Shirley Ann’s Imagination…

Holy freaking brrrrr I miss summer! No more are the days of wearing my skorts and sandals and flip flops! Now I am huddling in jeans, socks, shoes and a zip up hoody where ever I go… Alas, fall is upon us and winter is creeping into our veins ever so slowly on these cold days and bone chilling nights…

I am now officially older than dirt… Hmmm how old is dirt anyways? Sept 16th has come and gone and I lived to tell about it! The big 3-0, seems like yesterday I was just starting my 20’s and a whole new life ahead of me. Where oh where did the time go… Oh yea, I was married, that’s where it went lol…

Speaking of married, I also had another big day on Sept 22nd! It was my “Happy First Un-Anniversary To Me” day! It would of been our 7th wedding anniversary and 10th anniversary of being together. Some warned me the day would be super hard and depressing. Honestly, I was ok. Yes it crossed my mind and no I wasn’t dancing in the streets, it was just another long day to get through and I sailed through with flying colors.

I am back in physio after a long pause. I had to push to get back in. Having me sit idle is not going to heal my disks. A long term physio routine is the only way to heal my disks and nerve damage. So with the help of my specialist, family doctor and occupational therapist I got re-approved to go back to physio. Fingers crossed that they leave me in this time and let me make the progress I desperately need! I am soooooooooo tired of never ending pain and restrictions…

I am still a lost soul with no camera… The court case for the girl whom stole it was bumped until tomorrow, October 8th. Waiting anxiously to see the outcome of that. I am so lost without my camera… Now that fall is here and I have so many photos I want to take, I am angry at myself and her that I have no camera. Why on earth did I ever agree to drive them to the store. If I wasn’t such a push over softie and had of said no, I’d still have a camera… !@#$%^& Sigh… Live and learn I guess… :(

Our house is still for sale… Got some promising news tonight that someone is very very interested in it. Cross everything you have that they put forth an offer on it. We so desperately need some good news right now on it, as it is financially sinking us both… That would be one major stress relief if we signed the dotted line to sell it. We’d be dancing in the streets then! :)
I will keep you posted if I hear more. Please please please buy my house mr nice man ;)

My little car is still hanging in there, despite the fact the struts are gone on it and it needs some other tlc… I highly doubt it’s going to pass inspection though, so I have to mentally and financially prepare for the process of car hunting. Mentally I can prepare but financially is the panicing factor! Eeeeeeks…. Deep breath….

Leanne had her beautiful baby boy Jacob on September 9th~!~ He is already growing like a bad weed and is a little clone of his Daddy ;) Congratulations Leanne & Mike!!! You are wonderful parents :)

I am still living the single life… Had a few opportunities to enter a relationship with a few people, but I had no choice but to decline and just remain good friends. I am enjoying single life too much, I like it’s freedom and opportunities and less headaches. If the right person comes along I’d jump at the chance, but haven’t found that person yet and I refuse to settle or jump into something just for the sake of not being alone. So for now I continue on the path I’ve chosen and just hang on for the ride, it’s not all bad ;)

I am going to run for now… Time to start thinking about what’s for supper. Until next time!

I’ve been receiving some hate mail…err I mean fan mail asking me to write an update ;) So I guess I will oblige the masses and sit still long enough to write out a few thoughts! Sit back and enjoy my crazy ramblings…

Well… I guess the biggest news I can give you is that I am cameraless! A person tries to be nice and does someone a favor and ends up getting screwed! I can’t go into a lot of details on here, but suffice to say I gave 2 girls a short drive. I knew of one of them 2nd hand through other people, so when she asked for a quick drive, I was put rather on the spot and me being the softie I am said ok. She brought along another friend whom I did not know. It is a long story that will be saved for the court room, but this friend of hers proceeded to steal my camera as she left the car.

Soooooo in the past 3+ weeks I have spent all my spare time chasing these two girls around, tracking them down, trying to get word out about my camera in the underworld to see if I could prevent her from selling it. It turns out these two girls have a serious drug habit, and my camera was intended to be sold for drugs and or drug money. There were warrants out for their arrests, however police wise I didn’t get much assistance. I ended finding them myself one by one, getting their hiding places uncovered and got them both arrested last weekend, one on saturday night one monday afternoon.

It was a lot of hard work and tons of networking with people I had never met before, but if they get what they deserve it’ll all be worth it. In the end she did manage to unload the camera, but I was thrilled to find out she had a hell of a time doing so because no one wanted to buy it because I had so much heat on the camera!

She picked the wrong gal to steal from! That camera was like my baby!!! I am lost without it, thus I am mad as hell… The one who bolted with my camera goes to court to enter a plea September 24th. Chances are she won’t even show up… So until my house sells I cannot afford to replace my camera. I am not happy!!!

Our house is still on the market… We had someone try to buy it, but their financing fell through, which was a huge dissapointment for us both… Haven’t had much correspondance with the real estate agent lately, Chris is getting rather antsy, so I think he is going to call him next week.

My little car the could, is still chugging, but the struts are gone, the transmission is slipping and I say it is only a matter of time before it bites the biscuit! I don’t know what I will do without it, it is my life line and I cannot afford to get another one any time soon! Blah…

Living at home is going so so… We butted heads a few times since I moved home, all because they weren’t used to or accustomed to my social life and hours that I keep. They weren’t accepting that I was never home except to sleep. Since we last butted heads in mid July it’s been calm. I think I made my point to them that I appreciate their concern for my social life, but I am not going to change who I spend my time with and where and when for them. I am my own person and can make my own choices.

So all in all my parents don’t see me much, 30 minutes a day if they are lucky, some days not at all… When I wake up, they are gone to work. When they get home from work I am already long gone or just getting ready to leave for the night. When I get home they are in bed sleeping. Rince, cycle and repeat day in and day out! So all in all if it wasn’t for my stuff being here, they hardly know I live here :P

I will soon be turning the big 3-0 on September 16th. I’m living the last of my 20’s! I plan on going out September 13th which is a Saturday to the Heritage to hang out with some friends and listen to some music as a pre-birthday celebration. Any of my friends are welcome to come! We’ll be landing at the Heritage around 11:30pm, come one come all :) I’ll make a facebook group for it just for fun!

Well I must go for now. I need to get my beauty sleep. My cousin Leanne is over due for her first baby to be born! The lil bambino is 5 days late now! I’m awaiting a call to go to the hospital :P Any time now we hope! :) I’ll keep ya’s posted! Nite!

Hello hello… Is anyone else as tired of crappy rainy weather as I am?? Seriously!!! Where on earth did the little bit of summer we had go? How depressing!!! :( I hope it comes back, but I have my doubts…

Life has been slowing down a bit… I am still never home except to shower, sometimes eat on the fly and sleep. For a month and a half or so I was keeping super busy, I had made a new friend, was hanging around with him from the time I got up until I went to bed essentially. We’d hang out down town with the other friends I met through him. Was great company and helped pass the days and evenings. I no longer hang out with him any more so the days and evenings are a bit longer and quieter now.

It just got too complicated with him… We were just friends, not dating, but he started acting like a jealous boyfriend around me and other guys. It got to the point where answering my cell phone was tension waiting to happen if it was a guy calling. He started voicing his opinion way too loudly on 2 guys he didn’t want me to be around. It all got to be too much for me. I quickly realized he was too attached to me, too possessive, too jealous, too controlling.

He wanted more than I was willing to give. I do not want a relationship with him or anyone right now. I want to be single and have fun and not have to answer to anyone but me… He couldn’t handle that so, I no longer hang out with him. It was very hard on him, and I didn’t enjoy doing it myself, it got rather ugly towards the end but I knew I was making the right decision. We still see each other and say hello, etc because we do hang around the same friends. However it will never be the friendship it once was.

Who knew single life could be so difficult :P The joys of it all… So now that I’m minus a side kick things have been quieter. I have been hanging out with someone else a fair bit, so that helps. I just find time can be too quiet and lonely by times, so I like to keep busy. Many a times you can find me sitting alone in my car, parked watching traffic, listening to my mp3 player and in deep thought for hours upon hours… Exciting life I lead isn’t it? :P Haha!

I am still fighting a post op infection. Turns out it was not bladder related at all as I feared… Soooo long story short they think my uterus and ovary are infected on the right side. I’m on some serious antibiotics and pain pills to combat it. Next wednesday I go for an ultrasound to check things out on the big screen. Joy oh bliss!!! Always something…

Back wise I’m still in a lot of pain and I am getting pretty frustrated… I got some minor relief from the spinal injections but not enough for me to do back flips of joy. I am in physio again and will be going back to the specialist on September 3rd.

Well that’s it that’s all for now… Stay tuned to my oh so exciting life :P
