i've been sick.
i've been tired.
i've been sick and tired of being sick and tired.

feeling a little better today. i think my body is fighting back. i've been "going, going, gone" for so long...i rested all last weekend. it was nice.

so i got a cell phone finally! yay! loving it already.

i've been metally preparing myself to jump into the scrapbook for jeff and kelly's wedding. i couldn't sleep last night so i started planning it out...papers, accents, layout ideas. it was nice even just to think about it. i've missed scrapbooking so much! i can't wait to get started. who know when that will be, but at least i have a plan!

a woman with a plan...and a mission.

a woman of action. :)

The perfect end to the summer....

this past weekend chris, jen, and i met up with jeff, kelly and katie in kelowna. it was a beautiful day...perfect weather and good company. things kind of started off a little rocky. it was the first time my best friend met my boyfriend. things didn't really go as smoothly and i had hoped. kelly says that she just has higher standards for me. but in the end she said... "shaina, he makes you laugh...what more could i ask for?" so true kell....

we camped at a little campground called the owl's nest. it was really nice. we were the only ones stupid enough to be in tents (yes, it was freezing!!) so we had the whole section to ourselves. we had a big bon-fire down by the beach. it was so nice. chris brought his guitar, so he played for us and we made smores and talked and sang songs. made some good memories.

chris bought me john mayer's new cd in kelwona at the mall. i am LOVING it. smooth jazzy music with his amazing voice. on repeat in my car. :)

well, that's all that's new really. work is being stupid right now. i'm just back from all this training and its like i'm expected to be the best sales person in the world. having a hard time with all the pressure. i've been really stressed out about that and a lot of other things. i think my body is fighting back now, because i've been sick the last couple of days. i didn't go to work yesterday and i stayed home from service this morning. i hope that i get better soon. all the sleeping that i did should do my body some good.

well, good night for now. :)
