At 9:45 this morning...

I am SO happy and SO relieved!!!



I think I will have a great weekend!!!!!!

Random Thursday

• I have not been writing a lot lately! I feel lazy, I guess, and I just want to read other people blogs!

• Yesterday, I had to go to the optometrist because I have an eye infection and it hurts so badly! But I got an antibiotic cream and it helps! So I won't be around a lot in the following days, my eye has to rest!

• Monday is going to be a BIG day for me, more on that later! Just send good vibes please!

• The boyfriend was in Montréal for work all week long and I miss him! He will be back soon and we will finally get our Christmas tree! It's about time!!!

• I was in Québec city last weekend and it was like the good old days! I miss living there!

• Yesterday, my mom bought me a sweater and socks and it totally made my day!

• It's snowing right now and I have to shovel!

How are you? Anything random to say?

At 6:30 this morning...

I was outside shoveling a lot of snow!!! It snowed a lot over the night (about 35 cm) and it's still snowing right now! I have shoveled for an hour and a hour later, you can't tell I have done anything! Crazy! I guess I don't need to workout today, shoveling is a real workout, my arms are so sore! It really feels like winter!

This week is a short week because on Thursday, after lunch, we are heading to Québec city for the weekend! My boyfriend has an appointment for a MRI in a private clinic on Friday and this is why we are going to Québec. Here, getting an appointment for a MRI at the local hospital takes about 6-8 months (though it's free, thank you Canada health system)! Because he is going to a private clinic (it took him only one week to book an appointment there!), he will have to pay for the MRI, but insurance will pay back 75% of the cost! So that's not too bad! We will be staying at his cousin's house and we are also going to do a lot of shopping! I really miss those big malls!!!

So, this is our Menu for this week, we are keeping it pretty simple:

Monday: Tacos
Tuesday: Spaghetti and salad
Wednesday: Spring rolls and chinese noodles
Thursday: Subway (on the road)
Friday: Surprise meal at B's cousin

So, what are you cooking this week?

Friday Confessions

• I confess that I can't help but be jealous of people who seem to have everything.

• I confess that I want to buy every Essie nail polish.

• I confess that I'm having a hard time working out these days! No motivation!

• I confess that I don't like to go to the grocery store the weekend because there is too much people and I hate it! I hate to do small talk with people (acquaintances) I have not seen in a long time.

• I confess that I love to eat cereals for dinner. And for lunch. And for breakfast. Is that too much?!

What are you confessions?
Happy weekend!

Random Thursday

• I don't have much to say!

• I feel really tired!

• We are going for a weekend trip to Québec city in two weeks and I can't wait! I miss my university town so much!

• I want to put Christmas decorations!

• I want to buy everything on Sephora website. But it's so expensive and I'm on a budget!

• I have sent many resumes but no one has called me yet. Depressing. Really.

• I want to have a cat. But I can't because the boyfriend is really allergic. Sad.

That's all for today!
