I have not used since grade 12 and what not.  But I did write a very Confident Cover Letter. lol On Friday I hope to hand in my resume at the Mr. Ribs that is supposed to be taking over at where Chick Allan's Was.
On that Note. I have heard nothing from Steve or Bev.  I am very disappointed. I had really hoped they would find something soon but at the same time I worry that Steve may still be holding anger toward me for leaving. and for all I know he might not hire me back at all....    But that could just be my paranoia working over time which it does. Often.

Blog Much.?

 
A Link to My >>>>>LAST BLOG<<<<         Okay, I know I've been Blogging alot lately but I really don't have much else to do.
I submitted my resumes to places that I might be able to work at, and a couple that I know is a stretch...
I applied for Unemployment. I did it wrong but I still did it.  For some odd reason, it didn't seem to click into my head that 52 weeks is actually a year until after I got home. Opps.
I've done multi loads of laundry, I've washed the dog,  I've hidden junk into the basement and
spending a insane amount of time learning about random junk on the internet that I find interesting,
 the Beginning of the week, I tried my first attempt at Refried beans that ended wonderfully. Yum!  The Pork and refried bean Quesadillas were great with Chipotle mayo.  I made a small batch of Perogies but the dough was a tad weird so they look extra funky but tasted amazing. The Bread was successful though as usual my John hates the flax.  I even made a healthy version of my Favorite meat Pie. I made a ton of Mini Ones and froze them for later Yummy Meals. I made the Crust with brown flour and flax... Again John wasn't very Happy about the flax. Though the weird thing about the day I made them. I started to Text John's parents, I was thinking of inviting them to supper thinking his mother would Enjoy them but I deleted the text after I started to describe what was in them...! I figured John's father wouldn't like them because of the large amount of healthy things in them. Carrots, spinach and flax.

                  One day I wasted a large amount of time soaking in the bathtub with a book and a can of Coke, But I did manage to Create a Yummy healthy supper!. Carribean Shrimp Rice Bowl. A creamy tomato based sauce with a hint of coconut and a flint of heat and mingling flavors of Lime and Mango.    
I've never had success with Cooking rice at home, it's always really Mushy. and well Im not really a fan of rice in the beginning but it gives something else to eat that is fairly cheap and not always potatoes. I tire of potatoes quit easily.   I've always just bought plain Brown Rice, the same as what my mother always made us eat when I was in my final years of High School. Since I'm not a big fan of it, I never serve it just plain jane. I always jazz it up. The last time I served Rice. I made it Mexican stylish.. Kidney beans, tomato, cumin. Yum.  On a side note. has anyone else noticed my insane addiction to Mexican foods.
Anyways. recently as I bought groceries, I stopped and looked at all the different types of Rices and decided since my rice never works well anyways, I'd try a new type. Still brown but I got basmati which claims its ideal for Curries. Anyways and it actually Cooked up right. it wasn't mushy, It wasn't hard and i didn't have to drain any water off. I was pretty excited. I almost just served it plain because I was So Happy.  ( I know happy bout Rice *shrugs*)

               The other day I attempted to make Tomato Paste. I know such a simple sounding thing. But I've never made it. I've always bought those little dinky cans of paste then frozen the amount I;ve never used.  But hey I got time and I'm not a fan of the preservatives that are in them so Hey Hoe! Lets Go! I googled and googled to great Lengths. Some are just tomatoes that have been peeled and seeded with salt. Some are whole tomatoes and onion and more salt. with a hint of lemon...  |
So I'm taking whole tomatoes chopped up. Sticking those bad boys in a Pot and setting it on 1. So it's Hott and you can see the steam and make the house smell like I'm making something amazing. But they don't Boil... now I let them Do that.... for at least eight hours.... That's it. I had to randomly stir. and evertually I stuck them into the blender and went to town on them. So they are smooth and not a single seed remains.. As they simmer, they should break down the skins that I left on and the color will darken and the tomato flavor will start to enhance as it thickens and thickens some more.    They Turned out Wonderful. I froze them in ice cube trays then moved them into a baggy. One is perfect amount to toss into anything!

I recently tried making Boston Baked beans. John's parents really enjoyed them and well I found them disgusting.  I may try a tomato based baked beans sometime but the first batch really put me off it. I always loved canned beans... But oh well.

    John invited a couple over. A guy he met at work and his women...  And you know me. I always seem to aim to impress.  So I've been trying to think of the perfect things to have set out.     My Mini Meat Pies with a marania dipping sauce, maybe cheese, meat with Crackers?  Carmel Corn...  I will wow them with my crazy awesome Foods... Hopefully.

I had to take my lovely computer into future shop yet again. they gave me a loaner. Two More times and they will give me a brand new computer. I look forward to it because my computer is driving me mad.

I Love my Bed..

            To Read my Last Entry. Click    ---> HERE<----
I really do Love my bed! Sometimes I hide under the covers and just lay there and Dream! Or I watch hours of Netflix, or cuddle down in the warmth and read endless stories and of Course I sleep,,, A lot. 
Have I ever really said that when I worked at chick Allan's, I mostly worked afternoon? I'm almost always in bed until 10:00 am. sometimes later if I stayed up past 2 am,  
Since John now has a job, We're in bed at a acceptable time because I fully admit when he wasn't working, we'd stay up late but when he has to be up at 6:45, We're usually turning off the light around 11:00/11:30.   Then when he gets up, I wake up and then fall back to sleep after he's left.  

Christmas is finally behind us! and I think everyone enjoyed their presents. John's mother loved her owl measuring cups and Doctor who shirt, While Jake was pretty happy about his straight Razors with all the little things with it. Brendan loved his whiskey. Bailee and Lucas could really care less with what I gave them. but My sister loves it.  she and Brendan are going to go to Saskatoon together while I have a Movie night with the kids. Though I did it because I didn't have money and i figured I could plan it out to when I did have some money so I could spoil them with Pizza, slurpees and a rental movie. but my sister wants it before the 13th.  And Money has been tight.. I haven't gotten to pay Decembers bills yet even but I will make it work somehow. 
I got some interesting things. Halo Risk( we can't understand the rules so we haven't played) Futurama Monoplay( I won) Two Lovely Prisims, A bird feeder, Chocolate!, Froggie Grip things for the tub, Etc.
Have I mentioned I <3 My Love's Family. They're So Good to me.

I think I got over ambitious the other day. I mixed up Dough and filling for perogies. but ended up sticking it in the fridge and stuck it in the fridge and haven't finished it yet. I always got out Beef to make mini Meat tarts and haven't done that even but we did make Fresh Pasta and freeze so we can enjoy it three more times. I've also made Fresh Flax Bread which rose really well but has a large bubble... I think i didn't punch my dough down well enough in the first rising. As I waited for my bread to rise, I simmered Dried beans on the stove and turned them into Refried Beans! which are insanely yummy, somewhat healthy and just down right delicious!
Tonight I'll be making up some Fresh Tortillas and making Cheesy Pork and refried bean Quesadillas. with a nice Spicy Chipotle Sauce!

I am still unsure on what I shall do. I know I don't really want to work in the local restaurants. Rookies(BV) has a temperamental and unfriendly atmosphere while Johnny's Bistro(Pioneer) is dirty.  And well. Big Lou's is just disgusting, on a Second note. Did you know you Can Check out the Health Inspection of each restaurant in Town!  Link  It will tell you the issues that they have. One Restaurant has a issue with rodents while a few have troubles with being kept Clean!
  I  have applied at Co-op, ware house one, Sobeys, Rona and a few other places. A couple only offer part time work and minimum wage.
I regret applying at sobey's because he told me that if I was hired, I would have to remove all visible piercings... all 20 of them.  and I'm not sure if I am willing to do that. I adore my piercings and feel like they really help me show who I am on the inside.  

It is New Year's Eve. This is the Rare time that I've actually had it off.  for the Past 8 years I have worked til 11:00ish.   Last year I sat and had a drink with My love and his mother.  This year My love and I are staying home, Enjoying some shrimp cocktails and drinking some spiced Rum with Coke.
We were supposed to go out with my friend Shaun but he was a no show. Im kind of worried about him actually. Last I talked to him he was driving home from Saskatoon... Hopefully he got home just fine.  
I don't make new year revolutions because never once in the past have I stuck to them so I don't do it anymore. I mostly just think of the New Adventures that I'll maybe get to Experience.

Though Remember How I talked about Making Mozza in my last Post. I've been learning about Rennet which is enzymes from a baby calfs stomach.(eww) They know use ones 

that are grown in labs. But you can also make it yourself using plants! Which I find kind of 

interesting and I shall be trying it. One that is best for soft cheese like ricotta and cottage 

cheese is the stinging Nettle? which I've never heard of but probly seen. Then Purple

thistle which I do know, So This summer I will Try to make a plant Rennet!

K my text is acting all Funny. So I'm taking it as a sign that I need to go now. 
Laters 

Unemployed

          Chick Allan's is closing today.  Tonight when I'm done my shift. It will be my last.   
As much as I complained sometimes, I really enjoyed working there.... Minus Steve.  And it was my life. Yes at one point I strayed away. I needed a change... A Break to make sure I was where I needed to be. While I was away, I thought of chick Allan's constantly.  And when I went back, It was wonderful, Almost Like I had never even left! except the fact I got down graded to closing every night but I could handle that.   I worked there since May 2006.  There were up and downs.  
The first one I remember was when Shannon announced she was selling. I told her at some point i was going to start applying at different places and she asked how I could ever consider leaving her and I told her she was leaving us so how was it different?  
 I have no clue what I shall do next.  Where I'll go.  The only thing I've really done so far is apply at the co-op grocery store. I have no clue where else I'll apply either. I constantly question if I will be Happy there?


      On other news We are into our new to us Place. It's a actual House! Newer stuff except it looks ghetto on the outside but the Landlord will be putting new siding on it this Summer and I'm hoping to build a deck on the back.   All the boxes are unpacked.... Mostly. a few I have no clue where to put.  Yesterday I hung all my Beautiful Prisms. Unfortunately my new to me house only has one Window that is perfect to create a million Rainbows. And the worst part it's Small.   and the most horrible part. the trees and the house beside my place. Block it off pretty quick but I have rainbows for a bit in the afternoon.My Living room window is large and in the morning it gets enough Sun that I could hang some. But from 9 to 11:00ish. there are rainbows...But who wakes up that early? Lol .All in all, I get rainbows for a bit. once in the morning and once in the evening.
But when John is putting windows into the trailer. I'm going to have windows on both sides and make sure we park in the best spot so I can have rainbows always.  
I really don't know what it is about Rainbows but even when I'm feeling down. Fill a room with little rainbows floating around and any unhappiness is gone for that time. And I just sit in awe of how beautiful it is. I forget every single worry and problem may I have for that short time. 

        I've given up buying bread. I've been making Flax bread. I do have a issue with my loaves not  turning out really big but they are tasty and I love the crunch of Flax.  they are still light and fluffy. I have a knife with a guide on the side so I even Cut them Straight! :o.
Though I have recently been reading that Flax isn't a super Food like it was once believed to be. I will look into soon

        My next project is making my own Laundry Detergent(Did I mention my new to me washer is insanely old and doesn't give the option for cold water! ) and dishwasher detergent.
The website claims that it will equal about 4 Cents a load for the laundry and 3 cents for the dish washer.  Which I find just amazing. It's good for sensitive skin as well.  I just have to get money to get the ingredients.   Oh and by the way, I attached Links.
I already make my own cleaners so why not keep up all the DIY's. :)
I have also been reading about home made mozza cheese. I am very interested in and may attempt that but It is undecided still. I think it would be nifty to serve a lasagna that I made everything from scratch.  Home made noodles. with a layer of homemade cottage cheese or link , topped with fresh made meat sauce and Fresh mozza. Dreamy! 

     John's Uncle Scott came for a visit. He is from Ontario but his semi Truck broke down in Saskatoon. He got to try out the Pull Out sofa that we got when we moved in.  I never remembered to actually feed him Lunch ever... I offered him breakfast when I got up but by Noon, I'm thinking about work or something already at work. Where I have Soup.....and Bacon for my first meal of the day.  Then I'd make supper at 9:30. I think he prolly thought us odd.   I made some good stuff. 
Fruit stuffed Pork chops with a berry Glaze, Stuffed Yorkies( Pulled Beef, creamy horseradish topped with Gravy) and the best one Beef Enchildas( From scratch enchilda sauce, tortillas and yum)
          Christmas is almost here! 3 more days. My love has let me shake all my presents! But I remain clue less on what he has gotten me other then random hints he has dropped trying to get me to give up the information of what I've gotten him. 
I had tried to get him a bass for Christmas but the deal fell through. Maybe for his Birthday.?  
I have finished shopping almost. I don't have anything for the Children though. I might end up getting them some Candy. 
The things I ordered back in November finally arrived. I pick them up on Monday. I was getting very anxious that they wouldn't be here on time. Though there is a mysterious package that I am unsure on what it is. but knowing me i did order it and forgot i had ordered it. 

           I know I talked myself Silly about the Benefits of Honey and i still hold to it But I just can't get into using it for Shampoo! I tried it twice. I missed the Bubbles. My hair felt clean but it looked  greasy and dull. No Shine or anything. All the sites claim after a few months your hair will look amazing but I don't think I can do it. 
I have issues with my home made tooth paste . It tastes Great and my mouth feels sparkly clean But I am worried its not doing all it should because we ended up adding alot of Honey. Let me expand on that a little.   The recipe we made consisted of Coconut oil, baking soda, peppermint and honey. Coconut oil is amazing, heals, whitens, cleans. Baking soda is the grit that helps get rid of the stuff stuck to your teeth, peppermint for flavor and honey which is always beyond amazing to sweeten it and help with antibacterial(blah, blah,blah) cause if you've never tasted straight baking soda. it's gross. Pure salt. and it seems John and I can't handle saltly. So it feels like whole thing is Honey.  it doesn't do what normal tooth paste does. it doens't bubble and I msis it. So I tend to go back to my normal tooth pasta a little to often. 
I still wash my face with Honey. I love it. My face feels so Insanely Clean when I'm done.
I do use coconut oil still randomly but after I put it on my legs, I can't get dressed right away or lay on the bed or it gets stuff greasy and my face stays shiney to long and I'm not a huge fan.

In going non processed foods. I've been trying to lay off buying tomato sauce. 
So many recipes call for it. and I use it as a base for most of my sauces including my gravy. Last month I tried to make my own. and it tasted good. Then i froze it. It didn't freeze well.  
I could use tomato paste as a base for a lot of things as well So I will attempt tomato paste next.   After I Find the perfect combo of recipes to try.
I
Though I made up a huge batch of honey Mustard sauce that should last my Love at least two months if I'm Lucky. 
I've written to Much while still having alot to say. But that's just how I roll it Seems.
Merry Christmas for those that celebrate.

It's been a stressful time recently. John hasn't been working and since Boston Pizza has opened, It's been slow at work so I've been getting more part time hours. Trying to pay for anything on a part time wage is hard.   It seems as soon as money is in my account, it's gone the same day to pay for Bills and rent. It's dumb.
John wants a job that will let him come home every Night which I'm all for because I Love having him home. I hate when he is away. The House is Creepy and I miss cuddles a lot.Among other things ;)  But finding that job seems to be tough. I'm not sure where he has applied, I just know that he doesn't have a job yet. He will find a job soon I'm sure of it. I have faith. <3

    About two Weeks before Boston Pizza was officially open they had, Test Nights. Practicing for the big day. So two weeks before they opened, we started to Slow down. The day they opened. It was completely dead. It's Like when Big Lou's Open. Everyone wanted to try it. Then they found out how horrible it was and came back.  Even I get sucked into wanting to try the new things when they come to town. I remember going there for my second date with "The Virgin" before I met john. The meal was horrible.  we got there at 8:15 and they gave us a dirty look and said they were getting ready to close but seated us anyways.   He had Chicken Fingers, fries and salad. I had A chicken parm, Fries and soup to start. The Soup was tomato broth with frozen vegetables tossed in. Before we even finished our Sad starters, Our Meals arrived My Parm which had been deep fried was raw on the inside.  but since it was a second date, I said nothing, I just cut it up and pushed it round on my plate.    I later found out that's all the virgin actually ate was pizza from Big Lou's and insane amounts of Pepsi. He thought it was amazing but I tasted his mothers cooking. I realized he didn;t know what real food was.    Anyways back to where I Started. Boston Pizza. John and I went there as a treat after changing 6 signs in One day then freezing our Butts off picking up two other ones a few days later.
Starter Ceaser, Pizza Rolls, Calamari, Spinach Dip and panera(sp) bread. At one point she asked how we liked the pizza rolls because she never tried them and I replied over processed. I think she has no clue what processed even meant because she took that as a good thing. But Later as we paid the bill she asked how everything was and I said Fine and she questioned why i said fine. I said I cooked better.She was offended. john said I was being rude. but If you question it and don't actually want to know. Don't ask.!

   Things have been stressful because as of December 22, Chick Allan's is closing and steve has no answer of if we will be opening in the new year. He promised that I would have work til almost the end of December. There is packing to do. A lot of it. It will be moved into storage but hopefully soon he will tell us the staff, What happens. Some staff has no clue we're closing, Some know what is happening but it doesn't seem to Click that they may be jobless before to long.  But even if he finds a new place to open at, It will be a couple months before he opens. Every one will be laid off but he claims he has a plan for the main staff(4). I pray often that we will reopen. Chick Allan's has been my life since 2006 minus 3-4 months when i went off to B.C/Alberta.

Christmas is sneaking up and fast which is unfortunate because with lack of money, It's hard to get the gifts I'd like for people. I got great things for John and his Mother. Things I know they will Love. I ordered everything online in November. Nothing has arrived yet!!!! John has gotten the gifts he ordered already. So where the F%$#@ are mine!
I have yet to buy a gift for John's father and for Brendan. But I know what im getting his dad but Im clue less on what to get Brendan.
